铁基含油轴承材料表面硫化改性及摩擦学性能

为改善边界润滑工况下铁基含油轴承材料的摩擦学性能,采用低温液体渗硫技术在材料表面形成一层固体渗硫层,微观检测渗硫层形貌与成分,并在端面摩擦磨损试验机上进行摩擦学实验,分析其摩擦磨损性能与自润滑机理。结果表明:渗硫层中固体润滑剂的主要成分为FeS,硫化物沿着基体孔道由材料表面向内部扩散,渗硫层的厚度约为15μm;与未硫化材料相比,硫化材料的摩擦因数明显降低,且硫化时间越长,轴承表面渗硫层的减摩性能越好;表面硫化改性后,利用轴承基体多孔含油与表面渗硫层的液固协同润滑作用,其综合摩擦磨损性能比单纯固体润滑或单纯油润滑的减摩性能都要好,边界润滑工况下的抗擦伤、抗咬合性能得到改善。     

CaCuO2颗粒尺寸对双粉法制备Bi系高温超导带材性能的影响

本文通过基于共沉淀工艺的双粉法制备了Bi_1.76Pb_0.34Sr_1.93Ca_2.0Cu_3.06O_8+d (Bi-2223)前驱体粉末。在这一过程中,首先单独制备了Bi_1.76Pb_0.34Sr_1.93CaCu_2.06O_8+d (Bi-2212)和CaCuO₂(实际相组成为Ca₂CuO₃和CuO)粉末,并分别进行了烧结。通过调节共沉淀工艺过程中的pH值,获得了颗粒尺寸不同的CaCuO₂粉末,然后将Bi-2212与其按照相组成相组成为1:1进行混合,并装入Ag包套中,通过一系列的旋锻、拉拔和轧制工艺,获得设计尺寸的Bi-2223带材。比表面积测试表明随着pH值从3.0增加到5.0和6.5,获得CaCuO₂粉末的平均颗粒尺寸从1.1减小到0.75和0.60 mm。通过扫描电镜对不同尺寸CaCuO₂颗粒制备的Bi-2223生带、第一次热处理和后处理之后带材的相组成和分布进行了表征。结果表明,适当尺寸的CaCuO₂颗粒可以避免团聚现象的出现,因此有利于高载流性能带材的获得。最终通过进一步调节带材的尺寸,1#带材的性能最高,达到了12200 Acm^_-2。     

Process−microstructure−properties relationship in Al−CNTs−Al2O3 nanocomposites manufactured by hybrid powder metallurgy and microwave sintering process

Al−2CNTs−xAl₂O₃ nanocomposites were manufactured by a hybrid powder metallurgy and microwave sintering process. The correlation between process-induced microstructural features and the material properties including physical and mechanical properties as well as ultrasonic parameters was measured. It was found that physical properties including densification and physical dimensional changes were closely associated with the morphology and particle size of nanocomposite powders. The maximum density was obtained by extensive particle refinement at milling time longer than 8 h and Al₂O₃ content of 10 wt.%. Mechanical properties were controlled by Al₂O₃ content, dispersion of nano reinforcements and grain size. The optimum hardness and strength properties were achieved through incorporation of 10 wt.% Al₂O₃ and homogenous dispersion of CNTs and Al₂O₃ nanoparticles (NPs) at 12 h of milling which resulted in the formation of high density of dislocations and extensive grain size refinement. Also both longitudinal and shear velocities and attenuation increase linearly by increasing Al₂O₃ content and milling time. The variation of ultrasonic velocity and attenuation was attributed to the degree of dispersion of CNTs and Al₂O₃ and also less inter-particle spacing in the matrix. The larger Al₂O₃ content and more homogenous dispersion of CNTs and Al₂O₃ NPs at longer milling time exerted higher velocity and attenuation of ultrasonic wave.     

Graphite powder coated polyurethane sponge hollow tube as a high-efficiency and cost-effective oil-removal materials for continuous oil collection from water surface

In this study, the cost-effective graphite powder (GPd)-coated polyurethane (PGPd-PU) sponge hollow tube (PGPd-PUHT) was prepared for high-efficient continuous oil removal, the hydrophobicity-superoleophilicity PGPd-PU sponge was fabricated through a simple dip-coating method, which dipping PU sponge into GPd dispersion and drying, then coating polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) on sponge skeleton, as-prepared sponge could selectively absorb a variety of oils up to 34 times of its own weight for dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The PGPd-PUHT was prepared via wrapping PGPd-PU sponge on porous tubular support. The obtained PGPd-PUHT could continuously collect various types of oils from water surface with flux as high as 1.52 kL/m²h, and excellent separation efficiency (up to 97.7%) for toluene, as well as remarkable reusability. Moreover, a continuous floating oil collection device based on PGPd-PUHT was designed which showed excellent floating oil collection ability. In addition, our strategy possesses the advantages of low cost, simple preparation, highly efficient, and easily scale-up, showing a great potential for dealing with practical oil spill remediation. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of Si/Ti additions on physico-mechanical and chemical properties of FeNiCrCo high entropy alloys manufactured by powder metallurgy technique

FeNiCrCoSi_x and FeNiCrCoTi_x (x=0, 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 wt.%) high entropy alloys (HEAs) were prepared via the powder metallurgy technique. A homogenous distribution of the elements in all alloys due to the formation of a solid solution phase is observed. The density and hardness of the prepared HEAs are improved by Si and Ti additions, compared to FeNiCrCo HEA. The wear rate of the prepared alloys was studied at different loads and the results indicate that the alloys that contain 0.3 wt.% Si and 0.9 wt.% Ti have the lowest wear rates. X-ray diffraction, SEM, and EDX were used to understand the phases, grain sizes, and microstructures in different investigated HEAs. The effects of Si and Ti content on the corrosion behavior and surface morphologies of sintered FeNiCrCoSi_x and FeNiCrCoTi_x HEAs were studied by immersion in H₂SO₄, HNO₃, and HCl solutions. Uniform corrosion and localized pitting are observed in different sizes in the corrosive media used. Because of the smaller pit size and the reduced pit density, the FeNiCrCoSi_0.3 HEA has an excellent microstructure.     

Effect of coral sand powders and seawater salinity on the impact mechanical properties of cemented coral sand

Coral sand is one kind of the important building materials in coral reef engineering practice. The use of cement as a stabilizing agent can significantly improve the mechanical properties of coral sands and is widely applied in the subbase engineering construction in coral reef islands. Cement-stabilized coral sand structures may contain high contents of fine coral particles and salinity because of the high crushability of coral sands and the existence of seawater surrounding them. In this study, the effects of coral sand powders and seawater salinity on the dynamic mechanical properties of cemented coral sand (CCS) were investigated through the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) tests and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. It was found that the strength (i.e., the peak stress) of CCS specimens increased firstly and then decreased with the increase of powder content. The specimens reached the maximum peak stress when 3% powder content was included. The initial improvement of CCS strength was attributed to the pore-filling effect of coral powders, namely, the micro pores of the CCS specimens could be more effectively filled with higher percentages of coral powders being used in the experiments. However, excessive coral powders resulted in the reduction of specimen strength because these powders could easily be cemented into agglomerates by absorbing water from the specimens. These agglomerates could reduce the cementation strength between the coarse coral particles and the cement. Meanwhile, the peak stress of CCS specimens was found to be negatively correlated with the average strain rate and the ultimate strain. The degree of specimen fracture was found to be correlated with the amount of specific energy absorption during the tests. Furthermore, the “sulfate attack” caused by the inclusion of salinity of water had different influences on the CCS specimens with different coral powder contents. The ettringite and gypsum produced in “sulfate attack” could fill the pores and lead to cracking of the specimens, significantly affecting the specimen strength.

Synthesis of Invar 36 type alloys from elemental and prealloyed powders by mechanical alloying

Invar 36 (Fe₆₄Ni₃₆) nanocrystalline powders were successfully obtained by the mechanical alloying process. The mechanically alloyed Invar 36 powders were obtained from both, Fe–Ni elemental and Fe–Ni₃Fe prealloyed powders. XRD, DSC and magnetic measurements were used to characterise the Invar 36 powders. The lattice parameter evolution versus temperature of Invar 36 powders was investigated by in-situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction (HT-XRD). For both, Invar 36 (Fe, Ni) and Invar 36 (Fe, Ni₃Fe) powders, the lattice parameter values are constant up to about 350°C. The magnetic measurement also indicated that the Invar 36-type alloys are formed after 16?h of milling.     

Reactions of microcrystalline fullerene C60 with amino and aza macrocyclic ligands under solvent-free conditions

We evaluated the reactivity under solvent-free conditions of 2-aminomethyl-15-crown-5 (AM15C5), 2-aminomethyl-18-crown-6 (AM18C6), 1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadecane (TACPD) and rac-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (tet b) with microcrystalline fullerene C₆₀. The reactions of nucleophilic addition were carried out at temperatures of about 160°C for 5 h in the case of crown ethers and TACPD, and at 180–190°C for 24 h in the case of tet b. Characterization of the products obtained was performed by using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy, laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (LDI-TOF) mass spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). To provide an additional insight into the reactivity of macrocyclic compounds with C₆₀ molecules, we employed theoretical calculations in the frame of density functional theory (DFT). According to the results of SEM imaging, macrocyclic reagents are generally unable to deeply penetrate into the bulk of fullerene microcrystals (with a possible exception of TACPD). According to TGA measurements, the reaction efficiency is very low for tet b, whereas the average content of organic fraction in C₆₀-AM15C5 and C₆₀-AM18C6 reaches about 29%, and in C₆₀-TACPD, almost 40%. According to LDI-TOF mass spectral analysis, the products of TACPD, tet b and AM15C5 reactions with fullerene have oligomeric or polymeric structure. By using DFT theoretical calculations, the latter observation was explained by enhanced reactivity of secondary amino groups toward nucleophilic addition onto fullerene cage.     

Effect of laver powder on textual,rheological properties and water distribution of squid (Dosidicus gigas) surimi gel

In order to ameliorate the gel quality of Dosidicus gigas surimi, the effects of laver powder on gel properties, rheological properties, and water-holding capacity (WHC) were investigated. Results indicated that the addition of laver powder could significantly increase the hardness, chewiness, and breaking force of surimi gels. However, the texture indexes and gel strength began to decline when additional amount exceeded 0.6%. Rheological results demonstrated that the addition of laver powder increased the storage modulus (G′) and viscosity of surimi, prolonged protein denaturation temperature in surimi gels. Moreover, the WHC of surimi gel was improved with the increase of laver powder. Further analyses in low-field nuclear magnetic resonance revealed that laver powder could shorten the transverse relaxation time, enhanced the combination with water, and altered the distribution of different water categories. The proportion of bound water and immobilized water reached its maximum and minimum at 0.6% of laver powder, respectively. Correlation analyses showed that WHC of surimi gel was negatively correlated well with the proportion of loose-bound water, but positively correlated with the strong-bound water and free water. In conclusion, the results supported that 0.6% was the optimal additional amount of laver powder for the squid-based surimi production based on the current ingredients of surimi products.
