Viscosity of CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-B2O3 slags

The viscosity of CaO-SiO₂-Al₂O₃ slags with 8% MgO and 4% B₂O₃ is investigated over a broad range of composition, by means of a simplex-lattice experiment design. For slag of basicity 6–8 in the upper left region of the local simplex, with 15–25% Al₂O₃, 8% MgO, and 4% B₂O₃, the viscosity is high: 9.4–26.4 P over the range 1500–1530°C. Displacement of the slags of basicity 5–8 to the lower region of the local simplex ensures high fluidity in the given range of Al₂O₃ concentration: the viscosity is 1.5–6.1 P over the range 1500–1530°C.

Research on Glass Forming Ability of Er2O3 -Al2O3 -B2O3 -SiO2 System

The glass forming range of Er2O3-Al2O3-B2O3-SiO2 system was explored, and the effect of the content of Al2 O3 and Er2 O3 on glass-forming region was experimentally examined. It is shown that the region of glass formation range expends when the content of Al2O3 is changed from 15% to 20%, while it shrinks when the content of Er2O3 is changed from 20% to 30%. At the same time, the glass forming ability of Er2O3-Al2O3-B2O3-SiO2 system was also discussed using a value of β, which is an indication of crystallization tendency of glasses, calculated from thermo-analysis data. It is found that the glass forming ability of Er2O3-Al2O3-B2O3- SiO2 glasses is poor, while the glasses network may be enhanced when Al2O3 is added to the system, the glass forming ability being heightened. In addition, the crystallization temperatures of the rare earth glasses were determined using differential thermal analysis technique. The Er2O3-Al2O;-B2O3-SiO2 glass samples were heat treated at 1000,1100 and 1260℃ respectively. The results show that it is the Er2O3 phase that separates out from the glasses after crystaline heat treatment, and it is tiered up in glasses, as detected through XRD and SEM. This indicates that the phase separation occurs when the glasses are heated, Er3 being mainly distributed in the boron rich phase, then separated out from glasses, while the silicate rich phase remaining glassy state.

Interactions in the Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3 system

The phase diagram of the Al₂O₃-ZrO₂ system was replotted over a broad range of concentrations (0–100 mole %) and temperatures (1150–2800°C). The polymorphic transformation of zirconium F ? T occurs via the metatectic reaction F ? T + L at 2260°C. Phase triangulation was employed to plot the diagrams of the partially quasibinary sections in the Al₂O₃-ZrO₂-Y₂O₃ system. Since there is a wide solubility range based on ZrO₂ in the binary ZrO₂-Y₂O₃ system, the triangulation conodes are displaced in the F-solid solution corners. The two-phase regions Y₃A₅-F are quite broad. The reactions in all three are of the eutectic type. The ternary solid solution fields in the Al₂O₃-ZrO₂-Y₂O₃ system had no observable width.     

Wettability of silicon carbide ceramic by Al2O3/Dy2O3 and Al2O3/Yb2O3 systems

Wettability is an important phenomenon in the liquid phase sintering of silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics. This work involved a study of the wetting of SiC ceramics by two oxide systems, Al₂O₃ /Dy₂O₃ and Al₂O₃ /Yb₂O₃, which have so far not been studied for application in the sintering of SiC ceramics. Five mixtures of each system were prepared, with different compositions close to their respective eutectic ones. Samples of the mixtures were pressed into cylindrical specimens, which were placed on a SiC plate and subjected to temperatures above their melting points using a graphite resistance furnace. The behavior of the melted mixtures on the SiC plate was observed by means of an imaging system using a CCD camera and the sessile drop method was employed to determine the contact angle, the parameter that measures the degree of wettability. The results of variation in the contact angle as a function of temperature were plotted in graphic form which showed that the curves displayed a fast decline and good spreading. All the samples of the two systems presented final contact angles of 40° to 10° indicating their good wetting on SiC in the argon atmosphere. The melted/solidified area and interface between SiC and melted/solidified phase were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and their crystalline phases were identified by X-ray diffraction (DRX). The DRX analysis showed that Al₂O₃ and RE₂O₃ reacted and formed the Dy₃Al₅O₁₂ (DyAg) and Yb₃Al₅O₁₂ (YbAg) phases. The results indicated that the two systems had a promising potential as additives for the sintering of SiC ceramics.

Optical Spectroscopy of Er^3＋ and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ Co-doped Bi2O3-GeO2-B2O3-ZnO Glasses

The （60 - x）Bi2O3 - xGeO2-30B2O3-10ZnO （x = 5, 10, 20, 30 molar percent） glasses doped with Er^3＋ and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ were fabricated using the melting method. The thermal stability of the glasses was studied with their DTA curves. The results show that the difference between the glass transition temperature and the crystallization onset temperature increases with the increase of GeO2 content, indicating that the thermal stability of the glass has become better. The absorption spectra were recorded and the stimulated emission cross sections were calculated using the McCumber theory. The Ω2, O4, and Ω6 parameters,the transition probability, the radiative lifetime, and the fluorescence branch ratio of Er^3＋ for optical transition were calculated from their absorption spectra in terms of reduced matrix U^（t）（λ = 2, 4, 6） character for optical transitions. The infrared emission of Er^3＋ was measured upon excitation with 970 nm light and the full width at half-maximum （FWHM） was estimated from the emission spectra. The pumping efficiency and the intensity of the emission at the 1.54 μm band of Er^3＋ were enhanced considerably by co-doping Yb^3＋ .

B2O3在CaO-BaO-SiO2-Al2O3-CaF2精炼渣中的作用

选择w（CaO）=46％,w（BaO）=10％,w（SiO2）=11．2％,w（Al2O3）=11．6％的渣作基础渣系,将B2q作助熔剂替代CaF2,发现B2q和CaF2的助熔效果相当,B2q可用作环保型助熔剂。将CaO-SiO2-BaO-Al2O3-CaF2作基础渣系,B2O3作酸性氧化物,在碱度（m（CaO＋BaO）／m（SiO2＋B2O3））为2．5和2．8时,研究B2O3替代SiO2后精炼渣的熔化性能。结果表明,B2O3替代25％的SiO2后就可大幅度降低粘度,并且发现富硼精炼渣的高温熔化性能稳定,粘度值稳定在0．3～0．5Pa·s。在碱度为2．8wt进行脱硫工艺实验,当w（SiO2）=20．6％时渣剂脱硫率为80％,当w（SiO2）=10．3％,w（B2O3）=10．3％时渣剂脱硫率为91．3％,主要原因是熔化性能良好的熔渣有助于提高传质速率。

Density of Na_3AIF_6-AIF_3-LiF-MgF_2-Al_2O_3-Sm_2O_3 molten salt melt for Al-Sm alloy

Samarium(Sm) has been widely used in making aluminum(Al)-Sm magnet alloy materials. The research team for this study developed a molten salt electrolyte system which directly produces AI-Sm alloy to replace the energy intensive conventional distillation technology. In this study, molten melt density was measured and operation conditions were optimized to separate AI-Sm alloy product from the fluoride molten melt electrolysis media based on density differences, Archimedes' principle was applied to measure density for the basic molten fluoride system(BMFS: Na_3 AlF_6-AlF_3-LiF-MgF_2)electrolysis media in the temperature range from 905 to 1055 ℃.The impact of temperature(t) and the Al_2O_3 and Sm_2O_3 addition ratio(w_((Al2O3)),w_((Sm2O3)) in the basic fluoride system on molten melt density was examined. The fluoride molten melt density relationship was determined to be:ρ=3.11701-0.00802 w_((Al2O3))+0.027825 w_((Sm2O3))-0.00117 t. The test results showed that molten density decreases with increase in temperature and Al_2O_3 addition ratio, and increases with the addition of Sm_2O_3, and/or Al_2O_3+Sm_2O_3. The separation of Al-Sm(density 2.3 g/cm~3) product melt from the BMFS melt is achieved by controlling the BMFS density to less than 2.0 g/cm3. It is concluded that the optimal operation conditions to control the BMFS molten salt density to less than 2.0 g/cm~3 are:maintain addition of Al_2O_3+Sm_2 O_3(w_((Al2O3))+w_((Sm2O3))9% of Na_3AlF_6,Al_2O_3/Sm_2O_3 ratio(w_((Al2O3)):w_((Sm2O3))) 7:3, and temperature between 965 and 995 ℃.     

Luminescence characteristics of Dy~(3+) doped Gd_2O_3-CaO-SiO_2-B_2O_3 scintillating glasses

Glasses were prepared from the compositions of 25Gd_2O_3-10 CaO-10 SiO_2-(55–x)B_2O_3-xDy_2O_3(where x is 0.0 mol.%–1.0 mol.%) by the conventional melt-quenching technique at 1400 oC. The results demonstrated the increase in the glass density with respect to the increase in the doping concentrations of Dy_2O_3. Nine absorption bands were observed. The emission spectra of the developed glass showed two strong peaks at 577 nm(~4F_(9/2)→~6H_(13/2)) and 482 nm(~4F_(9/2)→~6H_(15/2)). The highest emission intensity was observed from the developed glass prepared at 0.4 mol.% of Dy_2O_3, as the efficient energy transfer took place from Gd~(3+) to Dy~(3+). From the X-ray induced optical luminescence, the emission spectra were identical to those from PL measurements, but with the highest intensity observed from the glass quenched at 0.45 mol.% of Dy_2O_3. Finally, the integral scintillation efficiency of the developed glass was determined at 27% of that of the commercially available BGO crystal.     

Iron redox equilibria in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 and MgO-CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 slags

Measurements have been made of the ratio of ferric to ferrous iron in CaO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ and MgO-CaO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ slags at oxygen activities ranging from equilibrium with pCO₂/pCO≈0.01 to as high as air at temperatures of 1573 to 1773 K. At 1773 K, values are given by $\begin{gathered} \log {\text{ }}\left( {\frac{{Fe^{3 + } }}{{Fe^{2 + } }}} \right) = 0.3( \pm {\text{ }}0.02){\text{ }}Y + {\text{ }}0.45( \pm {\text{ }}0.01){\text{ }}\log \hfill \\ \left( {\frac{{pCO_2 }}{{pCO}}} \right) - 1.24( \pm {\text{ }}0.01) \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $ where Y=(CaO+MgO)/SiO₂, for melts with the molar ratio of CaO/SiO₂=0.45 to 1.52, 10 to 15 mol pct Al₂O₃, up to 12 mol pct MgO (at CaO/SiO₂≈1.5), and with 3 to 10 wt pct total Fe. Available evidence suggests that, to a good approximation, these redox equilibria are independent of temperature when expressed with respect to pCO₂/pCO, probably from about 1573 to 1873 K. Limited studies have also been carried out on melts containing about 40 mol pct Al₂O₃, up to 12 mol pct MgO (at CaO/SiO₂≈1.5), and 3.6 to 4.7 wt pct Fe. These show a strongly nonideal behavior for the iron redox equilibrium, with $\frac{{Fe^{3 + } }}{{Fe^{2 + } }} \propto \left( {\frac{{pCO_2 }}{{pCO}}} \right)^{0.37} $ The nonideal behavior and the effects of basicity and Al₂O₃ concentration on the redox equilibria are discussed in terms of the charge balance model of alumino-silicates and the published structural information from Mössbauer and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy of quenched melts.
