Er2Ti2O7烧绿石基玻璃陶瓷固化体的制备工艺研究

为获得含单一钛酸盐烧绿石的玻璃陶瓷固化体,本文以Er₂Ti₂O₇作为钛酸盐烧绿石代表,在传统的烧结法制备工艺基础上,通过热雾喷解和晶核掺入的技术改进,分别研究了烧结温度、烧结时间、玻璃与陶瓷晶核质量配比等参数对Er₂Ti₂O₇基玻璃陶瓷固化体物相及结构的影响规律。XRD结果表明：在不同的烧结温度、烧结时间和质量配比下,均能获得含单一Er₂Ti₂O₇烧绿石的玻璃陶瓷固化体,Er₂Ti₂O₇前驱体在玻璃中的相稳定性好,未发生相分解,玻璃组分亦未受陶瓷相的影响而析出第二相;玻璃组分对陶瓷颗粒存在张应力作用,玻璃含量越高,Er₂Ti₂O₇的晶胞常数越大;提高烧结温度和烧结时间均有利于增强固化体中Er₂Ti₂O₇的结构有序性,但烧结温度效果强于烧结时间。SEM结果表明：Er₂Ti₂O₇在玻璃基体上呈四方形生长,与玻璃界面清晰,相容性好。固化体的物性测试结果表明,玻璃组分占比将直接影响固化体的表观孔隙率和致密度。根据以上结果可知,新工艺制备的样品具有相纯度高、烧绿石相与玻璃相容性好、两相比例可调等优点,较好地解决了钛酸盐烧绿石在玻璃基体中易发生相分解的问题。     

PET/PE原位微纤化共混物的非等温结晶

通过挤出、热拉伸及淬冷制备了聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)/聚乙烯(PE)原位微纤化共混物。采用差示扫描量热仪(DSC)研究了PET/PE原位微纤化共混物的非等这结晶特性,为了比较,同时考察了纯PE和PET/PE通常共混物的结晶特性。结果表明,PET微纤对PE有良好结晶异相成核作用,可提高结晶温度、缩短结晶时间、增大结晶速率,但使PE的结晶度和熔点降低;增加降温速率,结晶峰变宽且向低温方向移动。     

微量固溶Nb在钢中的作用

A New Approach to Supertough Poly(lactic acid): A High Temperature Reactive Blending

A novel approach to PLA toughening is proposed in this study. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is toughened using poly(ethylene‐n‐butylene‐acrylate‐co‐glycydyl methacrylate) (EBA‐GMA) as a reactive compatibilizer with the aid of an epoxy‐based chain extender. It is found that the toughening effect of EBA‐GMA in the binary blend investigated is strongly influenced by blending temperature. Blending at high temperatures which are non‐typical for PLA processing (over 250 °C) allows toughness to be increased by an order of magnitude when compared to the toughness of blends prepared at low temperatures (below 200 °C). This effect is attributed to a combination of factors, namely an increasing rate of reactive bonding between PLA and EBA‐GMA at elevated temperatures and enhanced interfacial adhesion between PLA and EBA‐GMA phases. DSC studies show that PLA/EBA‐GMA bonding on the interface acts as an efficient nucleator for PLA. The nucleation ability of the PLA/EBA‐GMA interface strongly depends on blend processing temperature and gradually increases with increasing blending temperature. The PLA/EBA‐GMA interface shows its highest nucleation ability at 250 °C.

     

Membrane assisted cooling crystallization: Process model,nucleation, metastable zone,and crystal size distribution

The membrane assisted cooling crystallization was proposed and investigated by the simulation and experiments. The developed process model concerned the supersaturation evolution on the membrane interface, the combined nucleation rate in the crystallizer. The impact of different membrane on reducing the nucleation barrier was investigated by introducing the metastable zone width theory. The influence of membrane distillation conditions on the crystal nucleation and growth kinetic was uncovered based on the simulation and experiments results. The experimental results indicated that membrane assisted cooling mode with optimized profiles did improve the crystal size distribution and crystal habit comparing with conventional cooling mode. Terminal coefficient of variation decreased from 55.4 to 33.9 under similar mean crystal growth rate, 2.27 × 10^?7 m s^?1 (conventional cooling) and 1.98 × 10^?7 m s^?1 (membrane assisted cooling). Finally, the brief summary on the advantages and key issues of this propose membrane assisted crystallization operation were concluded. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 829–841, 2016     

Crystallization of calcium sulphate hemihydrate in concentrated phosphoric acid solutions

We aim to show the existence of agglomeration by measuring and modelling secondary nucleation and crystal growth rates of calcium sulphate hemihydrate, CaSO₄-0.5 H₂O, in concentrated phosphoric acid solutions. Using a batch crystallizer we measured the evolution of the population density as a function of supersaturation, H₂SO₄ excess and stirring rates. All experiments were carried out at 90 °C in solutions at 40 wt.% of P₂O₅, simulating the usual conditions for crystallizing hemihydrate in the industrial processes of phosphoric acid production. Nucleation and growth rates were calculated from the population number densities, using the moments analysis method. A model is presented for describing the crystallization process of hemihydrate. It is shown that secondary nucleation and growth rates are quadratic functions of supersaturation. H₂SO₄ concentrations affect supersaturation but at the same supersaturation the growth rates are not significantly different. Nucleation is independent of the stirring rate, whereas growth rates are slightly affected for stirring rates up to 500 rpm. Taking agglomeration into account, the moments method fits very well the experimental data.     

Crystallization of Li2O · Al2O3· 6SiO2 Glasses Containing Niobium Pentoxide as Nucleating Dopant

Niobium pentoxide (T form, orthorhombic system) was utilized to promote devitrification in Li₂O · Al₂O₃· 6SiO₂ glasses. Two or more mole percentage of this nucleating dopant enhanced crystallization in these glasses. Glasses containing 4.0 and 8.0 mol% T-Nb₂O₅ exhibited a high tendency to form dispersed TT-Nb₂O₅ (monoclinic system) precipitates during the glass quenching process. The crystallization process in glasses containing 2.0 or 4.0 mol% T-Nb₂O₅ occurred as microphase separation, followed by the formation of dispersed TT-Nb₂O₅ crystalline precipitates (760°C), followed by β-quartz solid-solution ( ss ) formation (850° to 900°C) heterogeneously nucleated from the precipitates. β-quartz( ss ) transformed to β-spodumene( ss ), along with a polymorphic transition from the TT-Nb₂O₅ to M-Nb₂O₅ (tetragonal system) crystalline phase.     

Influence of thiourea on the nucleation of copper on polycrystalline platinum

The influence of thiourea on the nucleation of copper from a 0.30 M CuSO4-1 M H2SO4 solution on polycrystalline platinum electrodes covered by a copper adlayer was investigated. In the case of diffusion controlled nucleation and growth the conditioning potential, that is, the potential of the electrode prior to the application of a large negative potential step, has a strong influence on the nucleation transients. This can result in either a promotion or an inhibition of the nucleation (which is characterized by a change in the nucleation rate constant and/or the site density) depending on the applied potential and the concentration of thiourea. In the region of mixed kinetics and for a fixed value of the conditioning potential (0.175 V vs Cu2+|Cu, that is, in the region of strongest inhibition), a new and rather unexpected effect was observed. Thus, after an induction period, which is proportional to the concentration of thiourea, the current increases sharply to a much higher value, but after reaching a maximum drops again to its original value. At present there is no ready explanation for this phenomenon, which has been called 'nucleation outbursts', but it deserves more investigation because the linearity between the induction time and the concentration of thiourea might have practical applications.
