铜铝合金中γ_2相沉淀的分析电镜研究

Cu-12.7(wt)%Al合金从900℃高温淬至365℃～500℃温度范围等温不同时间(30秒至15分钟)的试样中形成了大量树枝状的γ_2相沉淀粒子。应用配有X线能谱仪(XEDS)和电子能量损失谱仪(EELS)的分析电子显微镜(JEOL JEM-2000FX型)对上还试样研究,结果表明:这些γ_2相粒子具有富铝的“核心”,长大到粒子线度大于约800nm后以不稳定方式生长成“花朵”状。生长过程中伴随着溶质元素Al由基体向γ_2相内的富集。而且在γ_2相粒子内部呈现出Spinodal分解组织的形貌特征,表明γ_2粒子内形成了化学成分调幅。EELS分析表明试样含氧。     

Some problems concerning the use of automated radiochemical separation systems in destructive neutron activation analysis

The present state of a long term program is reviewed. It was started to elaborate a remote controlled automated radiochemical processing system for the neutron activation analysis of biological materials. The system is based on wet ashing of the sample, followed by reactive desorption of some volatile components. The distillation residue is passed through a series of columns filled with selective ion screening materials to remove the matrix activity. The solution is thus “stripped” from the interfering radioions, and it is processed to single-elements through group separations using ion-exchange chromatographic techniques. Some special problems concerning this system are treated. (a) General aspects of the construction of a (semi)automated radiochemical processing system are discussed; (b) Comparison is made between various technical realizations of the same basic concept; (c) Some problems concerning the “reconstruction” of an already published processing system are outlined.     

Temperature Development of Homo- and Hetero-Clustering in Saturated Vapors

Computational findings of temperature increase of clustering degree in saturated vapors are analyzed. A thermodynamic proof is presented and a simple criterion derived. Illustrations are based on saturated steam, magnesium and carbon vapor. The results are applicable to synthesis of fullerenes, metallofullerenes, and heterofullerenes, chemical vapor deposition technique, or atmospheric chemistry.     

Emanation Thermal Analysis of SiC Based Materials

Results of emanation thermal analysis (ETA) characterizing microstructure changes of SiC based materials during heat treatment in argon are demonstrated. This method made it possible to reveal fine changes of the texture of SiC nano-sized powders, SiC micro-sized powders and SiC whiskers under in situconditions of the heating. ETA curves can serve as fingerprints of the respective samples.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.
