In order to decrease the resistive losses in molten salt electrowinning cells, it is necessary to reduce the interelectrode
spacing. Under stationary conditions, this can only be achieved at the detriment of the current efficiency. However, by rotating
100-mm-diameter electrodes, it was found for plane disc electrodes that at a current density of 10,000 A m−2, a separation of 4 mm, and a rotation speed of 100 rpm, a current efficiency of 75.5 pct for the electrolysis of zinc from
a zinc chloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride electrolyte was achieved. This was 31 pct above that of the equivalent
stationary case. The use of conical electrodes which combined centrifugal and gravitational separation increased the current
efficiency to 85.7 pct at a rotation speed of 44 rpm. Increasing the scale of the electrodes to 200 mm in diameter resulted
in similar efficiencies. These results and a low temperature study using perspex discs and cones in water indicated that the
removal of the anode gas may be the rate-limiting step.

The activities in liquid Fe-V-0 and Fe-B-O alloys have been determined using the following galvanic cells Cr-Cr2O3(s) | ZrO2(CaO) | Fe-V-O (l, saturated with oxide) Cr-Cr2O3(s) | ThO2(Y2O3) | Fe-V-O (l, saturated with oxide) Cr-Cr2O3(s) | ZrO2(CaO) | Fe-B-O (l, B2O3 saturated with Al2O3) The solubility of oxygen in Fe-V alloys at 1600°C decreases with increasing vanadium content to a minimum of about 180 ppm
at 3 wt pct V, and then increases to over 4000 ppm at 36.3 wt pct V. Vanadium was found to decrease the activity coefficient
of oxygen and the value of the interaction coefficient eo
V at infinite dilution of vanadium is -0.14. The activity of vanadium was calculated from the measured electromotive force,
and log γv was found to be represented well by the quadratic formalism for Nv < 0.4: log γV = -0.70N

Fe -0.30 At 1550°C boron decreases the solubility of oxygen down to about 80 ppm at 0.67 wt pct B in Fe-B melts in equilibrium
with B2O3 saturated with A12O3 (NAl
2 O3 = 0.087). The boron deoxidation product, ’K′ = (wt pct B)2(wt pct 0)3 at infinite dilution of boron is 4.4 × 10-9 and 1.5 × 10-8 at 1550° and 1600°C, respectively. Boron decreases the activity coefficient of oxygen in liquid iron, and the value of the
interaction coefficient eo
B is -2.6 at infinite dilution of boron. The activity coefficient of boron at infinite dilution (γ°
B) is 0.083 at 1550°C relative to solid boron. 相似文献

The tensile properties of directionally solidified Al-4 wt pct Cu-0.15-0.2 wt pct Ti alloys with equiaxed grains were determined
and compared with the properties of directionally solidified Al-4 wt pct Cu columnar structures. The tensile properties of
the equiaxed structure were isotropic, but varied with the distance from the chill face. The mechanical properties of the
equiaxed structure were generally between those of the longitudinal and transverse columnar structures. The 0.2 pct offset
yield stress(σ
y, MPa) is represented as a function of the grain size,d (mm), the average concentration, Co (wt pct), and the local concentration, C (wt pct), by σy = [(15.7 + 22.6 Co) + (1.24 + 1.04 Co)d
-1/2] + [15.7 △C], where △C = C - Co. The equiaxed structure exhibits inverse segregation similar to that in the columnar structure. 相似文献

The rate of desulfurization of Fe-C-Si-S meltsin vacua (10 ώm pressure) has been investigated using 15 kg alloys melted by induction heating. For the sulfur contents from 0.008
to 0.1 pct investigated, the rate is a first-order type with respect to sulfur. Over this sulfur concentration range and in
the presence of carbon up to saturation and silicon from 0 to 5 pct, the sulfur activity is sufficiently high that the fractional
surface coverage by adsorbed sulfur is within 0.75 < θS < 1. The rate equation derived to satisfy the experimental findings for the limiting case of θS → 1 indicates that sulfur is evolved primarily via two activated reactions involving (SiS2)° and (S2)°. These complexes then produce SiS and S vapor species. At 1600°C the rates of formation of these volatile species are about
one fourth of those for free vaporization of SiS and sulfur, respectively. The apparent heats of activation are ∼47 kcal for
SiS and ∼37 kcal for sulfur vapor. Using an apparatus involving a Knudsen cell and the Bendix mass spectrometer, the enthalpy
of reaction SiS2(s) + Si(s) = 2SiS(v) has been measured, giving 102.2 kcal. Combining this with other thermodynamic data, the free energy of formation of SiS
vapor is evaluated as Si(s) + 1/2S2(v) = SiS(v) δF° = 15,500-19.5T from 1000° to 1686°K Si(l)+ 1/2S2(v)= SiS(v) δF°= 3500 -12.4T above 1686°K 相似文献

In this work four different microstructures were obtained by unidirectional solidification of Fe-Cr-C eutectic alloys. Conditions
for zone coupled growth were determined in alloys containing approximately 30 wt pct chromium. Furthermore, mechanical testing
indicated that the maximum strength was exhibited by Fe-30Cr-C alloys with cerium or titanium additions. These alloys had
the largest volume fraction of eutectic fibers and their ultimate tensile strength was of the order of 3250 MPa. Correlations
between the rate of crystal growth(u) and fiber spacing (λ) or tensile strength(Rm) were found and an expression of the typeRm = Aλ-b2 was obtained whereb
2 varied between 0.283 and 0.685. Finally, manganese or chromium (35 wt pct Cr) additions did not lead to appreciable improvements
in composite strength for this alloy system. 相似文献

A series of Ni-Nb-Al-Cr(γ/γ′- σ) alloys in the composition ranges Nb 19.3 to 23.2 wt pct, Al 2.5 to 5.2 wt pct and Cr 0 to 7.05 wt pct have been directionally
solidified under high thermal gradient (G) at both steady state and under conditions of abruptly or gradually changing growth
rate(ft). The critical ratio of G andR, (g/r)*, to achieve two-phase plane frontin- situ composite growth increases as chromium and niobium (Cb) concentration deviates from the trough or surface of two-fold saturation.
Interlamellar spacing of composites tend to decrease with increasing chromium content. Structures produced at steady state
growth in whichG/R < (G/R)* are consistent with previous work and can be related to the location of the alloy composition with respect to the line of
two-fold saturation. For alloys, which at lowG/R exhibited σ dendrites, any perturbation in growth velocity (atG/R > (G/R)*) precipitated a single phase σ (Ni3Nb) band. For alloys which at lowG/R exhibited γ dendrites a similar effect was achieved only when growth rate was reduced abruptly by more than an order of magnitude.
Interlamellar spacing of two alloys (approximately Ni-20 wt pct Nb-2.5 wt pct Al-6 wt pct Cr) was studied and for abrupt reductions
in growth rate in which bands were not produced, it was observed to decay slowly to the new steady state value over distances
which are inconsistent with the assumption of simple niobium diffusion control. A gradual increase in growth velocity for
one of these alloys resulted in extremely slow adjustment of interlamellar spacing occurring over a period greater than one
hour. An abrupt increase in growth velocity for all alloys caused immediate adjustment of interlamellar spacing to the new
steady state value.

The solubility of hydrogen was determined in the (Zr + 5 wt pct Nb)-H2, (Zr + 10 wt pct Nb)-H2, and (Zr + 20 wt pct Nb)-H2 systems as a function of composition, temperature (700° to 950°C) and hydrogen equilibrium pressure (0.5 to 760 mm Hg). The
position of boundariesβ - (β + δ) and(β + δ)-δ were determined in each of the above three systems. Niobium significantly reduces the solubility of hydrogen in theβ andδ phases and increases the equilibrium hydrogen pressure for any fixed concentration. The equilibrium pressure-temperature
relations in the two phase region (β + δ) were derived and the heat of formation ofδ-hydride from saturatedβ-Zr, ΔH
β → δ, were determined. The value of ΔH
β → δ increases up to about 5 wt pct Nb after which the effect of niobium seems to be insignificant. The maximum hydrogen pick-up
of zirconium at room temperature decreases with increasing niobium content of the alloy. 相似文献

A new method to determine directly the solid fraction using the cooling curve was proposed for solidification of undercooled
melts. Then, to construct three different baselines, a sudden function ξ
α
(x) is introduced. In terms of the ξ
α
(x) function, accordingly, the solid fractions during solidification of Ni-3.3 wt pct B, Al-7 wt pct Si, Al-14 wt pct Cu, and
Fe-4.56 wt pct Ni alloys were predicted. The predictions of the primary, the regular lamellar eutectic, the anomalous eutectic,
and the peritectic phases from cooling curves of the solidified samples coincide with the results of measurement or the available

The deformation behavior of bcc (β) Ti-V single crystals containing the athermal ω phase was studied using tensile tests,
optical and electron microscopy and X-ray and electron diffraction. The stress-strain curves were characterized by a marked
yield point and an essentially zero work hardening rate. The deformation structures consisted of wavy slip and stress-induced
plates. Both X-ray and electron diffraction showed that the stress-induced plates consist of one variant of the omega phase,
with the orientation relation to the parent? phase close to (0001)ω ‖(001)ω; (•1120)ω ‖(110)β. The habit plane was of the type 554. A small amount of ά (hcp) phase was
present within the ω plate, with orientation relation to the β phase close to the Burgers relationshipi.e. (0001)ά, ‖(110)β; [•1120]ά ‖[•111]β. It is suggested that the ω phase may be an intermediate structure in the stress-induced bcc → hep transformation.

The electrochemical nature of the reaction between iron oxide in calcia-silica-alumina slag and carbon in liquid iron has
been studied by measuring the kinetics of the slag-metal reaction. A base slag (48 pct CaO-40 pct SiO2-12 pct Al2O3) containing iron oxide (≤8 wt pct FeO
t
) was reduced by an Fe-C metal bath (∼4 wt pct C) at 1400 °C. The reaction rate was calculated from measurements of the total
inlet gas flow rate and the CO concentration in the outlet gas stream. The slag was “internally short circuited” by dipping
an iron plate through the slag layer, and this resulted in an increase in the rate of CO evolution. An external circuit was
produced by dipping a graphite rod (shielded from the slag) into the metal bath and a steel or molybdenum rod into the slag
layer; the open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current were measured when iron oxide was added to the base slag layer.
The reaction rate was enhanced by applying a voltage across the slag layer, and an electric arc cathode was employed in some
of these “electrolysis” experiments. 相似文献

The rate of formation of intermetallic compounds between aluminum and three ferritic steels, one austenitic steel, and Inconel
has been determined by an electrolytic method. The steel was held at zero potential with respect to aluminum in a NaCl-AlCl3 melt, and the current measured. Comparison of measured thicknesses of intermetallic layers with those calculated from the
integrated current gives an average deposition efficiency of 95 pct. For the Type 304 austenitic steel thickness
(min), andk is given by logk= −6400/T(0K) +4.469. The ferritic steels show a linear rate of growth of Al5Fe2, with an initial higher rate such that extrapolation of the linear curve back to zero time gives an intercept of 16±7 μm.
The rate constants (mm min−1) may be represented by log (rate)=α/T+β, and the values of α and β are respectively −2650 and−0.788 for a plain carbon steel,−6580 and + 3.469 for a 1.3 pct Cr,
0.4 pct Mo steel, and−5950 and +2.466 for a 2.2 pct Cr, 0.9 pct Mo steel. The more highly alloyed steels are thus attacked,
more slowly. Results for Inconel could not be fitted to any simple equation. With the ferritic steels growth is by aluminum
diffusing inwards; with Inconel it is by nickel diffusing outward. 相似文献

The vapor pressure of sulfur over Ni-S melts of various compositions was calculated from the equilibrium weight of the melt
in gas streams of known H2S-H2 composition. The Gibbs-Duhem equation was used to calculate the activity of nickel and other thermodynamic properties. For
the reaction: 3Ni(S) + S2(g) ⇌ Ni3S2(l) the suggested free energy rslationship is: ΔG° = -57,910 + 15.89T (800° to 1100°C). The Calculations were extrapolated to predict that for the reaction: Ni(s) + 1/2S2(g) ⇌ NiS(l), ΔG° = -26.730 + 10.5T (1000° to 1100°C) 相似文献

The effects of surface roughness on the low-cycle fatigue life of Type 304 stainless steel at 593°C in air have been investigated.
It is observed that, at a strain rate of 4 × 10−3 s−1 and a total strain range of 1 pct, the fatigue life (N
f cycles) decreases with an increase in surface roughness. Information on crack growthvs strain cycles has been generated, as a function of surface roughness, by the measurement of striation spacing on fractured
surfaces of specimens tested to failure. Crack propagation follows the Ina ∞N (wherea is the crack length afterN strain cycles) relation for longer specimen fatigue lives (Nf > 2700 cycles) and departs from Ina ∞N for shorter fatigue lives. A quantitative estimate is made of the number of cycles No(r) to generate a crack length equal to 0.1 mm (≈ 1 grain diam). The initial surface roughness significantly affects only the
initiation component of specimen life time. The effect of roughness on crack initiation is described byN

The high-temperature corrosion behavior of monolithic Fe-Al alloys, with 0 to 20 wt pct Al, was investigated at 700 °C in
a reducing atmosphere (p(S2) = 10−4 atm, p(O2) = 10−25 atm) for up to 100 hours. Postexposure characterization of the corrosion reaction products consisted of surface and cross-sectional
microscopy, in combination with energy dispersive spectroscopy, electron probe microanalysis, and quantitative image analysis.
From the kinetic data, three stages of corrosion behavior (i.e., inhibition, breakdown, and steady state) were found with the observance and/or duration of each stage directly related to
the aluminum content of the alloy. The first stage, labeled the inhibition stage, was characterized by low weight gains and
the absence of rapid degradation of the alloy. Typically observed for compositions with 10 to 20 wt pct Al, protection was
afforded due to the development of a thin, continuous alumina scale. For alloys with 7.5 wt pct A1, the ability to maintain
the initially formed alumina scale was not observed, resulting in the breakdown stage. Localized corrosion product nodules,
containing iron sulfide (Fe1-x
S) and the spinel-type tau phase (FeAl2S4), developed through the alumina scale due to sulfur short-circuit diffusion. These growths were accompanied by relatively
high corrosion rates. Further decreasing the aluminum content to 5 wt pct and below lead to the formation of a continuous
sulfide scale whose growth was controlled by iron and sulfur diffusion through the previously formed product. The alloy wastage
rates in the steady-state stage were relatively high when compared to the previous two regions. 相似文献

Diffusion of cobalt,chromium, and titanium in Ni3Al 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Diffusion studies of cobalt, chromium, and titanium in Ni3Al (γ′) at temperatures between 1298 and 1573 K have been performed using diffusion couples of (Ni-24.2 at. pct Al/Ni-24.4
at. pct Al-2.91 at. pct Co), (Ni-24.2 at. pct Al/Ni-23.1 at. pct Al-2.84 at. pct Cr), and (Ni-24.2 at. pct Al/Ni-20.9 at.
pct Al-3.17 at. pct Ti). The diffusion profiles were measured by an electron probe microanalyzer, and the diffusion coefficients
of cobalt, chromium, and tita-nium in γ′ containing 24.2 at. pct Al were determined from those diffusion profiles by Hall’s
method. The temperature dependencies of their diffusion coefficients (m[su2]/s) are as follows: ~D(Co)
= (4.2 ± 1.2) × 1O-3exp {-325 ± 4 (kJ/mol)/RT} ~D(Cr) = (1.1 ± 0.3) × 10-1 exp {-366 ± 3 (kJ/mol)/RT} and D(Ti)
= (5.6 ± 3.1) × 101 exp {-468 ± 6 (kJ/mol)/RT} The values of activation energy increase in this order: cobalt, chromium, and titanium. These
activation energies are closely related to the substitution behavior of cobalt, chromium, and titanium atoms in the Ll2 lattice sites of γ′; the cobalt atoms occupying the face-centered sites in the Ll2 structure diffuse with the normal activation energy, whereas the titanium atoms oc-cupying the cubic corner sites diffuse
with a larger activation energy that includes the energy due to local disordering caused by the atomic jumps. The chromium
atoms which can occupy both sites diffuse with an activation energy similar to that of cobalt atoms. 相似文献

The deleterious effects of Fe-bearing constituent particles on the fracture toughness of wrought A1 alloys have been known.
Recent studies have shown that the presence of Fe-bearing, constituent particles is also determental to the nature and growth
of the hard anodic oxide coating formed on such materials. The present study, using a combination of scanning electron microscopy
(SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), was made to examine the influence
of the nature of the Fe-bearing particles on the hard anodizing behavior of AA 7075 extrusion products containing varying
amounts of Si, Mn, and Fe impurities. It was found that, in the alloy containing 0.25 wt pct Si, 0.27 wt pct Mn, and 0.25
wt pct Fe, the Fe-bearing constituent particles are based on the Al12(FeMn)3Si phase (bcc with α=1.260 nm). These particles survive the hard anodizing treatment, add resistance to the electrical path,
causing a rapid rise in the bath voltage with time, and cause a nonuniform growth of the anodic oxide film. In the materials
containing 0.05 wt pct Si, 0.04 wt pct Mn, and 0.18 wt pct Fe, on the other hand, the formation of the Al12(FeMn)3Si-based phase is suppressed, and two different Fe-bearing phases, based on Al−Fe−Cu−Mn-based (simple cubic with a=1.265 nm) and Al7Cu2Fe, respectively form. Neither the Al−Fe−Cu−Mn-based phase nor the Al7Cu2Fe-based phase survive the hard anodizing treatment, and this results in a steady rise in the bath voltage with time and a
relatively uniform growth of the anodic oxide film. Consideration of the size of the Fe-bearing, particles reveals that the
smaller the particle, the more uniform the growth of the anodic oxide film. 相似文献

The stability of the protective oxide layer formed on Fe-12.5 pct Cr, Fe-18 pct Cr-10 pct Ni, and Fe-25 pct Cr-20 pct Ni was
investigated in a flowing nonequilibrium H2-H2O-CH4-CO mixture at 950 °C. The samples were preoxidized in H2-H2O, and subsequently
the carbon activity was raised in stepwise manner by adding methane. CO formation occurred on the sample surface by the catalytic
reaction CH4 + H2O → CO + 3H2. The conversion of oxide to carbide commenced at the end of the sample wherePco has its highest andPH2O its lowest value. Oxidation, conversion, and catalytic reaction were monitored by gravimetric measurements and CO-determination
during the experiments. Partial equilibria can be calculated for (ac)1 =K

4/(Ph2)2, (ac)2 =K2(PcoPh2)ph{2o}and(Po2)1\2 = K3Ph2o/Ph2. The conversion of oxide to carbide started when the steady state ofac and(Po2)1/2 on the surface approached the value for the equilibrium of chromium oxide and chromium carbide. The results show that this
steady state value is much nearer to the point(ac)2-(Po2)1/2 in the thermochemical stability diagram than to the point (ac)1 — (Po
2)1/2- The oxide layers were stable even at very high values of (ac)1 which demonstrates that there is only very little interaction of CH4 with the oxide surface.

A rapidly solidified and thermomechanically processed fine-grained eutectic NiAl−Cr alloy of the composition Ni33Al33Cr34 (at, pct) exhibits structural superplasticity in the temperature regime from 900°C to 1000°C at strain rates ranging from
10−5 to 10−3 s−1. The material consists of a B2-ordered intermetallic NiAl(Cr) solid solution matrix containing a fine dispersion of bcc chromium.
A high strain-rate-sensitivity exponent of m=0.55 was achieved in strain-rate-change tests at strain rates of about 10−4 s−1. Maximum uniform elongations up to 350 pct engineering strain were recorded in superplastic strain to failure tests. Activation
energy analysis of superplastic flow was performed in order to establish the diffusion-controlled dislocation accommodation
process of grain boundary sliding. An activation energy of Q
c=288±15 kJ/mole was determined. This value is comparable with the activation energy of 290 kJ/mole for lattice diffusion of
nickel and for 63Ni tracer selfdiffusion in B2-ordered NiAl. The principal deformation mechanism of superplastic flow in this material is grain-boundary
sliding accommodated by dislocation climb controlled by lattice diffusion, which is typical for class II solid-solution alloys.
Failure in superplastically strained tensile samples of the fine-grained eutectic alloy occurred by cavitation formations
along NiAl‖‖Cr interfaces. 相似文献
