The isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests were conducted at 900 °C for 1000 h and 120 cycles to check the oxidation resistance of the coating. The microstructure and phase transformation of the coating before and after the oxidation were studied by SEM, XRD and EPMA. The results indicate that the diffusion coating shows good oxidation resistance. The mass gain of the diffusion coating is only a quarter of that of bare alloy. After oxidation, the diffusion coating is degraded into three layers: an inner TiAl2 layer, a two-phase intermediate layer composed of a Ti(Al,Si)3 matrix and Si-rich precipitates, and a porous layer because of the inter-diffusion between the coating and substrate.展开更多

It was found that the complicated chemical reactions and diffusion processes happened in the interface area between BN-layer and Ni25.8A19.6Ta8.3 during the hot pressing at 1 200-1 400 ℃. A continuous AlN-layer was formed at the interface due to the reaction between NiAl and BN. At the same time, Cr diffused extensively into the BN-layer and reacted with boron to form Cr boride precipitates (CrsB3). In addition, a few particles of Ta-rich phase were also precipitated in NiAl matrix near the interface.展开更多

The magnetic properties and microstructure of magnets were systematically studied. The coercivity and remanence of grain boundary diffusion magnet are improved by 112% and reduced by 26% compared with those of the original magnet, respectively. Meanwhile, both the remanence temperature coefficient(α) and the coercivity temperature coefficient(β) of the magnets are improved after diffusion treatment. Microstructure shows that Tb element enriches in the surface region of Nd2Fe(14)B grains and is expected to exist as(Nd,Tb)2Fe(14)B phase. Thus, the magneto-crystalline anisotropy field of the magnet improves remarkably. As a result, the sintered Nd-FeB magnets by grain boundary diffusion with TbH3 nanoparticles exhibit enhanced coercivity.展开更多

The produced diffusion bonded couples were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). SEM revealed the presences of the different reaction regions in the diffusion zone and “kirkendall voids” were observed in the interface. This study indicated the existences of Cu3 Ti, Cu and Ti phases in the diffusion zone of the joint confirmed by XRD. The microhardness tests revealed that the microhardness of TC4 jointing affected zone ( JAZ) is higher than the TC4 base materials, and transition zone close to TC4 possesses the highest microhardness value.展开更多

The alteration zone surrounding the Koktokay No.3 pegmatite is limited to 2.0 m, characterized by biotitization, tourmalization, and chloritization. In the altered host rocks, the contents of SiO2, MgO, MnO, Na2O, and TiO2 did not vary greatly.However, Al2O3 showed a weak decreasing trend with the increasing distance from the pegmatite contact zone, while Fe2O3 and CaO showed an increasing trend. The contents of Li, Rb, and Cs in the altered host rocks were much higher than those in the unaltered host rocks, decreasing with distance from the contact. The chondrite-normalized rare earth element(REE) pattern of the altered and unaltered host rock was right-inclined from La to Lu, but enriched in light REEs over heavy REEs after hydrothermal alteration. An isocon plot shows that some oxides migrated in with an order of P2O5〉K2O 〉TiO2〉Al2O3〉SiO2〉MnO≥MgO, while others migrated out with an order of Na2O 〉CaO 〉Fe2O3. For REEs, the migration ratios are positive values withCs 〉Rb 〉Li 〉Nb 〉Ta 〉Be, signifying that all REEs migrated from the exsolved magmatic fluid into the altered host rocks. It was concluded that diffusion was the only mechanism for migration of ore-forming elements in the alteration zone. The effective diffusion coefficients(Deff)of LiF, RbF, and CsF were estimated under a fluid temperature of 500–550℃. Using a function of concentration(C(x,t)) and distance(x), the order of migration distance was determined to be LiF 〉CsF 〉RbF, with diffusion times of (3.39 ± 0.35)× 10^6,(3.19 ± 0.28) × 10^5 and(6.33 ± 0.05) × 10^5 years, respectively.展开更多

The shear strength of Ti-14Al-21Nb-3Mo-V alloy diffusion bonding joint under pressure of 12 MPa at 990℃ for 70 min was obtained to 797.6 MPa which approaches the base material strength. In addition, a short-time diffosion bonding process was studied in order to decrease the bonding cost. With the deformation of the specimens of 2.5% and the bonding temperature of 990℃ for 15 min, the bonding strength could reach 801 MPa.展开更多

The interlayer alloy employed was Ni Mo Cr B powder alloy. The results show that the microstructure of the TLP diffusion bonded joints is a combination of γ solid solution (or a γ+γ′ structure) and borides. With the bonding time increasing, the quantity of the borides both in bonding seam and adjacent zones is gradually reduced, and the joint stress rupture property is improved. The obtained stress rupture property of the TLP bonded joints is on a level with the transverse property of IC6 base materials. [展开更多

The microstructure observation and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis show that the nitriding layer consists of compound layer (γ′-Fe4N) and diffusion layer (α-Fe). Lanthanum content profiles in nanocrystallized surface layer were measured using glow discharge spectometry(GDS). The results show that lanthanum can diffuse into the surface layer of the steel to a large depth. Based on the experimental results mentioned above, the diffusion coefficients and activation energy of lanthanum in γ′ phase are calculated to be 1.03×10 -15 cm2/s (350℃), 1.75×10 -15 cm2/s (410℃) and 31.313kJ/mol, respectively.展开更多

The critical current of superconductors was measured by four-point method. The results show that a diffusion layer has formed around the boundaries between the filaments and bronze matrix after 15 h heat treatment. The diffusion layer thickness keeps stable after heat treatment duration of 50~75 h. The stable and solid Nb 3 Sn layer is obtained in the sample after 100 h heat treatment. Excessive heat treatment would induce superconductivity degeneration because of superconductor grain coarsening. The characteristics of the element diffusion process were discussed. The diffusion of tin atom is the governing factor in diffusion. In this study, Nb_3_Sn superconductors with good superconducting property were fabricated successfully at 670 °C after 100h heat treatment.展开更多

The diffusion transition zone consisted of Fe3Al and a-Fe(Al) solid solution.Microhardness near the diffusion transition zone was HM 480~540. There was not brittle phase of high hardness inthe interface transition zone. This is favorable to enhance toughness of Fe3Al/Q235 diffusion joint.展开更多

文摘Grain boundary diffusion technique with TbH3 nanoparticles was applied to fabricate Tb-less sintered NdFe-B permanent magnets with high coercivity. The magnetic properties and microstructure of magnets were systematically studied. The coercivity and remanence of grain boundary diffusion magnet are improved by 112% and reduced by 26% compared with those of the original magnet, respectively. Meanwhile, both the remanence temperature coefficient(α) and the coercivity temperature coefficient(β) of the magnets are improved after diffusion treatment. Microstructure shows that Tb element enriches in the surface region of Nd2Fe(14)B grains and is expected to exist as(Nd,Tb)2Fe(14)B phase. Thus, the magneto-crystalline anisotropy field of the magnet improves remarkably. As a result, the sintered Nd-FeB magnets by grain boundary diffusion with TbH3 nanoparticles exhibit enhanced coercivity.

文摘Petrography and geochemistry of the altered and unaltered host rocks surrounding the Koktokay No.3 pegmatite revealed that the unaltered amphibolite is mainly composed of hornblende, plagioclase, and ilmenite.Beyond these primary components, the altered host rocks contain a few newly formed minerals, including biotite,tourmaline, chlorine, and muscovite. The alteration zone surrounding the Koktokay No.3 pegmatite is limited to 2.0 m, characterized by biotitization, tourmalization, and chloritization. In the altered host rocks, the contents of SiO2, MgO, MnO, Na2O, and TiO2 did not vary greatly.However, Al2O3 showed a weak decreasing trend with the increasing distance from the pegmatite contact zone, while Fe2O3 and CaO showed an increasing trend. The contents of Li, Rb, and Cs in the altered host rocks were much higher than those in the unaltered host rocks, decreasing with distance from the contact. The chondrite-normalized rare earth element(REE) pattern of the altered and unaltered host rock was right-inclined from La to Lu, but enriched in light REEs over heavy REEs after hydrothermal alteration. An isocon plot shows that some oxides migrated in with an order of P2O5〉K2O 〉TiO2〉Al2O3〉SiO2〉MnO≥MgO, while others migrated out with an order of Na2O 〉CaO 〉Fe2O3. For REEs, the migration ratios are positive values withCs 〉Rb 〉Li 〉Nb 〉Ta 〉Be, signifying that all REEs migrated from the exsolved magmatic fluid into the altered host rocks. It was concluded that diffusion was the only mechanism for migration of ore-forming elements in the alteration zone. The effective diffusion coefficients(Deff)of LiF, RbF, and CsF were estimated under a fluid temperature of 500–550℃. Using a function of concentration(C(x,t)) and distance(x), the order of migration distance was determined to be LiF 〉CsF 〉RbF, with diffusion times of (3.39 ± 0.35)× 10^6,(3.19 ± 0.28) × 10^5 and(6.33 ± 0.05) × 10^5 years, respectively.

文摘: The effects of diffusion bonding temperature and holding time on the joint strength of Ti3Al base alloy has been investigated in this paper. The shear strength of Ti-14Al-21Nb-3Mo-V alloy diffusion bonding joint under pressure of 12 MPa at 990℃ for 70 min was obtained to 797.6 MPa which approaches the base material strength. In addition, a short-time diffosion bonding process was studied in order to decrease the bonding cost. With the deformation of the specimens of 2.5% and the bonding temperature of 990℃ for 15 min, the bonding strength could reach 801 MPa.
文摘An investigation of transient liquid phase (TLP) diffusion bonding of a Ni 3Al base directionally solidified superalloy, IC6 alloy, was presented. The interlayer alloy employed was Ni Mo Cr B powder alloy. The results show that the microstructure of the TLP diffusion bonded joints is a combination of γ solid solution (or a γ+γ′ structure) and borides. With the bonding time increasing, the quantity of the borides both in bonding seam and adjacent zones is gradually reduced, and the joint stress rupture property is improved.

文摘Although aqueous zinc ion hybrid capacitors have advantageous integration of batteries and supercapacitors,they still suffer from the inherent problems of dendrite growth and interfacial side reactions on Zn anodes.Herein,a universal fast zinc-ion diffusion layer on a three-dimensional(3 D)mesh structure model is demonstrated to effectively improve Zn plating/stripping reversibility.The fast ion diffusion alloy layer accelerates the Zn^(2+)migration in an orderly manner to homogenize Zn^(2+)flux and overcomes the defects of the commercial mesh substrate,effectively avoiding dendrite growth and side reactions.Consequently,the proof-of-concept silver-zinc alloy modified stainless steel mesh delivers superb reversibility with the high coulombic efficiency over 99.4%at 4 mA cm^(-2)after 1600 cycles and excellent reliability of over 830 h at 1 mA cm^(-2),Its feasibility is also evidenced in commercial zinc ion hybrid capacitors with activated carbon as the cathode.This work enriches the fundamental comprehension of fast zinc-ion diffusion layer combined with a 3 D substrate on the Zn deposition and opens a universal approach to design advanced host for Zn electrodes in zinc ion hybrid capacitors.
文摘Plasma rare earth nitriding of nanocrystallized surface layer of 3J33B steel at 350 and 410℃ for different time was studied. The microstructure observation and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis show that the nitriding layer consists of compound layer (γ′-Fe4N) and diffusion layer (α-Fe). Lanthanum content profiles in nanocrystallized surface layer were measured using glow discharge spectometry(GDS). The results show that lanthanum can diffuse into the surface layer of the steel to a large depth. Based on the experimental results mentioned above, the diffusion coefficients and activation energy of lanthanum in γ′ phase are calculated to be 1.03×10 -15 cm2/s (350℃), 1.75×10 -15 cm2/s (410℃) and 31.313kJ/mol, respectively.

文摘The element diffusion process of Nb_3Sn superconductors by bronze route was studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The critical current of superconductors was measured by four-point method. The results show that a diffusion layer has formed around the boundaries between the filaments and bronze matrix after 15 h heat treatment. The diffusion layer thickness keeps stable after heat treatment duration of 50~75 h. The stable and solid Nb 3 Sn layer is obtained in the sample after 100 h heat treatment. Excessive heat treatment would induce superconductivity degeneration because of superconductor grain coarsening. The characteristics of the element diffusion process were discussed. The diffusion of tin atom is the governing factor in diffusion. In this study, Nb_3_Sn superconductors with good superconducting property were fabricated successfully at 670 °C after 100h heat treatment.

文摘Phase structure characteristics near the interface of Fe3Al/Q235 diffusion bonding are investigated by means of X raydiffraction (XRD), transmission electronic microscope (TEM) and electron diffraction, etc. The test results indicatedthat obviously a diffusion transition zone forms near the interface of Fe3Al/Q235 under the condition of heatingtemperature 1050~1100℃, holding time 60 min and pressure 9.8 MPa, which indicated that the diffusion interfaceof Fe3Al/Q235 was combined well. The diffusion transition zone consisted of Fe3Al and a-Fe(Al) solid solution.Microhardness near the diffusion transition zone was HM 480~540. There was not brittle phase of high hardness inthe interface transition zone. This is favorable to enhance toughness of Fe3Al/Q235 diffusion joint.

文摘Diffusion bonding of refractory Nb–Si-based alloy was performed with Ni/Al and Ti/Al nanolayers under the condition of 1473 K/30 MPa/60 min.The NbSS/Nb5Si3 in situ composite with the nominal composition of Nb–22 Ti–16 Si–3 Cr–3 Al–2 Hf was used as the parent material.The joint microstructures were examined by using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer.Shear test was conducted for the bonded joints at room temperature.Within the joint bonded with Ni/Al multilayer,element diffusion occurred between the base metal and the nanolayer,with the reaction products of AlNb2+Ni3 Al,NiAl and AlNi2 Ti phases.The average shear strength was 182 MPa.While using Ti/Al multilayer,the interface mainly consisted of TiAl,(Ti,Nb)Al and(Ti,Nb)2 Al phases,and the corresponding joints exhibited an increased strength of 228 MPa.In this case,the fracture mainly took place in the TiAl phase and presented a typical brittle characteristic.

文摘As essential electrochromic(EC) materials are related to energy savings in fenestration technology,tungsten oxide(WO3) films have been intensively studied recently.In order to achieve better understanding of the mechanism of EC properties,and thus facilitate optimization of device performance,clarification of the correlation between cation storage and transfer properties and the coloration performance is needed.In this study,transparent polycrystalline and amorphous WO3 thin films were deposited on SnO2:F-coated glass substrates by the pulsed laser deposition technique.Investigation into optical transmittance in a wavelength range of 400-800 nm measured at a current density of 130 μA·cm-2 with the applied potential ranging from 3.2 to 2.2 V indicates that polycrystalline films have a larger optical modulation of ~ 30% at 600 nm and a larger coloration switch time of 95 s in the whole wavelength range compared with amorphous films(~ 24% and 50 s).Meanwhile,under the same conditions,polycrystalline films show a larger lithium storage capacity corresponding to a Li/W ratio of 0.5,a smaller lithium diffusion coefficient(2×10-12cm2·s-1 for Li/W=0.24) compared with the amorphous ones,which have a Li/W ratio of 0.29 and a coefficient of ~2.5×10-11cm2·s-1 as Li/W=0.24.These results demonstrate that the large optical modulation relates to the large lithium storage capacity,and the fast coloration transition is associated with fast lithium diffusion.
