Ferroelectric properties of ultrathin films of Nylon 11

Ferroelectric properties of ultrathin films of Nylon 11 were investigated. The thickness was in the range of 25 to 55 nm. Ferroelectric response was largely affected by thermal annealing and following cooling conditions. Thermal annealing at higher temperature followed by quenching in liquid nitrogen gave larger remanent polarization and smoother surface, whereas cooling down in an ambient atmosphere caused smaller remanent polarization and rough surface. Surface roughness strongly affected the polarization reversal and remanent polarization. Hydrogen bonding in crystal was also significantly related to the polarization reversal and thus remanent polarization.

Enhanced dielectric properties of low density polyethylene with bismuth sulfide used as inorganic filler

A series of Bi₂S₃/LDPE composites, with low density polyethylene (LDPE) as matrix and bismuth sulfide as filler, are fabricated by a simple process. The microstructure, dielectric properties and tensile strength of the composites have been studied. The variation of dielectric properties of the Bi₂S₃/LDPE composites with the volume fraction of Bi₂S₃, frequency and temperature is discussed. The composites have significantly high dielectric constants and good thermal stability, with a quite low percolation threshold. The addition of low content of Bi₂S₃ significantly improves the dielectric constant of polymer matrix from 3 to above 60 at 100 Hz.

Effect of filler content on the dielectric properties of anisotropic conductive adhesives materials for high-frequency flip–chip interconnection

The dielectric property of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) as an interconnect materials in the flip–chip joints is becoming important concern for device packaging solution at high-frequency due to low parasitic effect on the signal transfer. The effects of non-conductive, dielectric filler content on dielectric properties of ACA materials, like dielectric constant, loss factor and loss tangent, and conductivity at high-frequency were investigated. Frequency is dominating factor in determining dielectric constant, loss factor, and conductivity. However, the filler content is dominant only on dielectric constant, not on the loss factor, and conductivity at low-frequency range. The effect of low dielectric constant (low-k) filler addition on high-frequency behavior of ACF interconnection in flip–chip assembly was also investigated. Impedance parameters of low-k ACF with Ni filler and low-k SiO₂ filler extracted from measurement were compared with that of conventional ACF with only Ni filler. The resonant frequency of conventional ACF flip–chip interconnect was 13 GHz, while the resonant frequency of low-k ACF including low-k SiO₂ filler was found at 15 GHz. This difference is originated from capacitance decrease of polymer matrix between bump and substrate pad due to change in dielectric constant of polymer matrix, which was verified by measurement-based modeling. The high-frequency property of the conductive adhesive flip–chip joint, such as resonant frequency can be enhanced by low-k polymer matrix.     

Influence of the filler metal on the mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V electron beam weldments

The influence of various filler metals on the mechanical properties of 17 mm thick Ti-6Al-4V electron beam welded joints has been analysed. Autogeneous welded joints exhibit higher toughness when compared to the parent plate but this improvement was less marked than that observed in plasma arc welded joints. To achieve better toughness, without suffering unacceptable losses of strength, different morphologies of commercially pure titanium filler metals have been employed. Using 0.50 mm thick sheet as filler metal leaded to maximum toughness but as counterpart a significant decrease in strength was observed. To obtain high toughness while maintaining a high strength level 0.25 mm sheet and 1 mm diameter filler metals are recommended. Fractographic examination of the failed specimens helped to explain the fracture behaviour of the different welded joints.     

Ni-Cr-P焊膏钎焊C/C复合材料的组织和性能

用真空熔炼、惰性气体雾化法制备Ni-Cr-P金属粉末,再加入有机黏结剂高速搅拌,制备Ni14Cr10P膏状活性钎料。用制备好的焊膏真空钎焊C/C复合材料,测试钎焊接头的剪切强度,通过OM,SEM,EDS,XRD等对钎焊接头界面组织结构进行分析。结果表明:在钎焊温度1000℃、保温时间0.5 h条件下,获得的接头剪切强度达到28.6 MPa,然后随着钎焊温度上升或保温时间延长,钎焊接头强度下降;通过界面组织结构分析发现焊膏可以增加钎料层与C/C复合材料表面的接触面积,有利于堵塞C/C复合材料表面的孔隙。焊后在界面处形成了交错分布的Cr碳化物相缓冲层,使得界面呈现热膨胀系数梯度增加的结构,有助于缓解热失配,提高C/C复合材料钎焊接头强度。

电极对CaCu3Ti4O12陶瓷介电性能的影响

通过研究在不同气氛(氮气和氧气),CaCu3Ti4O12(CCTO)陶瓷样品在一定温度下进行后处理后,不同功函数电极对其介电性质的影响,进而研究CCTO陶瓷的巨介电常数的起源问题.我们在空气中制备了CaCu3Ti4O12陶瓷,发现样品表面电阻率很大,样品表面呈现绝缘态,此时不同功函数电极以及不同电极制备方法对其介电性质几乎没有影响,说明CCTO的巨介电常数是由孪晶界或半导体晶粒与绝缘晶界所产生的内部阻挡电容(IBLC)所引起.但当样品在高温氮气中后处理后,样品表面电阻率明显下降,以较大功函数的金属作为电极的样品,其介电常数有了明显的提高,而以功函数小的金属作为电极的样品,其介电常数变化不大.从而进一步说明当CCTO样品表面处于半导态,表面电极效应也是CCTO巨介电常数来源之一.

The effect of sterilising radiation on the properties of Nylon 66

The effects of sterilising radiation on the properties of Nylon 66 have been measured by tensile testing, and thermomechanical analysis. It was found that both tensile modulus and yield stress show an initial fall and subsequent increase with increasing dose. Calorimetric analysis shows that no change in crystal content occurred during irradiation. The mechanical results are therefore explained by competitive chain scission and cross-linking processes occurring within the amorphous region. A general reaction mechanism is proposed and is supported by some spectroscopic observations.     

Influence of filler type on the properties of foam concrete

Most of the investigations on foam concrete in the past have been confined to neat cement paste, cement paste with partial replacement with admixtures and to cement–sand mixes. This paper reports the results of a systematic study to ascertain the influence of filler type (i.e., sand and fly ash) and the particle size of sand on the properties of moist cured foam concrete. This study shows that the consistency of mixture, for achieving pre-formed foam concrete of design density, mainly depends on the filler type. The flow behaviour of foam concrete is mainly influenced by the foam volume. A reduction in particle size of sand caused an improvement in strength of foam concrete. For a given density, replacement of sand with fly ash resulted in higher strength. Finer filler resulted in a higher ratio of strength to density.     

Preparation and microwave dielectric properties of Bi2Ti4O11 ceramics

Single phase of Bi₂Ti₄O₁₁ ceramics, which belong to meta-stable phase compounds, were synthesized by controlling the reaction time through conventional solid-state method. The effects of annealing time on phase composition of Bi₂Ti₄O₁₁ ceramic powders and sintered ceramics were studied by XRD analysis. Second phase Bi₂Ti₂O₇ appeared when the annealing time shorter than 4 h. However, pure phase of Bi₂Ti₄O₁₁ powders can be formed by prolonging the annealing time to 6 h at 1,000 °C. The sintering temperatures on microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of Bi₂Ti₄O₁₁ ceramics were investigated. The results show that ceramics sintered at 1,075–1,175 °C are single phase of Bi₂Ti₄O₁₁ and present two different sizes of prismatic shape grains. Smaller size crystals grow into larger ones with increasing sintering temperature. The ceramics sintered at 1,125 °C reach a maximum density and have a microwave dielectric properties of ε_r = 51.2, Q × f = 3,050 GHz and τ_f = ?297 ppm/°C.     

Microwave dielectric properties of LaMgAl11O19

The suitable choice of a substrate material is one of the aims to be fulfilled in high speed microwave technology. LaMgAl₁₁O₁₉ oxide ceramic material, which belongs to the magnetoplumbite family, has been reported earlier as a potential candidate for such applications. This material has been prepared by conventional solid-state ceramic route. The structure has been studied by X-ray diffraction and characterized at microwave frequencies. The effect of dopant and glass addition on the microwave dielectric properties of this material has also been investigated. LaMgAl₁₁O₁₉ has relatively low dielectric constant (ε_r=14), low dielectric loss or high quality factor (Q_u×f>28,000 GHz at 7 GHz) and small temperature variation of resonant frequency (τ_f=−12 ppm/°C) at room temperature (300 K). These properties make LaMgAl₁₁O₁₉ as a good substrate material and as a dielectric resonator to be used in microwave devices operating at relatively high frequencies.     

Microstructures and mechanical properties of Ti3Al/Ni-based superalloy joints brazed with AuNi filler metal

For the purpose of high-temperature service and the weight reduction in aviation engineering applications, the dissimilar joining of Ti₃Al-based alloy to Ni-based superalloy (GH536) was conducted using Au-17.5Ni (wt%) brazing filler metal. The microstructure and chemical composition at the interfaces were investigated by scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. The diffusion behaviors of elements were analyzed as well. The results indicated that the Ti₃Al/GH536 joint microstructure was characterized by multiple layer structures. Element Ni from Au-Ni filler metal reacted with Ti₃Al base metal, leading to the formation of AlNi₂Ti and NiTi compounds. Element Ni from Ti₃Al base metal reacted with Ni and thus Ni₃Nb phase was detected in the joint central area. Due to the dissolution of Ni-based superalloy, (Ni,Au) solid solution ((Ni,Au)ss) and Ni-rich phase were visible adjacent to the superalloy side. The average tensile strength of all the joints brazed at 1253 K for 5–20 min was above 356 MPa at room-temperature. In particular, the joints brazed at 1253 K/15 min presented the maximum tensile strength of 434 MPa at room-temperature, and the strength of 314 MPa was maintained at 923 K. AlNi₂Ti compound resulted in the highest hardness area and the fracture of the samples subjected to the tensile test mainly occurred in this zone.
