With the effect of yttrium, both the crystallization temperature and exothermic peak shifted to higher temperatures, illustrating that the thermal stability could be improved. The addition of Y changed the crystallization process and final crystallization results. Moreover, the crystallites in the amorphous matrix became more homogeneous and smaller. Meanwhile, Y was useful for the passivation of oxygen in chemistry and restrained the negative effect of oxygen. The activation energies of the start of crystallization and peaking were 1.21 and 1.16 eV, respectively, according to the Kissinger equation.展开更多

Crystallization behavior and morphology of CMRB were systematically investigated. Scanning electronic microscopy （SEM） observations showed blurry interface of compatibilized common blend （CCB）. The crystallization behavior of neat iPP, CCB, microfibrillar reinforced iPP/PET blend （MRB） and CMRB was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） and polarized optical microscopy （POM）. The increase of crystallization temperature and crystallization rate during nonisothermal crystallization process indicated both PET particles and mierofibrils could serve as nucleating agents and PET microfibrils exhibited higher heterogeneous nucleation ability, which were also vividly revealed by results of POM. Compared with MRB sample, CMRB sample has lower crystallization temperature due to existence of PET microfibrils with smaller aspect ratio and wider distribution. In addition, since in situ compatibilizer tends to stay in the interphase, it could also hinder the diffusion ofiPP molecules to the surface of PET phase, leading to decrease of crystallization rate. Two-dimensional wide-angle X-ray diffi：action （2D-WAXD） was preformed to characterize the crystalline structure of the samples by injection molding, and it was found that well-developed PET microfibrils contained in MRB sample promoted formation of t-phase of/PP.展开更多

Dicumyl peroxide （DCP） and OVS were employed as a free radical initiator and a cross-linking agent, respectively. The chemical structure of these produced composites were identified by 1H/13C/29Si-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy （1H/13C/29Si-NMR） and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）. The melting behavior, non-isothermal crystallization, spherulite morphology and thermal stability property of PHBV/OVS composites were also investigated. The nucleation behaviors and crystallization rate of PHBV/OVS were significantly enhanced with the formation of cross-linked networks with different side-chains and cross-linking points. The red shift of crystalline peak temperature with addition of a small amount of OVS content evidenced the higher crystalline ability compared with the neat PHBV. However there was a threshold content, beyond which the crystallization rate weakened again. Additionally, the cross-linked structure of PHBV/OVS composites could be adjusted by changing the amount of OVS.展开更多

The results show that the static potential and polarizability of electroless Co-Ni-B alloy are remarkably improved as the plating is carried out in magnetic field in the presence of a little amount of cerium in plating bath. Because of the action of magnetic field and rare earth element cerium, the boron content in alloy decreases, while cobalt and nickel contents increase. As a result, the amorphous Co-Ni-B alloy transforms to the microcrystalline Co-Ni-B-Ce alloy when the plating is in general state, and the Co-Ni-B alloy makes a crystalline transformation because of the action of magnetic field and rare earth element cerium.展开更多

It was found that the tensile modulus of the composites was increased with the addition of CNFs, but their elongation at break and fracture strain energy were decreased, while the tensile strength of the composites was firstly increased and then decreased due to the agglomeration of CNFs at higher loading. Nonisothermal crystallization analysis showed that the CNFs played a role as nucleating agent in PP matrix, which led to increment in the crystallization rate and the degree of crystallinity of PP. Moreover, X-ray diffraction studies showed that the CNFs incorporated in the PP matrix favored the growth of （040）-oriented PP crystals. With the increase in the CNF content, the nucleating and orientation roles of the CNFs were obviously enhanced.展开更多

The total crystallization rate of PLLA was Mn-dependent, which reached the maximum value for PLLA with Mn of 18.6 kg/mol. In addition, when Mn of PLLA was 18.6 kg/mol, the melting enthalpy（ΔHm） showed a maximum value（87.1 J/g）, which was the highest reported value till now. The critical temperature for change of crystal formation from ？-form to ？-form crystals increased in the isothermal crystallization process with Mn increasing. In the reheating procedure, high-Mn PLLA demonstrated a small exothermal peak prior to the dominant melting peak, corresponding to crystal transition from ？- to ？-form, but low-Mn PLLA didn＇t show the peak of crystal transition. These different crystallization and melting behaviors were attributed to the different chain mobility of PLLA with different Mn.展开更多

The samples were isothermal annealed for 30 min under high magnetic field and no field,respectively. Microstructure transformation during crystallization was identified by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the crystallizations of Fe78Si13B9 metallic glass processed under different conditions were that the precipitation of dendrite α-Fe（Si） and spherulite （Fe,Si）3B phases forms amorphous matrix and then the metastable （Fe,Si）3B phase transforms into the stable Fe2B phase. The grain size of the crystals is smaller and more homogeneous for the isothermal annealed samples under high magnetic field in comparison with that under no field indicating that the crystallization behavior of Fe78Si13B9 metallic glass is suppressed by high magnetic field.展开更多

The morphology and crystallization behavior of the alloy material were investigated by means of SEM, POM and DSC. The SEM study of the alloy samples revealed that PPS and PETG comprised an incompatible system and the interface structure of two phases could be observed distinctly when the composition of the binary alloy was being changed. The POM results had revealed that incorporation of PETG into PPS could lead to formation of larger spherulite crystals in the course of PPS crystallization, but small and grainy spherulite crystals appeared with further increase in the PETG concentration. The DSC analyses revealed that addition of PETG to the alloy composition could shift the PPS crystallization temperature towards the high-temperature region.展开更多

In this work, crystallization behavior of NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glasses doped with Nd2O3 was investigated. The crystallization kinetic parameters including the crystallization apparent activation energy （E） and the Avrami parameter （n） were also measured. The results show that the NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glassceramics with the NaxCa2Si3O9 crystal as primary phase can be highly crystalized as above 90%. The Nd2O3 doping has a significant influence on the crystallization apparent activation energy and the Avrami parameter, which affect the crystallization behavior and morphology of the transparent glass-ceramics of this system.展开更多

It was found that the as spun ribbons crystallize in two steps: at first the Nd 3Fe 62 B 14 + α Fe phases are formed and subsequently Nd 3Fe 62 B 14 transformed to Nd 2Fe 14 B and α Fe upon heating above 680?℃. The effective activation energy of two crystallization peaks are 332.0?kJ/mol and 470.5?kJ/mol, respectively. As the wheel speed increases, the magnetic properties of the magnet change obviously. When the wheel speed is 18?m/s, the best magnetic properties of the magnet was obtained after the sample was annealed at 690?℃ for 8?min: B r=0.74T, i H c=421.7?kA/m, ( BH ) max =64.5?kJ/m 3.展开更多

It is found that the isothermal crystallization time(tIC) of PBS has an effect on the crystallization behavior of PTMO component. Perturbation correlation move-window two-dimensional(PCMW2 D) correlation analysis and generalized 2 D correlation analysis(2 DIR) were performed to explore the origin of this phenomenon. The PCMW2 D and 2 DIR results show that the correlation intensity peak observed at around 20 ℃ for PTMO is due to the PTMO chains movements forced by the PBS chains folded movements. If tIC of PBS at temperature of 20 ℃ is prolonged, more PTMO components are incorporated in the region between PBS lamellae and the peak at-7.6 ℃(belonging to less-constricted PTMO chains) changes smaller and even disappears, while the peak at-16.3 ℃ belonging to more-constricted PTMO chains gets bigger. A crystallization model was also established in this study. The results of tensile testing showed that tensile strength slightly increased and elongation at break decreased with increasing heat treatment time at 40 ℃.展开更多

The results show that the creep behavior of the crystals is strongly dependent on the angle between the lamellar boundaries and loading axis. The samples with the angle φ=45 deg. have the lowest creep resistance, while the samples with φ=0 deg., rather than φ=90 deg.,show the strongest creep resistance. The stress exponent and creep activation energy for the power law creep vary with the orientations of samples, which indicates that the creep mechanisms of the samples with different angle φ are quite different.The deformation substructure has been examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM),which shows that both gliding, perhaps also climbing, of dislocations and twinning contribute to the creep deformation with some particular observation in the samples with φ=90 deg. in which rotation of the γ plates across a true twin boundary was observed, which indicates the deformation mechanism of the samples is different from the samples in other orientations.展开更多

Dicumyl peroxide （DCP） and OVS were employed as a free radical initiator and a cross-linking agent, respectively. The chemical structure of these produced composites were identified by 1H/13C/29Si-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy （1H/13C/29Si-NMR） and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）. The melting behavior, non-isothermal crystallization, spherulite morphology and thermal stability property of PHBV/OVS composites were also investigated. The nucleation behaviors and crystallization rate of PHBV/OVS were significantly enhanced with the formation of cross-linked networks with different side-chains and cross-linking points. The red shift of crystalline peak temperature with addition of a small amount of OVS content evidenced the higher crystalline ability compared with the neat PHBV. However there was a threshold content, beyond which the crystallization rate weakened again. Additionally, the cross-linked structure of PHBV/OVS composites could be adjusted by changing the amount of OVS.

文摘The electrochemical property, chemical composition and crystal structure of electroless Co-Ni-B-Ce alloy plated in general state as well as in magnetic field were studied using potentiometer, plasma emission spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscope. The results show that the static potential and polarizability of electroless Co-Ni-B alloy are remarkably improved as the plating is carried out in magnetic field in the presence of a little amount of cerium in plating bath. Because of the action of magnetic field and rare earth element cerium, the boron content in alloy decreases, while cobalt and nickel contents increase. As a result, the amorphous Co-Ni-B alloy transforms to the microcrystalline Co-Ni-B-Ce alloy when the plating is in general state, and the Co-Ni-B alloy makes a crystalline transformation because of the action of magnetic field and rare earth element cerium.

文摘Carbon nanofiber （CNF）-reinforced polypropylene （CNF/PP） composites with different CNF contents were prepared by melt mixing, and the mechanical properties and crystallization behavior of the CNF/PP composites obtained were investigated. It was found that the tensile modulus of the composites was increased with the addition of CNFs, but their elongation at break and fracture strain energy were decreased, while the tensile strength of the composites was firstly increased and then decreased due to the agglomeration of CNFs at higher loading. Nonisothermal crystallization analysis showed that the CNFs played a role as nucleating agent in PP matrix, which led to increment in the crystallization rate and the degree of crystallinity of PP. Moreover, X-ray diffraction studies showed that the CNFs incorporated in the PP matrix favored the growth of （040）-oriented PP crystals. With the increase in the CNF content, the nucleating and orientation roles of the CNFs were obviously enhanced.
文摘X-ray powder diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were applied for characterization of Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramic powders doped with Eu2O3,Gd2O3 and Er2O3,respectively,in the conditions of different heat-treatment temperatures and with various amounts.The powders were derived from the polyacrylamide gel method.The results show that,the wet gels prepared by polyacrylamide perform a unique crystallization behavior in the process of drying,comparing with some customary preparation such as melt processing.The main crystal phase and crystallization sequence of Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 micro-powders have no distinct with addition of Eu2O3,Gd2O3 or Er2O3,while the crystallization temperature of the β-spodumene decreased and the amount of the β-spodumene increased.

文摘For a polymer/polymer dismissible blend with two crystallizable components,the crystallization behavior of different components and the reciprocal influences between different crystals are interesting and important,but did not investigate in detail.In this study,the L-poly(lactic acid)/polypropylene(PLLA/PP)blends with different weight ratios were prepared by melt mixing and the crystallization behavior of the blends were investigated.Results showed that the crystalline structures of PLLA and PP were not altered by the composition.For the crystallization of PLLA,both the diffusion of chain segments and crystallization rate were enhanced under the existence of PP crystals.For the crystallization of PP,its crystallization rate was depressed under the existence of amorphous PLLA molecular chains.When the PP crystallized from the existence of PLLA crystals,although the diffusion rate of PP was reduced by PLLA crystals,the nucleation positions were obviously enhanced,which accelerated the formation of PP crystals.This investigation would supply more basic data for the application of PLLA/PP blend.

文摘The high effective nano-hybrid pour point depressant(PPD)has attracted extensive attention for its po-tential application in improving the cold flow properties of diesel fuel.In this paper,the nano-hybrid PPD was prepared by melt-blending method using three different alkyl chain lengths(i.e.,tetradecyl,hexade-cyl,and octodecyl)of n-alkyl methacrylate-maleic anhydride copolymers(R 1 MC-MA,R 1=C_(14),C_(16),C_(18))and SiO_(2)nanoparticles.The effect of those nano-hybrid PPDs on the cold filter plugging point(CFPP)and solidifying point(SP)depressing of diesel fuel were studied.Results indicated that nano-hybrid PPD showed much better performance on diesel fuel.The diesel fuel treated with 0.2 wt%C_(14)MC-MA/SiO_(2)nano-hybrid PPD exhibited the best depression in CFPP and SP by 6℃ and 18℃,respectively,which higher than that of single C 14 MC-MA.Viscosity-temperature curves and polarized optical microscopy were conducted to explore the performance mechanism;and results presented that nano-hybrid PPD of C_(14)MC-MA/SiO_(2)could effectively lower the low-temperature viscosity,and modify the crystallization behavior and crystal morphology of diesel.Therefore,the cold flow properties of diesel were significantly improved.

文摘In this study, a series of monodispersed poly（L-lactide）（PLLA） were synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization with Schiff base aluminum catalyst, and the effects of the number-average molecular weight（Mn） on the crystallization and melting behaviors of PLLA were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry（DSC） and wide-angle X-ray diffraction（WAXD）. The total crystallization rate of PLLA was Mn-dependent, which reached the maximum value for PLLA with Mn of 18.6 kg/mol. In addition, when Mn of PLLA was 18.6 kg/mol, the melting enthalpy（ΔHm） showed a maximum value（87.1 J/g）, which was the highest reported value till now. The critical temperature for change of crystal formation from ？-form to ？-form crystals increased in the isothermal crystallization process with Mn increasing. In the reheating procedure, high-Mn PLLA demonstrated a small exothermal peak prior to the dominant melting peak, corresponding to crystal transition from ？- to ？-form, but low-Mn PLLA didn＇t show the peak of crystal transition. These different crystallization and melting behaviors were attributed to the different chain mobility of PLLA with different Mn.

文摘The effects of high magnetic field on the crystallization behavior of the Fe78Si13B9 metallic glass ribbon were studied. The samples were isothermal annealed for 30 min under high magnetic field and no field,respectively. Microstructure transformation during crystallization was identified by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the crystallizations of Fe78Si13B9 metallic glass processed under different conditions were that the precipitation of dendrite α-Fe（Si） and spherulite （Fe,Si）3B phases forms amorphous matrix and then the metastable （Fe,Si）3B phase transforms into the stable Fe2B phase. The grain size of the crystals is smaller and more homogeneous for the isothermal annealed samples under high magnetic field in comparison with that under no field indicating that the crystallization behavior of Fe78Si13B9 metallic glass is suppressed by high magnetic field.

文摘Well-defined polypropylene grafted silica nanoparticles(PP-g-SiO_(2))were prepared through the reaction of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene(PP-g-MAH)with amino-functionalized silica(SiO_(2)-NH_(2))by the'grafting-to'method.The grafting density of PP-g-SiO_(2) is found to be controlled by the concentration of silane coupling agent 3-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethyl amino]propyl trimethoxy silane(TAMS).The maximum grafting density of grafted PP-g-MAH chains with molecular weight of 9100 g/mol could reach 0.34 chains/nm~2,when the critical concentration of TAMS was 0.0194 mol/L.The critical concentration of TAMS can be explained by the maximum amounts of primary amino groups,which can totally react with PP-g-MAH on the surface of SiO_(2)-NH_(2),when the silane monolayer is formed.The synthesized PP-g-SiO_(2)with different molecular weights was mixed with PP by solution mixing to form a series of nanocomposites.The crystallization temperature(T_(c))of nanocomposites increased significantly with the particle loading.The PP-g-SiO_(2) with high molecular weight of grafted chains exhibits a high nucleation ability at 1 wt%nanoparticle loading in PP/PP-g-SiO_(2)nanocomposites.In summary,we provide an effective method to synthesize the well-defined PP-g-SiO_(2)with controlled grafting density,which shows excellent nucleation ability.
文摘A binary alloy consisting of poly（phenylene-sulfide） （PPS）/poly（ethylene terephthalate-co-l,4- cyclohexanedimethanol） （PETG） was prepared by the melt blending technology using a twin-screw extruder. The morphology and crystallization behavior of the alloy material were investigated by means of SEM, POM and DSC. The SEM study of the alloy samples revealed that PPS and PETG comprised an incompatible system and the interface structure of two phases could be observed distinctly when the composition of the binary alloy was being changed. The POM results had revealed that incorporation of PETG into PPS could lead to formation of larger spherulite crystals in the course of PPS crystallization, but small and grainy spherulite crystals appeared with further increase in the PETG concentration. The DSC analyses revealed that addition of PETG to the alloy composition could shift the PPS crystallization temperature towards the high-temperature region.

文摘For the desirable laser optical property, transition metals or rare-earths are always doped into parent glasses as active ions, and this doping will affect the crystallization of the precursor glasses inevitably. In this work, crystallization behavior of NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glasses doped with Nd2O3 was investigated. The crystallization kinetic parameters including the crystallization apparent activation energy （E） and the Avrami parameter （n） were also measured. The results show that the NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glassceramics with the NaxCa2Si3O9 crystal as primary phase can be highly crystalized as above 90%. The Nd2O3 doping has a significant influence on the crystallization apparent activation energy and the Avrami parameter, which affect the crystallization behavior and morphology of the transparent glass-ceramics of this system.
文摘The crystallization behavior of melt spun Nd 8.5 Fe 78 Co 5Cu 1Nb 1B 6.5 ribbons was investigated using dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X ray diffractometry (XRD). It was found that the as spun ribbons crystallize in two steps: at first the Nd 3Fe 62 B 14 + α Fe phases are formed and subsequently Nd 3Fe 62 B 14 transformed to Nd 2Fe 14 B and α Fe upon heating above 680?℃. The effective activation energy of two crystallization peaks are 332.0?kJ/mol and 470.5?kJ/mol, respectively. As the wheel speed increases, the magnetic properties of the magnet change obviously. When the wheel speed is 18?m/s, the best magnetic properties of the magnet was obtained after the sample was annealed at 690?℃ for 8?min: B r=0.74T, i H c=421.7?kA/m, ( BH ) max =64.5?kJ/m 3.

文摘The effect of crystallization conditions of poly(butylene succinate)(PBS) component on the crystallization of poly(tetramethylene oxide)(PTMO) component in their segment block copolymer, with a higher PTMO content(PTMO mass fraction is 67%), was investigated by DSC and temperature-dependent FTIR. It is found that the isothermal crystallization time(tIC) of PBS has an effect on the crystallization behavior of PTMO component. Perturbation correlation move-window two-dimensional(PCMW2 D) correlation analysis and generalized 2 D correlation analysis(2 DIR) were performed to explore the origin of this phenomenon. The PCMW2 D and 2 DIR results show that the correlation intensity peak observed at around 20 ℃ for PTMO is due to the PTMO chains movements forced by the PBS chains folded movements. If tIC of PBS at temperature of 20 ℃ is prolonged, more PTMO components are incorporated in the region between PBS lamellae and the peak at-7.6 ℃(belonging to less-constricted PTMO chains) changes smaller and even disappears, while the peak at-16.3 ℃ belonging to more-constricted PTMO chains gets bigger. A crystallization model was also established in this study. The results of tensile testing showed that tensile strength slightly increased and elongation at break decreased with increasing heat treatment time at 40 ℃.
文摘Creep behavior of γ-TiAl polysynthetically twinned (PST) crystals has been investigated at temperature between 700 and 800℃. The results show that the creep behavior of the crystals is strongly dependent on the angle between the lamellar boundaries and loading axis. The samples with the angle φ=45 deg. have the lowest creep resistance, while the samples with φ=0 deg., rather than φ=90 deg.,show the strongest creep resistance. The stress exponent and creep activation energy for the power law creep vary with the orientations of samples, which indicates that the creep mechanisms of the samples with different angle φ are quite different.The deformation substructure has been examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM),which shows that both gliding, perhaps also climbing, of dislocations and twinning contribute to the creep deformation with some particular observation in the samples with φ=90 deg. in which rotation of the γ plates across a true twin boundary was observed, which indicates the deformation mechanism of the samples is different from the samples in other orientations.
