Abstract:Since the discovery of ordered mesoporous silica materials (MCM41) in 1992, mesoporous materials have become a hot spot in many research fields, such as catalysis, separation, adsorption, optics, electronics, etc. This paper reviews the synthesis, classification, formation mechanism, morphology control and application of mesoporous materials. Nowadays, various shaped mesostructured materials (spheres, rods, plates, spirals, ropes etc.) have been synthesized using the sol-gel, self-assembly, micro-emulsion, reverse micellar and sonochemical method etc. The mesoporous materials can be classified into silica-based and non-silica materials. Siliceous ordered mesoporous materials have been well investigated. On the other hand, less attention has been directed towards non-siliceous materials, although these could have more widespread applications. Several formation mechanisms have been proposed, including the liquid crystal templating (LCT) approach and the cooperative organization mechanism. We have prepared novel mesoporous TiO2 powders and thin films by the sonochemical and reversed mecellar methods. Their photocatalytic activity is significantly higher than those of ordinary TiO2 powders and thin films.

The high temperature strength was objected to the strength of tungsten skeleton. The thermo-shock resistance was subjected to the Cu-content and its well-distributed in material after melting-penetrating. And through the technologys improving, the burning erosive resistance and dimensional stability in the course of sintering had well been developed.

Its 5C rate charge efficiency is higher than 95%,and 5C rate discharge efficiency higher than 90%. It also performs well at various operating temperatures.

Abstract:Titanium and its alloys are recognized as biocompatible materials for use in medical devices. During the last few years a new generation of Ti alloys has been created with the aim of removing vanadium as an alloying element (e.g. in Ti-6Al-4V), the potential cytotoxic effect of which has been demonstrated in several investigations. The scope of the present work is to establish the corrosion behaviors of some new titanium alloys(Ti75 alloy, TiZr alloy)in 0.9% NaCl electrolyte and in particular under biological conditions. The results showed that the new alloys generally exhibit good electrochemical behaviors in rest potential (Er), corrosion potential (Ec) and passive current density (Ip). A remarkable difference is encountered with respect to the electrolyte RPMI alone induces a favorable Ec and an increased Ip, whereas the presence of cells decreases the Ip and the Ec with respect to 0.9% NaCl and RPMI. So RPMI with or without cells is a more relevant physical electrolyte than 0.9% NaCl. The new titanium alloys show by their electrochemical behavior some advantages as compared to Ti6Al4V.

Abstract:研究了不同热处理工艺对M963合金显微组织和拉伸性能的影响。结果表明，经1210℃，4h空冷固溶处理后，合金的强度升高，但塑性降低，尤其是在高温(900℃)时塑性降低幅度更大：固溶处理后再进行850℃，16h炉冷时效，强度进一步提高，高温塑性获得恢复，但室温塑性进一步降低。扫描电镜观察发现：合金在l210℃，4h空冷固溶处理过程中，初生MC碳化物发生转变，并在晶界和枝晶间析出M6C碳化物；在固溶处理后的空冷过程中，从γ溶体基体中析出细小γ相；经850℃，16h低温时效后，γ充分析出并长大。断口形貌分析表明不同热处理状态的合金，其断裂机制不同。根据位错与强化相之间的相互作用理论讨论了这种热处理工艺对室温和高温拉伸性能的不同影响规律。

Abstract:Titanium anodes were sol-gel coated with RuO2+SnO+TiO2 containing various amounts of SnO2 by brushing, sintering and annealing. The effect of SnO2 on the microstructure; morphology and particle size of the RuO2+TiO2+SnO2/Ti coatings was examined by XRD, DTA and TEM. It was concluded that the crystal size of the coatings, which was on the scale of nanometers, was sharply reduced with increasing SnO2 content. At same time, it was shown that the coatings, which consisted mainly of a solid solution- (Ru,Sn,Ti)O2 , would remain stable and monophase during increases of the SnO2 content and the annealing temperature. The morphology of the RuO2+TiO2+SnO2 crystals in the coating was equiaxial, due largely to the presence of the SnO2.

Abstract:A model was established for high strength aluminum alloys to describe the elastic/plastic stress and strain at the crack tip fields and the effects of second phase particles with various size scales on tensile ductility. The model presents a multi-element nonlinear relation between the fatigue crack growth rate and the characteristics of constituents, dispersoids, and precipitates within the alloys. Qualitative agreement between experimental and theoretical results is obtained for the fatigue crack growth rates of 2024 Al alloy. Moreover, an optimum scheme to reduce the fatigue crack growth rates and maintain alloy strength could be approached by application of the model.

Abstract:The effect of Al2O3 on the mechanical properties and microstructure of a Ti3SiC2/ Al2O3 composite fabricated by SPS(Spark Plasma Sintering)was studied in detail. The results show that the presence of the Al2O3 improves the hardness of the Ti3SiC2 up to 10.28 GPa. While at the same time increasing the strength and fracture toughness. On the other hand, slight decreases in flexural strength and fracture toughness were observed with Al2O3 additions higher than 10vol%, as a result of agglomeration of Al2O3 particles in the composite.

Abstract:The mechanical properties, especially the elongation of the powder metallurgy (PM) Ti alloy (Ti12LC, Ti8LC) at room temperature are less than optimal due to oxygen contamination and porosity. The results of this work show that the addition of the rare earth element Nd to the PM Ti alloy resulted in improved tensile strength and elongation. The alloy containing 0.8wt% Nd has a tensile strength of 1 080MPa and an elongation of 14%. Almost the same as those of wrought material, while the processing cost was lower. The rare earth element served to scavenge oxygen from the powder surfaces thereby purifying the particle interfaces. This together with a decrease of the oxygen content of Ti substrate plus the formation of Nd oxides resulted in mechanical properties of PM Ti alloy.

Abstract:Mg(OH)2 samples with acicular or fibrous crystallizing morphology were successfully prepared by one-step reaction method under hydrothermal conditions and indexed as a hexagonal crystal system based on the results of XRD and TEM. Moreover, based on the theoretical model of anionic coordination polyhedron growth units, the growth mechanism and growth habit of the Mg(OH)2 crystals under hydrothermal conditions were first investigated in depth. It was concluded, after calculating the stability energy of the growth unit of Mg(OH)2 crystalline, that the growth direction of the growth unit of the Mg(OH)2 crystal tends to favor a one-dimensional direction, parallel to the basic layer of the Mg(OH)2 crystal. Accordingly, we propose that natural brucite with fibred crystallizing morphology was formed under hydrothermal conditions in the earth thousands years ago.

Abstract:The effect of intermetallic compound TiAl additions on the combustion synthesis of Ti3AlC2 powder from Ti, Al and C as starting powders has been studied. The experimental results show that the main phase of the combustion product is TiC with very small amount of Ti3AlC2, if the molar ratio of Ti, Al, C is equal to 3:1:2. However, Ti3AlC2 become the main phase with a small amount of TiC if a small amount of TiAl is added to the starting mixtures without changing the overall stoichiometry. The fraction of Ti3AlC2 increases with increasing additions of TiAl to the starting mixtures. The above experimental phenomena were explained through thermodynamic and kinetic analysis.

Abstract:Two superconducting Nb-47wt%Ti composites with island shaped Ti5wt%Nb artificial pinning centers (APC) have been made. The Ti5wt%Nb volume fractions in the composites are 10% and 20% respectively. The bulk flux pinning force curves of the APC NbTi composites at 4.2K have been studied.

The behavior of the bulk flux pinning force curves of the Ti5wt%Nb APC NbTi composites is better than that of Nb APC NbTi composites, in that Fpmax occurs at a higher magnetic field.

Abstract:Based on boundary uncertainty theory, the service life of a powder metallurgy processed (PM) turbine disk has been analyzed. First, the general formulations are presented. The effects of the boundary uncertainty variables on PM disk life response are formulated mathematically by Taylor expansion based on the boundary uncertainty descriptions. In order to present the lifetime results (output), to a specified uncertainty a critical relative maximum deviation has been presented for the required bounds of the (input) variables. Using experimental data for the PW alloy FGH95, the boundary life of a FGH95 turbine disk has been derived. The two key bounded variables among all possible ones are chosen as an example, and the accepted jointed bounds for the two variables have been calculated to satisfy a specified fatigue life of more than 4 000 cycle number. The example shows the advantage of the boundary uncertainty than the classic probability method, and can be applied to a simple sample.

Abstract:A newly developed Ag5wt%C electrical contact material was fabricated using the technique of high-energy in conjunction with reductant liquid spraying chemical coating and powder metallurgy. Compared with its conventional counterparts made from traditional blending and extrusion, the new contact material has excellent physical and mechanical properties. Contact-erosion experiments were performed using an ASTM Contact Material Automatic Measuring Device. The experimental results indicated that the arc erosion resistance of the newly developed Ag5wt%C material was more than 40% higher than that of the conventionally blended counterpart. The microstructures of the AgC coating powder and the sintered-pressed sample were characterized by SEM and metallographic microscopy. The surface morphologies of the two types of Ag5wt%C contact after breaking arc melting were examined by SEM together with EDS. It was found that the melted Ag particles produced by arc thermal shock become spherical and adhered to the matrix, thereby decreasing the splattering loss of Ag. The wettability and interfacial strength between silver and graphite were much improved as a result of using the new technique. The newly developed AgC may substitute for those counterparts made from extrusion or blending as a new electrical contact material.
