Sr(3)(Al(3+x)Si(13-x))(N(21-x)O(2+x)):Eu (x ? 0): a monoclinic modification of Sr-sialon.

ABSTRACT: The structure of the title compound, Sr-bearing oxonitrido-aluminosilicate (Sr-sialon), contains two types of channels running along the a axis, with the three unique Sr atoms (coordinatioon number seven) residing in the larger one. The channels cross a three-dimensional Si-Al-O-N network, in which the Si and Al atoms are in a tetra-hedral coordination with N and O atoms. The chemical composition of the crystal is close to Sr(3)Al(3)Si(13)N(21)O(2) (tris-trontium trialuminium trideca-silicon henicosa-nitride dioxide), which can be expressed as a mixture of SrSiN(2), Si(3)N(4), AlN, and SiO(2) components in the molar ratio 3:3:3:1. The crystal studied was metrically orthorhombic, consisting of four twin components related by metric merohedry.

The roles of Eu during the growth of eutectic Si in Al-Si alloys.

Project description:Controlling the growth of eutectic Si and thereby modifying the eutectic Si from flake-like to fibrous is a key factor in improving the properties of Al-Si alloys. To date, it is generally accepted that the impurity-induced twinning (IIT) mechanism and the twin plane re-entrant edge (TPRE) mechanism as well as poisoning of the TPRE mechanism are valid under certain conditions. However, IIT, TPRE or poisoning of the TPRE mechanism cannot be used to interpret all observations. Here, we report an atomic-scale experimental and theoretical investigation on the roles of Eu during the growth of eutectic Si in Al-Si alloys. Both experimental and theoretical investigations reveal three different roles: (i) the adsorption at the intersection of Si facets, inducing IIT mechanism, (ii) the adsorption at the twin plane re-entrant edge, inducing TPRE mechanism or poisoning of the TPRE mechanism, and (iii) the segregation ahead of the growing Si twins, inducing a solute entrainment within eutectic Si. This investigation not only demonstrates a direct experimental support to the well-accepted poisoning of the TPRE and IIT mechanisms, but also provides a full picture about the roles of Eu atoms during the growth of eutectic Si, including the solute entrainment within eutectic Si.

Eutectic modification by ternary compound cluster formation in Al-Si alloys.

Project description:Al-alloys with Si as the main alloying element constitute the vast majority of Al castings used commercially today. The eutectic Si microstructure in these alloys can be modified from plate-like to coral-like by the addition of a small amount of a third element to improve ductility and toughness. In this investigation the effects of Eu and Yb are studied and their influence on the microstructure is compared to further understand this modification. The two elements impact the alloy differently, where Eu modifies Si into a coral-like structure while Yb does not. Atom probe tomography shows that Eu is present within the Si phase in the form of ternary compound Al2Si2Eu clusters, while Yb is absent in the Si phase. This indicates that the presence of ternary compound clusters within Si is a necessary condition for the formation of a coral-like structure. A crystallographic orientation relationship between Si and the Al2Si2Eu phase was found, where the following plane normals are parallel: 011Si//0001Al2Si2Eu, 111Si//6[Formula: see text]10Al2Si2Eu and 011Si//6[Formula: see text]10Al2Si2Eu. No crystallographic relationship was found between Si and Al2Si2Yb. The heterogeneous formation of coherent Al2Si2Eu clusters inside the Si-phase is suggested to trigger the modification of the microstructure.

Effects of Complex Modification by Sr-Sb on the Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of Al-18 wt % Mg₂Si-4.5Cu Alloys.

Project description:This research was carried out to investigate the influence of Sr-Sb on the microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-18 wt % Mg₂Si-4.5Cu alloys. After the addition of 0.2 wt % Sr-Sb, the morphologies of primary Mg₂Si transformed from equiaxed dendrite to cube in as-cast alloys and the average size of primary Mg₂Si decreased from ~50 to ~20 μm. The shape of eutectic Mg₂Si changed from Chinese script to short rod. After extrusion and T6 heat treatment, the ultimate tensile strength of modified alloy at room temperature (RT) and 100 °C increased respectively from 229 to 288 MPa, and from 231 to 272 MPa. The elongation-to-failure only slightly improved from 2.9% to 3.8% and from 3.3% to 3.7% at RT and 100 °C, respectively. The tensile fracture surface revealed a transition from brittle fracture to ductile fracture after modifying by 0.2 wt % Sr-Sb.

High-performance SiGe anode materials obtained by dealloying a Sr-modified Al-Si-Ge eutectic precursor.

Project description:In exploring the anode materials for high efficiency Li-ion batteries, it has been found that the electrochemical performance of Si can be enhanced via alloying with Ge. In the present work, we modified the Al-Si-Ge eutectic ribbons as the precursor by adding a trace of Sr to the alloy. The SiGe particles obtained by dealloying the Al-Si-Ge eutectic precursor have a porous coral-like nano-architecture with numerous fibrous branches towards various directions. Because of the large surface area and porosity, the as-prepared Sr-modified SiGe anode delivers an excellent capacity of 1166.6 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles with a fantastic initial coulombic efficiency of 83.62%. Besides, it has a superior rate performance with a reversible capacity of 675.3 mA h g-1 at the current density of 8 A g-1. It is demonstrated that the modification treatment that is widely used in metallurgy is also a promising strategy to synthesize high-performance battery electrodes and other energy storage materials.

Modification of a Defect-Based Fatigue Assessment Model for Al-Si-Cu Cast Alloys.

Project description:Cast parts usually inherit internal defects such as micro shrinkage pores due to the manufacturing process. In order to assess the fatigue behaviour in both finite-life and long-life fatigue regions, this paper scientifically contributes towards a defect-based fatigue design model. Extensive fatigue and fracture mechanical tests were conducted whereby the crack initiating defect size population was fractographically evaluated. Complementary in situ X-ray computed tomography scans before and during fatigue testing enabled an experimental estimation of the lifetime until crack initiation, acting as a significant input for the fatigue model. A commonly applied fatigue assessment approach introduced by Tiryakioglu was modified by incorporating the long crack threshold value, which additionally enabled the assessment of the fatigue strength in the long-life fatigue regime. The presented design concept was validated utilising the fatigue test results, which revealed a sound agreement between the experiments and the model. Only a minor deviation of up to about five percent in case of long-life fatigue strength and up to about 9% in case of finite-lifetime were determined. Thus, the provided extension of Tiryakioglu's approach supports a unified fatigue strength assessment of cast aluminium alloys in both the finite- and long-life regimes.

The Effect of Bi-Sr and Ca-Sr Interactions on the Microstructure and Tensile Properties of Al-Si-Based Alloys.

Project description:The effect of bismuth and calcium additions on the microstructural characteristics and the tensile properties of the modified and grain-refined Al-Si based B319 alloys were studied in this paper. Based on the results obtained, it has been concluded that Bi reacts with both Sr and Mg, leading to severe demodification of the eutectic Si at Bi levels of 0.15%-0.6% Bi. Bismuth causes a decrease of the yield and tensile strengths for the as-cast and artificially aged conditions and an increase of yield strength in the solution heat-treated condition. The elongation increases with the Bi in the solution heat-treated condition. Based on this, Bi is found to be an efficient solid-solution strengthening element for these alloys. Thus, solution heat treatment, rather than the artificial aging, may be recommended for alloys containing about 1.0% Bi. Calcium has no significant demodification effect on the Sr-modified Si particles at 100-400 ppm Ca, and has a modifying effect at ~600 ppm Ca. The elongation increases with the Ca level at all conditions (as-cast, solution heat-treated, and artificially aged). A slight increase of the tensile strength in the heat-treated conditions was also observed. The lowest tensile properties either in the as-cast or the heat-treated conditions correspond to the most demodified-Si condition obtained at 408 ppm Ca. Calcium is, therefore, not as detrimental to the tensile properties as Bi.

Curcumenol from Curcuma zedoaria: a second monoclinic modification.

Project description:The title compound, systematic name 9-isopropyl-idene-2,6-dimethyl-11-oxatricyclo-[6.2.1.0(1,5)]undec-6-en-8-ol, C(15)H(22)O(2), which crystallizes with two mol-ecules of similar conformation in the asymmetric unit, features three fused rings, two of which are five-membered and the third six-membered. Of the two five-membered rings, the one with an O atom has a distinct envelope shape (with the O atom representing the flap). The six-membered ring is also envelope-shaped as it shares a common O atom with the five-membered ring. In the crystal, the two independent mol-ecules are linked by a pair of O-H?O hydrogen bonds, generating a dimer.

Revealing heterogeneous nucleation of primary Si and eutectic Si by AlP in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys.

Project description:The heterogeneous nucleation of primary Si and eutectic Si can be attributed to the presence of AlP. Although P, in the form of AlP particles, is usually observed in the centre of primary Si, there is still a lack of detailed investigations on the distribution of P within primary Si and eutectic Si in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys at the atomic scale. Here, we report an atomic-scale experimental investigation on the distribution of P in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys. P, in the form of AlP particles, was observed in the centre of primary Si. However, no significant amount of P was detected within primary Si, eutectic Si and the Al matrix. Instead, P was observed at the interface between the Al matrix and eutectic Si, strongly indicating that P, in the form of AlP particles (or AlP 'patch' dependent on the P concentration), may have nucleated on the surface of the Al matrix and thereby enhanced the heterogeneous nucleation of eutectic Si. The present investigation reveals some novel insights into heterogeneous nucleation of primary Si and eutectic Si by AlP in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys and can be used to further develop heterogeneous nucleation mechanisms based on adsorption.

Practical Stability of Au25(SR)18-1/0/+1.

Project description:Superatom electron shell and/or geometric shell filling underlies the thermodynamic stability of coinage and alkali metal clusters in both theoretical and experimental results. Factors beyond simple shell filling contribute substantially to the lifetime of ligated clusters in solution. Such factors include the nature of the solvent, the atmosphere and the steric size of the ligand shell. Here we systematically lay out a 'practical' stability model for ligated metal clusters, which includes both shell-closing aspects and colloidal stability aspects. Cluster decomposition may follow either fusion or fission pathways. Solvent polarity can be determinative of the decomposition pathway.
