Preparation,structure, and electric properties of the Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3–Pb(Yb1/2Nb1/2)O3–PbTiO3 ternary ferroelectric system ceramics near the morphotropic phase boundary

Ceramics of the xPb(Zn_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃–(1 ? x ? y)Pb(Yb_1/2Nb_1/2)O₃–yPbTiO₃ (PZN–PYN–PT) ternary system were synthesized using a modified two-step columbite precursor method which can effectively suppress the pyrochlore phase. A morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region, separating tetragonal and rhombohedral phases in the ternary systems has been determined. The electric properties of the compositions near MPB region were investigated. Dielectric response exhibits relaxor-like characteristics with broad dielectric peaks and dispersive dielectric behavior with respect to frequency and temperature. The phase diagram of the 0.45PZN–(0.55 ? y)PYN–yPT pseudo-binary system in the composition range of 0.15 < y < 0.35 was established based on dielectric measurements. The optimal properties were achieved in the MPB composition of 0.52PZN–0.21PYN–0.27PT with piezoelectric coefficient d₃₃, dielectric permittivity ε′, planar electromechanical coupling k_p, dielectric loss tan δ, coercive field E_c, remnant polarization P_r, and T_C being of 558 pC/N, 2065, 62%, 0.2%, 19.88 kV/cm, 31.44 μC/cm² and 259.5 °C, respectively, showing potential usage in high-temperature electromechanical applications.

A new Pb(Lu1/2Nb1/2)O3–PbZrO3–PbTiO3 ternary solid solution with morphotropic region and high Curie temperature

A ceramic ternary system of (1?x?y)Pb(Lu_1/2Nb_1/2)O₃–xPbZrO₃–yPbTiO₃ (PLuN–PZ–PT) has been prepared by two-step synthetic process and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and electric measurements. A morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region has been delimited in the ternary system at room temperature. With the PLuN content increasing, the morphotropic phase boundary region becomes broad as well as the dielectric peak. The best comprehensive piezoelectric properties were achieved at MPB composition 0.42PLuN–0.1PZ–0.48PT, with the piezoelectric coefficients d₃₃, the Curie temperature T_c, the planar electromechanical coupling factor K_p, and the remnant polarizations P_r being 367 pC/N, 360 °С, 68% and 35 μС/cm², respectively. The results indicate that the PLuN–PZ–PT ternary ferroelectric material may be a promising candidate for high-power electromechanical transducers that can operate in a large temperature range.     

Lipids in infant formulas: Current and future innovations

Lipids in infant formulas are designed to mimic the composition of human milk and/or approximate the performance of the breastfed infant. Human milk lipids exhibit a complex, highly variable nature, varying by population, dietary intake, time of day, length of feeding and others. Continued understanding and characterization of human milk lipids has led to infant formula innovations aimed at a better comparison to human milk and/or improved dietary lipid utilization in the formula‐fed infant. The underlying aim of such innovation is the generation of outcomes as comparable to human milk feeding as possible. The present paper briefly reviews the current understanding of human milk lipid composition, with a focus on how this knowledge drives current and future innovations in the area of infant formula lipids.

Colorless polyimides from 2,3,3′,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (α-BPDA) and various aromatic bis(ether amine)s bearing pendent trifluoromethyl groups

A series of organosoluble and light-colored polyimides (III) was prepared from 2,3,3′,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (α-BPDA) with various fluorinated aromatic bis(ether amine)s via two-step method with thermal or chemical imidization of poly(amic acid)s yielded polyimides. The III series had inherent viscosity of 0.74-1.01 dl/g and showed excellent solubility in a variety of organic solvents. They were soluble in the amide polar solvent, ether-type solvent, and chlorinated solvent. These polyimide films also showed a high optical transparency and less color intensity, with an ultraviolet-visible absorption edge of 369-382 nm and low b^* values (a yellowness index) of 5.0-11.7. Glass-transition temperature of the III series was recorded at 244-319 °C and higher than the isomeric polyimides V series. Compared with the nonfluorinated polyimides IV, the III series showed lighter-colored and lower dielectric constants and moisture absorptions. The good tensile properties and excellent thermal properties of the III series were also observed.
