Synthesis and characterization of (Zn,Cd)TiO3 by a modified sol-gel method

Ilmenite-type (Zn1-xCdx)TiO3 (0 <= x <= 0.15 and 0.8 <= x <= 1.0) was synthesized by a modified sol-gel route including the Pechini process via two-step heat treatments. The thermal stability of (Zn1-xCdx)TiO3 depended on the amount of cadmium content. The as-synthesized (Zn1-xCdx)TiO3 (0 <= x <= 0.15 and 0.8 <= x <= 1.0) showed higher thermal stability than that of ZnTiO3. The variation of the dielectric constant of all synthesized (Zn1-xCdx)TiO3 samples for all measurement frequencies showed a similar tendency.

Novel channel structures based on [M(bpdo)(3)](2+) and p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene nanocapsules have been established; these are sustained exclusively by charge-assisted pi...pi interactions and sorption experiments show the porous materials have selective guest sorption properties.

Effect of diffusion barrier on the high-temperature oxidation behavior of thermal barrier coatings

A selective oxidation technique has been applied to form a diffusion barrier on the Ni-based superalloy substrate by heating the substrate with electron beam of the electron beam-physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) facility. The interdiffusion behavior, cross-sectional morphology, isothermal and cyclic oxidations were studied for thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with and without diffusion barrier.

Exfoliation of Organically Modified Montmorillonite Driven by Molecular Diffusion in Maleated Polypropylene

This work is focused on the factors influencing the intercalation of maleated polypropylene (PPMA) into organically modified montmorillonite (OMMT). Two kinds of PPMA were used to explore the optimal candidate for effective intercalation into OMMT. The grafting degree of maleic anhydride and the viscosity of PPMA have effects on the diffusion of polymer molecules. Moreover, the loading level of surfactant was varied to optimize the modification of montmorillonite because the appropriate loading level can provide a balance between interlayer distance and steric hindrance. The kind of surfactant changes the interaction between OMMT and PPMA, and accordingly the intercalation of PPMA is different, resulting in the discrepancy of the intercalation of PPMA.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of cast Mg-Zn-Al-RE alloys

The microstructures and mechanical properties of cast Mg-Zn-Al-RE alloys with 4 wt.% RE and variable Zn and At contents were investigated. The results show that the alloys mainly consist of alpha-Mg, Al2REZn2, Al4RE and tau-Mg-32(Al,Zn)(49) phases. and a little amount of the beta-Mg17Al12 phase will also be formed with certain Zn and At contents. When increasing the Zn or At content, the distribution of the Al2REZn2 and Al4RE phases will be changed from cluster to dispersed, and the content of tau-Mg-32(Al,Zn)(49) phase increased gradually. The distribution of the Al2REZn2 and Al4RE phases, and the content of beta- or tau-phase are critical to the mechanical properties of Mg-Zn-Al-RE alloys.

Theoretical studies on the reaction mechanism of oxidation of primary alcohols by Zn/Cu(II)-phenoxyl radical catalyst

The catalytic mechanism for the oxidation of primary alcohols catalyzed by the two functional models of galactose oxidase (GOase), M-II L (M = Cu, Zn; L = N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)1-2-diiminoquinone)), has been studied by use of the density functional method B3LYP The catalytic cycle of Cu- and Zn-catalysts consists of two parts, namely, substrate oxidation (primary alcohol oxidation) and O-2 reduction (catalyst regeneration). The catalytic mechanisms have been studied for the two reaction pathways (route 1 and route 2). The calculations indicate that the hydrogen atom transfer within the substrate oxidation part is the rate-determining step for both catalysts, in agreement with the experimental observation.

Synthesis and Characterization of One-Dimensional and Molecular M(tren)InAsS4 (M = Mn, Co, and Zn) Compounds with a Noncondensed AsS33- Unit

Four transition-metal-amine complexes incorporating indium thioarsenates with the general formula M(tren)InAsS4 (M=Mn, Co, and Zn) and a noncondensed AsS33- unit have been prepared and characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses show that compound 1 (M=Mn) crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system (space group: P (1) over bar) and consists of a one-dimensional (1D) inorganic (1)(infinity){[InAsS4](2-)} chain and [Mn(tren)](2+) groups bonded to the opposite sides of an eight-membered In2As2S4 ring along the backbone of the infinite inorganic chains. Compounds 2 (M=Mn), 3 (M=Zn), and 4 (M=Co) are isomorphous molecular compounds. They all crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system (space group: P2(1)/c). The Mn2+ cation of [Mn(tren)](2+) in 1 has a distorted octahedral environment, while the transition-metal cations of [M(tren)](2+) in the other three compounds locate in trigonal-bipyramidal environments.

The synthesis and properties of meso-tetra(4-alkylamidophenyl)porphyrin liquid crystals and their Zn complexes

A series of novel, long-chain-substituted, porphyrin derivatives, meso-tetra (4-alkylamidophenyl) porphyrin ligands and their Zn complexes (alkyl = 8,10,12,14,16,18) were prepared by acylation of the amino groups of 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin by alkyl chloride. Mesomorphism was investigated by DSC, polarized optical microscopy (POM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Only ligands containing chains > 12 carbon atoms displayed liquid crystalline behaviour, which exhibited a high phase transition temperature and a broad mesophase temperature span, Zn complexes showed no liquid crystalline behaviour. Cyclic voltammetry, luminescence spectra and surface photovoltage spectroscopy revealed that covalent linking of an alkylamido group to the tetraphenylporphyrin molecule influences, significantly, the properties of the porphyrin macrocycle.

Spectroscopic Study on Water Diffusion in Poly(ester urethane) Block Copolymer Matrix

The diffusion of water in a phase-separated biodegradable poly(ester urethane) shape-memory polymer with poly(E-caprolactone) (PCL) as the soft segment was investigated using time-resolved FTIR-ATR. On the basis of the band fitting and water ordering in drawn films, the broad water band in the 3800-2800 cm(-1) region was decomposed into four bands located at 3620, 3510, 3400, and 3260 cm(-1), and the first two components at 3620 and 35 10 cm(-1) were assigned to the vibrations of antisymmetric and symmetric stretching of water hydrogen bonded with the C=O group of the soft segment. The other two were associated with water bonded to the urethane hard segments in the forms of N-H:O-H:O=C bridge hydrogen bond and double hydrogen bonds with two C=O groups, respectively. Furthermore, band fitting and two-dimensional correlation analyses revealed that in the diffusion process, water first diffuses into the continuous soft-rich PCL phase and then into the hard-rich urethane domains, forming double hydrogen bonds with two C=O groups prior to the bridge hydrogen bond in the form of N-H:O-H:O=C.

Microstructures and mechanical properties of extruded Mg-8Gd-0.4Zr alloys containing Zn

Microstructures and mechanical properties of the Mg-8Gd-xZn-0.4Zr (x = 0, 1 and 3 wt.%) alloys in the as-cast, as-extruded and extruded-T5 conditions, have been investigated. The peak-aged Mg-8Gd-1Zn-0.4Zr alloy during isothermal ageing at 423 K acquires highest mechanical properties, with the highest ultimate tensile strength and yield tensile strength of 314 and 217 MPa, respectively. Addition of Zn has obvious effect on age hardening responses, especially for 1 wt.% Zn addition. It is due to a uniform distribution of beta' phase which can impede the movement of dislocations. However, addition of 3 wt.% Zn to the Mg-8Gd-0.4Zr alloy leads to a precipitation of Mg3Zn3Gd2 phase (W-phase). This phase is incoherent with interface of the matrix and becomes cores of the fracture in tensile test at room or elevated temperature.

Influence of Zn content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of extruded Mg-5Y-4Gd-0.4Zr alloy

Microstructures and mechanical properties of the Mg-5Y-4Gd-xZn-0.4Zr alloys have been investigated. These results show that the Mg-5Y-4Gd-0.5Zn-0.4Zr alloy in the peak-aged condition exhibits the highest tensile strength, and the values of the ultimate tensile strength and yield tensile strength are 370 and 300 MPa, respectively. It is suggested that addition of 0.5% Zn has a great effect on age hardening response. The long periodic stacking structure has been found in these Zn-containing alloys, and the volume fraction of this phase increases with increasing Zn addition. This phase plays an important role in improvement of the mechanical properties, especially for the elongations. The beta' phase precipitates during the ageing process are responsible for the improvement of the mechanical properties of the alloys in the peak-aged condition.

Effect of Zn concentration on the microstructures and mechanical properties of extruded Mg-7Y-4Gd-0.4Zr alloys

Microstructures and mechanical properties of the Mg-7Y-4Gd-xZn-0.4Zr (x = 0.5, 1.5, 3, and 5 wt.%) alloys in the as-cast, as-extruded, and peak-aged conditions have been investigated by using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. It is found that the peak-aged Mg-7Y-4Gd-1.5Zn-0.4Zr alloys have the highest strength after aging at 220 A degrees C. The highest ultimate tensile strength and yield tensile strength are 418 and 320 MPa, respectively. The addition of 1.5 wt.% Zn to the based alloys results in a greater aging effect and better mechanical properties at both room and elevated temperatures. The improved mechanical properties are mainly ascribed to both a fine beta' phase and a long periodic stacking-ordered structure, which coexist together in the peak-aged alloys.
