Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.展开更多

文摘Marine gas hydrates are highly sensitive to temperature and pressure fluctuations,and deviations from in-situ conditions may cause irreversible changes in phase state,microstructure,and mechanical properties.However,conventional samplers often fail to maintain sealing and thermal stability,resulting in low sampling success rates.To address these challenges,an in-situ temperature-and pressure-preserved sampler for marine applications has been developed.The experimental results indicate that the selfdeveloped magnetically controlled pressure-preserved controller reliably achieves autonomous triggering and self-sealing,provides an initial sealing force of 83 N,and is capable of maintaining pressures up to 40 MPa.Additionally,a custom-designed intelligent temperature control chip and high-precision sensors were integrated into the sampler.Through the design of an optimized heat transfer structure,a temperature-preserved system was developed,achieving no more than a 0.3℃ rise in temperature within 2 h.The performance evaluation and sampling operations of the sampler were conducted at the Haima Cold Seep in the South China Sea,resulting in the successful recovery of hydrate maintained under in-situ pressure of 13.8 MPa and a temperature of 6.5℃.This advancement enables the acquisition of high-fidelity hydrate samples,providing critical support for the safe exploitation and scientific analysis of marine gas hydrate resources.

文摘As shallow resources are increasingly depleted,the mechanics'theory and testing technology of deep insitu rock has become urgent.Traditional coring technologies obtain rock samples without retaining the in-situ environmental conditions,leading to distortion of the measured parameters.Herein,a coring and testing systems retaining in-situ geological conditions is presented:the coring system that obtains in-situ rock samples,and the transfer and testing system that stores and analyzes the rocks under a reconstructed environment.The ICP-Coring system mainly consists of the pressure controller,active insulated core reactor and insulation layer and sealing film.The ultimate bearing strength of 100 MPa for pressurepreservation,temperature control accuracy of 0.97%for temperature-retained are realized.CH_(4)and CO permeability of the optimized sealing film are as low as 3.85 and 0.33 ppm/min.The average tensile elongation of the film is 152.4%and the light transmittance is reduced to 0%.Additionally,the pressure and steady-state temperature accuracy for reconstructing the in-situ environment of transfer and storage system up to 1%and±0.2 is achieved.The error recorded of the noncontact sensor ring made of lowdensity polymer is less than 6%than that of the contact test.The system can provide technical support for the deep in-situ rock mechanics research,improving deep resource acquisition capabilities and further clarifying deep-earth processes.

文摘The rich resources and unique environment of the Moon make it an ideal location for human expansion and the utilization of extraterrestrial resources.Oxygen,crucial for supporting human life on the Moon,can be extracted from lunar regolith,which is highly rich in oxygen and contains polymetallic oxides.This oxygen and metal extraction can be achieved using existing metallurgical techniques.Furthermore,the ample reserves of water ice on the Moon offer another means for oxygen production.This paper offers a detailed overview of the leading technologies for achieving oxygen production on the Moon,drawing from an analysis of lunar resources and environmental conditions.It delves into the principles,processes,advantages,and drawbacks of water-ice electrolysis,two-step oxygen production from lunar regolith,and one-step oxygen production from lunar regolith.The two-step methods involve hydrogen reduction,carbothermal reduction,and hydrometallurgy,while the one-step methods encompass fluorination/chlorination,high-temperature decomposition,molten salt electrolysis,and molten regolith electrolysis(MOE).Following a thorough comparison of raw materials,equipment,technology,and economic viability,MOE is identified as the most promising approach for future in-situ oxygen production on the Moon.Considering the corrosion characteristics of molten lunar regolith at high temperatures,along with the Moon's low-gravity environment,the development of inexpensive and stable inert anodes and electrolysis devices that can easily collect oxygen is critical for promoting MOE technology on the Moon.This review significantly contributes to our understanding of in-situ oxygen production technologies on the Moon and supports upcoming lunar exploration initiatives.

文摘Development of on-chip coherent light sources with desired single-mode operation and straightforward spectral tunability has attracted intense interest due to ever-increasing demand for photonic devices and optoelectronic integration,but still faces serious challenges.Herein,we propose a facile method to synthesize cesium lead halide(CsPbX3)microstructures with well-defined morphologies,sizes,and constituent element gradient.The scheme is conducted using a chemical vapor deposition(CVD),which is subsequently associated with annealing-assisted solid-solid anion exchange.For the plate-shaped structures,the controllability on the cross-sectional dimension enables to precisely modulate the lasing modes,thus achieving single-mode operation;while tuning the stoichiometric of the halogen anion components in the plate-shaped CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) alloy samples,the lasing wavelengths are straightforwardly varied to span the entire visible spectrum.By comparison,the experimental scheme on synthesizing alloyed CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) perovskites is conducted using an in-situ approach,thereby achieving precise modulation of bandgap-controlled microlasers by controlling the reaction time.Such laser properties like controllable microcavity modes and broad stoichiometry-dependent tunability of light-emitting/lasing colors,associated with the facile synthesizing method of monocrystalline CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) structures,make lead halide perovskites ideal materials for the development of wavelength-controlled microlasers toward practical photonic integration.

文摘The characteristics of nonmetallic inclusions formed during steel production have a significant influence on steel performance.In this paper,studies on inclusions using confocal scanning laser microscopy(CSLM)are reviewed and summarized,particularly the col-lision of various inclusions,dissolution of inclusions in liquid slag,and reactions between inclusions and steel.Solid inclusions exhibited a high collision tendency,whereas pure liquid inclusions exhibited minimal collisions because of the small attraction force induced by their<90°contact angle with molten steel.The collision of complex inclusions in molten steel was not included in the scope of this study and should be evaluated in future studies.Higher CaO/Al_(2)O_(3)and CaO/SiO_(2)ratios in liquid slag promoted the dissolution of Al_(2)O_(3)-based in-clusions.The formation of solid phases in the slag should be prevented to improve dissolution of inclusions.To accurately simulate the dissolution of inclusions in liquid slag,in-situ observation of the dissolution of inclusions at the steel-slag interface is necessary.Using a combination of CSLM and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy,the composition and morphological evolution of the inclusions during their modification by the dissolved elements in steel were observed and analyzed.Although the in-situ observa-tion of MnS and TiN precipitations has been widely studied,the in-situ observation of the evolution of oxide inclusions in steel during so-lidification and heating processes has rarely been reported.The effects of temperature,heating and cooling rates,and inclusion character-istics on the formation of acicular ferrites(AFs)have been widely studied.At a cooling rate of 3-5 K/s,the order of AF growth rate in-duced by different inclusions,as reported in literature,is Ti-O<Ti-Ca-Zr-Al-O<Mg-O<Ti-Zr-Al-O<Mn-Ti-Al-O<Ti-Al-O<Zr-Ti-Al-O.Further comprehensive experiments are required to investigate the quantitative relationship between the formation of AFs and inclusions.

文摘The high-temperature dissolution behavior of primary carbides in samples taken from GCr15 continuous-casting bloom was observed in-situ by confocal laser scanning microscopy.Equations were fitted to the dissolution kinetics of primary carbides during either heating or soaking.Dissolution of carbides proceeded in three stages(fast→slow→faster)as either temperature or holding time was increased.During the heating process and during the first and third stages of the soaking process,the original size of the carbides determined the steepness of the slope,but during the middle(“slow”)stage of the soaking process,the slope remained zero.The initial size of the carbides varied greatly,but their final dissolution temperature fell within the narrow range of 1210-1235℃,and the holding time remained within 50 min.Fractal analysis was used to study the morphological characteristics of small and medium-sized carbides during the dissolution process.According to changes in the fractal dimension before and after soaking,the carbides tended to evolve towards a more regular morphology.

文摘Gas content serves as a critical indicator for assessing the resource potential of deep coal mines and forecasting coal mine gas outburst risks.However,existing sampling technologies face challenges in maintaining the integrity of gas content within samples and are often constrained by estimation errors inherent in empirical formulas,which results in inaccurate gas content measurements.This study introduces a lightweight,in-situ pressure-and gas-preserved corer designed to collect coal samples under the pressure conditions at the sampling point,effectively preventing gas loss during transfer and significantly improving measurement accuracy.Additionally,a gas migration model for deep coal mines was developed to elucidate gas migration characteristics under pressure-preserved coring conditions.The model offers valuable insights for optimizing coring parameters,demonstrating that both minimizing the coring hole diameter and reducing the pressure difference between the coring-point pressure and the original pore pressure can effectively improve the precision of gas content measurements.Coring tests conducted at an experimental base validated the performance of the corer and its effectiveness in sample collection.Furthermore,successful horizontal coring tests conducted in an underground coal mine roadway demonstrated that the measured gas content using pressure-preserved coring was 34%higher than that obtained through open sampling methods.

文摘To explore the spontaneous magnetization of iron-bearing rare earth ores during suspension roasting,binary minerals containing hematite and bastnaesite were used to investigate the effects of the roasting temperature,roasting time,and bastnaesite-to-hematite mass ratio on in-situ reduction of hematite in a N_(2)atmosphere.Relevant analytical tests were used to explore the mineral phase evolution during roasting,the magnetism and microstructure of the roasted products,the phase composition,and the surface element valence of concentrate.It was found that magnetic separation of the iron concentrate afforded an iron grade of 68.87%and a recovery of 93.18%under the optimum roasting conditions.During roasting,bastnaesite decomposed to generate CO_(2)and CO,and the compact structure of hematite was gradually destroyed,resulting in microcracks.Subsequently,the CO entered the surface of the hematite through the microcracks and reacted to form a magnetite shell,and the magnetite-encapsulated hematite particles were recovered via low-intensity magnetic separation.

文摘A solid solution 6063 aluminium alloy features an exceptional combination of strength and ductility at 77 K.Here,the deformation mechanisms responsible for superior strength-ductility synergy and excellent strain hardening capacity at a cryogenic temperature of the alloy were comparatively investigated by insitu electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)observations coupled with transmission electron microscopy(TEM)characterization and fracture morphologies at both 298 and 77 K.It is found that kernel average misorientation(KAM)mappings and quantified KAM in degree suggest a higher proportion of geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)at 77 K.The existence of orientation scatter partitions at 77 K implies the activation of multiple slip systems,which is consistent with the results of potential slip systems calculated by Taylor axes.Furthermore,dislocation tangles characterized by brief and curved dislocation cells and abundant small dimples have been observed at 77 K.This temperature-mediated activation of dislocations facilitates the increased dislocations,thus enhancing the strain hardening capacity and ductility of the alloy.This research enriches cryogenic deformation theory and provides valuable insights into the design of high-performance aluminium alloys that are suitable for cryogenic applications.

文摘The austenite(γ)reversely transformed from lath martensite(LM),lath bainite(LB),granular bainite(GB)and pearlite+ferrite(P+F)in a high-strength steel was studied at high temperatures using in-situ electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD).The memory effect of initial γ significantly affects the nucleation of the reverted γ in LM and GB structures,while a weak influence on that of LB and P+F structures.This results in a significant difference in γ grain size after complete austenitization,with the first two obtaining larger γ grains while the latter two are relatively small.Crystallographic analysis revealed that the reverted γ with acicular morphology(γA),most of which maintained the same orientation with the prior γ,dominated the reaustenitization behavior of LM and GB structures through preferential nucleation within γ grains and coalesced growth modes.Although globular reverted γ(γ_(G))with random orientation or large deviation from the prior γ can nucleate at the grain boundaries or within the grains,it is difficult for it to grow and play a role in segmenting and refining the prior γ due to the inhibition of γ_(A) coalescing.For LB and P+F structures,the nucleation rate of intragranular γ_(G) increases with increasing temperature,and always shows a random orientation.These γ_(G) grains can coarsen simultaneously with the intergranular γ_(G),ultimately playing a role in jointly dividing and refining the finalγgrains.Research also found that the differences in the effects of four different microstructures on revertedγnucleation are closely related to the variant selection of the matrix structure,as well as the content and size of cementite(θ).High density of block boundaries induced by weakening of variant selection and many fineθformed in the lath are the key to promoting LB structure to obtain more intragranular γ_(G) formation,as well as the important role of the large-sized θ in P+F structure.

文摘To effectively regulate the grain boundary infiltration in CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy(Cantor alloys,HEA)caused by the violent atomic interdiffusion,the higher configuration entropy on Cantor alloys surface was designed and realized via eutectic high-entropy(EHEA)transformation.Meanwhile,to effectively alleviate the residual stress caused by the notable difference in the thermal expansion coefficient(CTE)between Cantor alloys and Zr-3 alloys,a cladding layer was applied to the HEA surface using laser cladding technology of Nb,followed by brazing to Zr-3 alloys with Zr63.2Cu filler.The cladding layer’s microstructure comprised Nbss and FCC+(Co,Ni)_(2) Nb eutectic structure,resulting from an in-situ reaction between Cantor alloys and Nb.The Nbss and FCC demonstrated good plasticity,and the(Co,Ni)_(2) Nb Laves phase provided increased strength,endowing both good plastic deformation ability and strength of the cladding layer.Notably,the existence of EHEA in the laser cladding layer made the Cantor alloy entropy from 1.61 R to 1.77 R,greatly enhancing its thermal stability and suppressing the grave grain boundary infiltration.Joints produced via laser cladding with Nb-assisted brazing exhibited a complex microstructure(HEA/Nbss+FCC+(Co,Ni)_(2)Nb/(Zr,Nb)(Cr,Mn)_(2)+(Zr,Nb)ss/(Zr,Nb)_(2)(Cu,Ni,Co,Fe)+(Zr,Nb)(Cr,Mn)_(2)+(Zr,Nb)ss/Zr-3) and a significantly improved shear strength of 242.8 MPa at 1010℃ for 10 min,42.4%higher than that of directly brazed joints.This improvement was attributed to reduced grain boundary infiltration,alleviated residual stress due to CTE disparity,and eliminated micro-cracks in the brazing seam.This study presents an effective solution for reducing residual stresses and achieving reliable bonding between Cantor alloys and Zr-3 alloys,with potential applications in brazing CoCrFeNi-based HEA and Zr-3 due to the beneficial eutectic reaction between CoCrFeNi and Nb.

文摘Low-to medium-maturity oil shale resources display substantial reserves, offering promising prospects for in-situ conversion inChina. Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.

文摘Determining the orientation of in-situ stresses is crucial for various geoscience and engineering appli-cations.Conventional methods for estimating these stress orientations often depend on focal mechanism solutions(FMSs)derived from earthquake data and formation micro-imager(FMI)data from well logs.However,these techniques can be costly,depth-inaccurate,and may lack spatial coverage.To address this issue,we introduce the use of three-dimensional(3D)seismic data(active sources)as a lateral constraint to approximate the 3D stress orientation field.Recognizing that both stress and fracture patterns are closely related to seismic velocity anisotropy,we derive the orientation of azimuthal anisotropy from multi-azimuth 3D seismic data to compensate for the lack of spatial stress orientation information.We apply our proposed workflow to a case study in the Weiyuan area of the Sichuan Basin,China,a region targeted for shale gas production.By integrating diverse datasets,including 3D seismic,earthquakes,and well logs,we develop a comprehensive 3D model of in-situ stress(orientations and magnitudes).Our results demonstrate that the estimated anisotropy orientations from 3D seismic data are consistent with the direction of maximum horizontal principal stress(SHmax)obtained from FMIs.We analyzed 12 earthquakes(magnitude>3)recorded between 2016 and 2020 for their FMSs and compressional axis(P-axis)orientations.The derived SHmax direction from our 3D stress model is 110°ES(East-South),which shows excellent agreement with the FMSs(within 3.96°).This close alignment validates the reliability and precision of our integrated method for predicting 3D SHmax orientations.

文摘Halide perovskite-based heterojunctions have emerged as promising candidates for solar energy conversion and storage due to their unique photophysical properties.However,the current bottleneck lies in the insufficient separation of photogenerated carriers at the interface,primarily due to challenges in the controllable growth of perovskite on the substrate.Herein,we present a growth strategy for depositing lead-free Cs_(3)Sb_(2)Br_(9)perovskite nanocrystals onto the surface of Co_(3)O_(4)with the assistance of polyacrylic acid(PAA),generating a step-scheme(S-scheme)heterojunction denoted as Co_(3)O_(4)-Cs_(3)Sb_(2)Br_(9).The utilization of PAA as a template can effectively regulate the nucleation and growth of Cs_(3)Sb_(2)Br_(9),thereby significantly enhancing the charge separation efficiency of the Co_(3)O_(4)-Cs_(3)Sb_(2)Br_(9)heterojunction compared to its counterpart formed without PAA assistance.Under simulated solar light irradiation(100 mW·cm^(-2)),the cerium-doped Co_(3)O_(4)-Cs_(3)Sb_(2)Br_(9)heterojunction exhibits excellent photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction activity without the need for any sacrificial agent.Specifically,the CO yield reaches up to 700.7μmol·g^(-1)·h^(-1),marking a 2.8-fold increase over the sample synthesized without PAA mediation.This polymer-assisted in-situ growth strategy should open up a new avenue for designing and developing more efficient photocatalytic materials based on halide perovskites.

文摘Reinforcing metal matrix composites(MMCs)with nanophases of distinct characteristics is an effective strategy for utilizing their individual advantages and achieving superior properties of the composite.In this study,a combination of molecular level mixing(MLM),segment ball milling(SBM),and in-situ solid-phase reaction was employed to fabricate Cu matrix composites(TiC-CNT/Cu)reinforced with TiC decorated CNT(TiC@CNT)and in-situ nanoscale TiC particles.The HRTEM results revealed the epitaxial growth of interfacial TiC on the surface of CNT(i.e.,CNT(0002)//TiC(200),and the formation of a semi-coherent interface between TiC and Cu matrix,which can effectively enhance the interfacial bonding strength and optimize load transfer efficiency of CNT.The independent in-situ TiC nanoparticles got into the grain interior through grain boundary migration,thereby significantly enhancing both strain hardening capacity and strength of the composite by fully utilizing the Orowan strengthening mechanism.Moreover,the enhanced bonding strength of the interface can also effectively suppress crack initiation and propagation,thereby improving the fracture toughness of the composite.The TiC-CNT/Cu composite with 1.2 vol.%CNT exhibited a tensile strength of 372 MPa,achieving a super high strengthening efficiency of 270,while simultaneously maintaining a remarkable ductility of 21.2%.Furthermore,the impact toughness of the TiC-CNT/Cu composite exhibited a significant enhancement of 70.7%compared to that of the CNT/Cu composite,reaching an impressive value of 251 kJ/m^(2),thereby demonstrating exceptional fracture toughness.Fully exploiting the synergistic strengthening effect of different nanophases can be an effective way to improve the comprehensive properties of MMCs.

文摘Metal-organic framework(MOF)nanostructures have emerged as a prominent class of materials in the advancement of electrochemical sensors.The rational design of bimetallic MOF-functionalized microelectrode is of importance for improv-ing the electrochemical performance but still in great challenge.In this work,the bimetallic FeCo-MOF nanostructures were assembled onto a gold disk ultramicroelectrode(Au UME,5.2μm in diameter)via an in-situ electrodeposition method,which enhanced the sensitive detection of epinephrine(EP).The in-situ electrodeposited FeCo-MOF exhibited a character-istic nanoflower-like morphology and was uniformly dispersed on the Au UME.The FeCo-MOF/Au UME demonstrated excellent electrochemical performance on the detection of EP with a high sensitivity of 36.93μA·μmol^(-1)·L·cm^(-2)and a low detection limit of 1.28μmol·L^(-1).It can be attributed to the nonlinear diffusion of EP onto the ultra-micro working substrate,coupled with synergistical catalytic activity of the bimetallic Fe,Co within MOF structure.Furthermore,the FeCo-MOF/Au UME has been successful applied to the analysis of EP in human serum samples,yielding high recovery rates.These results not only contribute to the expansion of the research area of electrochemical sensors,but also provide novel insights and directions into the development of high-performance MOF-based electrochemical sensors.
文摘The deformation and fracture of a third-generation single crystal superalloy during in-situ tension at room temperature were investigated at multiple scales by scanning electron microscope,electron back-scattered diffractometer,and transmission electron microscope to reveal the deformation and fracture mechanism during tension.The proportion of low angle boundaries(LABs)with angles from 2.5°to 5.5°increases during tension.The change in LABs is particularly pronounced after elongation over 7%.The initiation of microcracks is caused by{111}<110>slip systems.After initiation,the crack size along the stress direction increases whereas the size extension along slip systems is suppressed.The fracture mode of the alloy is quasi-cleavage fracture and the slip lines near the fracture are implicit at room temperature.

文摘High-performance graphite materials have important roles in aerospace and nuclear reactor technologies because of their outstanding chemical stability and high-temperature performance.Their traditional production method relies on repeated impregnation-carbonization and graphitization,and is plagued by lengthy preparation cycles and high energy consumption.Phase transition-assisted self-pressurized selfsintering technology can rapidly produce high-strength graphite materials,but the fracture strain of the graphite materials produced is poor.To solve this problem,this study used a two-step sintering method to uniformly introduce micro-nano pores into natural graphite-based bulk graphite,achieving improved fracture strain of the samples without reducing their density and mechanical properties.Using natural graphite powder,micron-diamond,and nano-diamond as raw materials,and by precisely controlling the staged pressure release process,the degree of diamond phase transition expansion was effectively regulated.The strain-to-failure of the graphite samples reached 1.2%,a 35%increase compared to samples produced by fullpressure sintering.Meanwhile,their flexural strength exceeded 110 MPa,and their density was over 1.9 g/cm^(3).The process therefore produced both a high strength and a high fracture strain.The interface evolution and toughening mechanism during the two-step sintering process were investigated.It is believed that the micro-nano pores formed have two roles:as stress concentrators they induce yielding by shear and as multi-crack propagation paths they significantly lengthen the crack propagation path.The two-step sintering phase transition strategy introduces pores and provides a new approach for increasing the fracture strain of brittle materials.

文摘Using the slurry reaction sintering process to prepare Hf-Ta-Si composite coating on Ta12W alloy surface,the effect of Si content on the in-situ formation mechanism of the Hf-Ta-Si coating was investigated.Results show that 30Hf:70Si coatings exhibit inferior surface uniformity with some pores.The upper part of the sample displays a four-layer gradient structure:the outermost layer is primarily composed of HfSi and HfC,the middle layer consists of(Ta,Hf)_(5)Si_(3)solid solution,the lower main-layer consists of TaSi_(2),and the coating/substrate interface layer is Ta_(5)Si_(3).However,the flow of molten Si under gravity leads to Si-enrichment on the lower part of the coating.After optimizing the Hf:Si ratio to 40:60,the gradient differences in elemental distribution on the coating surface decrease.The surface layer is dominated by HfSi/HfC,but the precipitation of HfC becomes more uniform.The continuity of the(Ta,Hf)_(5)Si_(3)solid solution in middle layer is enhanced,whereas the lower layer and the interface transition layer remain unchanged.Overall,a denser multi-layer gradient structure is formed with improved surface uniformity.Additionally,the acid-alcohol resin in the organic solvent suffers high-temperature pyrolysis and in-situ reacts with Hf to generate the ultra-high-temperature ceramic HfC.This phenomenon is expected to enhance the oxidation resistance and high-temperature stability of coating.
