Many factors need to be considered when new alloys are created, and further knowledge of the corrosion process would be of great use for companies worldwide. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate if X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, XPS, can be used to characterise and quantify corrosion products. With the goal to develop a method that can be used for further studies to increase our understanding of the corrosion process. Aluminium alloy AA3003 was subjected to an immersion corrosion test in an acidified salt solution for different periods of time and the produced chemical compounds were characterised using XPS. The results revealed a direct connection between corrosion time and formed product, which after characterisation proved to be aluminium hydroxide, Al(OH)3. It was concluded that XPS can be used for corrosion studies and is a method that shows great potential and should be further developed. Sammanfattning I metallindustrin är korrosion ett ständigt förekommande problem som måste tas i beaktande vid design av metallprodukter. Många faktorer är avgörande när nya legeringar utvecklas och en djupare kunskap om korrosionsprocessen och dess mekanismer är av stort värde för företag världen över. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att undersöka huruvida röntgen-fotoelektron- spektroskopi, XPS, kan användas för att kvalitativt och kvantitativt karakterisera de korrosionsprodukter som bildas vid korrosion. Med målet att presentera en metod som kan användas för att vidare undersöka och öka vår förståelse för korrosionsprocessen. Aluminiumlegering AA3003 utsattes för accelererad korrosion i en surgjord saltlösning under varierande tid och korrosionsprodukter karakteriserades med XPS. Resultatet påvisade direkt korrelation mellan korrosionstid och mängd produkt. Korrosionsprodukten visade sig vara aluminiumhydroxid, Al(OH)3, och med det i åtanke kunde slutsatsen dras att XPS kan användas vid studier av korrosion. Den utvärderade metoden visar stor potential och detta examensarbete öppnar upp för vidare forskning som kan komma att öka förståelsen för korrosionsprocessen och hur den kan kontrolleras. iii iv Acknowledgements This master thesis was performed at Linköping University in cooperation with Gränges R&I during the spring of 2018.

  • Isomorphous Substitution of Aluminium for Silicon in Tobermoritic Structure
    Isomorphous Substitution of Aluminium for Silicon in Tobermoritic Structure. I. The Mixtures of Different Forms of Silicon Dioxide and of Different Compounds of Aluminium J. PETROVIÖ, V. RUSNÁK and L. ŠTEVULA Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava 9 Received July 2, 1968 The isomorphous substitution of Al(III) for Si(IV) in tobermoritic structure was examined by X-ray phase analysis and DTA. It has been found that the extent of the substitution depends on the materials used. The samples were prepared using different forms of silica-either ^-quartz, quartz-glass, Si02-gel or aerosil. Gibbsite, boehmite, dehydrated kaolinite, kaolinite, corundum and 7-AI2O3 were used as sources of aluminium. The samples were heated in an autoclave at 150, 180 and 200°C for 10, 24 and in some cases for 48 hours. Tobermorite can be synthesized from calcium oxide and silica under hydrothermal conditions. Up to temperatures of about 110°C it is stable, at higher temperatures and under hydrothermal conditions it is formed as an unstable compound. When the reaction is allowed to proceed for a longer time, or when it takes place at higher tem­ perature, another stable calcium hydrosilicate arises. At lower temperature a calcium hydrosilicate with tobermoritic structure is formed. It has been found that tobermori­ te is produced on autoclaving building materials containing lime and some materials with high SÍO2 content. It is also formed from anhydrous dicalcium silicates in the course of setting of cement. Under different conditions, compounds with tobermoritic structure arise which, however, differ in the amount or lime and water in the molecu­ le, as well as in the arrangement of the structure — e.g.

  • Sintering of Aluminum Powder with Microwave
    ISSN (Online) 2393-8021 ISSN (Print) 2394-1588 IARJSET International Advanced Research Journal in Science, Engineering and Technology Vol. 6, Issue 9, September 2019 Sintering of Aluminum Powder with Microwave Imad ul Iman Chikkodi1 Student, Electronics & Communication, KLE Dr. M.S. Sheshgiri College of Engineering & Technology, Belgaum, India1 Abstract: Sintering or frittage is the process of compacting and forming a solid mass of material by heat or pressure without melting it to the point of liquefaction. Sintering happens naturally in mineral deposits or as a manufacturing process used with metals, ceramics, plastics, and other materials. Sintering happens naturally in mineral deposits or as a manufacturing process used with metals, ceramics, plastics, and other materials. The atoms in the materials diffuse across the boundaries of the particles, fusing the particles together and creating one solid piece. Because the sintering temperature does not have to reach the melting point of the material, sintering is often chosen as the shaping process for materials with extremely high melting points such as tungsten and molybdenum. The study of sintering in metallurgy powder-related processes is known as powder metallurgy. An example of sintering can be observed when ice cubes in a glass of water adhere to each other, which is driven by the temperature difference between the water and the ice. Examples of pressure-driven sintering are the compacting of snowfall to a glacier, or the forming of a hard snowball by pressing loose snow together. Keywords: Sintering, Aluminium, Silicone Carbide, Microwave Sintering I. INTRODUCTION Most, if not all, metals can be sintered. This applies especially to pure metals produced in vacuum which suffer no surface contamination.
