Afield ion atom probe study has been made of a low carbon steel after furnace cooling and rapid quenchingfrom 700°C. Marked segregation of carbon to the boundaries was observed after furnace cooling, but not after rapid quenching. From comparison of previous and present results, it is concluded that the ky value of a steel can be related to the interstitial impurity content (mainly carbon) at the grain boundaries. Heat treatments that, encourage grain boundary segregation of interstitials will result in steels having a high ky value.MSTj1569
To co-fire with commercial LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) materials at
850oC ~ 880 oC, different contents of B2O3 were added to the Bi2O3-ZnO-Nb2O5 (BZN) ceramics.
The dielectric properties of BZN ceramics sintered at low temperatures were studied. According to
the test results, the cubic phase of BZN was transformed into orthorhombic in all the test materials.
A BiNbO4 phase was formed in test materials with 2 ~ 5 wt% of B2O3 addition. The BiNbO4 phase
was inhibited by extra ZnO addition. The phase transformation of cubic BZN was controlled during
the synthesis process of cubic and orthorhombic ZnO-Nb2O5 phase with excess ZnO content. The
Cubic and orthorhombic phases of BZN could coexist and be sintered densely at 850 oC/2hr.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
