The results show that the structure is an essential factor that affects degradation, andadded non-metallic elements help optimize the structure. The amorphous and balled-milled crystalline Fe7oSiloB2o hascomparative degradation efficiencies to MO with tl/2 values of 6.9 and 7.0 min, respectively. Increasing the boron contentcan create a favorable structure and promote degradation. The ball-milled crystalline Fe70B30 and Fe43.64B56.36 powdershave relatively short tl/2 values of 5.2 and 3.3 rain, respectively. The excellent properties are mainly attributed to theirheterogeneous structure with boron-doped active sites in ZVI. Composition segregation in the nanoscale range in anamorphous FeSiB alloy and small boron particles in the microscale range embedded in large iron particles prepared by ball-milling, both constitute effective galvanic cells that promote iron electron loss and therefore decompose organic chemicals.These findings may provide a new, highly efficient, low-cost commercial method for azo dye wastewater treatment usingZVI.展开更多

These specimens made from industrial test pieces were carburized in a powder pack for about two to five hours at a temperature of about 850?C - 950?C. The effects of austenitization and quenching are investigated on some specimens. Also the wear tests are performed by means of a pin-on-disc tribotester using roll bearing steel as the counterface material. The results indicate that by appropriate selection of process parameters, it is possible to obtain high wear resistance along with moderate toughness. It is concluded that surface treatments increases the wear resistance and performance of PM parts in service conditions. By increasing the role of PM in industry which resulted from their ability to produce the complex shapes, high production rate, and dimension accuracy of final products, they need to be heat treated. Carburizing method was selected as a surface hardening method for PM parts. Results of wear and hardness show considerable enhancement in mechanical properties of PM parts.展开更多

Here, it is demonstrated that the embrittled Fe-based MG can be reductilized and the coercivity can be further lowered through the rejuvenation of memory effect. The synchronous improvement in the plasticity and soft magnetic properties is attributed to the combination effects of releasing much residual stress, decreasing the magnetic anisotropy, and homogenizing the glasses during the rejuvenation process. The current work opens a new perspective to improve the properties of MGs by utilizing the memory effect and holds promising commercial application potential.展开更多

The formation regularities of the phases in as prepared powders and the structures of the nanometer particles were investigated. Pure Fe nanometer powders with about 70% γ Fe phase is prepared in present study by using the powder collector with good cooling effect. In the nanometer powders of Fe Ni alloy, solid solution phase γ (Fe,Ni) and α Fe phase form, but for Fe Cr alloys only solid solution phase α (Fe,Cr) forms. In the nanometer powders of Fe Cu alloy, only pure metal phases of γ Fe and Cu form, and no compound or solid solution phase exists. The formation regularity of the phases in the nanometer powders of alloys obeys the common phase laws in bulk alloy state.展开更多

The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.展开更多

文摘Gas atomization is now an important production technique for Fe-based amorphous alloy powders used in additive manufacturing,particularly selective laser melting,fabricating large-sized Fe-based bulk metallic glasses.Using the realizable k-εmodel and discrete phase model theory,the flow dynamics of the gas phase and gas-melt two-phase flow felds in the close-wake condition were investigated to establish the correlation between high gas pressure and powder particle characteristics.The locations of the recirculation zones and the shapes of Mach disks were analyzed in detail for the type of discrete-jet closed-coupled gas atomization nozzle.In the gas-phase flow feld,the vortexes,closed to the Mach disk,are found to be a new deceleration method.In the two-phase flow feld,the shape of Mach disk changes from“S”-shape to“Z”-shape under the impact of the droplet flow.As predicted by the wave model,with the elevation of gas pressure,the size of the particle is found to gradually decrease and its distribution becomes more concentrated.Simulation results were compliant with the Fe-based amorphous alloy powder preparation tests.This study deepens the understanding of the gas pressure impacting particle features via gas atomization,and contributes to technological applications.

文摘Fe-based metallic glasses have garnered significant attention due to their low coercivity force and core loss.Enhancing the saturation magnetic flux density(Bs)of Fe-based metallic glasses is crucial for their industry applications.This work constructed a dataset comprising330 training data and 157 test data.The support vector regression model surpassed the tree-based ensemble models in the test set and demonstrated comparable accuracy to the tree-based ensemble models in the training set.Additionally,we proposed an indicator for Bsbased on symbolic regression.This newly proposed indicator exhibits a Pearson correlation coefficient exceeding 0.92 with Bs.The present work provides a simple and accurate formula for predicting the Bsof Fe-based amorphous alloys,demonstrating the effectiveness of machine learning approaches in discovering novel soft magnetic materials.
文摘This paper presents the results of a study concerned with the surface hardening of Fe-based alloys and WC-8Co cemented carbide by inte- grating laser cladding and the electrospark deposition processes. Specimens of low carbon steel were processed firstly by laser cladding with Fe-based alloy powders and then by electrospark deposition with WC-SCo cemented carbide. It is shown that, for these two treatments, the electrospark coating possesses finer microstructure than the laser coating, and the thickness and surface hardness of the electrospark coating can be substantially increased.

文摘In this study,a few Fe-based amorphous matrix composite coatings reinforced with various portions(4,8 and16 vol.%) of 31 6L stainless steel powders have been successfully produced through high velocity oxy-fuel(HVOF) spraying.The microstructure of the composite coatings was systematically characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).The main structure of composite coatings remained amorphous while 31 6L stainless steel splats were distributed homogeneously in the amorphous matrix and well connected with surrounding amorphous phase.Bonding strength of coatings to the substrate was determined by 'pull-off' tensile tests.The results revealed that the31 6L stainless steel phase effectively improved the bonding strength of amorphous coatings,which is mainly contributed by the strong metallurgical bonding between stainless steel and amorphous splats.The addition of31 6L stainless steel also enhanced the ductility and fracture resistance of the coatings due to the ductile stainless steel phases,which can arrest crack propagation and increase energy dissipation.
文摘A serials of Fe based nanometer powders were fabricated by reduced pressure gas evaporation process with induction current as the heating source. The formation regularities of the phases in as prepared powders and the structures of the nanometer particles were investigated. Pure Fe nanometer powders with about 70% γ Fe phase is prepared in present study by using the powder collector with good cooling effect. In the nanometer powders of Fe Ni alloy, solid solution phase γ (Fe,Ni) and α Fe phase form, but for Fe Cr alloys only solid solution phase α (Fe,Cr) forms. In the nanometer powders of Fe Cu alloy, only pure metal phases of γ Fe and Cu form, and no compound or solid solution phase exists. The formation regularity of the phases in the nanometer powders of alloys obeys the common phase laws in bulk alloy state.

文摘Metallurgical dust(MD)was used as raw material to prepare rare earth Ce-doped Fe-based catalysts.The results show that the Ce_(0.1)/AMD-300℃catalyst prepared from acid-modified diatomite(AMD)with mCe/mMD=0.1(m_(Ce)and m_(MD)are the mass of Ce and MD,respectively)after being roasted at 300℃can reach 99%NO_(x)removal rate in the wide temperature range of 230–430℃and exhibits excellent So_(2)and H_(2)o resistance.The MD effectively removes alkali metal elements by the modification process,increases the specific surface area and optimizes the pore structure of MD.The doping of Ce element makes Fe-based catalysts have more surface adsorbed oxygen O_(α)and a higher Ce^(3+)/Ce^(4+)ratio.Through ammonia temperature-programmed desorption and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction,it was found that the strong interaction between cerium and iron promotes the formation of more oxygen cavities in the catalyst,thereby generating more active and easily reducible oxygen species and promoting the transformation of Brønsted acid site to Lewis acid site.The research results provide a theoretical basis for the preparation of efficient and inexpensive Fe-based catalysts from MD.

文摘Based on computational fluid dynamics method,the effect of atomization gas pressure on the atomization efficiency of Laval nozzle was studied,and then a discrete phase model was established and combined with industrial trials to study the effect of a new type of assisted gas nozzles(AGNs)on powder size distribution and amorphous powder yield.The results show that increasing the atomization pressure can effectively improve the gas velocity for the Laval nozzle;however,it will decrease the aspiration pressure,and the optimal atomization pressure is 2.0 MPa.Compared with this,after the application of AGNs with the inlet velocity of 200 m s^(-1),assisted gas jet can increase the velocity of overall droplets in the break-up and solidification area by 40 m s^(-1) and the maximum cooling rate is increased from 1.9×10^(4) to 2.3×10^(4) K s^(-1).The predicted particle behavior is demonstrated by the industrial trails,that is,after the application of AGNs,the median diameter of powders d50 is decreased from 28.42 to 25.56 lm,the sphericity is increased from 0.874 to 0.927,the fraction of amorphous powders is increased from 90.4% to 99.4%,and only the coercivity is increased slightly due to the accumulation of internal stress.It is illustrated that the AGNs can improve the yield of fine amorphous powders,which is beneficial to providing high-performance raw powders for additive manufacturing technology.

文摘Silicon nanowires(SiNWs)have been used in a wide variety of applications over the past few decades due to their excellent material properties.The only drawback is the high production cost of SiNWs.The preparation of SiNWs from photovoltaic waste silicon(WSi)powders,which are high-volume industrial wastes,not only avoids the secondary energy consumption and environmental pollution caused by complicated recycling methods,but also realizes its high-value utilization.Herein,we present a method to rapidly convert photovoltaic WSi powders into SiNWs products.The flash heating and quenching provided by carbothermal shock induce the production of free silicon atoms from the WSi powders,which are rapidly reorganized and assembled into SiNWs during the vapor-phase process.This method allows for the one-step composite of SiNWs and carbon cloth(CC)and the formation of SiC at the interface of the silicon(Si)and carbon(C)contact to create a stable chemical connection.The obtained SiNWs-CC(SiNWs@CC)composites can be directly used as lithium anodes,exhibiting high initial coulombic efficiency(86.4%)and stable cycling specific capacity(2437.4 mA h g^(-1)at 0.5 A g^(-1)after 165 cycles).In addition,various SiNWs@C composite electrodes are easily prepared using this method.

文摘Magnetostrictive Fe-Ga alloys have captivated substantial focus in biomedical applications because of their exceptional transition efficiency and favorable cytocompatibility.Nevertheless,Fe-Ga alloys always exhibit frustrating magnetostriction coefficients when presented in bulk dimensions.It is well-established that the magnetostrictive performance of Fe-Ga alloys is intimately linked to their phase and crystal structures.In this study,various concentrations of boron(B)were doped into Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloys via the laser-beam powder bed fusion(LPBF)technique to tailor the crystal and phase structures,thereby improving the magnetostrictive performance.The results revealed the capacity for quick solidification of the LPBF process in expediting the solid solution of B element,which increased both lattice distortion and dislocations within the Fe-Ga matrix.These factors contributed to an elevation in the density of the modified-D0_(3) phase structure.Moreover,the prepared Fe-Ga-B alloys also exhibited a(001)preferred grain orientation caused by the high thermal gradients during the LPBF process.As a result,a maximum magnetostriction coefficient of 105 ppm was achieved in the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy.In alternating magnetic fields,all the LPBF-prepared alloys showed good dynamic magnetostriction response without visible hysteresis,while the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy presented a notable enhancement of~30%in magnetostriction coefficient when compared with the Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloy.Moreover.the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy exhibited favorable biocompatibility and osteogenesis,as confirmed by increased alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity and the formation of mineralized nodules.These findings suggest that the B-doped Fe-Ga alloys combined with the LPBF technique hold promise for the development of bulk magnetostrictive alloys that are applicable for bone repair applications.

文摘This work investigated the anisotropy tensile properties of Inconel 625 alloy fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) under various tests temperature, focusing the anisotropy evolution during the high temperature. The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.
文摘BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis(UC)is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the colon.The most common psychological issue in UC patients is varying degrees of depre-ssion,which affects the condition and quality of life of UC patients and may lead to deterioration of the patient’s condition.UC drugs combined with anti-anxiety and antidepression drugs can alleviate symptoms of both depression and UC.Brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)precursor(proBDNF)/p75 neurotrophin receptor(p75NTR)/sortilin and BDNF/tropomyosin receptor kinase B(TrkB)signalling balance is essential for maintaining brain homeostasis and preventing the development of depressive behaviours.AIM To explore the mechanism by which Wuling powder regulates the proBDNF/p75NTR/sortilin and BDNF/TrkB pathways in the treatment of UC with depre-ssion.METHODS Depression was established in C57BL/6J mice via chronic restraint stress,and the UC model was induced with dextran sodium sulfate(DSS).In the treatment stage,mesalazine(MS)was the basic treatment,Wuling powder was the experimental treatment,and fluoxetine was the positive control drug for treating depression.Changes in intestinal mucosal inflammation,behaviour,and the proBDNFp75NTR/sortilin and BDNF/TrkB pathways were evaluated.RESULTS In the depression groups,Wuling powder decreased the immobility time,increased the distance travelled in the central zone and the total distance travelled,and restored balance in the proBDNF/p75NTR/sortilin and BDNF/TrkB signalling pathways.In the DSS and chronic restraint stress+DSS groups,immobility time increased,distance travelled in the central zone and total distance travelled decreased,activity of the proBDNF/p75NTR/sortilin pathway was upregulated,and activity of the BDNF/TrkB pathway was downregulated,indicating that mice with UC often have comorbid depression.Compared with those of MS alone,Wuling powder combined with MS further decreased the colon histopathological scores and the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 mRNAs.CONCLUSION This study confirmed that Wuling powder may play an antidepressant role by regulating the balance of the proBDNF/p75NTR/sortilin and BDNF/TrkB signalling pathways and further relieve intestinal inflammation in UC.

文摘In order to achieve the large-scale application of manufactured sand in railway high-strength concrete structure,a series of high-strength manufactured sand concrete(HMC)are prepared by taking the manufactured sand lithology(tuff,limestone,basalt,granite),stone powder content(0,5%,10%,15%)and concrete strength grade(C60,C80,C100)as variables.The evolution of mechanical properties of HMC and the correlation between cubic compressive strength and other mechanical properties are studied.Compared to river sand,manufactured sand enhances the cubic compressive strength,axial compressive strength and elastic modulus of concrete,while its potential microcracks weaken the flexural strength and splitting tensile strength of concrete.Stone powder content displays both positive and negative effects on mechanical properties of HMC,and the stone powder content is suggested to be less than 10%.The empirical formulas between cubic compressive strength and other mechanical properties are proposed.

文摘The feasibility of manufacturing Ti-6Al-4V samples through a combination of laser-aided additive manufacturing with powder(LAAM_(p))and wire(LAAM_(w))was explored.A process study was first conducted to successfully circumvent defects in Ti-6Al-4V deposits for LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w),respectively.With the optimized process parameters,robust interfaces were achieved between powder/wire deposits and the forged substrate,as well as between powder and wire deposits.Microstructure characterization results revealed the epitaxial prior β grains in the deposited Ti-6Al-4V,wherein the powder deposit was dominated by a finerα′microstructure and the wire deposit was characterized by lamellar α phases.The mechanisms of microstructure formation and correlation with mechanical behavior were analyzed and discussed.The mechanical properties of the interfacial samples can meet the requirements of the relevant Aerospace Material Specifications(AMS 6932)even without post heat treatment.No fracture occurred within the interfacial area,further suggesting the robust interface.The findings of this study highlighted the feasibility of combining LAAM_(p) and LAAM_(w) in the direct manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V parts in accordance with the required dimensional resolution and deposition rate,together with sound strength and ductility balance in the as-built condition.
