The behavior of hydrogen in Ni was investigated using the first-principles calculations. It was found that there exists only atomic hydrogen in Ni. The hydrogen resides the octabedron, and the lattice constant expands linearly with the concentration of hydrogen. On the basis of a statistical thermodynamic model, the dependency of hydrogen solubility on temperature in Ni was also investigated, and it was found that magnetization does not favor the dissolution of hydrogen, which is in agreement with the experimental results.

The kinetics of hydrogen-induced disproportionation of Zr 2 Co was studied by the conventional constant volume method in a temperature range of 773 to 873 K. It was found that Zr 2 Co disproportionated as 2Zr 2 Co + 3H 2 → 3ZrH 2 + ZrCo 2 through a two-step mechanism as 1) Zr 2 Co + H 2 → ZrH 2 + ZrCo and 2) 2ZrCo + H 2 → ZrH 2 + ZrCo 2 . The first step was very fast and completed within only 100 s at 773 K. The rate, however, decreased with increases in temperature The apparent rate constant for the first step disproportionation was determined to be k = 2.0 × 10 -2 exp[15.0 × 10 3 (J/mol)/RT], where the kinetics could be explained by nucleation and one-dimensional growth model. The kinetics of the second step disproportionation could be explained by nucleation and three-dimensional growth model.

The microstructure and tensile properties of a rolled specimen of Mg-5.5 mass%Zn-0.6 mass%Zr alloy are investigated. A relatively small grain size of 15.9 μm was obtained in the rolled specimen. The rolled magnesium alloy exhibited higher strength than the annealed specimen at room temperature, while the elongation was almost the same as the annealed specimen. Also, a large elongation of 501% was obtained at 573 K for the rolled specimen. A smaller grain size of 9.6 μm was obtained due to dynamic recrystallization during the tensile test at 573 K.

The accuracy of electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and electron holography on thickness measurement of amorphous SiO 2 was discussed. Since the SiO 2 particles investigated in this work have a spherical shape, local thickness along the incident electron beam can easily be evaluated. Thus, from EELS, the mean free path of inelastic scattering was determined to be 178 ± 4nm at 200kV. It is considered that thickness measurement is limited to amorphous SiO 2 film thicker than about 20 nm with EELS. On the other hand, from phase shift in the electron hologram, the mean inner potential was evaluated to be 11.5 ± 0.3 V. It is suggested that the thickness measurement is possible up to a few nanometers with electron holography. Thus, it is pointed out that the accurate thickness measurement is possible for a thinner region wilt electron holography than EELS.

Magnetic domain structures of Nd 2 Fe 14 B based permanent magnets were studied by using electron holography and Lorentz microscopy. In a sintered Nd 2 Fe 14 B permanent magnet, a domain wall width of a 180° magnetic domain was evaluated to be 5.1 nm by Lorentz microscopy, while the magnetization distribution in the 90° magnetic domain was clarified by electron holography. In overquenched Nd 2 Fe 14 B permanent magnets, the sharp difference in the magnetization distribution due to the heat treatment was clarified by electron holography. The different magnetic properties of the magnets was directly attributed to the difference of the magnetization distribution.

Computer simulations of molecular dynamics (MD) were used to study the clustering of vacancies in nickel. This was carried out in order to investigate the atomistic processes of vacancy agglomeration in irradiated metals. Simulations were carried out using DYNAMO ver. 8.5 code, by implementing the potential of the embedded atom method (EAM). Firstly, a perfect crystal was thermalized at 1300, 1500, 1700 and 1800 K. Next, four triangular vacancy clusters whose sizes were 10 were introduced on the (111) planes at randomly selected positions. MD simulations were performed using a very small time step of outputs to observe the atomistic processes of the movement of each vacancy. It was found that the vacancy clusters moved and agglomerated whilst maintaining the individual clusters. Thus, a vacancy did not evaporate from a cluster to be absorbed into a larger cluster. There were three different processes in the agglomeration of the vacancy clusters. One was an atom caged in a tetrahedral structure of vacancies moved to another lattice site. Another was an atom caged in a octahedral structure of vacancies moved to another lattice site. The other was an atom moved along a (110) row.

The electromagnetic wave absorption properties of a magnetic powder with a fine α-Fe structure, produced by the disproportionation of Sm 2 Fe 17 , were investigated in the GHz frequency range. A fine, sub-micrometre α-Fe/SmH 2 structure was formed from the Sm 2 Fe 17 compound after disproportionation in a hydrogen atmosphere. The grain size of the α-Fe phase was calculated by X-ray diffraction line broadening analysis, to he about 30nm. In this way, a magnetic powder with a line structure of α-Fe was obtained. This powder was then heated in air in order to oxidize the SmH 2 , with the result that an α-Fe/SmO two-phase microstructure was obtained. Toroidally shaped epoxyresin composites were made from this powder, and the microwave absorption properties of these samples were measured. As a result, the disproportionated samples (heated in hydrogen at 873 K for 1 hour, milled for 30 minutes and oxidized at 473 K for 2 hours in the air) exhibited electromagnetic wave absorption (R.L. < -20 dB) in the frequency range 0.75 to 1.3 GHz, for absorber thicknesses ranging from 12.5 to 7.5 mm, respectively. An undisproportionated sample did not show any electromagnetic wave absorption in this frequency range.

The protium absorption properties of Mg-Al-Cu, Mg-Al-Ni, and Mg-Al-Si alloys have been investigated in conjunction with mi crostructures and the phases present. The alloys were prepared by a flux-melting technique. Mg-Al-Cu as-cast alloys were found to consist of Mg, MgAlCu, and Mg 17 Al 12 phases In addition to the Mg phase, the Mg 17 Al 12 phase also contributed to the protium absorption by undergoing a disproportionation reaction. The protium absorption capacity of these Mg-Al-Cu alloys ranged from 2.2 to 4.6 mass% at 623 K, and was found to be controlled by the amount of Mg and Mg 17 Al 12 phases present. For the Mg-25Al-5Ni and Mg-25Al-5Si as-cast alloys, Mg and Mg 17 Al 12 phases were found to be present. In addition, a Mg 2 Si phase was observed in the Mg-25Al-5Si alloy. The protium absorption capacities of the Mg-25Al-5Ni and Mg-25Al-5Si alloys were 3.6 and 3.9 mass%, respectively, Unlike the Mg-Al-Cu alloys, the Mg 17 Al 12 phase in Mg-Al-Ni and Mg-Al-Si alloys partially remained even after protium absorption. This difference in disproportionation behavior seems to be due to the small amount of solute elements in the Mg 17 Al 12 phase, and/or to the microstructure.

Niobium solid solution/niobium silicides in-situ composites are expected to have applications in the future as high-temperature structural materials. To improve the high temperature strength further, we tried to add tungsten to Nb-10Mo-10Ti-18Si eutectic alloy by replacing Nb with 0, 5, 10 and 15 mol%W, The samples were prepared by arc casting and some of them were directionally solidified by the floating zone melting technique at a growth rate of 15 mm/h, After annealing at 1870 K for 100h, the microstructure, Vickers hardness and high-temperature compressive strength were examined. The samples without W consisted of eutectic Nb solid solution and (Nb, Mo, Ti) 5 Si 3 silicide, while primary Nb solid solution appeared as a result of substituting W for Nb. The microstructure of directionally solidified samples was coarse and oriented in the direction of growth, but they did not show the typical microstructure often observed in the case of directionally solidified materials. The Vickers hardness increased with increasing W content. The 0.2% yield strength (σ 0.2 ) and the specific 0.2% yield strength (σ 0.25 ) (σ 0.2 divided by the density) at 1670 K increased markedly with increasing W content. The directionally solidified samples showed higher σ 0.2 and σ 0.2S than the arc-cast samples. Even at 1770 K, the directionally solidified sample with 15 mol% W showed σ 0.2 of about 650 MPa.

The 0.2% yield strength (σ 0.2 ) and the specific 0.2% yield strength (σ 0.25 ) (σ 0.2 divided by the density) at 1670 K increased markedly with increasing W content. The directionally solidified samples showed higher σ 0.2 and σ 0.2S than the arc-cast samples. Even at 1770 K, the directionally solidified sample with 15 mol% W showed σ 0.2 of about 650 MPa.","PeriodicalId":18264,"journal":{"name":"Materials Transactions Jim","volume":"17 1","pages":"1125-1128"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85450593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
