Untersuchung der tribologischen Eigenschaften von Nutzfahrzeugmotoren unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Luftfiltration

Es wurde eine unter Betriebsverhältnissen anwendbare Prüfmethode für die Bestimmung der Verschleβeigenschaften von Verbrennungsmotoren mit Hilfe der Gammaspektrometrie der neutronenaktivierten Verschleiβprodukte ausgearbeitet und die die Lebensdauer begrenzende Wirkung des abrasiven Verschleiβes festgestellt. Durch Verbesserung der Luftfilterung konnte die potentielle Lebensdauer der Motoren gut angenähert, und es konnten die Verunreinigung des Schmieröls vermindert und die Dauer der Ölwechselperiode verdoppelt werden.     

Conversion Electron Moessbauer Spectroscopie Studies on Ion Implanted Iron Layers

Conversion electron Moessbauer spectroscopy (CEMS) is a method very suitable for the study of ion implanted iron. It is demonstrated on nitrogen and phosphorus implanted iron layers. Using this technique not the 14.4-keV-gamma-rays as in the case of the conventional Moessbauer transmission experiments but the conversion and Auger electrons are detected. These electrons have a maximum energy of 7.3 keV. The Moessbauer signal can be obtained from a surface layer of about 300 nm. But the main fraction of the signal, namely 65%, comes from the first 50 nm. This range is just interesting for ion implantation. Depending on the test conditions different iron nitrides are formed by the nitrogen implantation and the phosphorus implantation can result in both amorphization and compound formation in the implanted layer.     

Influence of high pressure treatment on rheological and other properties of egg white

Abstract

The paper deals with the influence of high pressure treatment of fresh egg white on its properties and protein composition (individual amino-acids predicted as a function of pressure and time levels). The rheological properties are changed by high pressure from Newtonian to non-Newtonian behaviour, with increasing apparent viscosity as the pressure and time increased. The pH, whipping ability, foam stability, gel strength of heat induced gels after treatment and the whole protein content, were also predicted.

The results showed that the foam stability is increased with increasing pressure and time of processing. The foam volume is also increased with pressure. The pH did not change with pressure or time of processing. Composition of proteins as indicated by individual amino-acids did not exhibit statistically important changes. Gel strength of heat induced gels prepared from previously pressured liquid whites showed no important change of values with pressure or time of treatment. The modulus of elasticity showed a decrease for samples pressured to 400 MPa for 5 up to 15 minutes.     

Hierarchical Cu precipitation in lamellated steel after multistage heat treatment

Abstract

The hierarchical distribution of Cu-rich precipitates (CRPs) and related partitioning and segregation behaviours of solute atoms were investigated in a 1.54 Cu-3.51 Ni (wt.%) low-carbon high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel after multistage heat treatment by using the combination of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography (APT). Intercritical tempering at 725 °C of as-quenched lathlike martensitic structure leads to the coprecipitation of CRPs at the periphery of a carbide precipitate which is possibly in its paraequilibrium state due to distinct solute segregation at the interface. The alloyed carbide and CRPs provide constituent elements for each other and make the coprecipitation thermodynamically favourable. Meanwhile, austenite reversion occurs to form fresh secondary martensite (FSM) zone where is rich in Cu and pertinent Ni and Mn atoms, which gives rise to a different distributional morphology of CRPs with large size and high density. In addition, conventional tempering at 500 °C leads to the formation of nanoscale Cu-rich clusters in α-Fe matrix. As a consequence, three populations of CRPs are hierarchically formed around carbide precipitate, at FSM zone and in α-Fe matrix. The formation of different precipitated features can be turned by controlling diffusion pathways of related solute atoms and further to tailor mechanical properties via proper multistage heat treatments.     

Changes of microflora in high pressure treated Indian white prawn (Fenneropenaeus indicus)

ABSTRACT

This study was to investigate the piezotolerance and diversity indices of microflora of Indian white prawn (Fenneropenaeus indicus) after high pressure (HP)-treatment. Indian white prawns subjected to HP-treatments and its effect was studied up to species level and compared with unpressurized samples. The bacterium was identified by using bacterial identification schemes, biochemical tests and API kits (bioMérieux, Marcyl’Etoile, France). Diversity analysis was performed using PRIMER (Plymouth Routines in Multivariate Research) software v 5.2.2. The significant elimination of microflora was found to be proportional with the pressure level. In the case of spore formers, mere destruction was noticed after HP-treatment. Arthrobacter spp., Listeria grayi and Corynebacterium spp. were the most piezotolerant bacteria in HP-treated samples. Diversity indices revealed a significant reduction of microflora of Indian white prawn. The apparent reduction of microflora with pressure level was clearly evident from the diversity indices; moreover a diminished piezotolerance of Gram negative spoilage bacteria was also observed.     

白色荧光粉CaF2∶Yb3+/Eu3+/La3+的制备及其上转换发光特性

采用改进的两步高温固相熔融法制备了Yb^3+、Eu^3+、La^3+共掺杂CaF 2的上转换荧光粉。基于荧光猝灭原理,通过改变La^3+掺杂浓度来调节CaF 2∶Yb^3+/Eu^3+材料的发光性能,并在980 nm近红外光激发下,获得了该材料的白色上转换发光(UCL)。在该发光体系中,Yb^3+不仅起到了敏化Eu^3+的作用,同时,Yb^3+二聚体(Yb^3+-dimer)自身合作发出波长范围480~540 nm的绿色荧光。而白光三基色中的绿光正是来自Yb^3+二聚体的合作发光。Eu^3+则作为激活剂,同时发出红色和蓝色荧光。荧光寿命测试结果表明Yb^3+-dimer与Eu^3+之间存在有效的能量传递。值得注意的是,在980 nm激光激发下,1%La^3+掺杂的样品表现出最佳的红、绿、蓝三基色光比列,实现了材料的上转换白光发射,其色度坐标为(0.311,0.340)。
