Structural, microstructural and dielectric studies in multiferroic LaSrNiO4-δ prepared by mechanical milling method
2016
Abstract The solid solution LaSrNiO 4-δ has been successfully prepared by a rapid method combining mechanical milling and heat treatment. The structure and microstructure transformations were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The dielectric property was also investigated. After 10 h of milling and 8 h of heat treatment at 1300 °C, X-ray diffraction analysis revealed LaSrNiO 4-δ single phase, exhibiting tetragonal structure with space group of I4/mmm. This result was confirmed by using the ED pattern for sample using the [001] orientation. The corresponding lattice images show the compound to be well ordered, indicating the absence of s…
Improve the dielectric properties of PrSrNi0.8Mn0.2O4 compounds by longer mechanical milling
2018
Abstract Structural and dielectric properties of PrSrNi 0.8 Mn 0.2 O 4 ceramics elaborated by a rapid method combining mechanical milling and heat treatment were studied for the first time. The raw materials are milled at different times ( t mil = 0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 h) and annealed at 1300 °C for 8 h to produce a revealed PrSrNi 0.8 Mn 0.2 O 4 single phase, exhibiting tetragonal structure with space group I 4/ mmm . This result was confirmed by using the TEM/ED pattern for sample milled at 30 h using the [001] orientation. The corresponding lattice images show a well-ordered compound, indicating the absence of stacking faults and the growth of the crystallites. Giant dielectric response …
Characteristics of Sintered Materials Obtained from Ferrite Nanopowders Synthesised with Different Methods
2018
Ferrite materials, especially those containing nickel and cobalt, are popular due to their unique mechanical and magnetic properties. Single phase NiFe2O4 and CoFe2O4 nanopowders obtained by different methods were used for sintering studies. Chemical sol-gel self-propagating combustion method, co-precipitation technology combined with hydrothermal synthesis or spray-drying method, and high frequency plasma chemical synthesis have been used to synthesize ferrite nanopowders. Relatively dense (95-99%) materials with high saturation magnetization (MS = 80-84 emu/g for CoFe2O4 and MS = 46-48 emu/g for NiFe2O4) were obtained at 1100-1200 °C temperatures.
Wear and corrosion resistant performance of thermal-sprayed Fe-based amorphous coatings: A review
2019
Abstract Thermal sprayed Fe-based amorphous coatings exhibit excellent wear and corrosion resistance, and thus have been widely utilized for enhancing the performance of material surfaces. In this paper, important research progresses achieved in regards to deposition technologies and properties of thermal sprayed Fe-based amorphous coatings are reviewed. In particular, the dependence of wear and corrosion resistance of the coatings on processing parameters, e.g., kinetic energy, particle size, gas flow rate, and heat treatment temperature are summarized. Moreover, the utilization of reinforced phases and alloy elements for enhancing the wear and corrosion resistance of the coatings are pres…
Microstructure and electric properties of low-pressure plasma sprayed β-FeSi 2 based coatings
2017
Abstract Thermoelectric material β-FeSi 2 based coating was fabricated by the technique low-pressure plasma spray (LPPS) on the Al 2 O 3 substrate from different alloy powders. During the process LPPS, the phase transformation had occurred through the peritectoid, eutectoid reaction and their inverse reaction. The grain size of the as-sprayed β-FeSi 2 doped Co coatings was reduced comparing with the original feedstock powders, which implied the thermal conductivity could effectively decreased by the LPPS process. The room temperature electrical conductivity showed metal and semiconductor properties on the as-sprayed and annealed coatings. This method and the results could solve the problems…
Synthesis of FeAl Hetero-Nanostructured Bulk Parts via Spark Plasma Sintering of Milled Powder
2006
AbstractSpark plasma sintering (SPS) has been used in order to introduce nanocrystalline grains within fully dense FeAl consolidated parts. Hetero-nanostructured parts, consisting of nano, ultrafine and micrometric grains, have been successfully processed when milled - Y2O3 reinforced - FeAl powder was used. The large temperature differences that are spontaneously generated during the SPS process as well as the use of milled powder account for the formation of such interesting structures. The grain size distribution - that is suggested to be very potent to improve both strength and ductility - could be significantly modified by a proper selection of sintering temperature and holding time.
Growth of WC–Cr–N and WC–Al–N coatings in a RF-magnetron sputtering process
2013
Tungsten carbide-based coatings have been used in a wide variety of industrial applications such as high speed cutting tools, extrusion dies, drills, aerospace industries, and more. A few reports on ternary and quaternary coatings of WC with other elements indicate good prospects for these material systems. The present study focuses on the formation of quaternary WCeCreN and WCeAleN coatings during the simultaneous reactive RF-magnetron sputtering of tungsten carbide and Al or Cr targets in an argon/nitrogen gas mixture. The resulting coatings, with thicknesses of 3.5 mme8.2 mm, were characterized by using several analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction, SEM/EDS, AFM, and X-ray ph…
Impact of rolling conditions on the hydriding of grade 2 titanium welded tubes
2020
In this article, we study the impact of rolling conditions on the texture of the commercially pure titanium grade 2. In a previous work, NEOTISS in collaboration with ICB laboratory, shown that the texture highly influences the precipitation of hydrides in Titanium. In order to create different textures, Titanium sheets grade 2 are cold rolled asymmetrically and symmetrically with or without lubricant. The inverse pole figures and direct pole figures obtained allow us to deduce that symmetrical cold rolling does not change the grains orientation but generates a rotation of grains along c-axis (normal to basal plan). However, asymmetrical cold rolling leads to the formation of a new crystall…
Morphological and magnetic analysis of Fe nanostructures on W(110) by using scanning tunneling microscopy and Lorentz microscopy
2016
Abstract We investigated morphological features and magnetic properties of epitaxial Fe nanostructures (films, stripes and nanoparticles) on a W(110) surface with monoatomic steps preferentially along the direction. The nanostructures were prepared in ultra-high vacuum by using electron-beam evaporation and subsequent annealing at different temperatures. Scanning tunneling microscopy measurements in-situ revealed elongated Fe nanostructures with aspect ratios of up to . The observable shape and orientation (along or perpendicular to the monoatomic steps of the substrate) of the nanostructures depended substantially on the preparation parameters. By capping the system with 7 monolayers of Pt…
Molecular dynamics simulations of nanometric metallic multilayers: Reactivity of the Ni-Al system
2011
The reactivity of a layered Ni-Al-Ni system is studied by means of molecular dynamics simulations, using an embedded-atom method type potential. The system, made of an fcc-Al layer embedded in fcc-Ni, is initially thermalized at the fixed temperature of 600 K. The early interdiffusion of Ni and Al at interfaces is followed by the massive diffusion of Ni in the Al layer and by the spontaneous phase formation of $B2$-NiAl. The solid-state reaction is associated with a rapid system heating, which further enhances the diffusion processes. For longer times, the system may partly lose some its $B2$-NiAl microstructure in favor of the formation of $L{1}_{2}$-${\mathrm{Ni}}_{3}\mathrm{Al}$. This st…
