Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.展开更多

文摘Rare earth(RE)Y-type zeolite was synthesized in situ by acidic co-hydrolysis route and hydrothermal method.The key process parameters were optimized based on the RE utilization rate.The effect of inducing a rotating packed bed(RPB)in premixing and crystallization on crystallinity and RE utilization rate was further investigated.The results indicate that lanthanide(La)cations are successfully introduced into the sodalite cage of Y-type zeolite.The optimized conditions are that the molar ratio of Si/La is 150,premixing for 5 h,crystallization at 90℃ for 18 h,and calcination at 550℃ for 3.5 h.At this stage,the RE utilization rate reaches 74.5%.Compared with the conventional stirred tank reactor(STR),RPB can effectively shorten the premixing time and crystallization time by 4.3 h and 6 h,improve the crystallinity by 23%and RE utilization rate by 7.5%.The RE utilization rate is more than 80%by RPB,surpassing the effectiveness of using the one-exchange one-calcination process in the traditional liquid ion exchange process.It is expected to provide a reference for the in-situ efficient and green synthesis of RE zeolite.
文摘The main purpose of using geothermal energy piles(GEPs)is to enable the exploitation of geothermal energy for meeting the heating/cooling demands of buildings efficiently.However,the installation process of conventional GEPs is inconvenient compared with that of traditional foundation piles.The pre-bored grouted planted geothermal energy pile(PGP GEP)is an innovative technology to simplify the installation process.Most investigations of in-situ experiments for conventional GEPs have focused on summer conditions.An in-situ test for a PGP GEP was conducted to analyze the temperature changes and thermo-mechanical characteristics under winter conditions.The results show that the average temperature of the pile decreased by 5.1℃,and the pile exhibited a general trend of high temperatures at both ends and low temperatures in the middle.In mechanics,strong pile end restraints resulted in smaller observed axial strain and higher axial thermal-induced force in the pile ends than at the middle of the pile.

文摘Cold deformation treatment of Cu-bearing stainless steel through a cold rolling process combined with electric pulse treatment(EPT)can significantly improve the microstructure and formability of cold-rolled Cu-bearing stainless steel.The microstructure after EPT was characterized by scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and in-situ tensile testing.It is found that compared with conventional heat treatment,EPT process can significantly promote the nucleation rate and mobility at grain boundaries of the deformed samples,greatly accelerating the recovery and static recrystallization of Cu-bearing stainless steel samples at lower temperatures and contributing to the recovery of anisotropy and the re-molding of deformed samples.Microstructural characterization and theoretical analyses show that the rapid recrystallization during EPT process is caused not only by Joule heating effects but also by non-thermal effects that accelerate grain boundary migration and dislocation destruction and regeneration.In addition,EPT process significantly accelerated the nucleation and precipitation growth of Cu-rich phase.The coarsening of Cu-rich phase during EPT process is due to not only the high vacancy diffusion coefficient under the action of the electric pulse but also the increase in the vacancy diffusion flux induced by the electromigration in the process of the electric pulse.

文摘In the present work,the porous Ti particle reinforced Mg-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites(BMGCs)have been successfully fabricated via a novel in-situ dealloying method in metallic melt.A dual reinforcing structure,including large-scale between porous particles and fine-scale inside one particle,was induced to further overcome the strength-plasticity tradeoff.The microstructure and mechanical properties of such dual-scale structure-reinforced BMGCs with various volume fractions and diameters of porous Ti particles were investigated in detail.It is found that with more and finer porous Ti particles,the BMGC showed both high fracture strength(1131.9±39.1 MPa)and good plastic deformability(1.48±0.38%).The characteristic of the reinforcing structure(0.48μm)inside the porous particles was close to the plastic processing zone size of the matrix(0.1~0.2μm),which generated a locally ideal reinforcing structure.Such dual-scale reinforcing structures with more interfaces can effectively promote the multiplication of shear bands at the interfaces.Due to the size effect,the refined submicron matrix between the Ti ligaments inside the porous particles should exhibit homogeneous shearing events.Such delocalization behavior from the dual-scale reinforcing structures should help to enhance the role of the interactions between shear bands,thus improving the yield strength of the composites.Based on the in-situ dealloying method,the dual-scale structure design provides a novel approach to fabricate various BMGCs with both high strength and good plasticity.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘Marine gas hydrates are highly sensitive to temperature and pressure fluctuations,and deviations from in-situ conditions may cause irreversible changes in phase state,microstructure,and mechanical properties.However,conventional samplers often fail to maintain sealing and thermal stability,resulting in low sampling success rates.To address these challenges,an in-situ temperature-and pressure-preserved sampler for marine applications has been developed.The experimental results indicate that the selfdeveloped magnetically controlled pressure-preserved controller reliably achieves autonomous triggering and self-sealing,provides an initial sealing force of 83 N,and is capable of maintaining pressures up to 40 MPa.Additionally,a custom-designed intelligent temperature control chip and high-precision sensors were integrated into the sampler.Through the design of an optimized heat transfer structure,a temperature-preserved system was developed,achieving no more than a 0.3℃ rise in temperature within 2 h.The performance evaluation and sampling operations of the sampler were conducted at the Haima Cold Seep in the South China Sea,resulting in the successful recovery of hydrate maintained under in-situ pressure of 13.8 MPa and a temperature of 6.5℃.This advancement enables the acquisition of high-fidelity hydrate samples,providing critical support for the safe exploitation and scientific analysis of marine gas hydrate resources.

文摘As shallow resources are increasingly depleted,the mechanics'theory and testing technology of deep insitu rock has become urgent.Traditional coring technologies obtain rock samples without retaining the in-situ environmental conditions,leading to distortion of the measured parameters.Herein,a coring and testing systems retaining in-situ geological conditions is presented:the coring system that obtains in-situ rock samples,and the transfer and testing system that stores and analyzes the rocks under a reconstructed environment.The ICP-Coring system mainly consists of the pressure controller,active insulated core reactor and insulation layer and sealing film.The ultimate bearing strength of 100 MPa for pressurepreservation,temperature control accuracy of 0.97%for temperature-retained are realized.CH_(4)and CO permeability of the optimized sealing film are as low as 3.85 and 0.33 ppm/min.The average tensile elongation of the film is 152.4%and the light transmittance is reduced to 0%.Additionally,the pressure and steady-state temperature accuracy for reconstructing the in-situ environment of transfer and storage system up to 1%and±0.2 is achieved.The error recorded of the noncontact sensor ring made of lowdensity polymer is less than 6%than that of the contact test.The system can provide technical support for the deep in-situ rock mechanics research,improving deep resource acquisition capabilities and further clarifying deep-earth processes.

文摘The rich resources and unique environment of the Moon make it an ideal location for human expansion and the utilization of extraterrestrial resources.Oxygen,crucial for supporting human life on the Moon,can be extracted from lunar regolith,which is highly rich in oxygen and contains polymetallic oxides.This oxygen and metal extraction can be achieved using existing metallurgical techniques.Furthermore,the ample reserves of water ice on the Moon offer another means for oxygen production.This paper offers a detailed overview of the leading technologies for achieving oxygen production on the Moon,drawing from an analysis of lunar resources and environmental conditions.It delves into the principles,processes,advantages,and drawbacks of water-ice electrolysis,two-step oxygen production from lunar regolith,and one-step oxygen production from lunar regolith.The two-step methods involve hydrogen reduction,carbothermal reduction,and hydrometallurgy,while the one-step methods encompass fluorination/chlorination,high-temperature decomposition,molten salt electrolysis,and molten regolith electrolysis(MOE).Following a thorough comparison of raw materials,equipment,technology,and economic viability,MOE is identified as the most promising approach for future in-situ oxygen production on the Moon.Considering the corrosion characteristics of molten lunar regolith at high temperatures,along with the Moon's low-gravity environment,the development of inexpensive and stable inert anodes and electrolysis devices that can easily collect oxygen is critical for promoting MOE technology on the Moon.This review significantly contributes to our understanding of in-situ oxygen production technologies on the Moon and supports upcoming lunar exploration initiatives.

文摘The characteristics of nonmetallic inclusions formed during steel production have a significant influence on steel performance.In this paper,studies on inclusions using confocal scanning laser microscopy(CSLM)are reviewed and summarized,particularly the col-lision of various inclusions,dissolution of inclusions in liquid slag,and reactions between inclusions and steel.Solid inclusions exhibited a high collision tendency,whereas pure liquid inclusions exhibited minimal collisions because of the small attraction force induced by their<90°contact angle with molten steel.The collision of complex inclusions in molten steel was not included in the scope of this study and should be evaluated in future studies.Higher CaO/Al_(2)O_(3)and CaO/SiO_(2)ratios in liquid slag promoted the dissolution of Al_(2)O_(3)-based in-clusions.The formation of solid phases in the slag should be prevented to improve dissolution of inclusions.To accurately simulate the dissolution of inclusions in liquid slag,in-situ observation of the dissolution of inclusions at the steel-slag interface is necessary.Using a combination of CSLM and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy,the composition and morphological evolution of the inclusions during their modification by the dissolved elements in steel were observed and analyzed.Although the in-situ observa-tion of MnS and TiN precipitations has been widely studied,the in-situ observation of the evolution of oxide inclusions in steel during so-lidification and heating processes has rarely been reported.The effects of temperature,heating and cooling rates,and inclusion character-istics on the formation of acicular ferrites(AFs)have been widely studied.At a cooling rate of 3-5 K/s,the order of AF growth rate in-duced by different inclusions,as reported in literature,is Ti-O<Ti-Ca-Zr-Al-O<Mg-O<Ti-Zr-Al-O<Mn-Ti-Al-O<Ti-Al-O<Zr-Ti-Al-O.Further comprehensive experiments are required to investigate the quantitative relationship between the formation of AFs and inclusions.

文摘Development of on-chip coherent light sources with desired single-mode operation and straightforward spectral tunability has attracted intense interest due to ever-increasing demand for photonic devices and optoelectronic integration,but still faces serious challenges.Herein,we propose a facile method to synthesize cesium lead halide(CsPbX3)microstructures with well-defined morphologies,sizes,and constituent element gradient.The scheme is conducted using a chemical vapor deposition(CVD),which is subsequently associated with annealing-assisted solid-solid anion exchange.For the plate-shaped structures,the controllability on the cross-sectional dimension enables to precisely modulate the lasing modes,thus achieving single-mode operation;while tuning the stoichiometric of the halogen anion components in the plate-shaped CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) alloy samples,the lasing wavelengths are straightforwardly varied to span the entire visible spectrum.By comparison,the experimental scheme on synthesizing alloyed CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) perovskites is conducted using an in-situ approach,thereby achieving precise modulation of bandgap-controlled microlasers by controlling the reaction time.Such laser properties like controllable microcavity modes and broad stoichiometry-dependent tunability of light-emitting/lasing colors,associated with the facile synthesizing method of monocrystalline CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) structures,make lead halide perovskites ideal materials for the development of wavelength-controlled microlasers toward practical photonic integration.

文摘The high-temperature dissolution behavior of primary carbides in samples taken from GCr15 continuous-casting bloom was observed in-situ by confocal laser scanning microscopy.Equations were fitted to the dissolution kinetics of primary carbides during either heating or soaking.Dissolution of carbides proceeded in three stages(fast→slow→faster)as either temperature or holding time was increased.During the heating process and during the first and third stages of the soaking process,the original size of the carbides determined the steepness of the slope,but during the middle(“slow”)stage of the soaking process,the slope remained zero.The initial size of the carbides varied greatly,but their final dissolution temperature fell within the narrow range of 1210-1235℃,and the holding time remained within 50 min.Fractal analysis was used to study the morphological characteristics of small and medium-sized carbides during the dissolution process.According to changes in the fractal dimension before and after soaking,the carbides tended to evolve towards a more regular morphology.

文摘Gas content serves as a critical indicator for assessing the resource potential of deep coal mines and forecasting coal mine gas outburst risks.However,existing sampling technologies face challenges in maintaining the integrity of gas content within samples and are often constrained by estimation errors inherent in empirical formulas,which results in inaccurate gas content measurements.This study introduces a lightweight,in-situ pressure-and gas-preserved corer designed to collect coal samples under the pressure conditions at the sampling point,effectively preventing gas loss during transfer and significantly improving measurement accuracy.Additionally,a gas migration model for deep coal mines was developed to elucidate gas migration characteristics under pressure-preserved coring conditions.The model offers valuable insights for optimizing coring parameters,demonstrating that both minimizing the coring hole diameter and reducing the pressure difference between the coring-point pressure and the original pore pressure can effectively improve the precision of gas content measurements.Coring tests conducted at an experimental base validated the performance of the corer and its effectiveness in sample collection.Furthermore,successful horizontal coring tests conducted in an underground coal mine roadway demonstrated that the measured gas content using pressure-preserved coring was 34%higher than that obtained through open sampling methods.

文摘To explore the spontaneous magnetization of iron-bearing rare earth ores during suspension roasting,binary minerals containing hematite and bastnaesite were used to investigate the effects of the roasting temperature,roasting time,and bastnaesite-to-hematite mass ratio on in-situ reduction of hematite in a N_(2)atmosphere.Relevant analytical tests were used to explore the mineral phase evolution during roasting,the magnetism and microstructure of the roasted products,the phase composition,and the surface element valence of concentrate.It was found that magnetic separation of the iron concentrate afforded an iron grade of 68.87%and a recovery of 93.18%under the optimum roasting conditions.During roasting,bastnaesite decomposed to generate CO_(2)and CO,and the compact structure of hematite was gradually destroyed,resulting in microcracks.Subsequently,the CO entered the surface of the hematite through the microcracks and reacted to form a magnetite shell,and the magnetite-encapsulated hematite particles were recovered via low-intensity magnetic separation.

文摘A solid solution 6063 aluminium alloy features an exceptional combination of strength and ductility at 77 K.Here,the deformation mechanisms responsible for superior strength-ductility synergy and excellent strain hardening capacity at a cryogenic temperature of the alloy were comparatively investigated by insitu electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)observations coupled with transmission electron microscopy(TEM)characterization and fracture morphologies at both 298 and 77 K.It is found that kernel average misorientation(KAM)mappings and quantified KAM in degree suggest a higher proportion of geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)at 77 K.The existence of orientation scatter partitions at 77 K implies the activation of multiple slip systems,which is consistent with the results of potential slip systems calculated by Taylor axes.Furthermore,dislocation tangles characterized by brief and curved dislocation cells and abundant small dimples have been observed at 77 K.This temperature-mediated activation of dislocations facilitates the increased dislocations,thus enhancing the strain hardening capacity and ductility of the alloy.This research enriches cryogenic deformation theory and provides valuable insights into the design of high-performance aluminium alloys that are suitable for cryogenic applications.

文摘The austenite(γ)reversely transformed from lath martensite(LM),lath bainite(LB),granular bainite(GB)and pearlite+ferrite(P+F)in a high-strength steel was studied at high temperatures using in-situ electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD).The memory effect of initial γ significantly affects the nucleation of the reverted γ in LM and GB structures,while a weak influence on that of LB and P+F structures.This results in a significant difference in γ grain size after complete austenitization,with the first two obtaining larger γ grains while the latter two are relatively small.Crystallographic analysis revealed that the reverted γ with acicular morphology(γA),most of which maintained the same orientation with the prior γ,dominated the reaustenitization behavior of LM and GB structures through preferential nucleation within γ grains and coalesced growth modes.Although globular reverted γ(γ_(G))with random orientation or large deviation from the prior γ can nucleate at the grain boundaries or within the grains,it is difficult for it to grow and play a role in segmenting and refining the prior γ due to the inhibition of γ_(A) coalescing.For LB and P+F structures,the nucleation rate of intragranular γ_(G) increases with increasing temperature,and always shows a random orientation.These γ_(G) grains can coarsen simultaneously with the intergranular γ_(G),ultimately playing a role in jointly dividing and refining the finalγgrains.Research also found that the differences in the effects of four different microstructures on revertedγnucleation are closely related to the variant selection of the matrix structure,as well as the content and size of cementite(θ).High density of block boundaries induced by weakening of variant selection and many fineθformed in the lath are the key to promoting LB structure to obtain more intragranular γ_(G) formation,as well as the important role of the large-sized θ in P+F structure.

文摘To effectively regulate the grain boundary infiltration in CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy(Cantor alloys,HEA)caused by the violent atomic interdiffusion,the higher configuration entropy on Cantor alloys surface was designed and realized via eutectic high-entropy(EHEA)transformation.Meanwhile,to effectively alleviate the residual stress caused by the notable difference in the thermal expansion coefficient(CTE)between Cantor alloys and Zr-3 alloys,a cladding layer was applied to the HEA surface using laser cladding technology of Nb,followed by brazing to Zr-3 alloys with Zr63.2Cu filler.The cladding layer’s microstructure comprised Nbss and FCC+(Co,Ni)_(2) Nb eutectic structure,resulting from an in-situ reaction between Cantor alloys and Nb.The Nbss and FCC demonstrated good plasticity,and the(Co,Ni)_(2) Nb Laves phase provided increased strength,endowing both good plastic deformation ability and strength of the cladding layer.Notably,the existence of EHEA in the laser cladding layer made the Cantor alloy entropy from 1.61 R to 1.77 R,greatly enhancing its thermal stability and suppressing the grave grain boundary infiltration.Joints produced via laser cladding with Nb-assisted brazing exhibited a complex microstructure(HEA/Nbss+FCC+(Co,Ni)_(2)Nb/(Zr,Nb)(Cr,Mn)_(2)+(Zr,Nb)ss/(Zr,Nb)_(2)(Cu,Ni,Co,Fe)+(Zr,Nb)(Cr,Mn)_(2)+(Zr,Nb)ss/Zr-3) and a significantly improved shear strength of 242.8 MPa at 1010℃ for 10 min,42.4%higher than that of directly brazed joints.This improvement was attributed to reduced grain boundary infiltration,alleviated residual stress due to CTE disparity,and eliminated micro-cracks in the brazing seam.This study presents an effective solution for reducing residual stresses and achieving reliable bonding between Cantor alloys and Zr-3 alloys,with potential applications in brazing CoCrFeNi-based HEA and Zr-3 due to the beneficial eutectic reaction between CoCrFeNi and Nb.

文摘Low-to medium-maturity oil shale resources display substantial reserves, offering promising prospects for in-situ conversion inChina. Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.
