    Synthesis of ZrC–SiC Powders by a Preceramic Solution Route (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-17
    Description: Homogenous liquid precursor for ZrC – SiC was prepared by blending of Zr ( OC 4 H 9 ) 4 and Poly[(methylsilylene)acetylene]. This precursor could be cured at 250°C and converted into binary ZrC – SiC composite ceramics upon heat treatment at 1700°C. The pyrolysis mechanism and optimal molar ratio of the precursor were investigated by XRD. The morphology and elements analyses were conducted by SEM and corresponding energy-dispersive spectrometer. The evolution of carbon during ceramization was studied by Raman spectroscopy. The results showed that the precursor samples heat treated at 900°C consisted of t- ZrO 2 (main phase) and m- ZrO 2 (minor phase). The higher temperature induced phase transformation and t- ZrO 2 converted into m- ZrO 2 . Further heating led to the formation of ZrC and SiC due to the carbothermal reduction, and the ceramic sample changed from compact to porous due to the generation of carbon oxides. With the increasing molar ratios of C / Zr , the residual oxides in 1700°C ceramic samples converted into ZrC and almost pure ZrC – SiC composite ceramics could be obtained in ZS-3 sample. The Zr , Si , and C elements were well distributed in the obtained ceramics powders and particles with a distribution of 100 ~ 300 nm consisted of well-crystallized ZrC and SiC phases.

    Ultra-Broad Temperature Stability Obtained with Ce-Doped BaTiO3-Based Ceramics (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-21
    Description: Ce -doped BaTiO 3 -based ceramics were prepared and studied to satisfy ultra-broad temperature stability (from −55°C to 300°C, capacitance variation rate based on C 20°C is within ±15%). The sample with 0.6 mol% CeO 2 succeeds to achieve this performance with a remarkably high ceiling temperature of 300°C. Meanwhile, the sample has good dielectric and electrical properties at room temperature (ε r  = 1667, tanδ = 1.478%, ρ V  = 5.9 × 10 12  Ω·cm). Ce ion can substitute for Ti ion as Ce 4+ or Ba ion as Ce 3+ . The substitution decreases the spontaneous polarization of BaTiO 3 , and then weakens the ferroelectricity of BaTiO 3 . As a result, the temperature stability of samples is improved obviously. Besides, CeO 2 addition promotes the formation of exaggerated grains, which are consisting of Ba 6 Ti 17 O 40 .

    Mineralogical Composition of Clinker as an Indicator of Sulfate Resistance: A Rietveld XRD/Takashima Approach (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-21
    Description: This study aims to optimize quantitative X-ray diffraction (XRD) mineralogical analysis of the minority phases in clinker. The proposed method consists of applying Rietveld quantitative refinement to the XRD patterns for both clinker and the insoluble residue remaining after it is attacked with methanol and salicylic acid (Takashima method). The method was tested with industrial clinker and the same material after modifying its mineralogy by refiring at 1500°C followed by slow cooling. The findings showed that the C 4 AF / C 3 A ratios for quickly and gradually cooled clinker were much higher when the clinker diffractograms were refined with the Rietveld procedure than when the proposed method was used. The proportion of C 3 A found with the proposed method was ≈2.8-fold higher than when Rietveld only was applied to the diffractograms for clinkers. Taken together, the refinement data for the two materials (clinker and Takashima residua) revealed that Rietveld quantitative XRD applied to clinker underestimates the low C 3 A content. These findings are supported by postsulfate attack durability studies conducted on cements prepared with the two clinkers.

    The Effect of Electric Poling on the Performance of Lead-Free (1−x)Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3–x(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 Piezoceramics (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-21
    Description: The effect of increasing poling fields on the properties of (1− x )BZT– x BCT compositions across the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) is studied using large signal polarization and strain, small signal permittivity and piezoelectric coefficient, and XRD measurements. Successive poling causes charge carrier migration inducing an internal bias field, which becomes large with respect to the coercive field resulting in biased ferroelectric and ferroelastic switching. Improvements in piezoelectric coefficient of 9% are significantly smaller in the tetragonal 60BCT composition compared with the improvement of approximately 50% in the rhombohedral 40BCT and MPB 50BCT compositions. While the properties continue to change with increased poling fields, the remnant ferroelastic domain texture parallel to the field direction, as observed from XRD, stays approximately constant. The improvement in overall domain alignment leading to largely enhanced intrinsic piezoelectricity originates from the alignment of 180° domains and possibly non-180° domains in grains with orientations inclined to the electric field. As a result, poling is most effective in BZT–BCT materials that have low coercive fields, show low distortions and possess more polarization orientations, such as compositions in the rhombohedral phase field or near the MPB.

    Impedance Spectroscopy and Dielectric Properties of Flash Versus Conventionally Sintered Yttria-Doped Zirconia Electroceramics Viewed at the Microstructural Level (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-21
    Description: The defect chemistry-modulated dielectric properties of dense yttria-doped zirconia ceramics prepared by conventional sintering (at 1350°C–1500°C) and electric field-assisted flash sintering (55 V/cm at 900°C) were studied by impedance spectroscopy. While the bulk dielectric properties from both sets of samples showed only small and insignificant changes in conductivity and permittivity, respectively, a huge increase of these properties was measured for the grain boundaries in the flash sintered specimens. A close analysis of these results suggests that flash sintering reduced grain-boundary thickness (by about 30%), while increasing the concentration of oxygen vacancies near these interfaces (by about 49%). The underlying mechanism proposed is electric field-assisted generation and accommodation of defects in the space-charge layers adjacent to the grain surface. The changes in measured permittivity are attributed to the boundary thickness effect on capacitance, while conductivity involved variations in its defect density-dependent intrinsic value, accounting for changes also observed in grain-boundary relaxation frequencies. Therefore, in terms of modifications to the specific dielectric properties of these materials, the overall consequence of flash sintering was to considerably lower the semi-blocking character of the grain boundaries.

    Nanoscaled Interface Between Microgold Particles and Biphase Glass-Ceramic Matrix (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-21
    Description: This article presents a detailed study on the nanoscaled interface between microelongated gold particles (GP) and biphase leucite/feldspar glass-ceramic matrix. The glass-ceramic composite with a nonuniform GP distribution was processed through hot-pressing under vacuum using a commercial dental ceramic furnace for glass-ceramic dental crown manufacturing. Heat treatments at 900°C, 1100°C, and 1300°C were conducted, and microstructural features along the interface were used to verify the chemical reactions between GP and glass-ceramic matrix. It was observed that the amorphous glass-ceramic matrix had nanoscaled biphase structures, and the distributed nanoscaled amorphous leucite phase was attracted to GP during hot-pressing, and was more reactive with GP than the feldspar phase. The thickness of the interfacial phase formed through chemical reactions between GP and glass-ceramic matrix is around 30 nm. The chemically bonded interface has contributed significantly toward the substantial improvements in both strength and toughness of the GP-reinforced glass-ceramic matrix composite. Characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction and field-emission scanning electron Microscopy, incorporating X-ray microanalysis using energy dispersive spectrometry, have been employed in this study.

    Raman Spectroscopy of Anhydrous and Hydrated Calcium Aluminates and Sulfoaluminates (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-10-02
    Description: Recent investigations have revealed the great potential of Raman spectroscopy for the characterization of clinker minerals and commercial Portland cements. The usefulness of this technique for the identification of anhydrous, hydrated, and carbonated phases in cement-based materials has been demonstrated. In the present work, the application of micro-Raman spectroscopy for the characterization of the main clinker phases of calcium aluminate cements and calcium sulfoaluminate cement is explored. The main stable hydrated phases as well as several important carbonated phases are investigated. Raman measurements on the following phases are reported: (i) pure, unhydrated phases: CA, C 12 A 7 , CA 2 , C 2 AS, cubic- C 3 A , C 4 AF, and C 4 A 3 ; (ii) hydrated phases: ettringite, monosulfoaluminate, and hydrogarnet ( C 3 AH 6 ); (iii) carboaluminate phases: hemicarboaluminate and monocarboaluminate. The present results, which are discussed in terms of the internal vibrational modes of the aluminate, carbonate, and sulfate molecular groups as well as stretching O–H vibrations, show the ability of Raman spectroscopy to identify the main hydrated and unhydrated phases in the aluminate and sulfoaluminate cements. The Raman spectra obtained in this work provide an extended database to the existing data published in the literature.

    Solvothermal Synthesis of Acmite Conversion Coatings on Steel (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-10-02
    Description: Acmite ( NaFeSi 2 O 6 ) films were formed on steel coupons via solvothermal reaction of silica, sodium hydroxide, and 1, 4-butanediol in an autoclave under autogenous pressure. Systematic variation in processing variables led to homogenous coatings comprised of pinacoidal acmite grains with an average grain size of ~33 μm. The coatings were produced on the steel coupons from reactant conditions of 0.635 m SiO 2 , 2.546 m NaOH , and 3.087 m 1,4-butanediol for 72 h at 240°C.

    Properties of an Infrared-Transparent MgO:Y2O3 Nanocomposite (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-07
    Description: A 50:50 vol% MgO – Y 2 O 3 nanocomposite with ~150 nm grain size was prepared in an attempt to make 3–5 μm infrared-transmitting windows with increased durability and thermal shock resistance. Flexure strength of the composite at 21°C is 679 MPa for 0.88 cm 2 under load. Hardness is consistent with that of the constituents with similar grain size. For 3-mm-thick material at 4.85 μm, the total scatter loss is 1.5%, forward scatter is 0.2%, and absorptance is 1.8%. Optical scatter below 2 μm is 100%. Variable intensity OH absorption (~6% absorptance) is observed near 3 μm. The refractive index is ~0.4% below the volume-fraction-weighted average of those of the constituents. Thermal expansion is equal to the volume-fraction-weighted average of expansion of the constituents. Specific heat capacity is equal to the mass-fraction-weighted average of heat capacities of the constituents. Thermal conductivity lies between those of the constituents up to 1200 K. Elastic constants lie between those of the constituents. The Hasselman mild thermal shock resistance parameter for the composite is twice as great as that of common 3–5 μm window materials, but half as great as that of c -plane sapphire.

    Preparation of Y2Si2O7/ZrO2 Composites and Their Composition – Mechanical Properties – Tribology Relationships (2013)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-19
    Description: In this work, novel Y 2 Si 2 O 7 / ZrO 2 composites were developed for structural and coating applications by taking advantage of their unique properties, such as good damage tolerance, tunable mechanical properties, and superior wear resistance. The γ- Y 2 Si 2 O 7 / ZrO 2 composites showed improved mechanical properties compared to the γ- Y 2 Si 2 O 7 matrix material, that is, the Young's modulus was enhanced from 155 to 188 GPa (121%) and the flexural strength from 135 to 254 MPa (181%); when the amount of ZrO 2 was increased from 0 to 50 vol%, the γ- Y 2 Si 2 O 7 / ZrO 2 composites also presented relatively high facture toughness (〉1.7 MPa·m 1/2 ), but this exhibited an inverse relationship with the ZrO 2 content. The composition–mechanical property–tribology relationships of the Y 2 Si 2 O 7 / ZrO 2 composites were elucidated. The wear resistance of the composites is not only influenced by the applied load, hardness, strength, toughness, and rigidity but also effectively depends on micromechanical stability properties of the microstructures. The easy growth of subcritical microcracks in Y 2 Si 2 O 7 grains and at grain boundaries significantly contributes to the macroscopic fracture toughness, but promotes the pull-out of individual grains, thus resulting in a lack of correlation between the wear rate and the macroscopic fracture toughness of the composites.
