研究了轧制变形量及退火温度对T9S钛合金板材显微组织和室温力学性能的影响。结果表明:增加成品轧制变形量,板材组织破碎更充分,退火后形成等轴α相、拉长α相和晶间β相组织形貌,变形流线比较明显,板材室温强度和硬度升高,伸长率降低,弹性模量增加。随着退火温度升高,板材室温强度和硬度逐渐降低,伸长率逐渐提高,横向弹性模量逐渐减小,纵向弹性模量先增加后减小。经(750~790) ℃×45 min空冷退火处理后的板材可以获得较好的强度和塑性的匹配。     

Preparation and electrochromism of pyrochlore-type tungsten oxide film

Pyrochlore-type WO_3 powder was synthesized via hydrothermal method using aqueous sodium tungstate solution and oxalic acid as raw materials. The as-prepared powder was made into a soliquoid,from which films were made by dip coating process with indium-tin oxide(ITO).The obtained films were characterized by thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis(TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM), cyclic voltammetry(CV), chronoamperometry(CA) and ultravioletvisible(UV-Vis) absorption. Results show that the crystal of the pyrochlore-type WO_3 powder is perfect. When the calcination temperature rises from room temperature to500 ℃,the pyrochlore-type structure first becomes deformed, then it is destroyed and turns into amorphous phase,finally it will completely convert to WO_3 with a monoclinic structure. Electrochemical and optical tests demonstrate that the film calcined at 300 ℃ exhibits the best electrochromic performance and has a coloration efficiency of up to 68.5 cm~2 C~(-1) at 884 nm.     

A Reduced Reachability Tree for a Class of Unbounded Petri Nets

As a powerful analysis tool of Petri nets, reachability trees are fundamental for systematically investigating many characteristics such as boundedness, liveness and reversibility. This work proposes a method to generate a reachability tree, called ωRT for short, for a class of unbounded generalized nets called ω-independent nets based on new modified reachability trees (NMRTs). ωRT can effectively decrease the number of nodes by removing duplicate and ω-duplicate nodes in the tree, and verify properties such as reachability, liveness and deadlocks. Two examples are provided to show its superiority over NMRTs in terms of tree size.      

Transparent niobate glass-ceramics for optical limiting

The construction of nonlinear optical materials featuring asymmetric transmission of light is of great technological importance for various applications, including optical switching and optical power limiting. A significant challenge is the scalable fabrication of material candidates with good photochemical stability, high optical transmittance, and excellent optical limiting performance. Here, we present a nanocrystallization avenue for constructing hybrid optical limiting materials that exhibit ultrafast and robust optical limiting performance. The experimental results show that the controllable relaxation of a niobate glass may lead to the clustering of Nb-O units and contracting of the bandgap. It results in the notable improvement in nonlinear optical properties, including the enhanced saturation irradiance (380 GW/cm²), doubly increased nonlinear coefficient, and decreased limiting threshold (200 GW/cm²). Our results suggest a promising material that exhibits promising applications for protecting eyes and sensitive components from laser-induced damage.     

Structures and properties of chicken myofibrillar protein gel induced by microwave heating

Structures and properties of myofibrillar protein gel prepared at different power (300–800 W) were evaluated. Amino acid analysis demonstrated that changes in microwave power did not alter primary structure of gel. However, an increase in microwave power could change higher structures of gel. As microwave power increased, α-helix content decreased and β-sheet content increased. Increased microwave power probably facilitated protein to unfold and expose the internal groups, causing surface hydrophobicity and the formation of disulphide bonds were enhanced, which indicated changes in tertiary and quaternary structures of protein. At 500 W, gel had the best ultrastructure where surface morphology, springiness and water holding capacity reached the optimum. Our findings suggested that microwave at an appropriate power (500 W) could change higher structures of myofibrillar protein gel to achieve desired processing and quality protein gel characteristics.

Novel thermal-sensitive properties of NBT-BZT composite ceramics for high-temperature NTC thermistors

We found for the first time that (1 − x) Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃-xBiZn_0.5Ti_0.5O₃ (NBT–BZT) composite ceramics showed negative temperature coefficient (NTC) at a high temperature. The NBT–BZT nanopowders were successfully prepared by Pechini method. Their ceramics were sintered at 1100°C. The NBT–BZT ceramic exhibited a good linear relationship between logarithm of electrical resistivity (Inρ) and reciprocal of absolute temperature (1000/T) at 250°C–1050°C. The obtained ρ₆₀₀, ρ₉₀₀, and B_600/900 constants of the NBT–ZBT NTC thermistors are approximately 5.92 × 10⁶ to 3.01 × 10⁴ Ω cm, 7.03 × 10³ to 7.60 × 10² Ω cm and 2.3 × 10⁴-1.3 × 10⁴ K, respectively. The electrical characteristics can be tuned to the desired value by changing the Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃ content in the compound. The electrical conductivity in these compounds is due to the electron jumps between Ti³⁺ and Ti⁴⁺ and oxygen-ion conductivity. Results demonstrate a tremendous potential of the studied system for perovskite materials with NTC performance.
