Microstructure et usinabilité d'alliages de titane béta-métastable

Titanium has become in recent years an interesting material in many applications that require a combination of high mechanical properties and low density. It has the peculiarity of undergoing an allotropic transformation at 882°C. Below this temperature, ...

Graphene nanoplatelets promoted CoO-based catalyst for low temperature CO2 methanation reaction

Andreas Züttel, Thi Ha My Pham, Youngdon Ko, Liping Zhong

Methanation of CO2 is an important reaction for reducing CO2 emissions in a power-to-gas system. Compared to cobalt supported on gamma-Al2O3, cobalt supported on graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) showed significantly better performance for CO2 methanation. Cob ...

Nanoindentation of embedded particles

Andreas Mortensen, Alejandra Inés Slagter, Joris Pierre Everaerts

We address the effect of elastic inhomogeneity on elastic modulus and hardness determinations made by depth-sensing indentations performed on individual particles embedded within a matrix of different elastic modulus. Finite element simulations and nanoind ...

Stable Ta2O5 nanotubes decorated by PbS by the SILAR method for photocatalytic dye degradation

Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

Tantalum oxide Ta2O5 nanotubes (NTs) were prepared by electrochemical anodization and were decorated with lead sulfide nanoparticles PbS (NPs) by Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction commonly known as the SILAR method. The PbS NPs/Ta2O5 NTs were ...

Simple shear extrusion versus equal channel angular pressing: A comparative study on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an Mg alloy

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Aryan Rezaei Rad

Two severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques of simple shear extrusion (SSE) and equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) were employed to process an extruded Mg -6Gd -3Y -1.5Ag (wt%) alloy at 553 K for 1, 2, 4 and 6 passes. The microstructural evolutions ...

Micromechanics of oxide inclusions in ferrous alloys

Alejandra Inés Slagter

Oxide inclusions are inevitably present in steel as a direct consequence of the steelmaking process; as a result, a cubic centimetre of modern steel will generally contain about a million of these hard and brittle micrometre-sized ceramic particles. Inclus ...

Optimization of X-mode electron cyclotron current drive in high-electron-temperature plasma in the EAST tokamak

Joan Decker, Chunmin Zhang, Fang Liu

A discharge with electron temperature up to 14 keV has been achieved in EAST. Analysis of the electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) efficiency at high electron temperature under EAST parameters is presented using C3PO/LUKE code. Simulation results show t ...

Room-temperature strength of the interfacial bond between silica inclusions and iron

Andreas Mortensen, Alejandra Inés Slagter, David Hernandez Escobar, Sergio Perosanz Amarillo

The strength of the interface between iron (Fe) and individual spherical silica (SiO2) inclusions of 5 +/- 1 mu m diameter is measured by means of in-situ micro-cantilever bending tests conducted under displacement control within a scanning electron micros ...

Ultrafast control of emergent quantum matter probed by electron microscopy

Benoît Guilhem Michel Binh Truc

In the quest for controlling materials' properties, light as an external stimulus has a special place as it can create new states of matter and enable their ultrafast manipulation. In particular, spintronics, an exciting emergent field relying on the elect ...

Imaging Radial Distribution Functions of Complex Particles by Relayed Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon, Pierrick Berruyer

The physical properties of many modern multi-component materials are determined by their internal microstructure. Tools capable of characterizing complex nanoscale architectures in composite materials are, therefore, essential to design materials with targ ...
