FEM based prediction of phase transformations during Friction Stir Welding of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy
2013
Abstract Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state welding process patented in 1991 by TWI; initially adopted to weld aluminum alloys, it is now being successfully used also for high resistant materials. Welding of titanium alloys by traditional fusion welding techniques presents several difficulties due to high material reactivity with oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen with consequent embrittlement of the joint. In this way FSW represents a cost effective and high quality solution. The final mechanical properties of the joints are strictly connected to the microstructural evolutions, in terms of phase change, occurring during the process. In the paper a 3D FEM model of the FSW welding proc…
Más allá del acero: Otros metales y sus usos en la arquitectura del siglo XXI
2009
[ES] El protagonismo que ostentan los metales como compuestos básicos para el desenvolvimiento cotidiano de la vida humana resulta evidente e irrefutable. Del mismo modo que una mayoría de las actividades diarias que realizamos serían imposibles sin el apoyo que nos brinda el metal, un amplio porcentaje de la arquitectura de la última centuria también hace descansar sus fundamentos en la solidez de una estructura metálica. Más allá del hierro como predecesor y del acero como digno sucesor, la constructiva recurre asimismo con asiduidad a otros metales para conformar con ellos la imagen final del edificio, redundando en ésta componentes tanto técnicos como expresivos de los que son responsab…
Polycrystalline TiO2 impregnated with cardanol-based porphyrins for the photocatalytic degradation of 4-nitrophenol
2004
Hydrogenated cardanol (3-n-pentadecylphenol), a renewable organic resource obtained by vacuum distillation of roasted “cashew nut shell liquid” (CNSL), a by-product of the cashew industry, has been used to synthesize novel lipophilic porphyrins. Polycrystalline TiO2 impregnated with these novel “cardanol-based” porphyrins as sensitizers has been investigated in the photodegradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in aqueous suspension. The results indicated that the presence of the sensitizer enhances the photoactivity of polycrystalline bare TiO2 in the process. The activating effect was higher in the case of the Cu-complex.
Polymerisation von propylen mit Al-haltigen und Al-freien titantrichloriden verschiedener korngrößen. 8. Mitt.. Zur polymerisation mit metallorganisc…
1969
Es wird uber die Polymerisation von Propylen an einem Al-haltigen (TiCl3-(Al)) und einem Al-freien (TiCl3-(Ti)) Titantrichloride berichtet; diese erfolgt mit TiCl3-(Al) wesentlich rascher. Eine Vorbehandlung beider Titantrichloride mit Al(C2H5)2Cl unter Polymerisationsbedingungen ergibt einen hohern Athylgruppengehalt des TiCl3-(Al) gegenuber TiCl3-(Ti). Fraktionierung beider Titantrichloride nach der Korngrose fuhrt zu analogen Ergebnissen hinsichtlich der Abhangigkeit der Polymerisationsaktivitat und der Viskositatszahlen der Polypropylene von der Feinheit des verwendeten Titantrichlorids. Auch die Molekulargewichtsverteilungen der mit den beiden Titantrichloriden hergestellten Polypropyl…
Syndiospecific polymerization of styrene using methylaluminoxane-activated bis(phenolato)titanium complexes
1998
Styrene was polymerized using a series of methylaluminoxane-activated bis(phenolato)titanium complexes of the type ((OC 6 H 2 -4-Me-6- 1 Bu) 2 Z)TiX 2 (X = Cl, O 1 Pr, η 5 -C 5 Me 5 ) to give syndiotactic polystyrene. Catalyst activity was found to depend on the nature of the bridging group Z, where Z = CH 2 , CH 2 CH 2 , S, S=O. Activity was found to be highest for Z = S.
Olefin polymerization and copolymerization by complexes bearing [ONNO]-Type salan ligands: Effect of ligand structure and metal type (titanium, zirco…
2014
A series of novel titanium(IV) complexes bearing tetradentate [ONNO] salan type ligands: [Ti{2,2′-(OC6H3-5-t-Bu)2-NHRNH}Cl2] (Lig1TiCl2: R = C2H4; Lig2TiCl2: R = C4H8; Lig3TiCl2: R = C6H12) and [Ti{2,2′-(OC6H2-3,5-di-t-Bu)2-NHC6H12NH}Cl2] (Lig4TiCl2) were synthesized and used in the (co)polymerization of olefins. Vanadium and zirconium complexes: [M{2,2′-(OC6H3-3,5-di-t-Bu)2-NHC6H12NH}Cl2] (Lig4VCl2: M = V; Lig4ZrCl2: M = Zr) were also synthesized for comparative investigations. All the complexes turned out active in 1-octene polymerization after activation by MAO and/or Al(i-Bu)3/[Ph3C][B(C6F5)4]. The catalytic performance of titanium complexes was strictly dependent on their structures an…
Synthesis and characterization of titanium dioxide and titanium dioxide–based materials
2021
Abstract The aim of the chapter is to describe some different preparation methods and characterization techniques for bare, supported, and coupled TiO2 samples used in different fields. Particular attention has been paid both to the fundamental aspects of the different TiO2 preparation and characterization methods and the practical applications that the results obtained can have. Various examples have been reported from the literature to demonstrate the usefulness that students and scientists working with TiO2-based materials in different research areas can derive from various characterizations.
Oxidation of CH4 over Pd supported on TiO2-doped SiO2: Effect of Ti(IV) loading and influence of SO2
2009
Titania-modified silicas with different weight% of TiO2 were prepared by sol-gel method and used as supports for Pd (1 wt%) catalysts. The obtained materials were tested in the oxidation of methane under lean conditions in absence and in presence of SO2. Test reactions were consecutively performed in order to evaluate the thermal stability and poisoning reversibility. Increasing amounts of TiO2 improved the catalytic activity, with an optimum of the performance for 10 wt% TiO2 loading. Moreover, the titaniacontaining catalysts exhibited a superior tolerance towards SO2 by either adding it to the reactants or feeding it as a pure pretreatment atmosphere at 350 8C. Catalysts were characterize…
Efficient Degradation of 4-Nitrophenol by Using Functionalized Porphyrin TiO2 Photocatalysts Under Visible Irradiation
2007
Abstract The novel porphyrins 5,10,15,20-tetra-[4-(3-phenoxy)-propoxy]phenyl porphyrin, H2Pp(a) and 5,10,15,20-tetra-[2-(3-phenoxy)-propoxy]phenyl porphyrin, H2Pp(b) and their corresponding copper(II) complexes CuPp(a), CuPp(b) were synthesized and characterized by using various spectroscopic techniques. The photocatalytic activity of polycrystalline TiO2 samples impregnated with H2Pp(a), H2Pp(b), CuPp(a) and CuPp(b) as sensitizers have been investigated by carrying out the photo-degradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) as a probe reaction in aqueous suspension and under visible light. The maximum photocatalytic activity was obtained using TiO2 loaded with a monolayer of the copper porphyrin CuP…
New preparation of ceramic coatings by low-pressure plasma spray
2018
As an advanced thermal spray technology, low-pressure plasma spray (LPPS) allows obtaining high-quality coatings and can bridge the thickness gap between conventional thermal spray technologies and standard thin film processes. Moreover, LPPS permits to build uniform coatings with various microstructures; deposition takes place not only from liquid splats but also from nano-sized clusters as well as from the vapor phase depending on operational conditions. In order to further improve and develop the LPPS process, this research aims to combine it with the emerging suspension plasma spray and reactive plasma spray processes. It was expected to both provide two novel integrated processes and a…
