A High-temperature Powder Diffraction Furnace
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new high-temperature XRD instrument, utilizing multilayer optics and a custom furnace, has been developed to maximize sensitivity and minimize problems associated with sample displacement. This paper will describe the technical specifications of the new instrument, and will present temperature calibration with standard reference materials and measurement of phase evolution in an industrial glass batch as illustrations of instrument performance.

An in situ Study of NiTi Powder Sintering Using Neutron Diffraction
This study investigates phase transformation and mechanical properties of porous NiTi alloys using two different powder compacts (i.e., Ni/Ti and Ni/TiH2) by a conventional press-and-sinter means. The compacted powder mixtures were sintered in vacuum at a final temperature of 1373 K. The phase evolution was performed by in situ neutron diffraction upon sintering and cooling. The predominant pha...
متن کاملDirect Production of Ferrochrome by Segregation Reduction of Chromite in the Presence of Calcium Chloride
A solid reduction process is described whereby chromite is reduced with the help of calcium chloride to produce ferrochrome alloy powders with high metal recovery. The process involves segregation reduction of chromite using graphite as the reductant and calcium chloride as the segregation catalyst. Experiments were performed in the temperature range of 1200–1400 ◦C to evaluate the influences o...
متن کاملParallel solution combustion synthesis for combinatorial materials studies.
A parallel solution combustion synthesis technique was developed for combinatorial materials studies. The vigorous combustion reactions were successfully limited in the microreactors by using a substrate-net-mask microreactor system and the lowest adoptable furnace temperature. Using this technique, a luminescent materials library of Y3Al5O12/Tb(chi) was synthesized with the aid of an ink-jet d...

Measurements using a Pt-Rh heater strip in a high temperature X-ray diffractometer furnace show that the temperature indicated by a two-colour infra-red pyrometer directed at the upper surface of the strip is within fl “C of the temperature indicated by a Pt/Pt-lO%Rh (type S) thermocouple welded to the lower surface, over the temperature range from 600-l 100 “C. However, the temperature of a po...
