The cyclic oxidation at 800 ℃ and hot corrosion in molten 75% Na2SO4+25% NaC1 at 800 ℃ of the three different chromizing coatings were investigated. The effects of Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 on the cyclic oxidation and hot corrosion behavior of the chromizing coatings were discussed. Microstructure results show that the codeposited Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 particles significantly retard the grain growth of the chromizing coating, which increases the cyclic oxidation and hot corrosion resistance of the chromizing coatings, due to the more rapid formation of purer and denser chromia scnle展开更多

The results show that the annealing treatment leads to the reaction of Ni and Al to form intermetallics and the coarsened Ni grains that are doped with a certain amount of Al atoms diffused from the nanoparticles. Cyclic oxidation in air at 1 000 ℃ indicates that the scale spallation resistance of the annealed Ni-Al nanocomposite increases with the increase of annealing time, due to prevention of the composite intergranular cracking during the cycling, reduction of numerous surface NiO nodules formed on the scale spalled area and prevention of internal oxidation.展开更多

The 40 μm thick CoCrA1Y coating has a cyclic oxidation life of around 160 h, and the oxidation constant is 1.915× 10^-7 mg4.cm^-8.s-1. However, severe spallation of the oxides containing Co, Cr, Ni, Ta and Ti occurs with longer cyclic oxidation. The degradation in oxidation resistance for the coating is related to the depletion of A1 due to the oxide spallation and interdiffu- sion. Severe interdiffusion between the coating and underlying substrate occurs at 1 050 ℃. The composition of the substrate has an important effect on the thermal cycling lifetime of the coating. The influencing mechanism is discussed.展开更多

The oxidation mechanism of 9Cr-1Mo steel in 10%H2O+90%Ar atmosphere was discussed. The thermal stress was evaluated in two oxide layers to illustrate the spallation of the oxide layer. The experimental results indicate that there exists a duplex oxide scale with an outer layer of Fe2O3 and an inner layer of mixed (Fe, Cr)3O4 formed on 9Cr-1Mo steel during cyclic oxidation. Some cracks generated in both inner and outer oxide layers. Parts of oxide scales spalled from substrate during the cyclic oxidation. A higher tensile stress in the oxide layer is formed at the early oxidation stage than at the later oxidation stage during heating. This tensile stress results in the formation of cracks in the oxide layer.展开更多

文摘In this work,we constructed a three-dimensional electrochemical system(3D-ECO),which included the cathode and anode electrode plates,as well as the screening of three-dimensional particle electrodes and parameter opti-mization,for the degradation of landfill leachate(LL)containing elevated levels of tetracycline(TC),and explored its mechanism of action.Firstly,titanium-based ruthenium-iridium(Ti/RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)),titanium-based ruthenium-iridium-platinum(Ti/Pt-RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)),and titanium-based tin-antimony(Ti/SnO_(2)-Sb_(2)O_(3))were employed as an-odes in the electrocatalytic oxidation system,with titanium and stainless steel plates serving as cathodes,to construct the optimal two-dimensional electrocatalytic oxidation system(2D-ECO)through cross-comparison ex-periments.Subsequently,using granular activated carbon(GAC),coconut shell biochar(CBC),walnut shell carbon(WBC),and bamboo charcoal(BBC)as particle electrodes,a 3D-ECO system was developed.The influence of var-ious operational parameters on treating TC-containing LL was investigated.The optimal operating parameters obtained from the study was:pH=5,current density of 30 mA/cm^(2),particle dosage of 7 g/L,particle size ranging from 1.70 to 2.00 mm,and electrode spacing of 4 cm.Under these conditions,the COD removal rate of 3D-ECO within three hours was 90.25%,the TC removal rate was 72.41%,and the NH_(3)-N removal rate was 39.52%.The removal of TC followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model.Additionally,degradation mechanisms were elucidated through electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)spectrometer and Tert-Butanol(TBA)quenching experiments,indicating that the degradation primarily occurred through a non-radical(1O_(2))pathway.This re-search offers a comprehensive analysis of the simultaneous breakdown of intricate LL matrices and TC,enhancing our comprehension of the degradation processes and underlying mechanisms.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘Investigating structural and hydroxyl group effects in electrooxidation of alcohols to value-added products by solid-acid electrocatalysts is essential for upgrading biomass alcohols.Herein,we report efficient electrocatalytic oxidations of saturated alcohols(C_(1)-C_(6))to selectively form formate using Ni Co hydroxide(Ni Co-OH)derived Ni Co_(2)O_(4)solid-acid electrocatalysts with balanced Lewis acid(LASs)and Brønsted acid sites(BASs).Thermal treatment transforms BASs-rich(89.6%)Ni Co-OH into Ni Co_(2)O_(4)with nearly equal distribution of LASs(53.1%)and BASs(46.9%)which synergistically promote adsorption and activation of OH-and alcohol molecules for enhanced oxidation activity.In contrast,BASs-enriched Ni Co-OH facilitates formation of higher valence metal sites,beneficial for water oxidation.The combined experimental studies and theoretical calculation imply the oxidation ability of C1-C6alcohols increases as increased number of hydroxyl groups and decreased HOMO-LUMO gaps:methanol(C_(1))<ethylene glycol(C_(2))<glycerol(C3)<meso-erythritol(C4)<xylitol(C5)<sorbitol(C6),while the formate selectivity shows the opposite trend from 100 to 80%.This study unveils synergistic roles of LASs and BASs,as well as hydroxyl group effect in electro-upgrading of alcohols using solid-acid electrocatalysts.

文摘Chromium coatings with and without Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 particles were prepared by chromizing the as-deposited Ni-film with and without Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 particles using a conventional pack-cementation method at 800 ℃. The cyclic oxidation at 800 ℃ and hot corrosion in molten 75% Na2SO4+25% NaC1 at 800 ℃ of the three different chromizing coatings were investigated. The effects of Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 on the cyclic oxidation and hot corrosion behavior of the chromizing coatings were discussed. Microstructure results show that the codeposited Al_2O_3 or Y_2O_3 particles significantly retard the grain growth of the chromizing coating, which increases the cyclic oxidation and hot corrosion resistance of the chromizing coatings, due to the more rapid formation of purer and denser chromia scnle

文摘An electrodeposited Ni-Al nanocomposite having a nanocrystalline Ni matrix dispersing Al nanoparticles was annealed in vacuum at 500 ℃ for different time (3, 5 and 8 h, respectively). The results show that the annealing treatment leads to the reaction of Ni and Al to form intermetallics and the coarsened Ni grains that are doped with a certain amount of Al atoms diffused from the nanoparticles. Cyclic oxidation in air at 1 000 ℃ indicates that the scale spallation resistance of the annealed Ni-Al nanocomposite increases with the increase of annealing time, due to prevention of the composite intergranular cracking during the cycling, reduction of numerous surface NiO nodules formed on the scale spalled area and prevention of internal oxidation.

文摘(TiB2+TiC)/Ni3Al composites were prepared by mechanical alloying of elemental powders and subsequently spark plasma sintering.Microstructure of(TiB2+TiC)/Ni3Al composite sintered at 950°C was finer than that of composite sintered at 1050°C.The influence of grain size on cyclic oxidation behavior was investigated.Cyclic oxidation results showed that the composite sintered at 950°C had smaller mass gains than the composite sintered at 1050°C.XRD and EDS results indicate that finer grain size is beneficial for increasing the oxidation resistance by improving the formation of a continuous TiO2 outer layer and a continuous Al2O3 inner layer on the surface of the composites sintered at 950°C.

文摘Cyclic oxidation test is a fundamental method to assess lifetime of materials in high temperature environment.Cycle length or cyclic frequency is one important variable in cyclic oxidation testing.In present work,cyclic oxidation tests were performed on cast K38 alloys with 0 wt.%,0.1 wt.%,and 0.5 wt.% yttrium additions at 1 273 K respectively.Two cyclic frequencies were used to investigate the influence of cycle length (1 h vs.20 h) on the high temperature oxidation behavior of superalloy.The results showed that the degradation of cast K38 alloy critically was dependent on the cyclic frequency.The yttrium addition was beneficial to reducing scale-growth rate,improving the scale adhesion and stress releasing,thereby increased the spallation resistance.It could be drawn that the effect of cyclic frequency was highly dependent on the scale adherence to the substrate.

文摘A low-diffusion Ni Re Pt Al coating((Ni,Pt)Al outer layer in addition to a Re-rich diffusion barrier layer)was prepared on a Ni_(3)Al-base single crystal(SC)superalloy via electroplating and gaseous aluminizing treatments,wherein the electroplating procedures consisted of the composite deposition of Ni-Re followed by electroplating of Pt.In order to perform a comparison with conventional Ni Al and(Ni,Pt)Al coatings,the cyclic oxidation performance of the Ni Re Pt Al coating was evaluated at 1100 and 1150℃.We observed that the oxidation resistance of the Ni Re Pt Al coating was significantly improved by the greater presence of the residualβ-Ni Al phase in the outer layer and the lesser outward-diffusion of Mo from the substrate.In addition,the coating with the Re-rich diffusion barrier demonstrated a lower extent of interdiffusion into the substrate,where the thickness of the second reaction zone(SRZ)in the substrate alloy decreased by 25%.The mechanisms responsible for improving the oxidation resistance and decreasing the extent of SRZ formation are discussed,in which a particular attention is paid to the inhibition of the outward diffusion of Mo by the Re-based diffusion barrier.

文摘To reveal the influence of substrate/coating interdiffusion on the cyclic oxidation property of a metallic coating, cyclic oxida- tion behavior of an EB-PVD CoCrAIY coating on directionally solidified Ni-based superalloy DZ125 at 1 050℃ is investigated. The 40 μm thick CoCrA1Y coating has a cyclic oxidation life of around 160 h, and the oxidation constant is 1.915× 10^-7 mg4.cm^-8.s-1. However, severe spallation of the oxides containing Co, Cr, Ni, Ta and Ti occurs with longer cyclic oxidation. The degradation in oxidation resistance for the coating is related to the depletion of A1 due to the oxide spallation and interdiffu- sion. Severe interdiffusion between the coating and underlying substrate occurs at 1 050 ℃. The composition of the substrate has an important effect on the thermal cycling lifetime of the coating. The influencing mechanism is discussed.

文摘The cyclic oxidation behavior of Fe-9Cr-1Mo steel (9Cr-1Mo) in 10%H2O+90%Ar (volume fraction) atmosphere at 600, 650 and 700 ℃ for various time was studied. The oxidation mechanism of 9Cr-1Mo steel in 10%H2O+90%Ar atmosphere was discussed. The thermal stress was evaluated in two oxide layers to illustrate the spallation of the oxide layer. The experimental results indicate that there exists a duplex oxide scale with an outer layer of Fe2O3 and an inner layer of mixed (Fe, Cr)3O4 formed on 9Cr-1Mo steel during cyclic oxidation. Some cracks generated in both inner and outer oxide layers. Parts of oxide scales spalled from substrate during the cyclic oxidation. A higher tensile stress in the oxide layer is formed at the early oxidation stage than at the later oxidation stage during heating. This tensile stress results in the formation of cracks in the oxide layer.
