Correlation between Al2O3 particles and interface of Al-Al2O3 coatings by cold spray

Al-Al₂O₃ composite coatings with different Al₂O₃ particle shapes were prepared on Si and Al substrate by cold spray. The powder compositions of metal (Al) and ceramic (Al₂O₃) having different sizes and agglomerations were varied into ratios of 10:1 wt% and 1:1 wt%. Al₂O₃ particles were successfully incorporated into the soft metal matrix of Al. It was found that crater formation between the coatings and substrate, which is typical characteristic signature of cold spray could be affected by initial starting Al₂O₃ particles. In addition, when the large hard particles of fused Al₂O₃ were employed, the deep and big craters were generated at the interface between coatings and hard substrates. In the case of pure soft metal coating such as Al on hard substrate, it is very hard to get proper adhesion due to lack of crater formation. Therefore, the composite coating would have certain advantages.     

Role of Ti in the luminescence process of Al2O3:Si,Ti

Al₂O₃:Si,Ti, prepared under oxidizing condition at high temperature, gives PL emission around 430 nm when excited with 240 nm. The Al₂O₃:C, TL/OSL phosphor, also shows emission around 430 nm, which corresponds to characteristic emission of F-center. Thus, to identify the exact nature of luminescent center in Al₂O₃:Si,Ti, fluorescence lifetime measurement studies were carried out along with the PL,TL and OSL studies. The PL and TL in Al₂O₃:Si,Ti show emission around 430 nm and the time-resolved fluorescence studies show lifetime of about 43 μs for the 430 nm emission, which is much smaller than the reported lifetime of ∼35 ms for the 430 nm emission (F-center emission) in Al₂O₃:C phosphor. Therefore, the emission observed in Al₂O₃:Si,Ti phosphor was assigned to Ti⁴⁺ charge transfer transition. Fluorescence studies of Al₂O₃:Si,Ti do not show any traces of F and F⁺ centers. Also, Ti⁴⁺ does not show any change in the charge state after gamma-irradiation. On the basis of the above studies, a mechanism for TSL/OSL process in Al₂O₃:Si,Ti is proposed.     

Enhanced optical activation of Er in Er-doped Al2O3 powders by Y codoping in a sol-gel method

Enhanced photoluminescence (PL) mechanism of Er³⁺-doped Al₂O₃ powders by Y³⁺ codoping at wavelength 1.53 μm has been investigated through PL measurements of 0.1 mol% Er³⁺- and 0-20 mol% Y³⁺-codoped Al₂O₃ powders prepared at a sintering temperature of 900 °C in a non-aqueous sol-gel method. PL intensity and lifetime of Er³⁺-Y³⁺-codoped Al₂O₃ powders composed of γ-(Al,Er,Y)₂O₃ and θ-(Al,Er,Y)₂O₃ phases increased with increasing Y³⁺-codoping concentration. The 10-20 mol% Y³⁺ codoping in 0.1 mol% Er³⁺-doped Al₂O₃ powders intensified the PL intensity by about 20 times, with a PL lifetime prolonged from 3.5 to 5.8 ms. A maximal increase of the optical activity of Er³⁺ in 0.1 mol% Er³⁺-Y³⁺-codoped Al₂O₃ powders about one order was achieved by 10-20 mol% Y³⁺ codoping. It is found that the improved PL properties for Er³⁺-Y³⁺-codoped Al₂O₃ powders are mainly attributed to enhanced optical activation of Er³⁺ in the Al₂O₃ by Y³⁺ codoping, and to the slightly increased radiative quantum efficiency of Er³⁺ in the Al₂O₃.     

Effect of TiO2/Al2O3 film coated diamond abrasive particles by sol-gel technique

The diamond abrasive particles were coated with the TiO₂/Al₂O₃ film by the sol-gel technique. Compared with the uncoated diamonds, the TiO₂/Al₂O₃ film was excellent material for the protection of the diamonds. The results showed that the incipient oxidation temperature of the TiO₂/Al₂O₃ film coated diamonds in air atmosphere was 775 °C, which was higher 175 °C than that of the uncoated diamonds. And the coated diamonds also had better the diamond's single particle compressive strength and the impact toughness than that of uncoated diamonds after sintering at 750 °C. For the vitrified bond grinding wheels, replacing the uncoated diamonds with the TiO₂/Al₂O₃ film coated diamonds, the volume expansion of the grinding wheels decreased from 6.2% to 3.4%, the porosity decreased from 35.7% to 25.7%, the hardness increased from 61.2H_RC to 66.5H_RC and the grinding ratio of the vitrified bond grinding wheels to carbide alloy (YG8) increased from 11.5 to 19.1.     

Interfacial reactions and oxidation behavior of Al2O3 and Al2O3/Al coatings on an orthorhombic Ti2AlNb alloy

The uniform and dense Al₂O₃ and Al₂O₃/Al coatings were deposited on an orthorhombic Ti₂AlNb alloy by filtered arc ion plating. The interfacial reactions of the Al₂O₃/Ti₂AlNb and Al₂O₃/Al/Ti₂AlNb specimens after vacuum annealing at 750 °C were studied. In the Al₂O₃/Ti₂AlNb specimens, the Al₂O₃ coating decomposed significantly due to reaction between the Al₂O₃ coating and the O-Ti₂AlNb substrate. In the Al₂O₃/Al/Ti₂AlNb specimens, a γ-TiAl layer and an Nb-rich zone came into being by interdiffusion between the Al layer and the O-Ti₂AlNb substrate. The γ-TiAl layer is chemically compatible with Al₂O₃, with no decomposition of Al₂O₃ being detected. No internal oxidation or oxygen and nitrogen dissolution zone was observed in the O-Ti₂AlNb alloy. The Al₂O₃/Al/Ti₂AlNb specimens exhibited excellent oxidation resistance at 750 °C.     

The electrical properties of dielectric stacks of SiO2 and Al2O3 prepared by atomic layer deposition method

We produced dielectric stacks composed of ALD SiO₂ and ALD Al₂O₃, such as SiO₂/Al₂O₃, Al₂O₃/SiO₂, and SiO₂/Al₂O₃/SiO₂, and measured the leakage currents through the stacks in comparison with those of the single oxide layers. SiO₂/Al₂O₃ shows lowest leakage current for negative bias region below 6.4 V, and Al₂O₃/SiO₂ showed highest current under negative biases below 4.5 V. Two distinct electron conduction regimes are observed for Al₂O₃ and SiO₂/Al₂O₃. Poole-Frenkel emission is dominant at the high-voltage regime for both dielectrics, whereas the direct tunneling through the dielectric is dominant at the low-voltage regime. The calculated transition voltage between two regimes for SiO₂ (6.5 nm)/Al₂O₃ (12.6 nm) is −6.4 V, which agrees well with the experimental observation (−6.1 V). For the same EOT of entire dielectric stack, the transition voltage between two regimes decreases with thinner SiO₂ layer.     

Synthesis and characterization of TiO2/Fe2O3 core-shell nanocomposition film and their photoelectrochemical property

TiO₂/Fe₂O₃ core-shell nanocomposition film has been fabricated via two-step method. TiO₂ nanorod arrays are synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method, and followed by Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles deposited on TiO₂ nanorod arrays through an ordinary chemical bath deposition. The phase structures, morphologies, particle size, chemical compositions of the composites have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometer. The results confirm that Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles of mean size ca. 10 nm coated on the surface of TiO2 NRs. After depositing Fe₂O₃, UV-vis absorption property is induces the shift to the visible-light range, the annealing temperature of 600 °C is the best condition for UV-vis absorption property of TiO₂/Fe₂O₃ nanocomposite film, and increasing Fe content, optical activity are enhanced one by one. The photoelectrochemical (PEC) performances of the as-prepared composite nanorods are determined by measuring the photo-generated currents under illumination of UV-vis light. The TiO₂ NRs modified by Fe₂O₃ show the photocurrent value of 1.36 mA/cm² at 0 V vs Ag/AgCl, which is higher than those of unmodified TiO₂ NRs.     

Synthesis and ion conductivity of (Bi2O3)0.75(Dy2O3)0.25 ceramics with grain sizes from the nano to the micro scale

Using (Bi₂O₃)_0.75(Dy₂O₃)_0.25 nano-powder synthesized by reverse titration co-precipitation method as raw material, dense ceramics were sintered by both Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) and pressureless sintering. According to the predominance area diagram of Bi-O binary system, the sintering conditions under SPS were optimized. (Bi₂O₃)_0.75(Dy₂O₃)_0.25 ceramics with relative density higher than 95% and an average grain size of 20 nm were sintered in only 10 min up to 500 °C. During the pressureless sintering process, the grain growth behavior of (Bi₂O₃)_0.75(Dy₂O₃)_0.25 followed a parabolic trend, expressed as D² − D₀² = Kt, and the apparent activation energy of grain growth was found to be 284 kJ mol^− 1. Dense (Bi₂O₃)_0.75(Dy₂O₃)_0.25 ceramics with different grain sizes were obtained, and the effect of grain size on ion conductivity was investigated by impedance spectroscopy. It was shown that the total ion conductivity was not affected by the grain size down to 100 nm, however lower conductivity was measured for the sample with the smallest grain size (20 nm). But, although only the δ phase was evidenced by X-ray diffraction for this sample, a closer inspection by Raman spectroscopy revealed traces of α-Bi₂O₃.     

Promotion of surface SOx on the selective catalytic reduction of NO by hydrocarbons over Ag/Al2O3

The promotion of sulfur oxides on the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by hydrocarbons in the presence of a low concentration of sulfur oxides over Ag/Al₂O₃ has been investigated by a flow reaction test and in situ infrared spectroscopy. When the C₃H₆ (or C₁₀H₂₂) + NO + O₂ feed-flow reaction was tested, maximum NO reduction was below 30% over fresh Ag/Al₂O₃. After the addition of SO₂ to the feed flow, conversion increased slightly. Conversion increased further after SO₂ was cut-off from the feed flow. This demonstrated that the increase in NO reduction activity of the catalyst was related to SO_x adsorbed on the catalyst. SO_x adsorbed on the catalytic surface (1375 cm⁻¹) was detected by IR spectroscopy and was stable within the temperature range. NCO species, as an intermediate in NO reduction, on SO_x-adsorbed Ag/Al₂O₃ in a C₃H₆ + NO + O₂ feed flow was observed in in situ IR spectra during the elevation of the reaction temperature from 473 to 673 K, while it was only observed at 673 K on fresh Ag/Al₂O₃ under the same experimental conditions. We suggest that SO_x in low concentrations depressed the combustion of reductants by contaminating hydrocarbon combustion active sites on the catalyst, resulting in an increase in NO reduction efficiency of the reductants.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of hard magnetic (CoFe2O4)-soft magnetic (Fe3O4) nano-composite ceramics by SPS technology

CoFe₂O₄/Fe₃O₄ nano-composite ceramics were synthesized by Spark Plasma Sintering. The X-ray diffraction patterns show that all samples are composed of CoFe₂O₄ and Fe₃O₄ phases when the sintering temperature is below 900 °C. It is found that the magnetic properties strongly depend on the sintering temperature. The two-step hysteresis loops for samples sintered below 500 °C are observed, but when sintering temperature reaches 500 °C, the step disappears, which indicates that the CoFe₂O₄ and Fe₃O₄ are well exchange coupled. As the sintering temperature increases from 500 to 800 °C, the results of X-ray diffractometer indicate the constriction of crystalline regions due to the ion diffusion at the interfaces of CoFe₂O₄/Fe₃O₄ phases, which have great impact on the magnetic properties.     

Effect of Li2O and CoO-doping of CuO/Fe2O3 system on its surface and catalytic properties

Physicochemical, surface and catalytic properties of pure and doped CuO/Fe₂O₃ system were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), nitrogen adsorption at −196 °C and CO-oxidation by O₂ at 80-220 °C using a static method. The dopants were Li₂O (2.5 mol%) and CoO (2.5 and 5 mol%). The results revealed that the increase in precalcination temperature from 400 to 600 °C and Li₂O-doping of CuO/Fe₂O₃ system enhanced CuFe₂O₄ formation. However, heating both pure and doped solids at 600 °C did not lead to complete conversion of reacting oxides into CuFe₂O₄. The promotion effect of Li₂O dopant was attributed to dissolution of some of dopant ions in the lattices of CuO and Fe₂O₃ with subsequent increase in the mobility of reacting cations. CoO-doping led also to the formation of mixed ferrite Co_xCu_1−xFe₂O₄. The doping process of the system investigated decreased to a large extent the crystallite size of unreacted portion of Fe₂O₃ in mixed solids calcined at 600 °C. This process led to a significant increase in the S_BET of the treated solids. Doping CuO/Fe₂O₃ system with either Li₂O or CoO, followed by calcination at 400 and 600 °C decreased its catalytic activity in CO-oxidation by O₂. However, the activation energy of the catalyzed reaction was not much affected by doping.     

Plasma sprayed Al2O3/FeCrAl composite coatings for electromagnetic wave absorption application

Al₂O₃/FeCrAl composite coatings were fabricated by atmosphere plasma spraying technique. Microstructure and dielectric properties in the frequency range from 8.2 to 12.4 GHz were investigated. The microstructure of composite coatings shows a uniform dispersion of metal particles with litter pores and microcracks in the composite coatings. The relaxation polarization and interfacial polarization in the coatings would contribute to enhance ?′ with rising FeCrAl content, and the associated loss could be considered as a dominating factor enhancing ?″. By calculating the microwave-absorption as a single-layer absorber, for the composite coatings with 41 wt.% FeCrAl content, the reflection loss values exceeding −10 dB are achieved in the frequency range of 9.1-10.6 GHz when the coating thickness is 1.3 mm.     

Green synthesis and characterization of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles

In this paper, we have first demonstrated a facile and green synthetic approach for preparing superparamagnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles using α-d-glucose as the reducing agent and gluconic acid (the oxidative product of glucose) as stabilizer and dispersant. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) results showed that the inverse spinel structure pure phase polycrystalline Fe₃O₄ was obtained. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results exhibited that Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were roughly spherical shape and its average size was about 12.5 nm. The high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) result proved that the nanoparticles were structurally uniform with a lattice fringe spacing about 0.25 nm, which corresponded well with the values of 0.253 nm of the (3 1 1) lattice plane of the inverse spinel Fe₃O₄ obtained from the JCPDS database. The superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) results revealed that the blocking temperature (T_b) was 190 K, and that the magnetic hysteresis loop at 300 K showed a saturation magnetization of 60.5 emu/g, and the absence of coercivity and remanence indicated that the as-synthesized Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles had superparamagnetic properties. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectrum displayed that the characteristic band of Fe-O at 569 cm⁻¹ was indicative of Fe₃O₄. This method might provide a new, mild, green, and economical concept for the synthesis of other nanomaterials.     

High temperature ferromagnetism of the vacuum-annealed (In1−xFex)2O3 powders

(In_1−xFe_x)₂O₃ (x = 0.02, 0.05, 0.2) powders were prepared by a solid state reaction method and a vacuum annealing process. A systematic study was done on the structural and magnetic properties of (In_1−xFe_x)₂O₃ powders as a function of Fe concentration and annealing temperature. The X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy results confirmed that there were not any Fe or Fe oxide secondary phases in vacuum-annealed (In_1−xFe_x)₂O₃ samples and the Fe element was incorporated into the indium oxide lattice by substituting the position of indium atoms. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that both Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions existed in the samples. Magnetic measurements indicated that all samples were ferromagnetic with the magnetic moment of 0.49-1.73 μ_B/Fe and the Curie temperature around 783 K. The appearance of ferromagnetism was attributed to the ferromagnetic coupling of Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions via an electron trapped in a bridging oxygen vacancy.     

Effects of different sintering temperature and Nb2O5 content on structural and magnetic properties of Z-type hexaferrites

Nb-doped Z-type hexaferrites (Ba₃(Co_0.4Zn_0.6)₂Fe₂₄O₄₁) with composition of Ba₃(Co_0.4Zn_0.6)₂Fe₂₄O₄₁+x Nb₂O₅ (where x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6 and 2.0 wt%) were prepared by a solid-state reaction method. The effects of different sintering temperature (T_s) and Nb₂O₅ content on the sintering behaviors, phase composing, microstructure, and magnetic properties of the samples were investigated. The results from X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy show that as the amount of Nb₂O₅ additive increases, the major phase changes to Z-phase, Simultaneously, M-phase and a small amount of niobate phase appear. The Nb₂O₅ additive promotes the grain growth as reaction center at lower sintering temperature (1220 °C), but at higher temperature (1260 °C), niobate phase separated out in grain boundaries as secondary phase will restrain abnormal grain growth, so closed pores in grains are not formed. The Nb₂O₅ additive can enhance densification, improve initial permeability of hexaferrites by increasing the grain growth of hexaferrite and the displacement of ions in the sintering process due to the aberration and activation of crystal lattice, which is accompanied by the solubility of Nb⁵⁺ in the hexaferrites. A relative density of 96%, maximum initial permeability (32–33), minimum coercivity (454–455 A/m) and resonance frequency above 400 MHz were obtained for the sample with 0.8 wt% Nb₂O₅ sintered at 1260 °C for 6 h.     

Optical absorption and thermoluminescence studies on LiF-Sb2O3-B2O3 glasses doped with Ni ions

20LiF-(30−x)Sb₂O₃-50B₂O₃:xNiO glasses with the value of x (ranging from 0 to 1.0 mol% in steps of 0.2) were prepared. A number of studies, viz. differential scanning calorimetry, optical absorption, magnetic susceptibility and thermoluminescence, on these glasses were carried out as a function of nickel ion concentration. An anomaly has been observed in all the properties of these glasses when NiO concentration is about 0.6 mol%. The results of these studies were analysed in the light of different environments of nickel ions in the glass network.     

Silane treatment of Fe3O4 and its effect on the magnetic and wear properties of Fe3O4/epoxy nanocomposites

In this study, the effect of silane treatment of Fe₃O₄ on the magnetic and wear properties of Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites was investigated. Fe₃O₄ nanopowders were prepared by coprecipitation of iron(II) chloride tetrahydrate with iron(III) chloride hexahydrate, and the surfaces of Fe₃O₄ were modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The magnetic properties of the powders were measured on unmodified and surface-modified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites using SQUID magnetometer. Wear tests were performed on unmodified and surface-modified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites under the same conditions (sliding speed: 0.18 m/s, load: 20 N).The results showed that the saturation magnetization (M_s) of surface-modified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites was approximately 110% greater than that of unmodified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites. This showed that the specific wear rate of surface-modified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites was lower than that of unmodified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites. The decrease in wear rate and the increase in magnetic properties of surface-modified Fe₃O₄/epoxy nanocomposites occurred due to the improved dispersion of Fe₃O₄ into the epoxy matrix.     

Electrodeposition and characterization of Ni-Y2O3 composite

Nano-sized Y₂O₃ particles were codeposited with nickel by electrolytic plating from a nickel sulfate bath. The effects of the incorporated Y₂O₃ on the structure, morphology and mechanical properties (including microhardness, friction coefficient and wear resistant) of Ni-Y₂O₃ composite coatings were studied. It is observed that the addition of nano-sized Y₂O₃ particles shows apparent influence on the reduction potential and pH of the electrolyte. The incorporated Y₂O₃ increases from 1.56 wt.% to 4.4 wt.% by increasing the Y₂O₃ concentration in the plating bath from 20 to 80 g/l. XRD results reveal that the incorporated Y₂O₃ particles favour the crystal faces (2 0 0) and (2 2 0). SEM and AFM images demonstrate that the addition of Y₂O₃ particles causes a smooth and compact surface. The present study also shows that the codeposited Y₂O₃ particles in deposits decrease the friction coefficient and simultaneously reduce the wear weight loss. Ni-Y₂O₃ composite coatings reach their best microhardness and tribological properties at Y₂O₃ content 4.4 wt.% under the experiment conditions.     

Preparation and wear resistance of pulse electrodeposited Ni-W/Al2O3 composite coatings

The aim of this work is to obtain the electroplating parameters for preparation of Ni-W/Al₂O₃ composite coating with high tungsten content, high micro-hardness and excellent wear resistance by pulse plating procedure. Our results showed that the duty cycle is a dominant parameter for the tungsten content in the coating and the tungsten content increases significantly with increasing duty cycle. The further analysis showed the great influence of tungsten content on micro-hardness of the coating. A maximum micro-hardness of about 859 Hv was obtained in pulse electrodeposited Ni-W/Al₂O₃ composite with tungsten content of 40 wt.% at a peak current density of 20 A/dm², a duty cycle of 80%, a pulse frequency of 1000 Hz and a particle loading of 10 g/L alumina in the plating bath. Although the hardness of Ni-W/Al₂O₃ composite coating was only slightly affected by the alumina content of the deposits prepared in present investigation, the alumina content effect on the tribological characteristic of Ni-W/Al₂O₃ composite coatings is significant. The friction coefficient was lowered to 0.25 and the wear loss was reduced to 1.05 mg by setting the control factors according to the values mentioned above for obtaining the coating with the highest micro-hardness.
