Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Ternary and Quaternary Alkali Metal Thiophosphates

Alahmary, Fatimah S. 05 1900 (has links)
The ongoing development of nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals such as coherent mid-IR sources focuses on various classes of materials such as ternary and quaternary metal chalcophosphates. In case of thiophosphates, the connection between PS4-tetrahedral building blocks and metals gives rise to a broad structural variety where approximately one third of all known ternary (A/P/S) and quaternary (A/M/P/S) (A = alkali metal, M = metal) structures are acentric and potential nonlinear optical materials. The molten alkali metal polychalcophosphate fluxes are a well-established method for the synthesis of new ternary and quaternary thiophosphate and selenophosphate compounds. It has been a wide field of study and investigation through the last two decades. Here, the flux method is used for the synthesis of new quaternary phases containing Rb, Ag, P and S. Four new alkali metal thiophosphates, Rb4P2S10, RbAg5(PS4), Rb2AgPS4 and Rb3Ag9(PS4)4, have been synthesized successfully from high purity elements and binary starting materials. The new compounds were characterized by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS), Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). These compounds show interesting structural variety and physical properties. The crystal structures feature 3D anionic framework built up of PS4 tetrahedral units and charge balanced by Ag and alkali metal cations. All prepared compounds are semiconductors with band gap between 2.3 eV to 2.6 eV and most of them are thermally stable up to 600ºC.

CMZP and Mg-doped Al2TiO5 Thin film Coatings for High Temperature Corrosion Protection of Si3N4 Heat Exchangers

Nguyen, Thierry Huu Chi 28 April 1998 (has links)
Silicon nitride (Si3N4) is a potentially good ceramic material for industrial heat exchangers. However, at elevated temperatures and in coal combustion atmospheres its lifetime is severely reduced by oxidation. To increase its corrosion resistance, the formation of a protective oxidation barrier layer was promoted by the deposition of oxide thin films. Homogeneous and crack-free oxide coatings of calcium magnesium zirconium phosphate (CMZP) and magnesium doped aluminum titanate (Mg-doped Al2TiO5) were successfully deposited on Si3N4 using the sol-gel and dip-coating technique. Coated and uncoated samples were then exposed to a sodium containing atmosphere at 1000*C for 360 hours to simulate typical industrial environment conditions. Structural post-exposure analyses based on weight loss measurements and mechanical tests indicated better corrosion resistance and strength retention for CMZP coated Si3N4 compared to as received and Mg-doped Al2TiO5 coated Si3N4. This difference was attributed to the protective nature of the corrosion layer, which in the case of CMZP, significantly impeded the inward diffusion of oxygen to the Si3N4 surface. / Master of Science

Mécanismes d'action des fines et des granulats de verre sur la réaction alcali-silice et la réaction pouzzolanique

Idir, Rachida January 2009 (has links)
Recycling composite glass with different colours in order to be manufactured into new glass products is at present not economically viable. Therefore, the search for new issues other than stockpile areas or dumping sites could be a serious opportunity. To a certain extent, one of the possible solutions is to use the recycled glass in manufacturing cements and in the preparation of concrete mixtures. However, it is essential to manage the two main behaviours that the glass can have when used in cement-based materials: (1) the use of glass as coarse aggregates reveals harmful behaviour related to alkali-silica reaction; (2) on the other hand, it can result in useful behaviour related to pozzolanic reaction if used as fine particles. Furthermore, the significant alkali content should not be overlooked as their mass corresponds to about 13% of the total mass of the glass and as they may activate the alkali-silica reaction. An experimental programme was conducted to provide answers to the various questions raised about the use of glass in cement-based materials. The first part of this work was primarily devoted to the evaluation of the reactive potential of glass in mortars (alkali and pozzolanic reactions). At this stage, nine classes of glass particles ranging from 3[mu]m to 2.5 mm were considered. Then, fine glass particles were used in order to counteract the negative effect of some classes of coarse aggregates having revealed alkali-reactive behaviour. The second part of this work was performed to study the mechanisms that could explain the behaviours of fine and coarse particles in aqueous and concentrated environments. Different answers have been proposed to explain the observed behaviour in terms of grain sizes of glass.

Modellering av svällande betong : Alkali-silikatreaktion (ASR) i en befintligturbininneslutning / Modeling of expanding concrete : Alkali silica reaction (ASR) to an existing turbine containment

Svensson, Björn January 2013 (has links)
För att bibehålla elnätet stabilt är det viktigt för elproducenterna attkunna möta samhällets behov av elkraft. Detta behov varierar beroendepå tid på dygnet och även av årstid. Att kunna samla energi då behovetär lågt, för att sedan utvinna och distribuera energi då behovet ökar ärdärför viktigt. Vattenkraft är en av de energikällor som är enklast attreglera. Denna energi är dessutom relativt miljövänlig. Att ha en stabiloch säker vattenkraft är därför viktigt för samhället.I detta examensarbete har vissa problem som kan uppstå i ettvattenkraftverkets studerats, närmare bestämt alkali-silikatreaktion ibetong. Denna reaktion framträder genom att betongen sväller. Tillföljd av detta kan konstruktionen spricka. Detta beror på att en gelbildas när alkalier och kisel reagerar med varandra. Denna gel kan taupp vatten och då svälla.En specifik vattenkraftstation har i detta examensarbete studeratsnärmare, nämligen Malgomaj kraftverk. Detta är en anläggning somligger i ett område där, till skillnad från övriga Sverige, det finnsbergarter som har en medelsnabb reaktion med avseende på alkalikiselreaktion.Att denna geografiska placering blir ett problem beror påatt det stenmaterial som finns att tillgå i vattenkraftstationens närhethar använts som ballast i anläggningens betongkonstruktion.I den vattenkraftstation som studeras har problem iakttagits på grundav svällningar av betongkonstruktionen kring turbinen. För att få enuppskattning om hur vattenkraftstationens deformationer i framtidenkommer att utbildas har en modell av problemområdet byggts uppmed hjälp av finita elementmetoden, en så kallad FEM-modell. Dennamodell kalibreras mot mätdata och ska sedan ligga till grund för enuppskattning av vattenkraftstationens livslängd.Resultatet från undersökningen i detta examensarbete visar attdeformationerna är små men betydande för vattenkraftstationensmöjlighet till att fortsätta sin energiproduktion. / To maintain a stable power grid, it is important for electricity producers to meetsociety's need for electricity. This need will vary depending on time of day and eventhe season. Being able to accumulate energy when demand is low, and regain energywhen demand increases, is therefore important. Hydropower is one of the energysources that are easiest to regulate. Having a stable and secure hydropower istherefore important for society.In this thesis one problem that can occur in a hydroelectric plant has been studied,namely alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete. This reaction causes the concrete toswell, due to a formation of gel when alkali and silicon react together.A specific hydropower station has been studied in detail, namely Malgomajhydropower plant. This is a facility that is located in an area where, unlike the rest ofSweden, there are stone materials that have a moderately rapid reaction with respectto the ASR.Problems for this hydroelectric power station have been observed because of swellingof the concrete structure surrounding the turbine. To get an estimate prognosis ofhow the hydropower plant will deform in the future, a finite element method-model(FEM-model) has be created of the problem area. This model is calibrated againstmeasured data and will then form the basis for an appreciation of the hydropowerstation's remaining lifetime.The results in this thesis show that the deformations are small but significant for thehydropower station's opportunity to continue its energy production.
