Structural materials: metal-silicon-Boron. The Nb-rich corner of the Nb-Si-B system

Phase equilibria in the Nb-Nb₅Si₃-NbB region were studied in the melting (crystallization) range by means of light microscopy, XRD, SEM and EMPA on alloys after arc-melting and annealing at 1800°C and at subsolidus temperatures. Phase transition and melting temperatures were determined by DTA and pyrometric Pirani-Alterthum technique resulting in a solidus projection and two isopleths, Nb₇₇Si₂₃-Nb₇₇B₂₃ and Nb₉₉Si₁-Nb₅Si₂B. The T₂-phase Nb₅Si_3−xB_x (0?x?2, Cr₅B₃-type) was found to form equilibria with (Nb), NbB, Nb₃Si, and with the T₁-phase (Mn₅Si₃ derivative type). The T₂-phase melts incongruently (Nb₅Si_1.8B_1.2 at 2245°C) and forms a quasibinary eutectic with the niobium solid solution on a minimum tie-line at ∼1880°C.     

Identification by Electron Probe Microbeam Analysis of Submicron Borides in Joints of Nickel Base Superalloys

The phases formed at the interface between an intermetallic (NiAl) and a nickel base superalloy joined by combustion synthesis were investigated, particularly the eutectic phases. Owing to their small size, the characterisation of these phases using a Castaings electron microprobe encounters difficulties. The analysis volume size is generally too large to differentiate the phases from their surrounding matrix, even by using low accelerating voltage. Moreover, the eutectic phases contain boron, which is difficult to characterise by EPMA. Independently of the phases shape, the characterisation can be solved by viewing this complex system as a surrounding matrix and a multi layer system. The results of these simulations revealed the presence of two categories of borides: the eutectic boride MM₂B₂ (M=Mo and M=Co, Cr) and the solid solution boride [Cr_1–x (Mo, W)_x]B.     

A novel route to nanosized molybdenum boride and carbide and/or metallic molybdenum by thermo-synthesis method from MoO3, KBH4, and CCl4

Nanosized molybdenum boride and carbide were synthesized from MoO₃, KBH₄, and CCl₄ by thermo-synthesis method at lower temperature. The relative content of Mo, Mo₂C, and molybdenum boride in the product was decided by the molar ratio between MoO₃, KBH₄, and CCl₄. Increasing the molar ratio of CCl₄ to MoO₃ was favorable to the production of Mo₂C. Increasing the molar ratio of KBH₄ to MoO₃ was favorable to the production of molybdenum boride. By carefully adjusting the reaction conditions and annealing in Ar at 900°C, a single phase of MoB could be obtained.

Nickel Boride–Mediated Cleavage of 1,3-Dithiolanes: A Convenient Approach to Reductive Desulfurization

1,3-Dithiolanes are rapidly cleaved by nickel boride, generating corresponding hydrocarbons in excellent yields. The hydrogenolysis is rapid at room temperature and does not require protection from the atmosphere. Mild reaction conditions, simple workup, and good yields of pure products are some of the major advantages of the procedure.     

甘油氧化的光谱电化学傅里叶变换衰减全反射谱红外光谱薄膜流动池中硼酸镍层厚度的优化

在碱性甘油电氧化反应中,利用电化学傅里叶变换衰减全反射谱红外光谱法,研究了薄膜流动池中滴注硼酸镍催化剂负载量对玻碳电极性能的影响.连续操作的径向流动池包括一个位于内反射元件上方50μm的钻孔电极,可实现红外光谱分析.这是在确定条件下对电催化剂进行简便和可重复筛选的一个适合的方法,同时还提供了对复杂反应(如甘油氧化)产物选择性的检测.通过对泵送电解液进行更耗时的定量高效液相色谱分析,结果表明,衰减全反射红外光谱法可快速鉴定产物.在层流条件下,水中使用0.1 M甘油和1 M KOH,流速为5μL min-1时,甘油转化率较高.转化率和选择性取决于催化剂的负载量,负载量又决定了催化剂层的厚度和粗糙度.由于在更粗糙的膜中停留时间更长有利于再吸附和C-C键断裂,因此当负载量最高达210μg cm-2时,甘油转化率为73％且甲酸选择性接近80％.当最低负载量为13μg cm-2时,甘油转化率达到63％,甲酸选择性降至60％,相应地,C2物种(如乙醇酸盐)选择性较高,为8％.因此,只有催化剂负载量较低时才能形成几微米厚度范围内的薄膜,此时才适合进行优质催化剂的筛选.     

Development and application of high strength ternary boride base cermets

Reaction boronizing sintering is a novel strategy to form a ternary boride coexisting with a metal matrix in a cermet during liquid phase sintering. This new sintering technique has successfully developed world first ternary boride base cermets with excellent mechanical properties such as Mo₂FeB₂, Mo₂NiB₂ and WCoB base ones.In these cermets Mo₂FeB₂ and Mo₂NiB₂ base ones consist of a tetragonal M₃B₂ (M: metal)-type complex boride as a hard phase and a transition metal base matrix. The cermets have already been applied to wear resistant applications such as injection molding machine parts, can making tools, and hot copper extruding dies, etc.This paper focuses on the characteristics, effects of the additional elements on the mechanical properties and structure, and practical applications of the ternary boride base cermets.     

Experimental Verification of the Theoretical Prediction of High‐Temperature Superconductivity in Phases of Titanium Borides TiB k

Theoretical predictions of hightemperature superconductivity (HTSC) in titanium borides, TiBk, have been experimentally verified. These predictions have been reported previously in the form of theoretical phase diagrams. They predicted the existence of HTSC in TiB _k (1.43 < k < 2.57) phases and in TiB_1.5–1.6. An abrupt decrease at 110 K was found on the temperature curve of conductivity R(T) for titanium samples whose surfaces were coated with diffuse layers of depthvariable boride compositions TiB _k . This indicates that the layers include phases possessing HTSC. This behavior of the R(T) curves is explained assuming that the inclusions of HTSC phases have a strong effect on the resistance of the composite materials at T_c. The composition of the boride layers has been investigated by mass spectrometry. Diffuse boride layers were applied to titanium surface by treating its surface with a B₂H₆ + H₂ gas mixture at 610–700°C followed by annealing in vacuum.
