Este trabalho visa caracterizar a seqüência de precipitação do aço inoxidável ferrítico do tipo AISI 430 convencional, durante a etapa de laminação a quente. Esta caracterização foi realizada através do estudo de três condições industriais e de seis condições tratadas termicamente. Todas as amostras foram avaliadas por microscopia ótica e eletrônica de varredura, extração de precipitados e difração de raios-X do material como um todo e dos precipitados extraídos. Foi realizada a modelagem termodinâmica do aço utilizando-se o programa ThermoCalc® v.R aliado ao banco de dados TCFE2. Como meio de prever a cinética das transformações de fases, de modo superficial, foi realizado um ensaio de análise térmica diferencial com três taxas de resfriamento com redução progressiva (10°/min, 5°/min e 2°/min), sendo os resultados comparados com os resultados experimentais obtidos pelas demais técnicas empregadas. O aço AISI 430 convencional mostrou-se bifásico a alta temperatura, apresentando o campo bifásico (ferrita/austenita) entre 900°C e 1250°C. Após tratamentos térmicos por 5h nas temperaturas de 900°C, 1000°C e 1100°C, seguido de têmpera em água e partindo-se da condição laminado a quente e recozido (BQB), o aço apresentou microestrutura dúplex (ferrita/martensita). As amostras tratadas a 900°C e 1000°C apresentaram pequenas frações residuais de carbonetos do tipo M23C6. As amostras tratadas a 600°C, 700°C, e 800°C por 5h e temperadas em água mostraram-se ferríticas com presença de carboneto do tipo M23C6 com teores de carboneto decrescentes com o aumento da temperatura do tratamento térmico. As amostras da condição industrial e as amostras tratadas a 600°C, 700°C, 800°C e a 900°C apresentaram a presença de nitretos do tipo (Cr,Fe)2N, sendo que a amostra tratada a 900°C apresentou apenas resíduos deste nitreto, em pleno acordo com a termodinâmica computacional que prevê decomposição deste na temperatura de 866°C, indicando que a cinética de decomposição deste nitreto é lenta. A temperatura de precipitação do carboneto do tipo M23C6 rico em (Cr,Fe)23C6 foi avaliada entre 900°C e 1000°C. / This work aims to characterize the precipitation path of the conventional ferritic stainless steel AISI 430, during the hot rolling process. This characterization had been carried out with the study of three industrial conditions, and six thermal treated conditions. All the samples were evaluated by optical and scanning electron microscopy, by extraction of precipitates and X-Ray diffraction of the bulk material and of the extracted precipitates. It was done a thermodynamic modeling of the steel with the use of the ThermoCalc® v.R program and TCFE2 data base. In a way to determine the phase transformations kinetics, in a superficial way, it was carried out differential thermal analysis with three cooling rates progressively reduced (10°/min, 5°/min e 2°/min), all the results were compared wit h the experimental results got with the others techniques employed. The conventional AISI 430 steel is two-phase at high temperatures, showing a two-phase field (ferrite/austenite) between 900°C and 1250°C. After the thermal treatments for 5h, steel in the hot rolled and annealed (BQB) initial condition, at 900°C, 1000°C and 1100°C, followed by water quench, the steel showed a duplex microstructure (ferrite/martensite). The samples heat treated at 900°C and 1000°C showed a residual volumetric fraction of the M23C6 carbide. The samples heat treated for 5h at 600°C, 700°C and 800°C and water quenched showed a ferritic microstructure with the presence of M23C6 carbide, with its content decreasing with the heat treatment temperature increase. The samples in the industrial condition and the samples heat treated at 600°C, 700°C, 800°C and at 900°C showed a (Cr,Fe) 2N nitrite presence, the sample heat treated at 900°C showed only a residual volumetric fraction of it. This is in great deal with the computational thermodynamic modeling that predicts nitride decomposition at 866°C, indic ating that the nitrite decomposition kinetic is slow. The precipitation temperature of the M23C6 carbide rich in (Cr,Fe)23C6 was evaluated between 900°C and 1000°C.

L’obtention de nouvelles structures zéolithiques a été permise grâce à la diversification des conditions de synthèse, comme l’utilisation d’ions fluorures, la substitution partielle du silicium par du germanium ou l’ajout d’un agent structurant organique. Les travaux développés au cours de cette thèse se concentrent sur la synthèse de nouveaux solides microporeux zéolithiques possédants de larges à extra-larges pores (>10 unités TO4) à l’aide de nouvelles molécules organiques structurantes. Le travail de thèse se divise donc en deux étapes avec, dans un premier temps, la synthèse de molécules organiques originales (dérivées de la pyrrolidine) qui sont ensuite engagées en synthèse hydrothermale. Huit nouveaux structurants non commerciaux ont été élaborés qui ont permis d'obtenir divers matériaux déjà connus, parmi lesquels les zéolithes octadécasil (AST), ITQ-7 (ISV), ITQ-17 (BEC) et ITQ-21. L'utilisation des cations N,N-diméthylperhydro-dicyclopenta[b,d]pyrrolium et N,N-diméthyldicyclopentylammon-ium, ont permis la découverte de deux nouveaux silicogermanates dont l’un de topologie connue nommé clovérite (-CLO) et l’autre nommé Mu-43 présentant une topologie de charpente inédite. Chacun de ces deux matériaux possède un système tridimensionnel de canaux avec des ouvertures à 12 atomes T (Mu-43) ou à 20 atomes T (clovérite). / Several synthetic strategies have emerged such as the use of fluoride, the introduction of germanium and the development of new organic structure directing agents (SDAs) to obtain zeolites, which have led to significant structural diversity. Previous works at the laboratory enable us to develop a new range of non-commercial SDAs that have been designed to produce novel extra-large pores zeolites (>10 TO4 units). Elaborated organic structure directing agents (pyrrolidine derivatives) were first synthesized by a concise route and then engaged in hydrothermal synthesis. Eight non-commercial and original SDAs were produced which led to the synthesis of several known zeolites such as octadecasil (AST), ITQ-7 (ISV), ITQ-17 (BEC) and ITQ-21. The use of the cations N,N-dimethylperhydro-dicyclopenta[b,d]pyrrolium and N,N-dimethyldicyclopentyl-ammonium, allowed us to discover two new silicogermanates named cloverite of known topology -CLO and the novel one Mu 43. Each of these two materials possesses a three-dimensional channel system with 12-membered ring pores (Mu-43) or 20-membered ring pores (cloverite).

Technological advances results in the fact that quite a large number of electronic equipment interacts with its environment leading to the malfunction of the devices. This brings about the necessity of using proper electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbers/shields to avoid such interactions. In order to absorb EM waves in a large frequency band from several MHz to GHz, barium hexaferrite (BaHF) ceramics which are produced as textured ceramics as well as in multilayered form can be used. Textured ceramics are processed by tape casting using templated grain growth (TGG) phenomenon. In order to obtain textured ceramics, BaHF powders and platelets are required as raw materials in such a way that during sintering small size powders are directioned by large platelet surfaces. In this study, ferrite powders were synthesized by mixed oxide technique while the platelets were produced by both molten salt synthesis (MSS) and reactive templated grain growth (RTGG) methods. In the case of platelet synthesis by MSS, effects of calcination temperature and time as well as type and composition of the flux on the formation and morphology of platelets were investigated based on the XRD and SEM results. Studies have shown that KCl flux led to the formation of sharper platelet morphology, while NaCl resulted in more round shapes. However, extent of BaHF formation in the case of NaCl was higher when compared to KCl flux due to its higher wettability characteristic, and hence faster interaction with the raw materials. Since the aspect ratio of the synthesized platelets was only ca. 2-4, these platelets were not efficient for further TGG studies. Alternatively, BiFeO3 (BiF) particles having ~30-40 &mu / m average size were synthesized as seed crystals for the synthesis of BaHF platelets by RTGG method. After the washing of these platelets with dilute HNO3, pure BaHF powders and platelets were directed by tape casting which was followed by sintering using TGG phenomenon. Degree of achieved texturing in the processed ceramics was studied using Rietveld analysis, pole figure measurement and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD).

Aluminas have had some form of chemical and industrial use throughout history. For little over a century corundum (α-Al2O3) has been the most widely used and known of the aluminas. The emerging metastable aluminas, including the γ, δ, η, θ, κ, β, and χ polymorphs, have been growing in importance. In particular, γ-Al2O3 has received wide attention, with established use as a catalyst and catalyst support, and growing application in wear abrasives, structural composites, and as part of burner systems in miniature power supplies. It is also growing in importance as part of the feedstock for aluminium production in order to affect both the adsorption of hydrogen fluoride and the feedstock solubility in the electrolytic solution. However, much ambiguity surrounds the precise structure of γ-Al2O3. Without proper knowledge of the structure, understanding the properties, dynamics and applications will always be less than optimal. The aim of this research was to contribute towards settling this ambiguity. This work was achieved through extensive computer simulations of the structure, based on interatomic potentials with refinements of promising structures using density functional theory (DFT), and a wide range of supporting experiments. In addition to providing a more realistic representation of the structure, this research has also served to advance knowledge of the evolution of the structure with changing temperature and make new insights regarding the location of hydrogen in γ-Al2O3. / Both the molecular modelling and Rietveld refinements of neutron diffraction data showed that the traditional cubic spinel-based structure models, based on m Fd3 space group symmetry, do not accurately describe the defect structure of γ-Al2O3. A more accurate description of the structure was provided using supercells of the cubic and tetragonal unit cells with a significant number of cations on c symmetry positions. These c symmetry based structures exhibited diffraction patterns that were characteristic of γ-Al2O3. The first three chapters of this Thesis provide a review of the literature. Chapter One provides a general introduction, describing the uses and importance of the aluminas and the problems associated with determining the structure of γ-Al2O3. Chapter Two details the research that has been conducted on the structure of vi γ-Al2O3 historically. Chapter Three describes the major principles behind the computational methods employed in this research. In Chapter Four, the specific experimental and computational techniques used to investigate the structure of γ-Al2O3 are described. All preparation conditions and parameters used are provided. Chapter Five describes the methodology employed in computational and experimental research. The examination of the ~ 1.47 billion spinel-based structural possibilities of γ-Al2O3, described using supercells, and the selection of ~ 122,000 candidates for computer simulation, is detailed. This chapter also contains a case study of the structure of κ-Al2O3, used to investigate the applicability of applying interatomic potentials to solving complex structures, where many possibilities are involved, and to develop a systematic procedure of computational investigation that could be applied to γ-Al2O3. Chapters Six to Nine present and discuss the results from the experimental studies. / Preliminary heating trials, performed to determine the appropriate preparation conditions for obtaining a highly crystalline boehmite precursor and an appropriate calcination procedure for the systematic study of γ-Al2O3, were presented in Chapter Six. Chapter Seven details the investigation of the structure from a singletemperature case. Several known structural models were investigated, including the possibility of a dual-phase model and the inclusion of hydrogen in the structure. It was demonstrated that an accurate structural model cannot be achieved for γ-Al2O3 if the cations are restricted to spinel positions. It was also found that electron diffraction patterns, typical for γ-Al2O3, could be indexed according to the I41/amd space group, which is a maximal subgroup of m Fd3 . Two models were presented which describe the structure more accurately; Cubic-16c, which describes cubic γ-Al2O3 and Tetragonal-8c, which describes tetragonal γ-Al2O3. The latter model was found to be a better description for the γ-Al2O3 samples studied. Chapter Eight describes the evolution of the structure with changing calcination temperature. Tetragonal γ-Al2O3 was found to be present between 450 and 750 °C. The structure showed a reduction in the tetragonal distortion with increasing temperature but at no stage was cubic γ-Al2O3 obtained. Examination of the progress of cation migration indicates the reduction in the tetragonal nature is due to ordering within inter-skeletal oxygen layers of the unit cell, left over from the breakdown of the hydroxide layers of boehmite when the transformation to γ-Al2O3 occurred. Above 750 °C, δ-Al2O3 was not observed, but a new phase was identified and designated γ.-Al2O3. / The structure of this phase was determined to be a triple cell of γ-Al2O3 and is herein described using the 2 4m P space group. Chapter Nine investigates the presence of hydrogen in the structure of γ-Al2O3. It was concluded that γ-Al2O3 derived from highly crystalline boehmite has a relatively well ordered bulk crystalline structure which contains no interstitial hydrogen and that hydrogen-containing species are located at the surface and within amorphous regions, which are located in the vicinity of pores. Expectedly, the specific surface area was found to decrease with increasing calcination temperature. This trend occurred concurrently with an increase in the mean pore and crystallite size and a reduction in the amount of hydrogen-containing species within the structure. It was also demonstrated that γ-Al2O3 derived from highly crystalline boehmite has a significantly higher surface area than expected, attributed to the presence of nano-pores and closed porosity. The results from the computational study are presented and discussed in Chapter Ten. Optimisation of the spinel-based structural models showed that structures with some non-spinel site occupancy were more energetically favourable. However, none of the structural models exhibited a configuration close to those determined from the experimental studies. Nor did any of the theoretical structures yield a diffraction pattern that was characteristic of γ-Al2O3. This discrepancy between the simulated and real structures means that the spinel-based starting structure models are not close enough to the true structure of γ-Al2O3 to facilitate the derivation of its representative configuration. / Large numbers of structures demonstrate migration of cations to c symmetry positions, providing strong evidence that c symmetry positions are inherent in the structure. This supports the Cubic-16c and Tetragonal-8c structure models presented in Chapter Seven and suggests that these models are universal for crystalline γ-Al2O3. Optimisation of c symmetry based structures, with starting configurations based on the experimental findings, resulted in simulated diffraction patterns that were characteristic of γ-Al2O3.

Synthèse et hydratation de la phase ye’elimite Les ciments riches en ye’elimite ou les ciments sulfoalumineux (CSA) sont commercialisés pour la préparation des bétons à compensation de retrait. De plus, les ciments CSA présentent des caractéristiques écologiques associées à leur production, notamment une réduction de l'empreinte CO2. Le comportement expansif des ciments CSA est principalement contrôlé par la quantité de la phase ettringite, cette dernière est produite lors de l’hydratation de la phase importante, la ye’elimite [Ca4 (Al6O12)SO4]. Cette thèse présente, d’une part, les conditions optimales pour la synthèse de la phase ye’elimite la plus pure possible par des réactions à l’état solide, et d’autre part, une description fondamentale des mécanismes de formation de cette phase. Un autre aspect de ce travail vise à étudier l’influence de la finesse et de l’addition d’acide citrique sur la dissolution de la phase ye’elimite. Pour l’étude de l’effet de la finesse, une poudre fine et pure de ye’elimite a été synthétisée par des méthodes sol-gel, ces dernières méthodes de synthèse ont été développées d’une manière originale dans notre thèse. Plusieurs techniques expérimentales ont été réalisées pour mener à bien les différents aspects de la présente thèse, à savoir l'analyse quantitative par DRX (méthode Rietveld), l’analyse thermique (ATG, ATD, et dilatométrie), MEB (imagerie en rétrodiffusé et cartographie EDS), l’analyse BET, l’analyse granulométrique par diffraction laser, et l’analyse d'images (porosité 2D et analyse granulométrique 2D). / A Synthesis and hydration of ye’elimite Ye’elimite-rich cements or calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cements are commercialized to prepare shrinkage compensation and self-stressing concretes. Moreover, CSA cements show environmentally friendly characteristics associated to their production, which include reduced CO2 footprint. The expansive behavior of CSA cements is mainly controlled by ettringite amount, produced upon hydration of the key-phase, ye’elimite [Ca4(Al6O12)SO4]. This work presents, on one hand, the optimal conditions for the synthesis highly pure ye’elimite by solid state reactions, and on the other hand, it shows a fundamental description of ye’elimite formation mechanisms. Another aspect of the study encompasses the influence of fineness and citric acid addition on ye’elimite phase dissolution, then on hydrates composition of lab made ye’elimite-rich cement. For the fineness effect study, a highly fine and pure ye’elimite was originally synthetized by sol-gel methods. Various experimental techniques were performed to conduct the different aspects of the present study, namely XRD-Quantitative Rietveld analysis, Thermal analysis (TGA, DTG, DTA and Dilatometry), SEM (BSE imaging and EDS mapping), BET analysis, PSD by laser diffraction, and Image analysis (2D porosity and 2D PSD).
