Effect of a marker material on the oxidation of nickel in sulfur dioxide

A marker study of nickel oxidation in SO₂ at 600°C has proved that after the reaction metallic markers (Au, Pt, W) are covered with a sulfide rim. This effect is not observed on quartz markers. The metallic markers make the intermediate NiO layer adjacent to them increase, whereas the quartz marker makes this layer disappear.     

Effects of SO2 and SO3 on the Na2SO4 induced corrosion of nickel

The effects of SO₂ and SO₃ in the environment on the hot corrosion behavior of Ni in the temperature range 750–950°C has been studied. Below the melting point of Na₂SO₄ (884°C), rapid corrosion takes place by formation of a Na₂SO₄-NiSO₄ melt, which can penetrate the porous oxide scale and give rise to sulfide information by coming in contact with the metal. The distribution of the sulfides depends on the SO₂ level in the ambient gas. Continued corrosion occurs by a sulfidation-oxidation mechanism. At temperatures above the melting point of Na₂SO₄, accelerated degradation occurs via dissolution of the surface scale, followed by reprecipitation of the oxide in a nonprotective form.Deceased     

Solid-solution hardening and softening by Fe additions to NiAl

Solid-solution hardening in the case of a ternary alloy addition to a B2 compound with the triple defect structure has been investigated. The fact that the ternary element may occupy either of two sublattices or may affect the concentration of other types of point defects present in the material makes this a very interesting problem to consider. Ni-rich (40 at% Al), stoichiometric (50 at% Al), and Al-rich (52 at% Al) alloys were doped with up to 12 at% Fe. Lattice parameter, bulk density and hardness measurements were performed on samples quenched from 1000 °C. It was found that solid-solution softening actually occurs in the Ni-rich alloys, while hardening was observed in the stoichiometric and Al-rich alloys. The vacancy concentration was determined from the experimental data, and the site occupancies of the Fe atoms were estimated from a thermodynamic model. Through careful consideration of all point defect concentrations the solid-solution hardening and softening behaviors could be effectively rationalized.

Defect structure and chemical diffusion in nickel sulfide β-Ni3S2

The chemical composition, defect structure, and diffusion in nickel sulfide -Ni₃S₂ have been investigated in H₂S-H₂ mixtures containing between 1 and 65% H₂S between 560 and 700°C. Gravimetric, density, and X-ray studies were carried out. In the thermodynamically stable compound the ratio of Ni/S varied between 1.3 and 1.75. The X-ray examination showed a step change in the lattice parameter at the Ni/S ratio 1.4. A linear dependence of the density values (between 5.5 and 6.2 g/cm³) on the composition was observed. On the basis of the chemical composition and density measurements the number of nickel and sulfur atoms in 1 cm³ were determined. It has been shown that the Ni₃S₂ phase is defected in both anion and cation sublattices and that its chemical formula may be described as follows: Ni_3±yS_2x, where y 2x. It has been found that in the mixture containing 10% H₂S the process of defect formation is determined by their diffusion in the sulfide. The temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficient is described by the equation D = 13.15 exp(-30,000/RT) cm²/sec. No dependence of D on the sulfur partial pressure was observed, but this may be due to the relatively large uncertainties in the measurement of the diffusion coefficients.

Effect of MoS2 morphology on the HDS activity of hydrotreating catalysts

We have applied near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) to characterize the surface and bulk properties of Li_xNi_1–xO catalysts. In our experimental set-up, NEXAFS spectra of powder materials could be obtained by measuring the intensity of either electron-yield or fluorescence-yield. While the electron-yield method is sensitive only to the top few atomic layers, the fluorescence-yield method can detect species up to a few thousands angstroms deep into the bulk structure. The ability to distinguish surface and bulk compositions is demonstrated in studies of a number of Li_0.5Ni_0.5O samples, of which the surface compositions vary as a function of preparation procedures. In addition, NEXAFS investigations following the reaction of Li_xNi_1–xO with CH₄ have also been carried out and the results indicate that the initial surface reaction intermediates are Li₂CO₃.     

Machinability of a nickel aluminide intermetallic alloy

This article reports the results of an experimental study on the machinability of a nickel aluminide intermetallic alloy. Machining was conducted at various speeds, and results indicate low material removal rates. Chips collected for each test run were measured for thickness for shear angle calculation and were subsequently observed microscopically. Chip segmentation was observed microscopically, and a fluctuation in the shear angle was evidenced. A parameter characterizing the severity of the machining process, the chip reduction coefficient (K), was calculated from chip thickness measurements. The calculated values ofK were found to be low, indicating a low severity of the metalcutting process. This, however, is in contract with the observed low rates of metal removal and low tool life. Thus, conventional metalcutting characterization parameters require re- examination in terms of machining high-strength materials.     

镍渣掺量对硅酸盐水泥物理力学性质的影响

以水淬镍渣为原料,经机械球磨、筛分、陈化等工艺对镍渣进行预处理;将预处理后的镍渣加入到硅酸盐水泥熟料中,经二次球磨后制备镍渣水泥,研究了镍渣的掺量对水泥基本性能的影响.结果表明:镍渣掺量对水硅酸盐水泥的物理力学性能有重要影响.当将预处理后的镍渣以0％～20％等量取代水泥熟料时,水泥的标准稠度用水量下降,凝结时间增长,体积安定性良好,强度有所降低,但主要指标均满足水泥基本性能的要求.当镍渣掺量为20％时,制备的水泥胶砂试块3d和28 d抗压强度分别为23.6 MPa和40.2 MPa,抗折强度分别为5.2 MPa和8.6 MPa.
