The spun alloy ribbons with a continuous length, a thickness of about 30 μm and a width of about 25 mm are obtained. The structures of the as-spun alloy ribbons were characterized by XRD and HRTEM. The electrochemical hydrogen storage characteristics of the as-spun alloy ribbons were measured by an automatic galvanostatic system. The electrochemical impedance spectrums （EIS） were plotted by an electrochemical workstation. The hydrogen diffusion coefficients （D） in the alloys were calculated by virtue of potential-step measurement. The results show that all the as-spun （x=0） alloys hold a typical nanocrystalline structure, whereas the as-spun （x=0.4） alloy displays a nanocrystalline and amorphous structure, confirming that the substitution of Mn for Ni facilitates the glass formation in the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The substitution of Mn for Ni significantly improves the electrochemical hydrogen storage performances of the alloys, involving the discharge capacity and the electrochemical cycle stability. With an increase in the amount of Mn substitution from 0 to 0.4, the discharge capacity of the as-spun （20 m/s） alloy increases from 96.5 to 265.3 mA·h/g, and its capacity retaining rate （S20） at the 20th cycle increases from 31.3% to 70.2%. Furthermore, the high rate dischargeability （HRD）, electrochemical impedance spectrum and potential-step measurements all indicate that the electrochemical kinetics of the alloy electrodes first increases then decreases with raising the amount of Mn substitution.展开更多

The structures of the alloys were studied by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. It was found that no amorphous phase formed in the as-spun La-free alloy, but the as-spun alloys containing La held a major amorphous phase. When La content x≤2, the major phase in the as-cast alloys was Mg2Ni phase, but with further increase of La content, the major phase of the as-cast alloys changed into LaNi5＋LaMg3 phase. Thermal stability of the as-spun alloys was studied by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）, showing that spinning rate was a negligible factor on the crystallization temperature of the amorphous phase. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the as-cast and as-spun alloys were measured using an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus, confirming that the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities and kinetics of the as-cast alloys clearly increased with rising La content. For La content x=2, the as-spun alloy displayed optimal hydrogen desorption kinetics at 200 ℃.展开更多

High tenacity, high module fiber is prepared by melt spinning in liquid crystal phase. The effect of molecular weight, shear rate, temperature as well as spinning drawn ratio on the mechanical behavior of 60PHB / PET copolyester fiber are shown that, lower shear rate (2<sup> </sup>10 s<sup>-1</sup>), higher temperature melting （300℃ ）, lower temperature spinning （280℃ ） and higher molecular weight are favourable to the increase of the fiber mechanical properties. With the variance of drawn ratio, fiber mechanical property has a transition point due to traversion from shear-orientation to drawn-orientation. The copolyester fiber has high crystallinity, high orientation at the crystalline region, high chain orientation and high regular fibrillar structure.展开更多

The microstructure showed that the A1-5Ti- 1B-1RE nanoribbon consisted of granular-like TiB2 and core-shell-like TiA13/Ti2A120Ce. The A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon could give rise to the excellent refining effect on as-cast A356 alloys. The refining efficiency and formation mechanism of A1-5Ti-IB-IRE nanoribbons were investigated. In accordance with the experimental results, it could be seen that the A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon could maintain the refining effect after 60 min of holding. Additionally, owing to the addition of A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon, the mechanical properties of A356 alloys could be enhanced significantly.展开更多

For melt spun Cei7Fe78-xTaxB6 (x = 0-1) alloys, the coercivity Hc increases from 439 to 553 kA/m with increasing x value from 0 to 0.75. Microstructure characterizations indicate that Ta doping is helpful for grain refinement. A second phase of TaB2 is observed in Ce17Fe77.25Tao.75B6 alloy, which acts as the pinning center of the magnetic domains, resulting in the change of coercivity mechanism from nucleation type to nucleation +pinning type. The micromagnetic simulation confirms that non-magnetic particles within hard magnetic phase can increase the demagnetization field around them and it is crucial for preventing the further magnetization reverse by pinning effect. Take the advantage of Ta doping for enhancing the coercivity, Ce content of Ce-Fe-B alloy can be further cut down to increase the remanence Jr due to the reduced volume fraction of CeFe2 phase and increased Fe/Ce ratio. As a result, a good combination of magnetic properties with Hc = 514 kA/m, Jr = 0.49 T, and the maximum energy product (BH)max = 36 kJ/m^3 have been obtained in Ce15Fe79.25Tao.75B6 alloy. It is expected that the present work can serve as a useful reference for designing new permanent magnetic materials with low-cost.展开更多

Samples were arc melted then melt spun at 37 m/s up to 55 m/s to obtain ribbon for powdering. Annealing was performed in argon atmosphere for 30- 75 min at 600-870 oC. In as-spun ribbons the hexagonal SmCo7 （TbCu7-type of structure） of crystal structure was determined from x-ray diffraction patterns, while fcc-Co has been identified as a secondary phase. After annealing, the 1：7 phase of the as-spun ribbons transformed into 2：17 and 1：5 phases. X-ray patterns for as-milled powders exhibited very broad peaks making it difficult to identify a precise structure but repre-sented the 1：7 structure after annealing at low temperature （650 oC）. TEM analysis showed a homogeneous nanocrystalline microstructure with average grain size of 30-80 nm. Coercivity values of 15-27 kOe were obtained from hysteresis loops traced up to a field of 5 T. The co-ercivity decreased as temperature increases, but it maintained values higher than 5 kOe at 380 oC. The maximum energy product at room temperature increased, as high as 7.2 MGOe, for melt-spun isotropic ribbons produced at higher wheel speeds. Anisotropic ribbons had a maximum energy product close to 12 MGOe.展开更多

After washing the resultant powders to remove Ca metal component, the powders obtained were recycled as an isotropic magnetic powder by the melt spinning method. The magnetic properties of powders as recycled were inferior, especially for the coercivity value, due to the deletion of rare earth metals during the washing process. The adjustment of metal composition, i.e., the addition of Nd metal, at the melt spinning process improved the magnetic properties to be B r=～0.75 T, H cj=～0.93 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～91 kJ·m -3. The magnetic properties of the bonded magnets prepared from the composition-adjusted powders were B r=～0.66 T, H cj=～0.92 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～70 kJ·m -3, which are approximately comparable to the commercially available MQPB boned one (B r=～0.73 T, H cj=～0.79 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～86 kJ·m -3).展开更多

Based on X-ray diffraction results, all melt-spun ribbons consist of the main phase with the tetragonal 2：14：1 type structure and the minor α-Fe phase. Magnetic measurements show the maximum magnetic energy product （（BH）max） and the remanence （Mr） increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of wheel speed, while the coercivity （Hci） increases, resulting from the variation of the average volume fraction of the ^-Fe phase and the average grain size in the melt-spun ribbons. Using Henkel plots, the interaction between the 2：14：1 phase and the ^-Fe phase in the melt-spun ribbons was analyzed and the intergranular exchange coupling is manifested. Optimal magnetic properties of Hci - 7.27 kOe, Mr - 90.94 emu/g and （BH）max -- 12.10 MGOe are achieved in the （Ndo.4La0.6）lsFeTzsBT.s ribbon with the wheel speed of 26 m/s. It indicates that magnetic properties of Nd-Fe-B melt-spun ribbons with highly abundant rare earth element La can be improved by optimizing alloy composition and preparation process.展开更多

The microstructures of the as-spun alloys were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The electrochemical hydrogen storage properties of the experimental alloys were tested. The results show that no amorphous phase is detected in the as-spun Mg20Ni10 alloy, but the as-spun Mg18La2Ni10 alloy holds a major amorphous phase. As La content increases from 0 to 2, the maximum discharge capacity of the as-spun （20 m/s） alloys rises from 96.5 to 387.1 mA.h/g, and the capacity retaining rate （S20） at the 20th cycle grows from 31.3% to 71.7%. Melt-spinning engenders an impactful effect on the electrochemical hydrogen storage performances of the alloys. With the increase in the spinning rate from 0 to 30 m/s, the maximum discharge capacity increases from 30.3 to 135.5 mA.h/g for the Mg20Ni10 alloy, and from 197.2 to 406.5 mA-h/g for the Mg18La2Ni10 alloy. The capacity retaining rate （S20） of the Mg2oNi10 alloy at the 20th cycle slightly falls from 36.7% to 27.1%, but it markedly mounts up from 37.3% to 78.3% for the Mg18La2Ni10 alloy.展开更多

The martensitic transformation and the magnetic-field-induced strain (MFIS) of the polycrystalline melt-spun ribbon were investigated. The experimental results showed that the melt-spun ribbons underwent thermal-elastic martensitic transformation and reverse transformation in cooling and heating process and exhibited typical thermo-elastic shape memory effect. However the start temperature for martensitic transformation decreased from 286 K for as-cast alloy to 254 K for as-quenched ribbon and Curie temperature remains approximately constant. A particular internal stress induced by melt-spinning resulted in the formation of a texture structure in the ribbons, which made the ribbons obtain larger martensitic transformation strain and MFIS. The internal stress was released substantially after annealing, which resulted in a decrease of MFIS of the ribbons.展开更多

The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured using an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus, and their electrochemical kinetics were tested by an automatic galvanostatic system. The electrochemical impedance spectrums （EIS） were plotted by an electrochemical workstation （PARSTAT 2273）. The hydrogen diffusion coefficients in the alloys were calculated by virtue of potential-step method. The obtained results showed that no amorphous phase was detected in the as-spun La-free alloy, but the as-spun alloys substituted by La held a major amorphous phase, con- firming that the substitution of La for Mg markedly intensified the glass forming ability of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The substitution of La for Mg notably improved the electrochemical hydrogen storage kinetics of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. Furthermore, the hydrogen storage kinetics of the experimental alloys was evidently ameliorated with the spinning rate growing.展开更多

The nanocrystalline and amorphous Mg2Ni-type Mg2Ni1-xCox (x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4) alloys were synthesized by melt-spinning technique. The structures of the as-cast and spun alloys were studied with an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and a high resolution transmission electronic microscope (HRTEM). An investigation on the thermal stability of the as-spun alloys was carried out with a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured with an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus. The results demonstrate that the substitution of Co for Ni does not alter the major phase of Mg2Ni but results in the formation of secondary phase MgCo2. No amorphous phase is detected in the as-spun Co-free alloy,but a certain amount of amorphous phase is clearly found in the as-spun Co-containing alloys. The substitution of Co for Ni exerts a slight influence on the hydriding kinetics of the as-spun alloy. However,it dramatically enhances the dehydriding kinetics of the as-cast and spun alloys. As Co content (x) increases from 0 to 0.4,the hydrogen desorption capacity increases from 0.19% to 1.39% (mass fraction) in 20 min for the as-cast alloy,and from 0.89% to 2.18% (mass fraction) for the as-spun alloy (30 m/s).展开更多

The structures of the as-cast and spun alloys were studied by X-ray diffractometry （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured with an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus. The results show that the as-spun Mn-free alloy holds a typical nanocrystalline structure, whereas the as-spun alloys containing Mn display a nanocrystalline and amorphous structure, confirming that the substitution of Mn for Ni intensifies the glass forming ability of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities and kinetics of the alloys increase with increasing the spinning rate, for which the nanocrystalline and amorphous structure produced by the melt spinning is mainly responsible. The substitution of Mn for Ni evidently improves the hydrogen desorption performance. The hydrogen desorption capacities of the as-cast and spun alloys rise with the increase in the percentage of Mn substitution.展开更多

The electrochemical hydrogen storage characteristics of the as-spun alloy ribbons were measured by an automatic galvanostatic system. The electrochemical impedance spectrums （EIS） were plotted by an electrochemical workstation. The hydrogen diffusion coefficients （D） in the alloys were calculated by virtue of potential-step measurement. The results show that all the as-spun （x=0） alloys hold a typical nanocrystalline structure, whereas the as-spun （x=0.4） alloy displays a nanocrystalline and amorphous structure, confirming that the substitution of Mn for Ni facilitates the glass formation in the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The substitution of Mn for Ni significantly improves the electrochemical hydrogen storage performances of the alloys, involving the discharge capacity and the electrochemical cycle stability. With an increase in the amount of Mn substitution from 0 to 0.4, the discharge capacity of the as-spun （20 m/s） alloy increases from 96.5 to 265.3 mA·h/g, and its capacity retaining rate （S20） at the 20th cycle increases from 31.3% to 70.2%. Furthermore, the high rate dischargeability （HRD）, electrochemical impedance spectrum and potential-step measurements all indicate that the electrochemical kinetics of the alloy electrodes first increases then decreases with raising the amount of Mn substitution.

文摘In order to improve the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation performances of the Mg2Ni-type alloys, Mg was partially substituted by La in the alloy, and melt spinning technology was used for the preparation of the Mg20-xLaxNi10 （x=0, 2, 4, 6） hydrogen storage alloys. The structures of the alloys were studied by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. It was found that no amorphous phase formed in the as-spun La-free alloy, but the as-spun alloys containing La held a major amorphous phase. When La content x≤2, the major phase in the as-cast alloys was Mg2Ni phase, but with further increase of La content, the major phase of the as-cast alloys changed into LaNi5＋LaMg3 phase. Thermal stability of the as-spun alloys was studied by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）, showing that spinning rate was a negligible factor on the crystallization temperature of the amorphous phase. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the as-cast and as-spun alloys were measured using an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus, confirming that the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities and kinetics of the as-cast alloys clearly increased with rising La content. For La content x=2, the as-spun alloy displayed optimal hydrogen desorption kinetics at 200 ℃.
文摘Six samples of linear high randomness 60PHB/ PET thermotropic liquid crystal copolyesters are made by melt copolymerization at 290℃ , whose randomness about 0.955 is measured by the discernible ’H-NMR spectrometer. High tenacity, high module fiber is prepared by melt spinning in liquid crystal phase. The effect of molecular weight, shear rate, temperature as well as spinning drawn ratio on the mechanical behavior of 60PHB / PET copolyester fiber are shown that, lower shear rate (2<sup> </sup>10 s<sup>-1</sup>), higher temperature melting （300℃ ）, lower temperature spinning （280℃ ） and higher molecular weight are favourable to the increase of the fiber mechanical properties. With the variance of drawn ratio, fiber mechanical property has a transition point due to traversion from shear-orientation to drawn-orientation. The copolyester fiber has high crystallinity, high orientation at the crystalline region, high chain orientation and high regular fibrillar structure.

文摘A novel asymmetric alkylaminoborazine monomer,2-propylamino-4,6-bis（methylamino）borazine,was synthesized for the first time,and directly polymerized to give a melt-spinnable polyborazine（PBN）.This asymmetric alkylaminoborazine was synthesized by an aminolysis reaction of 2,4,6-trichloroborazine（TCB） with different amines under mild conditions.This route turns out to be much cheaper and simpler than the conventional routes.The chemical composition,structure,molecular weights and ceramic yield were investigated by EA,FTIR,NMR,GPC and TG analysis.The PBN exhibits suitable rheological property for melt-spinning, which suggests that it is a potential precursor for BN fibers.

文摘The novel A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbons were synthesized by melt-spinning. The microstructure showed that the A1-5Ti- 1B-1RE nanoribbon consisted of granular-like TiB2 and core-shell-like TiA13/Ti2A120Ce. The A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon could give rise to the excellent refining effect on as-cast A356 alloys. The refining efficiency and formation mechanism of A1-5Ti-IB-IRE nanoribbons were investigated. In accordance with the experimental results, it could be seen that the A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon could maintain the refining effect after 60 min of holding. Additionally, owing to the addition of A1-5Ti-IB-1RE nanoribbon, the mechanical properties of A356 alloys could be enhanced significantly.

文摘To develop Ce based permanent magnets with high performance/cost ratio, Ta doping is was employed to enhance the magnetic performance of Ce-Fe-B alloys. For melt spun Cei7Fe78-xTaxB6 (x = 0-1) alloys, the coercivity Hc increases from 439 to 553 kA/m with increasing x value from 0 to 0.75. Microstructure characterizations indicate that Ta doping is helpful for grain refinement. A second phase of TaB2 is observed in Ce17Fe77.25Tao.75B6 alloy, which acts as the pinning center of the magnetic domains, resulting in the change of coercivity mechanism from nucleation type to nucleation +pinning type. The micromagnetic simulation confirms that non-magnetic particles within hard magnetic phase can increase the demagnetization field around them and it is crucial for preventing the further magnetization reverse by pinning effect. Take the advantage of Ta doping for enhancing the coercivity, Ce content of Ce-Fe-B alloy can be further cut down to increase the remanence Jr due to the reduced volume fraction of CeFe2 phase and increased Fe/Ce ratio. As a result, a good combination of magnetic properties with Hc = 514 kA/m, Jr = 0.49 T, and the maximum energy product (BH)max = 36 kJ/m^3 have been obtained in Ce15Fe79.25Tao.75B6 alloy. It is expected that the present work can serve as a useful reference for designing new permanent magnetic materials with low-cost.

文摘We investigated the structural and magnetic properties of Sm（Co0.7Fe0.1Ni0.12Zr0.04B0.04）7.5 melt spun ribbons. Samples were arc melted then melt spun at 37 m/s up to 55 m/s to obtain ribbon for powdering. Annealing was performed in argon atmosphere for 30- 75 min at 600-870 oC. In as-spun ribbons the hexagonal SmCo7 （TbCu7-type of structure） of crystal structure was determined from x-ray diffraction patterns, while fcc-Co has been identified as a secondary phase. After annealing, the 1：7 phase of the as-spun ribbons transformed into 2：17 and 1：5 phases. X-ray patterns for as-milled powders exhibited very broad peaks making it difficult to identify a precise structure but repre-sented the 1：7 structure after annealing at low temperature （650 oC）. TEM analysis showed a homogeneous nanocrystalline microstructure with average grain size of 30-80 nm. Coercivity values of 15-27 kOe were obtained from hysteresis loops traced up to a field of 5 T. The co-ercivity decreased as temperature increases, but it maintained values higher than 5 kOe at 380 oC. The maximum energy product at room temperature increased, as high as 7.2 MGOe, for melt-spun isotropic ribbons produced at higher wheel speeds. Anisotropic ribbons had a maximum energy product close to 12 MGOe.

文摘The reduction diffusion method was performed for the sludge scrap of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets with adding Ca metal to recover the oxidized Nd-Fe-B phase. After washing the resultant powders to remove Ca metal component, the powders obtained were recycled as an isotropic magnetic powder by the melt spinning method. The magnetic properties of powders as recycled were inferior, especially for the coercivity value, due to the deletion of rare earth metals during the washing process. The adjustment of metal composition, i.e., the addition of Nd metal, at the melt spinning process improved the magnetic properties to be B r=～0.75 T, H cj=～0.93 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～91 kJ·m -3. The magnetic properties of the bonded magnets prepared from the composition-adjusted powders were B r=～0.66 T, H cj=～0.92 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～70 kJ·m -3, which are approximately comparable to the commercially available MQPB boned one (B r=～0.73 T, H cj=～0.79 mA·m -1, and (BH) max=～86 kJ·m -3).

文摘The Mg2Ni-type alloys with nominal compositions of Mg20Ni10-xCox(x=0,1,2,3,4,%,mass fraction) were prepared by melt-spinning technology.The structures of the alloys were studied by XRD,SEM and HRTEM.The hydrogen absorption/desorption kinetics and the electrochemical performances of the alloys were measured.The results show that no amorphous phase forms in the as-spun Co-free alloy,but the as-spun alloys containing Co show a certain amount of amorphous phase.The hydrogen absorption capacities of the as-cast alloys first increase and then decrease with the incremental change of Co content.The hydrogen desorption capacities of as-cast and spun alloys rise with increasing Co content.The melt spinning significantly improves the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation capacities and kinetics of the alloys.The substitution of Co for Ni clearly enhances the discharge capacities of the alloys and the cycle stability of the as-spun alloys.

文摘The melt-spinning technique offers an opportunity for tailoring magnetic properties by controlling the structures and microstructures in both single-phase and composite magnets.This review first broadly discusses the principle of cooling control,amorphization,crystallization,annealing,and consolidation of the melt-spun ribbons.The phase,microstructure,and magnetic properties of popular single-phase nanocrystalline magnets are reviewed,followed by the nanocomposite magnets consisting of magnetically hard and soft phases.The precipitation-hardened magnetic materials prepared by melt spinning are also discussed.Finally,the role of intergrain exchange coupling,thermal fluctuation,and reversible/irreversible magnetization processes are discussed and correlated to the magnetic phenomena in both single-phase and nanocomposite magnets.

文摘The effect of wheel speed on phase formation and magnetic properties of （Ndo.4La0.6）lsFeTzsBzs and （Ndo.4La0.6）13.4Fe79.9B6.7 ribbons prepared by melt-spinning method was investigated experimentally. Based on X-ray diffraction results, all melt-spun ribbons consist of the main phase with the tetragonal 2：14：1 type structure and the minor α-Fe phase. Magnetic measurements show the maximum magnetic energy product （（BH）max） and the remanence （Mr） increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of wheel speed, while the coercivity （Hci） increases, resulting from the variation of the average volume fraction of the ^-Fe phase and the average grain size in the melt-spun ribbons. Using Henkel plots, the interaction between the 2：14：1 phase and the ^-Fe phase in the melt-spun ribbons was analyzed and the intergranular exchange coupling is manifested. Optimal magnetic properties of Hci - 7.27 kOe, Mr - 90.94 emu/g and （BH）max -- 12.10 MGOe are achieved in the （Ndo.4La0.6）lsFeTzsBT.s ribbon with the wheel speed of 26 m/s. It indicates that magnetic properties of Nd-Fe-B melt-spun ribbons with highly abundant rare earth element La can be improved by optimizing alloy composition and preparation process.
文摘A new Al-based amorphous alloy with excellent corrosion resistance and high thermal stability was produced in the Al-Co-RE(Ce-La)system.In this regard,two different amorphous-nanocrystalline ribbons:Al_(87.6)-Co_(6.4)-Ce_(3.8-)La_(2.2)(M_(1))and Al_(82.3)-Co_(10.1)-Ce_(4.8)-La_(2.8)(M_(2))were prepared using melt spinning.The results reveal the supercooled liquid region(ATx)of 218℃which shows that the M2alloy has higher thermal stability in comparison to the M1alloy.The M2ribbons present the superior corrosion resistance because of the formation of amorphous phase.The icorr,Ecorr,Epit,and Epit-Ecorrvalues of fully amorphous Al-Co-Ce-La metallic ribbons have a better trend of anti-corrosion performance compared to other crystalline and amorphous aluminum alloys.

文摘In order to improve the electrochemical hydrogen storage performance of the Mg2Ni-type electrode alloys, Mg in the alloy was partially substituted by La, and the nanocrystalline and amorphous Mg2Ni-type Mg20-xLaxNi10 （x-=0, 2） alloys were synthesized by melt-spinning technique. The microstructures of the as-spun alloys were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The electrochemical hydrogen storage properties of the experimental alloys were tested. The results show that no amorphous phase is detected in the as-spun Mg20Ni10 alloy, but the as-spun Mg18La2Ni10 alloy holds a major amorphous phase. As La content increases from 0 to 2, the maximum discharge capacity of the as-spun （20 m/s） alloys rises from 96.5 to 387.1 mA.h/g, and the capacity retaining rate （S20） at the 20th cycle grows from 31.3% to 71.7%. Melt-spinning engenders an impactful effect on the electrochemical hydrogen storage performances of the alloys. With the increase in the spinning rate from 0 to 30 m/s, the maximum discharge capacity increases from 30.3 to 135.5 mA.h/g for the Mg20Ni10 alloy, and from 197.2 to 406.5 mA-h/g for the Mg18La2Ni10 alloy. The capacity retaining rate （S20） of the Mg2oNi10 alloy at the 20th cycle slightly falls from 36.7% to 27.1%, but it markedly mounts up from 37.3% to 78.3% for the Mg18La2Ni10 alloy.

文摘A magnetic shape memory alloy with nonstoichiometric Ni50Mn27Ga23 was prepared by using melt-spinning technology. The martensitic transformation and the magnetic-field-induced strain (MFIS) of the polycrystalline melt-spun ribbon were investigated. The experimental results showed that the melt-spun ribbons underwent thermal-elastic martensitic transformation and reverse transformation in cooling and heating process and exhibited typical thermo-elastic shape memory effect. However the start temperature for martensitic transformation decreased from 286 K for as-cast alloy to 254 K for as-quenched ribbon and Curie temperature remains approximately constant. A particular internal stress induced by melt-spinning resulted in the formation of a texture structure in the ribbons, which made the ribbons obtain larger martensitic transformation strain and MFIS. The internal stress was released substantially after annealing, which resulted in a decrease of MFIS of the ribbons.

文摘The nanocrystalline and amorphous Mg2Ni-type Mg2- xLaxNi （x=0, 0.2） hydrogen storage alloys were synthesized by melt-spinning technique. The as-spun alloy ribbons were obtained. The microstructures of the as-spun ribbons were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, high resolution transmission electronic microscopy （HRTEM） and electron diffraction （ED）. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured using an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus, and their electrochemical kinetics were tested by an automatic galvanostatic system. The electrochemical impedance spectrums （EIS） were plotted by an electrochemical workstation （PARSTAT 2273）. The hydrogen diffusion coefficients in the alloys were calculated by virtue of potential-step method. The obtained results showed that no amorphous phase was detected in the as-spun La-free alloy, but the as-spun alloys substituted by La held a major amorphous phase, con- firming that the substitution of La for Mg markedly intensified the glass forming ability of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The substitution of La for Mg notably improved the electrochemical hydrogen storage kinetics of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. Furthermore, the hydrogen storage kinetics of the experimental alloys was evidently ameliorated with the spinning rate growing.

文摘In order to improve the hydriding and dehydriding kinetics of the Mg2Ni-type alloys,Ni in the alloy is substituted by element Co. The nanocrystalline and amorphous Mg2Ni-type Mg2Ni1-xCox (x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4) alloys were synthesized by melt-spinning technique. The structures of the as-cast and spun alloys were studied with an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and a high resolution transmission electronic microscope (HRTEM). An investigation on the thermal stability of the as-spun alloys was carried out with a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured with an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus. The results demonstrate that the substitution of Co for Ni does not alter the major phase of Mg2Ni but results in the formation of secondary phase MgCo2. No amorphous phase is detected in the as-spun Co-free alloy,but a certain amount of amorphous phase is clearly found in the as-spun Co-containing alloys. The substitution of Co for Ni exerts a slight influence on the hydriding kinetics of the as-spun alloy. However,it dramatically enhances the dehydriding kinetics of the as-cast and spun alloys. As Co content (x) increases from 0 to 0.4,the hydrogen desorption capacity increases from 0.19% to 1.39% (mass fraction) in 20 min for the as-cast alloy,and from 0.89% to 2.18% (mass fraction) for the as-spun alloy (30 m/s).

文摘A partial substitution of Ni by Mn was implemented in order to improve the hydriding and dehydriding kinetics of the Mg2Ni-type alloys. The nanocrystalline and amorphous MgzNi-type Mg2Nil-xMnx （x=0, 0. 1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4） alloys were synthesized by the melt-spinning technique. The structures of the as-cast and spun alloys were studied by X-ray diffractometry （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. The hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of the alloys were measured with an automatically controlled Sieverts apparatus. The results show that the as-spun Mn-free alloy holds a typical nanocrystalline structure, whereas the as-spun alloys containing Mn display a nanocrystalline and amorphous structure, confirming that the substitution of Mn for Ni intensifies the glass forming ability of the Mg2Ni-type alloy. The hydrogen absorption and desorption capacities and kinetics of the alloys increase with increasing the spinning rate, for which the nanocrystalline and amorphous structure produced by the melt spinning is mainly responsible. The substitution of Mn for Ni evidently improves the hydrogen desorption performance. The hydrogen desorption capacities of the as-cast and spun alloys rise with the increase in the percentage of Mn substitution.
