Effects of excessive grain growth on the magnetic and mechanical properties of hot-deformed NdFeB magnets

The magnetic and mechanical properties of rare-earth magnets hot-deformed at temperature range 750-950 °C have been investigated. The grains tended to grow excessively from dozens of nanometers to several microns at the temperatures above 850 °C. The alignment of grains was disrupted by the hot deformation at the high temperatures. The Nd-rich phase was extruded at the temperatures which are higher than 850 °C. The Nd-rich phase extrusion resulted in the reduction of density by 1% and the reduction of remanence from 1.42 to 0.72 T. The reduction of grain boundaries caused by flat platelet-shaped grains changing to spherical grains and the weak binding strength among large grains of Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase may be the main reasons for the low mechanical strength of hot-deformed magnets.     

Growth of superconducting FeSe0.5Te0.5 thin films by pulsed-laser deposition

FeSe_0.5Te_0.5 thin films with PbO-type structure are successfully grown on MgO(1 0 0) and LaSrAlO₄(0 0 1) substrates from FeSe_0.5Te_0.5 or FeSe_0.5Te_0.75 polycrystalline targets by pulsed-laser deposition. The film deposited on the MgO substrate (film thickness ∼ 55 nm) shows superconductivity at 10.6 K (onset) and 9.2 K (zero resistivity). On the other hand, the film deposited on the LaSrAlO₄ substrate (film thickness ∼ 250 nm) exhibits superconductivity at 5.4 K (onset) and 2.7 K (zero resistivity). This suggests the strong influence of substrate materials and/or the c-axis length to superconducting properties of FeSe_0.5Te_0.5 thin films.     

WBE联合EIS技术研究缺陷涂层下金属腐蚀

用电化学阻抗谱(EIS)结合丝束电极(WBE)技术研究了缺陷涂层浸泡在3.5%(质量分数)NaCl溶液中的劣化过程.从浸泡开始到完好涂层鼓泡失效,缺陷涂层丝束电极阻抗响应一直是缺陷区电极腐蚀反应过程特征,而完好涂层的劣化过程和涂层下的腐蚀反应过程特征被"平均掉".根据电极表面的电流分布,结合阻抗谱技术实现了对表面任意局部阴极和阳极区阻抗测试.研究发现,浸泡开始时,缺陷涂层阴极电流和阳极电流均出现在缺陷区,随着腐蚀过程的发展,阳极电流仍然保持在缺陷区,但阴极电流逐渐向完好涂层下扩展.根据实验结果,对缺陷处和涂层下金属腐蚀反应发生发展的机理进行了深入讨论.

Thermo-visco-elasticity for Norton–Hoff-type models

Our research is directed to a quasi-static evolution of the thermo-visco-elastic model. We assume that the material is subject to two kinds of mechanical deformations: elastic and inelastic. Moreover, our analysis captures the influence of the temperature on the visco-elastic properties of the body. The novelty of the paper is the consideration of the thermodynamically consistent model to describe this kind of phenomena related with a hardening rule of Norton–Hoff type. We provide the proof of existence of solutions to thermo-visco-elastic model in a simplified setting, namely the thermal expansion effects are neglected. Consequently, the coupling between the temperature and the displacement occurs only in the constitutive function for the evolution of the visco-elastic strain.     

Polyacrolein-isonicotinic acid hydrazone and polyacrylic acid-thiohydrazide resins-synthesis and sorption properties for precious and base metals

This investigation carries on previous studies on polyacrolein-styrene resins. Further attempts were made to convert the reactive aldehyde groups of the polymeric support to functional acrolein-isonicotinic acid hydrazone (P-NHZ) or acrylic acid-thiohydrazide derivatives (P-THZD). The conditions of synthesis and the basic sorption and desorption properties of the polymers synthesized are described. For gold and platinum group metals the resins show differences in loading capacities, rates of simultaneous sorption in static conditions and efficiencies in column tests. The elution by thiourea solution was utilized to separate Au, Pd and Pt from an excess of base metals. The P-NHZ resin seems to be more advantageous than the sulfur containing P-THZD resin.

Determination of trace amounts of Sb,Pb, Tl in water samples by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry after a diantipyrylmethane-iodide third phase preconcentration

A preconcentration method based on third phase extraction has been developed and combined with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) for determination of Sb, Pb, Tl at trace levels in water samples. The reagents diantipyrylmethane and potassium iodide were applied for complexing Sb, Pb, Tl and producing a third phase extraction system. This third phase system produces relatively large enrichment factors and complete isolation of trace elements from high salt-containing matrices which influence strongly the plasma condition. Experimental parameters of the extraction, such as concentrations of complexing reagents, pH and extraction time have been optimized. Under the selected conditions, this third phase ICP-AES combination procedure gave multielemental detection limits for Sb, Pb, Tl which are superior by an order of magnitude or more to those obtained by ICP-AES alone without preconcentration. Precision of the technique is better than 10% at the 10 g/l level. The accuracy of this approach is demonstrated by its application to tapwater, artificial seawater and reference seawater samples.     

Review of the Sampling and Pretreatment Methods for Dioxins Determination in Solids,Liquids and Gases

The analytical requirements for the determination of dioxins (e.g. PCDD, PCDF) are unique in comparison with those for other routinely monitored chemicals: dioxins are measured in parts per trillion (ppt) and lower levels in technical and environmental samples, whereas other organics are measured in parts per million (ppm) or parts per billion (ppb). The ultra‐trace analysis of dioxins requires a high sample enrichment obtainable by the use of efficient extraction methods and highly selective purification/fractionation techniques. Furthermore, highly sensitive equipment (e.g. high resolution gas chromatography ‐ HRGC) with detection levels in the ppt range must be used to isolate and separate a huge number of dioxin congeners. The quantification of the dioxins by a high resolution mass detector (HRMS) requires the use of internal and labeled standards. This paper reviews and compares the classic and modern pretreatment methods, namely extraction and clean‐up, that are currently used in dioxin analysis in industrial samples and that were improved or developed in the last 25 years. In addition, the standard methods for dioxin sampling from an emission source (flue or stack gas) are examined and compared with new, automated techniques.     

Short-range order in ultrafine powder of an amorphous (Fe7Ni3)69B31 alloy

The short-range order structure of ultrafine powder of an amorphous (Fe₇Ni₃)₆₉B₃₁ alloy has been studied by ZAFS. The particles with diameters 1.7–15.3 nm are prepared by chemical reduction. The fact that the local environments around Fe or Ni are not the same suggests that there is chemical short-range order in this material. The mean distances of near neighbors surrounding an Fe and a Ni atom are shorter than those in amorphous Fe₈₀B₂₀ ribbon. The XANES spectra also show some differences between these two amorphous alloys. These indicate that the interaction between near neighbors is stronger in this amorphous ultrafine powder than in bulk amorphous material.
