A pure phase of monosodium aluminate hydrate Na₂O · Al₂O₃ · 2.5H₂O (MAH) is synthesized and characterized by means of XRD, IR, SEM, TGA, and DSC. The heat capacity of the compound is measured in the temperature range of ?100 to 100°C, and the thermal contributions to enthalpy and entropy are calculated. The standard entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs energy of formation of MAH at 298 K are estimated.     

Application of Fe2O3/Al2O3 Composite Particles as Oxygen Carrier of Chemical Looping Combustion

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) of carbonaceous compounds has been proposed, in the past decade, as an efficient method for CO2 capture without cost of extra energy penalties. The technique involves the use of a metal oxide as an oxygen carrier that transfers oxygen from combustion air to fuels. The combustion is carried out in a two-step process: in the fuel reactor, the fuel is oxidized by a metal oxide, and in the air reactor, the reduced metal is oxidized back to the original phase. The use of iron oxide as an oxygen carrier has been investigated in this article. Particles composed of 80 wt% Fe2O3, together with Al2O3 as binder, have been prepared by impregnation methods. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis reveals that Fe2O3 does not interact with the Al2O3 binder after multi-cycles. The reactivity of the oxygen carrier particles has been studied in twenty-cycle reduction-oxidation tests in a thermal gravimetrical analysis (TGA) reactor. The components in the outlet gas have been analyzed. It has been observed that about 85% of CH4 converted to CO2 and H2O during most of the reduction periods. The oxygen carrier has kept quite a high reactivity in the twenty-cycle reactions. In the first twenty reaction cycles, the reaction rates became slightly higher with the number of cyclic reactions increasing, which was confirmed by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test results. The SEM analysis revealed that the pore size inside the particle had been enlarged by the thermal stress during the reaction, which was favorable for diffusion of the gaseous reactants into the particles. The experimental results suggested that the Fe2O3/Al2O3 oxygen carrier was a promising candidate for a CLC system.

Study of ceramic pigments based on cobalt doped Y2O3–Al2O3 system

Ceramic pigments based on Y₂O₃–Al₂O₃ system doped by cobalt as a colourant agent were synthesized by solid-state reaction at temperatures up to 1,400 °C. The reactivity of initial mixtures of components was improved by the mineralizer LiF and the mechanical activation in a planetary ball mill. The temperature region of the product formation was followed by the method of thermal analysis. The effect of the synthetic method on the phase composition of the products was studied by X-ray diffraction analysis. Studied pigment-application properties of the product include the measurement of optical properties in the visible region of light and particle size distribution. The simple solid-state reaction led to the formation of turquoise samples that contain mainly blue CoAl₂O₄ spinel and next to it also YAlO₃ perovskite and Y₃Al₅O₁₂ garnet phases. The mineralizer LiF promotes the formation of yttrium aluminium double oxides of sandy-yellow to grey–brown colour hue, although the samples also contain small amount of blue CoAl spinel phase. Intensive milling process did not results in CoAl spinel phase and the samples contain yttrium aluminium perovskite and cobalt oxide. Evaluation of Kubelka–Munk absorption as a function of the pigment concentration was found that hiding is complete by adding of 5 mass% of pigment to the ceramic glaze. Resulting colour hue of all pigment applications into ceramic glaze is blue. The size of particles lies in the range of 7–26 μm.

Rheological Properties of the Hydrated Al2O3–TiO2System

The rheology of mixtures of hydrated aluminum oxide and hydrated titanium dioxide sols was investigated. It was shown that flow curves depend on the mixture composition, the age of initial sols, the contact time of components, and the temperature. At low deformation rates, particles are aligned with the flow; this effect is partially reversible. At high shear rates, a discontinuity appears in the system; the effect depends on the age of initial sols.

Effects of nano-YAG (Y3Al5O12) crystallization on the structure and photoluminescence properties of Nd3+-doped K2O–SiO2–Y2O3–Al2O3 glasses

Nd³⁺-doped precursor glass in the K₂O–SiO₂–Y₂O₃–Al₂O₃ (KSYA) system was prepared by the melt-quench technique. The transparent Y₃Al₅O₁₂ (YAG) glass–ceramics were derived from this glass by a controlled crystallization process at 750 °C for 5–100 h. The formation of YAG crystal phase, size and morphology with progress of heat-treatment was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transformed infrared reflectance spectroscopy (FT-IRRS). The crystallite sizes obtained from XRD are found to increase with heat-treatment time and vary in the range 25–40 nm. The measured photoluminescence spectra have exhibited emission transitions of ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_J (J = 9/2, 11/2 and 13/2) from Nd³⁺ ions upon excitation at 829 nm. It is observed that the photoluminescence intensity and excited state lifetime of Nd³⁺ ions decrease with increase in heat-treatment time. The present study indicates that the incorporation of Nd³⁺ ions into YAG crystal lattice enhance the fluorescence performance of the glass–ceramic nanocomposites.

The effect of mechanical activation on the thermal reactions of P2O5–Al2O3–Fe2O3–Na2O phosphate glasses

The effect of mechanical activation on the structure and thermal reactions of glasses has been studied on the example of Na–Al–Fe phosphate glasses. These glasses are used in nuclear technology for immobilization of radioactive waste. The glasses were activated by grinding in a planetary mill. Mechanical activation causes a decrease of the T _g temperature as well as of the glass crystallization temperature. The type of crystalline phases formed and the quantitative proportions between them are changing. Analysis of inter-atomic interactions in the structure of glass was applied to explain the observed regularities governing the crystallization of the activated glasses.

热压烧结制备Al2O3/TiCN-0.2%Y2O3复合材料

采用热压烧结的方法制备Al2O3/TiCN-0.2%Y2O3复合陶瓷的结果, 较详细地介绍了试样成分、热压温度对试样抗弯强度、断裂韧性、维氏硬度等力学性能的影响. 结果表明 在热压温度低于1650 ℃时, 各项力学性能随着热压温度的提高而提高, 当热压温度为1650 ℃、压力为35 Mpa, 保温时间为30 min时, 其抗弯强度、断裂韧性及硬度分别达到它们的最大值1015 Mpa, 6.89 Mpa·m1/2和20.82 Mpa. 当热压温度高于1650 ℃时, 导致 TiCN分解作用加强导致密度下降, 同时温度过高导致晶粒长大使力学性能下降. 显微结构分析表明 由于稀土Y2O3的加入, 生成少量的YAG相, 抑制了Al2O3和TiCN晶粒长大, 有助于提高含Y2O3的Al2O3/TiCN复合材料的断裂韧性. TiCN颗粒弥散在Al2O3晶界处, 其晶粒尺寸在1 μm左右, 分布均匀, 相互交织, 抑制了晶粒生长, 从而起到增韧补强作用, 有利于材料力学性能的提高. 从压痕裂纹尖端扩展情况的扫描电镜照片可以看出 基体与增强相多个晶粒构成裂纹桥联行为, 并可能形成裂纹偏转、分支与桥联的共存区, 主要起作用的是稀土强化TiCN颗粒弥散增韧机制, 将复合材料的断裂韧性从5.94提高到6.89 Mpa·m1/2.
