稀土钕对激光快速成形TC4合金组织及性能的影响

针对氢化脱氢钛合金粉末氧含量较高的问题，研究了添加稀土钕对激光快速成形TC4合金组织及性能的影响。结果发现，添加稀土Nd后，激光快速成形TC4合金的宏观晶粒尺寸变化不大；但随稀土添加量的增加，初始β列状晶逐渐转化为全β等轴晶，晶粒内部的魏氏α组织逐渐转变为网篮α，粗化α条不断增多，呈现团束聚集趋势，晶界α集束体积分数也不断增大；随稀土添加量的增加，激光快速成形TC4合金的室温塑性先大幅度提高，然后急剧降低；稀土添加量为0．1％～0．2％（质量分数，下同）时，氧含量为0．26％的氢化脱氢TC4合金粉末激光快速成形件沉积态的抗拉强度达975MPa，延伸率9．5％，满足锻件标准要求。

二元稀土系AB5型贮氢电极合金的放电容量与晶胞体积和4f电子浓度的关系

制备了6个系列通式为AαA‘1-αB5的RE(NiCoMnTi)5贮氢电极合金(其中，AαA‘1-α为La，Ce，Pr，Nd4个元素中任意2个的组合)，测定了它们在100次循环中的最大放电容量Cmax及部分合金的晶胞体积Vcell．结果表明：Cmax主要由Vcell决定，Cmax先随Vcell的增大而增加，在Vcell≈85．66x10^-^3。nm^3时达到一极大值，然后又随Vcell的增大而减小；同时，Cmax还与4f电子浓度ne4f／naRE有关，A侧具有相同4f电子浓度的合金其Cmax随4f电子浓度的变化趋势相似．     

稀土元素对硬质合金高温性能的影响

针对典型的Mg-Al-Zn系AZ31变形镁合金以及添加了0．8％Ce和0．8％Nd的AZ31镁合金，研究了合金在轧制加工过程中组织与性能的变化以及稀土元素对合金的影响，并探讨了合金的主要强化机制。结果表明：Mg-Al-Zn系合金轧制加工过程中加丁硬化严重，容易发生脆性断裂。添加稀土元素后的合金强度和塑性都有明显提高，稀土元素可形成Al4ce等含稀土化合物，起到细晶强化和第二相强化作用。     

稀土元素对钯室温电学性能的影响

研究了稀浓度(0.6at％以下)稀土元素(La、Ce、Pr、Nd、Sm、Eu、Gd、Tb、Dy、Er、Yb)对钯的室温电学性能的影响。所有稀土元素均提高钯的电阻率(p)、降低电阻温度系数(α),实验结果与理论分析证明(p·α)_((?)d-RE)d=(p·α)_(Pd)。Gd以前的稀土元素降低钯的对铜热电势(ε),其余重稀土元素增大钯的对铜热电势。按0.1at％RE归一化处理的实验数据表明,轻稀土元素对钯电阻率的影响稍大于重稀土,但Ce、Eu、Yb呈反常影响,化合价和尺寸因素是影响电学性能的主要因素。     

Reaction process of monazite and bastnaesite mixed rare earth minerals calcined by CaO-NaCl-CaCl2

The decomposition reactions of monazite and bastnaesite mixed rare earth minerals calcined by CaO-NaCl-CaCl2 were studied by means of TG-DTA and XRD. The results show that the process of the minerals decomposed by CaO involves two steps. The first step occurs in the temperature range of 425-540 ℃, and the main reactions are bastnaesite decomposition, i.e. REOF reacts with CaO to produce RE2O3 and CaF2, and Ce2O3 is oxidized to CeO2. During this step, CaCO3 is formed at about 500 ℃. The second step takes place in the temperature range of 610-700 ℃, and the reactions are monazite decomposition into RE2O3, Ca5F（PO4）3 and Ca3（PO4）2 by CaO and CaF2. In this process, the decomposition ability is improved because CaO from CaCO3 decomposing has high chemical activity. In calcining process, the new formed Ca5F（PO4）3 restrains fluorine that can escape in form of gaseous compound. The decomposition ratio of the mixed rare earth minerals reaches 90.8% at 700 ℃.     

Photocatalytic syngas synthesis from CO2 and H2O using ultrafine CeO2-decorated layered double hydroxide nanosheets under visible-light up to 600 nm

The rational design of photocatalyst that can effectively reduce CO₂ under visible light(l>400 nm),and simultaneously precise control of the products syngas(CO/H2)ratio is highly desirable for the Fischer-Tropsch reaction.In this work,we synthesized a series of CeO₂-decorated layered double hydroxides(LDHs,Ce-x)samples for photocatalytic CO₂ reduction.It was found that the selectivity and productivity of CO and H₂ from photoreduction of CO₂ in conjunction with Ru-complex as photosensitizer performed an obvious“volcano-like”trend,with the highest point at Ce-0.15 and the CO/H₂ ratio can be widely tunable from 1/7.7 to 1/1.3.Furthermore,compared with LDH,Ce-0.15 also drove photocatalytic CO₂ to syngas under 600 nm irradiation.It implied that an optimum amount of CeO₂ modifying LDH promoted the photoreduction of CO₂ to syngas.This report gives the way to fully utilize the rare earth elements and provides a promising route to enhance the photo-response ability and charge injection efficiency of LDH-based photocatalysts in the synthesis of syngas with a tunable ratio under visible light irradiation.
