文摘Six new lanthanide complexes:[Ln(3,4-DEOBA)3(4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·2C_(2)H_(5)OH,[Ln=Dy(1),Eu(2),Tb(3),Sm(4),Ho(5),Gd(6);3,4-DEOBA-=3,4-diethoxybenzoate,4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine]were successfully synthesized by the volatilization of the solution at room temperature.The crystal structures of six complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technology.The results showed that the complexes all have a binuclear structure,and the structures contain free ethanol molecules.Moreover,the coordination number of the central metal of each structural unit is eight.Adjacent structural units interact with each other through hydrogen bonds and further expand to form 1D chain-like and 2D planar structures.After conducting a systematic study on the luminescence properties of complexes 1-4,their emission and excitation spectra were obtained.Experimental results indicated that the fluorescence lifetimes of complexes 2 and 3 were 0.807 and 0.845 ms,respectively.The emission spectral data of complexes 1-4 were imported into the CIE chromaticity coordinate system,and their corre sponding luminescent regions cover the yellow light,red light,green light,and orange-red light bands,respectively.Within the temperature range of 299.15-1300 K,the thermal decomposition processes of the six complexes were comprehensively analyzed by using TG-DSC/FTIR/MS technology.The hypothesis of the gradual loss of ligand groups during the decomposition process was verified by detecting the escaped gas,3D infrared spectroscopy,and ion fragment information detected by mass spectrometry.The specific decomposition path is as follows:firstly,free ethanol molecules and neutral ligands are removed,and finally,acidic ligands are released;the final product is the corresponding metal oxide.CCDC:2430420,1;2430422,2;2430419,3;2430424,4;2430421,5;2430423,6.
文摘The strength and damping properties of Co-Ni-Cr-Mo-based alloys with 0.5wt%Nb addition after various plastic deformation and heat treatment processes were investigated.Through Vickers hardness tests,free resonance Young's modulus measurements,and microstructure analysis,the effects of dislocation density,vacancy formation,and recrystallization on the alloy performance were clarified.Results indicate that increasing the rolling reduction enhances damping property due to higher dislocation density,whereas aging below the recrystallization temperature reduces damping property via dislocation pinning by the Suzuki effect.Recrystallization heat treatment restores the original structure and damping level.This alloy possesses tensile strength of approximately 1500 MPa and logarithmic decrement valueδ^(-1) in the range of 2×10^(-4)–3×10^(-4),demonstrating superior mechanical properties compared with the Ti-based alloys,which makes it an excellent candidate material for ultrasonic tools and medical applications.

文摘Silicon carbide fibers are considered ideal reinforcing materials for ceramic matrix composites due to their excellent mechanical properties and high-temperature performance.Different types of fibers necessitate individual investigation due to variations in their composition and fabrication processes.This study presents a comprehensive investigation into evolution of the mechanical properties,surface microstructure,and composition of Shicolon-Ⅱ fibers subjected to argon heat treatment at temperatures ranging from 1300℃to 1700℃.The Shicolon-Ⅱ fibers are composed of small-sized β-SiC grains,SiC_(x)O_(y) amorphous phase,and a minor amount of graphite microcrystals.Following treatment in an argon atmosphere at 1300℃,the fibers maintain a monofilament tensile strength of 3.620 GPa,corresponding to a retention of 98.32%.This strength diminishes to 2.875 GPa,equating to a retention of 78.08%,after treatment at 1500℃.The reduction in mechanical properties of the fibers can be ascribed to the decomposition of the amorphous phase and the growth of β-SiC grains.Furthermore,creep resistance is an essential factor influencing the long-term performance of composite materials.After treatment at temperatures above 1400℃,the high-temperature creep resistance of the fibers is significantly enhanced due to growth of β-SiC grains.This study offers valuable theoretical insights into high-temperature applications of second-generation fibers,contributing to an enhanced understanding of their performance under extreme conditions.
文摘Three zinc(Ⅱ),nickel(Ⅱ),and cadmium(Ⅱ)complexes,namely[Zn(μ-Htpta)(py)_(2)]n(1),[Ni(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)2][Ni(tpta)(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)]2·3H_(2)O(2),and[Cd_(3)(μ4-tpta)2(μ-dpe)_(3)]_(n)(3),have been constructed hydrothermally at 160℃ using H_(3)tpta([1,1':3',1″-terphenyl]-4,4',5'-tricarboxylic acid),py(pyridine),H_(2)biim(2,2'-biimidazole),dpe(1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene),and zinc,nickel and cadmium chlorides,resulting in the formation of stable crystalline solids which were subsequently analyzed using infrared spectroscopy,element analysis,thermogravimetric analysis,as well as structural analyses conducted via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The findings from these single-crystal Xray diffraction studies indicate that complexes 1-3 form crystals within the monoclinic system P2_(1)/c space group(1)or triclinic system P1 space group(2 and 3),and possess 1D,0D,and 3D structures,respectively.Complex 1 demonstrated substantial catalytic efficiency and excellent reusability as a heterogeneous catalyst in the reaction of Knoevenagel condensation under ambient temperature conditions.In addition,complex 1 also showcased notable anti-wear performance when used in polyalphaolefin synthetic lubricants.CCDC:2449810,1;2449811,2;2449812,3.

文摘(NbZrHfTi)C high-entropy ceramics,as an emerging class of ultra-high-temperature materials,have garnered significant interest due to their unique multi-principal-element crystal structure and exceptional hightemperature properties.This study systematically investigates the mechanical properties of(NbZrHfTi)C high-entropy ceramics by employing first-principles density functional theory,combined with the Debye-Grüneisen model,to explore the variations in their thermophysical properties with temperature(0–2000 K)and pressure(0–30 GPa).Thermodynamically,the calculated mixing enthalpy and Gibbs free energy confirm the feasibility of forming a stable single-phase solid solution in(NbZrHfTi)C.The calculated results of the elastic stiffness constant indicate that the material meets the mechanical stability criteria of the cubic crystal system,further confirming the structural stability.Through evaluation of key mechanical parameters—bulk modulus,shear modulus,Young’s modulus,and Poisson’s ratio—we provide comprehensive insight into the macro-mechanical behaviour of the material and its correlation with the underlying microstructure.Notably,compared to traditional binary carbides and their average properties,(NbZrHfTi)C exhibits higher Vickers hardness(Approximately 28.5 GPa)and fracture toughness(Approximately 3.4 MPa⋅m^(1/2)),which can be primarily attributed to the lattice distortion and solid-solution strengthening mechanism.The study also utilizes the quasi-harmonic approximation method to predict the material’s thermophysical properties,including Debye temperature(initial value around 563 K),thermal expansion coefficient(approximately 8.9×10^(−6) K−1 at 2000 K),and other key parameters such as heat capacity at constant volume.The results show that within the studied pressure and temperature ranges,(NbZrHfTi)C consistently maintains a stable phase structure and good thermomechanical properties.The thermal expansion coefficient increasing with temperature,while heat capacity approaches the Dulong-Petit limit at elevated temperatures.These findings underscore the potential of(NbZrHfTi)C applications in ultra-high temperature thermal protection systems,cutting tool coatings,and nuclear structural materials.
文摘Dissimilar AZ31B magnesium alloy and DC56D steel were welded via AA1060 aluminum alloy by magnetic pulse welding.The effects of primary and secondary welding processes on the welded interface were comparatively investigated.Macroscopic morphology,microstructure,and interfacial structure of the joints were analyzed using scanning electron microscope,energy dispersive spectrometer,and X-ray diffractometer(XRD).The results show that magnetic pulse welding of dissimilar Mg/Fe metals is achieved using an Al interlayer,which acts as a bridge for deformation and diffusion.Specifically,the AZ31B/AA1060 interface exhibits a typical wavy morphology,and a transition zone exists at the joint interface,which may result in an extremely complex microstructure.The microstructure of this transition zone differs from that of AZ31B magnesium and 1060 Al alloys,and it is identified as brittle intermetallic compounds(IMCs)Al_(3)Mg_(2) and Al_(12)Mg_(17).The transition zone is mainly distributed on the Al side,with the maximum thickness of Al-side transition layer reaching approximately 13.53μm.Incomplete melting layers with varying thicknesses are observed at the primary weld interface,while micron-sized hole defects appear in the transition zone of the secondary weld interface.The AA1060/DC56D interface is mainly straight,with only a small number of discontinuous transition zones distributed intermittently along the interface.These transition zones are characterized by the presence of the brittle IMC FeAl_(3),with a maximum thickness of about 4μm.

文摘Copper manufactured by laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)process typically exhibits poor strength-ductility coordination,and the addition of strengthening phases is an effective way to address this issue.To explore the effects of strengthening phases on Cu,Cu-carbon nanotubes(CNTs)composites were prepared using LPBF technique with Cu-CNTs mixed powder as the matrix.The formability,microstructure,mechanical properties,electrical conductivity,and thermal properties were studied.The result shows that the prepared composites have high relative density.The addition of CNTs results in inhomogeneous equiaxed grains at the edges of the molten pool and columnar grains at the center.Compared with pure copper,the overall mechanical properties of the composite are improved:tensile strength increases by 52.8%and elongation increases by 146.4%;the electrical and thermal properties are also enhanced:thermal conductivity increases by 10.8%and electrical conductivity increases by 12.7%.

文摘To maintain soil quality under long-term saline water irrigation,the influence of manure on soil physical properties was examined.Long-term saline irrigation has been conducted from 2015 to 2024 at the Nanpi Eco-Agricultural Experimental Station of Chinese Academy Sciences in the Low Plain of the North China Plain,comprising four irrigation treatments:irrigation once at the jointing stage for winter wheat with irrigation water containing salt at fresh water,3,4 and 5 g·L^(–1),and maize irrigation at sowing using fresh water.Manure application was conducted under all irrigation treatments,with treatments without manure application used as controls.The results showed that under long-term irrigation with saline water,the application of manure increased the soil organic matter content,exchangeable potassium,available phosphorus,and total nitrogen content in the 0–20 cm soil layer by 46.8%,117.0%,75.7%,and 45.5%,respectively,compared to treatments without manure application.The application of manure reduced soil bulk density.It also increased the proportion of water-stable aggregates and the abundance of bacteria,fungi,and actinomycetes in the tillage soil layer compared to the controls.Because of the salt contained in the manure,the application of manure had dual effects on soil salt content.During the winter wheat season,manure application increased soil salt content.The salt content was significantly reduced during the summer maize season,owing to the strong salt-leaching effects under manure application,resulting in a smaller difference in salt content between the manure and non-manure treatments.During the summer rainfall season,improvements in soil structure under manure application increased the soil desalination rate for the 1 m top soil layer.The desalination rate for 0–40 cm and 40–100 cm was averagely by 39.1%and 18.9%higher,respectively,under manure application as compared with that under the nomanure treatments.The yield of winter wheat under manure application was 0.12%lower than that of the control,owing to the higher salt content during the winter wheat season.In contrast,the yield of summer maize improved by 3.9%under manure application,owing to the increased soil nutrient content and effective salt leaching.The results of this study indicated that manure application helped maintain the soil physical structure,which is important for the long-term use of saline water.In practice,using manure with a low salt content is suggested to reduce the adverse effects of saline water irrigation on soil properties and achieve sustainable saline water use.

文摘Laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)is highly suitable for forming 18Ni300 mold steel,thanks to its excellent capability in manufacturing complex shapes and outstanding capacity for regulating microstructures.It is widely used in fields such as injection molding,die casting,and stamping dies.Adding reinforcing particles into steel is an effective means to improve its performance.Nb/18Ni300 composites were fabricated by LPBF using two kinds of Nb powders with different particle sizes,and their microstructures and properties were studied.The results show that the unmelted Nb particles are uniformly distributed in the 18Ni300 matrix and the grains are refined,which is particularly pronounced with fine Nb particles.In addition,element diffusion occurs between the particles and the matrix.The main phases of the base alloy are α-Fe and a small amount of γ-Fe.With the addition of Nb,part of the α-Fe is transformed into γ-Fe,and unmelted Nb phases appear.The addition of Nb also enhances the hardness and wear resistance of the composites but slightly reduces their tensile properties.After aging treatment,the molten pools and grain boundaries become blurred,grains are further refined,and the interfaces around the particles are thinned.The aging treatment also promotes the formation of reverted austenite.The hardness,ultimate tensile strength,and volumetric wear rate of the base alloy reach 51.9 HRC,1704 MPa,and 17.8×10^(-6) mm^(3)/(N·m),respectively.In contrast,the sample added with fine Nb particles has the highest hardness(56.1 HRC),ultimate tensile strength(1892 MPa)and yield strength(1842 MPa),and the volume wear rate of the sample added with coarse Nb particles is reduced by 90%to 1.7×10^(-6) mm^(3)/(N·m).

文摘The precise control of stereochemistry in organic π-conjugated chiral foldamers remains a fundamental challenge in synthetic chemistry due to the lack of universal design principles.Herein,we establish a versatile strategy through cascade integration using a chiral building block Ⅰ-1 as a stereochemical template.Sequential imide functionalization yields Ⅰ-2,followed by parallel π-layer installation and structural expansion to construct foldamers Ⅱ-1,Ⅱ-2,Ⅲ-1,and Ⅲ-2,featuring naphthalimide bridges that interconnect distinct layers with preserved chirality.X-ray crystallography and electrostatic potential analysis conclusively resolve the layered architecture,multi-chiral elements and absolute configurations of this novel folding system.Frontier molecular orbitals and photophysical studies reveal unique luminescent properties arising from the naphthalimide core.The performance characterization indicates that both PLQY and the dissymmetry factors(g_(abs)/g_(lum))of chiroptical properties exhibit significant dependence on spatial modulation.Racemization kinetics and theoretical simulation show that π-layer incorporation significantly enhances interlayer van der Waals interactions,elevating the racemization Gibbs free energy to 41 kcal/mol for Ⅱ-1,which improvement over reported analogues.This work establishes a rational design platform for π-conjugated chiral foldamers,enabling the construction of configurationally stable,geometrically precise architectures with tailored optical properties.
文摘The chemical structure of polyamide 6(PA6)dictates that only 50%of hydrogen bonds participate in crystallization during the crystallization process,resulting in the properties of its products being significantly dependent on the molding process.Therefore,the design and development of nucleating agents suitable for PA6 holds great practical significance for high-performance PA6 materials.Amide-based nucleating agents can effectively improve the crystallization rate by increasing intermolecular hydrogen bond density.Further introduction of hydroxyl groups can enhance the hydrogen bonding interactions between the nucleating agent and PA6.In this study,a hydroxyl-containing amidebased nucleating agent,BHT,was designed and synthesized using a tyramine-based biomass as the raw material.These results demonstrated that BHT exhibited good structural compatibility with PA6.After adding 1 wt%BHT,the crystallization temperature of PA6 increased from 170.9℃to 193.3℃,the crystallinity increased 16.6%,the heat distortion temperature and Vicat softening temperature rose to 89.5 and 187.8℃,respectively,the haze decreased to 46%,achieving the synergistic optimization of mechanical,thermal,and optical properties.The in situ time-resolved FTIR results indicated that the addition of BHT increased the enthalpy of hydrogen bond formation during the nucleation stage,facilitated the segmental conformation adjustment of PA6,and enhanced the molar concentration of trans-conformations,ultimately leading to an improvement in the crystallization rate.

文摘Cryogenic rolling impacts on microstructure and mechanical properties of spray-formed 7055(SF-7055)Al alloy were investigated.Results show that with the increase of the reduction from 20%to 80%,the grain of cryogenic rolled SF-7055 Al alloy is elongated to form a fiber texture.Numerous proliferating dislocations in the microstructure accumulate into dislocation walls and cells,and eventually form subgrains.These subgrain boundaries divide the original grain,thereby reducing the grain size.Under severe deformation conditions,they even enable the formation of nanograins.Meanwhile,the Cu-rich precipitates in the matrix are also broken and refined under the action of large rolling stress.In the process of cryogenic rolling,the tensile strength and hardness of SF-7055 Al alloy gradually increase,while the plasticity decreases.Moreover,the fracture morphology of cryogenic rolled SF-7055 Al alloy gradually transforms to the ductile and quasi-cleavage hybrid fracture characteristics with increased reduction.
