The main reason is that the technical problems related to the internal standard and the selection of quantitative peaks are not well solved, and the accuracy and precision of the results are not satisfactory. This study employed the concept of mass absorption coefficient based on the internal standard method, and the full spectrum fitting and quantitative methods were used to solve the above technical problems. The sample was blended. the internal standard substance of zinc oxide was fully ground, and tablets were prepared by positive pressure method. Under certain instrumental conditions, the PXRD pattern was obtained by scanning. The percentage of gypsum fibrosum in Xiaokening tablet was obtained by quantitative analysis of full spectrum fitting internal standard by TOPAS software. The method was investigated by methodology. At the same time, the method was compared by ion chromatography, and SPSS software was used to make a significant t test on the results of the two methods. After the investigation, the average standard recovery rate of CaSO4-2H2O was 99.06%(RSD = 3.02%);and the recovery rate for simulated samples was 96.7%. The method had good specificity. After statistical analysis, there was no significant difference between the new PXRD method and the traditional method of ion chromatography.展开更多

The results show that the stabilities of supersaturated solid solution (SSS) of Zn-Al alloy and α' phase formed by quenching would reduce with the increase of Zn content and the precipitation of η-Zn phases even when aging at ambient temperature, so that the exothermic precipitation peak in DSC curve would disappear. The activation energy of the η-Zn precipitation and the reaction enthalpy were calculated and measured. The kinetics of α' decomposition or η-Zn formation was determined by XRD. The microstructure change during aging was observed by TEM.展开更多

From these results, the stress state of a given phase in a duplex TiAl based alloy under a uniaxial tensile loading has been characterized by X ray diffraction. The results show that the X ray elastic constants and the microscopic stresses of the given phase are different from the apparent elastic constants and the macroscopic stresses of the alloy. The reason of the different distribution of the alloy was also discussed. [展开更多
The silicon-containing poly (amic acid)s were synthesized from bis (3, 4-dicarboxyphenyl) dimethylsilane dianhydride (SIDA), pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 4,4′-oxydianiline (4,4'-ODA) in N, N-dimethylacetam...The silicon-containing poly (amic acid)s were synthesized from bis (3, 4-dicarboxyphenyl) dimethylsilane dianhydride (SIDA), pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 4,4′-oxydianiline (4,4'-ODA) in N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The poly (amic acid) films were obtained by solution-cast method from DMAc solutions and thermally converted into transparent, flexible and tough polyimide films. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction diagrams revealed that all the polyimides possessed amorphous character, and the regulation of those polyimides were decreased with the increase of the molar ratio of SIDA to PMDA. Differential scanning calorimeter measurements showed that the introduction of SIDA to polyimide backbone would make glass transition temperature shift to lower temperature. Thermogravimetric analyses indicated that the silicon-containing polyimides lowered decomposition temperature as compared with PMDA/4, 4′-ODA polyimides. However, UV-visible transmission and reflection spectra showed that the optical transparency of silicon-containing polyimide thin films was superior to that of PMDA/4, 4'-ODA polyimide thin films.展开更多

In this work, IG-MWCNTs were functionalized with tetraethylenepentamine(TEPA) for CO2capture. The TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs were characterized with various experimental methods including N2adsorption/desorption isotherms, elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Both the adsorption isotherms of IGMWCNTs-n and the isosteric heats of different adsorption capacities were obtained from experiments. TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs were also shown to have high CO2adsorption capacity comparable to that of TEPA impregnated P-MWCNTs. The adsorption capacity of IG-MWCNTs based adsorbents was in the range of 2.145 to 3.088 mmol/g, depending on adsorption temperatures. Having the advantages of low-cost and high adsorption capacity, TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs seem to be a promising adsorbent for CO2capture from flue gas.展开更多

The dependences of the microstructure and optoelectronic properties of GTZO thin films on Ar gas pressure were observed. The X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) results show that all the deposited films are polycrystalline with a hexagonal structure and have a preferred orientation along the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate. With the increment of Ar gas pressure, the microstructure and optoelectronic properties of GTZO thin films will be changed. When Ar gas pressure is 0.4 Pa, the deposited films possess the best crystal quality and optoelectronic properties.展开更多

It was found that, high residual stress existed in the composite and residual stress distribution in each direction are not uniform. Relaxation process of residual stress in the composite was dynamically measured during annealing at high temperature. It is verified that the relaxation of residual stress obeys the power law at high temperature. With the creep mechanism, the relaxation behavior of residual stresses at high temperature was analyzed. The results show that, the stress exponent and activation energy for stress relaxation of the composite are obviously higher than those of the matrix alloy.展开更多

The results reveal that trace yttrium mainly located in the platelet precipitates makes the crystal structure changed. The platelet precipitates become smaller, denser and rather homogeneous with appropriate yttrium addition. Compared with the conventional low expansion superalloy, the misfit of the platelet phase with the matrix in the yttrium-containing low expansion superalloy decreases from 0.7% to 0.07%, which indicates very low stress at the interface.展开更多

The disappearance of elemental Fe and Cu X-ray diffraction (XRD) peaks and the presence of bcc structural XRD peaks illustrate the formation of a nanocrystalline single-phase bcc-Fe80Cu20 solid solution. From the EXAFS result, the clear observation of Cu atoms taking on bcc coordination in the solid solution and Fe atoms remaining bcc structure further verifies the reality of atomic alloying between Fe and Cu atoms and the lattice change of Cu from fcc to bcc. However, the supersaturated bcc solid solution is not chemically uniform, i.e., some regions are rich in Fe atoms and other regions rich in Cu atoms.展开更多

Structural, electrical and optical properties of the films are investigated using X-ray diffraction （XRD）, atomic force microscopy （AFM）, ultraviolet-visible （UV-VIS） spectroscopy and electrical measurements. XRD patterns show that the preferential orientation ofpolycrystalline structure changes from （400） to （222） crystal plane, and the crystallite size increases with the increase of substrate temperature. AFM analyses reveal that the film is very smooth at low temperature. The root mean square （RMS） roughness and the average roughness are 2.16 nm and 1.64 nm, respectively. The obtained lowest resistivity of the films is 1.2 × 10^4 Ω-cm, and the resistivity decreases with the increase of substrate temperature. The highest Hall mobility and carrier concentration are 16.5 cmVV.s and 1.88× 10^21 cm^-3, respectively. Band gap energy of the films depends on substrate temperature, which is varied from 3.49 eV to 3.63 eV.展开更多

X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to study the microstructure of the quasi-crystalline alloy. Isothermal weight gain of the Al-Cu-Fe quasi-crystal at elevated temperature in dry air was measured by means of a thermal balance and the oxidation behavior was evaluated by oxidation kinetic curves, from which it was deduced that the quasi-crystal exhibits good oxidation resistance. The surface morphologies of the Al-Cu-Fe quasi-crystal after isothermal oxidation at 700°C and 800°C for different times were observed. The oxidation resistance of quasi-crystalline powder and normal crystalline powder in the Al-Cu-Fe system was also quantitatively compared in quantity.展开更多
