Effects of molybdenum additions on the structure, depth, and austenite grain size of the case of carburized 0.13% carbon steels

Carbon (0.13%) steel samples containing about 0.48% molybdenum (Mo) singly and in combination with nickel (Ni) were carburized in a natural Titas gas atmosphere at a temperature of 1223 K (950 °C) and at a pressure of about 0.10 MPa (15 psia) for time periods ranging from 1–4 h followed by slow cooling in the furnace. Their microstructure was studied by optical microscopy. The austenite grain size of the case and the case depths were determined. It was found that Mo and Ni alone and in combination decrease the thickness of the cementite network near the surface of the carburized case of the steels. However, Ni is found to be more effective than Mo in decreasing the thickness of cementite network. Both Mo and Ni enhance the formation of Widmanstätten cementite plates at the grain boundary and within the grains near the surface of the carburized steels. However, Ni alone is more effective than Mo in the formation of Widmanstätten cementite plates. In the presence of Ni, Mo is much more effective in the formation of Widmanstätten cementite plates than Mo in absence of Ni. It was also revealed that both Mo and Ni increased the case depth. Ni is more effective than Mo in increasing the case depth. The combined effect of Mo and Ni is much greater than that of either Mo or Ni alone in increasing case depth. Mo as Mo carbide (Mo₂C) particles refined the austenite grain size of the carburized case. Ni in solution was not found to have any effect in restricting grain growth of austenite, but the presence of Ni enhances the austenite grain size refining effect of Mo in the carburized case.     

The influence of various reaction parameters on the performance of (α‐diimine)nickel(II) catalysts in ethylene oligomerization reactions

Modified (α‐diimine)nickel(II) catalysts are suitable for ethylene oligomerization reactions. Due to the mechanism (“chain running”), the formation of double‐bond isomers and branched olefins can be observed. The obtained oligomer mixtures show a Schulz–Flory distribution. Increasing ethylene pressure favors the selectivity of α‐olefin formation. The same effect can be observed when Lewis bases like thiophene or furane are added to the oligomerization reaction mixture. These results can be related to an interaction of the additives with the catalytic active species during the oligomerization process. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ni的添加对TiB2-CU基复合材料微观组织的影响

利用燃烧合成工艺原位合成了TiB2-Cu基复合材料，为了改善TiB2陶瓷和Cu基体的润湿性，将金属Ni作为合金化元素加入到TiB2-Cu复合材料。通过XRD，SEM，EPMA和TEM等检测手段对金属Ni的添加对TiB2-Cu基复合材料微观组织的影响进行了研究。结果表明，含Ni复合材料的金属粘结相的面间距比不含Ni时Cu的面间距均有不同程度的减小；Ni加入后，TiB2-Cu-Ni复合材料的组织较TiB2-Cu复合材料更加致密，但陶瓷颗粒尺寸却大于TiB2-Cu复合材料的颗粒尺寸；Ni的加入降低了复合材料的导热率和冷却速度，使得部分TiB2陶瓷颗粒有足够的时间长成棒状，同时造成TiB2陶瓷颗粒间形成更多的烧结颈；Ni的加入也改善了陶瓷与金属粘结相之间的润湿性，使陶瓷相与金属粘结相的界面结合牢固，看不到TiB2-Cu复合材料中界面脱开的现象。金属Ni的添加有利于改善TiB2-Cu基复合材料的微观组织，进而利于复合材料的致密化。     

The electropolymerization of pyrrole at a CuNi electrode: corrosion protection properties

Pyrrole was successfully electropolymerized at a copper–nickel electrode in a near-neutral sodium oxalate solution containing Cu²⁺ cations to generate a homogenous and adherent polypyrrole film. The presence of the Cu²⁺ ions increased both the rate of the electropolymerization reaction and the adherence of the polymer at the CuNi interface. In the absence of these cations, oxidation of the electrode occurred generating a nickel-rich layer that was not sufficiently conducting, under the electropolymerization conditions employed, to facilitate the electron-transfer reaction and the electropolymerization of pyrrole.These films remained stable and exhibited significant corrosion protection properties in acidified and neutral 0.1 mol dm⁻³ NaCl solutions even on polarization of the electrodes to high anodic potentials.     

Electrochemical intercalation in NiOx thin films

In this work we investigated the mechanism of the electrochemical intercalation reactions in rf sputtered nickel oxide thin films electrodes by two techniques: mechanical stress change measurements by means of an optical technique and mass changes using an electrochemical quartz microbalance (EQCM). The experiments were performed in alkaline electrolytes containing cations of the first column of the periodic table. Reversible mass and volume changes were observed. In order to explain these experimental results, an exchange reaction is proposed, in which the oxidation process is accompanied by the deinteractional of a relative large number of “light” cations, simultaneously with the intercalation of a smaller number of heaviest cations.
