Optimization of structural,electrical, and magnetic properties of ytterbium substituted W-type hexaferrite for multi-layer chip inductors

The rare earth (Yb³⁺) substituted W-type hexagonal ferrites with composition CaPb_2-xYb_xFe₁₆O₂₇ (x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) were synthesized by a facile and cost-effective sol-gel auto combustion method with post heat treatment. The synthesized hexagonal ferrites were characterized by a variety of analytical techniques, and an impedance analyzer was used to investigate the effects of Ytterbium on structural, magnetic, spectral and dielectric properties. The relationship between their impedance, structure and dielectric properties was investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns verify the presence of single-phase W-type hexagonal ferrites. Physical properties such as D_bulk (bulk density), D_xrd (X-ray density), and P (porosity) of the CaPb_2-xYb_xFe₁₆O₂₇ W-type hexagonal ferrites were calculated. The bulk density of all the samples was decreased, and X-ray intensity was increased with the Ytterbium replacement in the W-type hexaferrite. By adding Yb³⁺ ions, the lattice parameters, cell volume and X-ray density were reduced due to the substitution of ytterbium with smaller ionic radii compared to the lead ion with large ionic radii. The AC-conductivity was increased from (1.523 × 10^?5 to 6.699 × 10^?5) Ωcm^?1. The dielectric constant and tangent loss was found to decrease substantially. The magnetic properties were found to enhance by the substitution of Yb³⁺. The low coercivity value of Yb³⁺ substituted W-type hexagonal ferrites are suitable for magnetic recording media operated at a high-frequency regime. The enhancement of electrical, dielectric and magnetic characteristics suggests these materials as promising for multi-layer chip inductors (MLCIs) circuit applications.     

Sn-containing Si3N4-based composites for adaptive excellent friction and wear in a wide temperature range

Ceramic design based on reducing friction and wear-related failures in moving mechanical systems has gained tremendous attention due to increased demands for durability, reliability and energy conservation. However, only few materials can meet these requirements at high temperatures. Here, we designed and prepared a Sn-containing Si₃N₄-based composite, which displayed excellent tribological properties at high temperatures. The results showed that the friction coefficient and wear rate of the composites were reduced to 0.27 and 4.88 × 10^?6 mm³ N^?1 m^?1 in air at 800 °C. The wear mechanism of the sliding pairs at different temperatures was revealed via detailed analyses of the worn surfaces. In addition, the tribo-driven graphitization was detected on the wear surfaces and in the wear debris, and the carbon phase was identified by SEM, TEM, and Raman spectrum.     

Corrosive wear behavior of HVOF-sprayed micro-nano-structured Cr3C2–NiCr cermet coatings under aqueous media

A novel micro-nano-structured Cr₃C₂–NiCr cermet coating was prepared on 316L stainless steel by high-velocity oxygen fuel spraying technology (HVOF). Cermet coatings with different contents of micro-and nano-sized Cr₃C₂ particles as the hard phase and a NiCr alloy matrix as the bonding phase were prepared and characterized in terms of porosity, microhardness, and corrosive wear resistance in a 3.5% NaCl solution and artificial seawater. Compared to nanostructured coatings, micro-nano-structured coatings avoid decarburization and reduce nanoparticle agglomeration during the spray process, and mechanical and electrochemical properties were improved in comparison with those of conventional coatings. The micro-nano-structured Cr₃C₂–NiCr coating rendered low porosity (≤0.34%) and high microhardness (≥1105.0HV_0.3). The coating comprising 50% nano-sized Cr₃C₂ grains exhibited the best corrosive wear resistance owing to its densest microstructure and highest microhardness. Furthermore, compared to static corrosion, the dynamic corrosion of the coatings led to more severe mechanical wear, because corrosion destroyed the coating surface and ions promoted corrosion to invade coatings through the pores during corrosion wear.     

Exploring the influences of the counterpart materials on friction and wear behaviors of atmospheric plasma-sprayed YSZ coating

Sliding wear behaviors of atmospheric plasma-sprayed Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) coating mated with four metallic or ceramic counterparts (Si₃N₄, Al₂O₃, GCr15 and ZrO₂) were investigated. It has been found that YSZ coatings in contact with Si₃N₄ and GCr15 show better tribological performances than the other cases, which is due to the formation of the tribolayer mainly consisting of Si₃N₄ and Fe₂O₃ respectively on the worn surfaces. In the case of YSZ coating-Al₂O₃ and YSZ coating-ZrO₂ tribopairs, the wear debris are more irregular and larger in size, resulting in severe abrasive wear and brittle fracture of debris particles. In particular, the specific wear rate of YSZ coating sliding against GCr15 is negative due to the significant material transfer of the tribo-oxide layer, while that of YSZ coating sliding against ZrO₂ is the highest. Amorphization of the wear particles appears in the four cases due to the repeated mechanical action. It has been demonstrated that the wear of YSZ coating deteriorates with the increased flash temperature between the contact surfaces during rubbing process.
