新型奥氏体耐热钢C-HRA-5原位拉伸断裂机理

 断裂机理是材料力学性能研究的主要方向之一。为了阐明C-HRA-5钢单轴拉伸断裂机理,通过原位SEM观察拉伸全过程,对该耐热钢内部微裂纹萌生—扩展—断裂进行了深入分析。结果表明,C-HRA-5钢在室温和700 ℃下都表现出典型的韧性断裂特征。材料断裂主要受到M₂₃C₆相和MX相的影响,微裂纹由M₂₃C₆相聚集的三叉晶界处萌生。室温时,微裂纹与晶内MX相处裂纹相连,形成穿晶裂纹;高温时,微裂纹在剪应力的作用下形成局部穿晶裂纹,导致材料最终失效。     

Immunohistochemical and histochemical findings favoring the occurrence of autocrine/paracrine as well as nerve-related cholinergic effects in chronic painful patellar tendon tendinosis

The pathogenesis of the pain in patellar tendon tendinosis ("jumper's knee") is unclear. We have recently presented new information about the sensory nervous system in the human patellar tendon, but there is very little information regarding the possible occurrence of a cholinergic system in this tendon. In the present study, specimens of pain-free normal tendons and chronically painful tendinosis tendons were examined by different immunohistochemical and histochemical methods. Antibodies against the M(2) receptor, choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), and vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) were applied, and staining for demonstration of activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was also utilized. It was found that immunoreactions for the M(2) receptor could be detected intracellularly in both blood vessel cells and tenocytes, especially in tendinosis specimens. Furthermore, in the tendinosis specimens, some tenocytes were seen to exhibit immunoreaction for ChAT and VAChT. AChE reactions were seen in fine nerve fibers associated with small blood vessels in both the normal control tendons and the tendinosis tendons. The observations suggest that there is both a nerve related and a local cholinergic system in the human patellar tendon. As ChAT and VAChT immunoreactions were detected in tenocytes of tendinosis tendons, these cells might be a source of local acetylcholine (Ach) production. As both tenocytes and blood vessel cells were found to exhibit immunoreactions for the M(2) receptor, it is likely that both of these tissue cells may be influenced by ACh. Thus, in conclusion, there appears to be an upregulation of the cholinergic system, and an occurrence of autocrine/paracrine effects in this system, in the tendinosis patellar tendon.     

Tribological characteristics of bonded MoS2 films evaluated in rolling-sliding contact in a vacuum

Tribological characteristics of bonded MoS₂ films have been evaluated in air, nitrogen and vacuum using a two-roller type rolling-sliding friction apparatus. Two conventional space-proven films, polyamideimide-bonded and sodium silicate-bonded, designated as film A and film B respectively, were tested at a speed of 998 rev min^-1 under a load of 100 N at slip ratios of 1–100%, the slip ratio being defined as (V₁ - V₂)/ V₁ × 100%, in which V₁ and V₂ was rotational speed of each roller.

The wear life of the film A was more slip ratio dependent than that of the film B. The wear life of the film A tested in a vacuum was the longest at 10% slip ratio but it reduced significantly at 1%. On the contrary, the best durability of the film B was obtained at 100% slip ratio (pure sliding). The wear life of the film A shortened considerably in air and nitrogen.

In general, a solid lubricant film applied to spur gears is subjected to rolling-sliding friction of 0-10% slip ratios. To improve the endurance life of the film A at 1% slip ratio, films prepared by changing content of pigments (MoS₂ and Sb₂0₃) were evaluated. The films with a pigment content of 5-15% showed a marked improvement in wear life at a slip ratio of 1%, while maintaining excellent durability at 10%.

The wear process of an improved film was monitored using a gap sensor. It appears to be dominated by fatigue.     

Application of high-resolution scanning electron microscopy to biological macromolecules

The development of ultrahigh-resolution scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) has made the observation of biological macromolecules feasible, but adequate preparation methods have not yet been established. Although it has been possible to observe some molecules after they have been spread on a carbon substrate, this method has not proved suitable for other molecules which exhibit lower contrast, or are more susceptible to damage by the electron beam. In this study we have applied heavy-metal impregnation methods using phosphotungstic acid, uranyl acetate, or osmium tetroxide mordanted by tannic acid. In addition, contamination due to the electron beam was reduced by improving the vacuum in the specimen chamber, and by the use of a heated specimen stage. Using these measures, haemocyanin, ferritin, apoferritin, thyro-globulin and immunoglobulin M were successfully imaged. Ultrahigh-resolution SEM seems likely to become an important means for studying the morphology of biological macromolecules.

A low cost image and data acquisition system for use with the Vickers M85 scanning microdensitometer

A simple and inexpensive interface has been constructed between the Vickers M85 microdensitometer and a BBC model B microcomputer. The interface incorporates three sensitivity ranges and enables the production of pseudocolour images of the specimen using the two-dimensional scanning mode of the M85. The operator can select a 160times256 pixel image with eight colours or a 320times256 display using only four colours. Each colour represents a defined range of transmittance which is software controlled. The image histogram can be displayed and the interval between colours redefined so as to enable contrast stretching. Intervals between colours can be either linear or logarithmic and the images thus obtained can be stored on disc or videotape, or a hard copy can be obtained using a screen dump routine. Two-dimensional absorption images can thus be obtained at any single wavelength from 400 to 700 nm at normal magnifications of the light microscope. In addition, the system can be used to acquire, store and process data from one-dimensional scans to obtain quantitative information about variations in optical density within the specimen, so considerably increasing the usefulness of the instrument. Although obviously limited in its capabilities, the system produces images of very high quality and one-dimensional data of high sensitivity. The interface can be constructed for less than £40. A small modification to one of the M85 circuit boards is necessary to obtain maximum resolution.     

Low temperature embedding with Lowicryl resins: two new formulations and some applications

Lowicryl K4M and HM20 are methacrylate/acrylate based low temperature embedding resins for biological material which can be used in conjunction with either the progressive lowering of temperature (PLT) technique or with freeze-substitution. K4M and HM20 are applicable over a very extended temperature range, approximately 220 K to 340 K. With two new resins, K11M and HM23, one can reach even lower temperatures, c. 200 K. Freeze-substitution combined with low temperature embedding allows for very mild or no chemical fixation which seems to increase the sensitivity of immunocytochemical localization of antigens on sections.
