Solid structural transformations

In this chapter shock modification of powders (their specific area, x-ray diffraction lines, and point defects) measurements via analytical electron microscopy, magnetization and Mossbauer spectroscopy shock activation of catalysis, solution, solid-state chemical reactions, sintering, and structural transformations enhanced solid-state reactivity. [Pg.160]

The measures of solid state reactivity to be described include experiments on solid-gas, solid-liquid, and solid-solid chemical reaction, solid-solid structural transitions, and hot pressing-sintering in the solid state. These conditions are achieved in catalytic activity measurements of rutile and zinc oxide, in studies of the dissolution of silicon nitride and rutile, the reaction of lead oxide and zirconia to form lead zirconate, the monoclinic to tetragonal transformation in zirconia, the theta-to-alpha transformation in alumina, and the hot pressing of aluminum nitride and aluminum oxide. [Pg.161]

Many metals and metallic alloys show martensitic transformations at temperatures below the melting point. Martensitic transformations are structural phase changes of first order which belong to the broader class of diffusion js solid-state phase transformations. These are structural transformations of the crystal lattice, which do not involve long-range atomic movements. A recent review of the properties and the classification of diffusionless transformations has been given by Delayed... [Pg.95]

Determination of the influence of crystal structure and reactant environment on deammination and dehydration processes is complicated by the several solid phase transformations that are a characteristic feature of many ammonium salts. Sublimation and/or melting may also occur. Deammination and dehydration steps are generally reversible. At high temperatures, however, particularly in the presence of a residual oxide... [Pg.195]

Even when complete miscibility is possible in the solid state, ordered structures will be favored at suitable compositions if the atoms have different sizes. For example copper atoms are smaller than gold atoms (radii 127.8 and 144.2 pm) copper and gold form mixed crystals of any composition, but ordered alloys are formed with the compositions AuCu and AuCu3 (Fig. 15.1). The degree of order is temperature dependent with increasing temperatures the order decreases continuously. Therefore, there is no phase transition with a well-defined transition temperature. This can be seen in the temperature dependence of the specific heat (Fig. 15.2). Because of the form of the curve, this kind of order-disorder transformation is also called a A type transformation it is observed in many solid-state transformations. [Pg.158]

This contribution reviews recent results on [Si(Pc)0]n (Pc = phthalocyaninato) solid state electrochemistry and the structural interconversions that accompany electrochemical doping/undoping processes. In aceto-nitrile/(a-Bu)4N+BF4, it is found that a significant overpotential accompanies initial oxidation of as-polymerized [Si(Pc)0]n. This can be associated with an ortho rhomb ic- te tr agonal structural transformation. [Pg.224]

Zinc biphenylenebis(phosphonate) was obtained with a linear chain rather than a layer structure when the same preparative method was used as for the zinc phenylenebis(phosphonate) layer structure. The presence of base allows a solid phase transformation from the linear chain to the layer structure. [Pg.1181]

Pure tin exhibits two common forms in the solid state — a gray tin and a white tin. At temperatures above 13°C or 55°F, the more stable form of tin is the denser white tin. At lower temperatures, the white tin is slowly converted to the gray form, a more powdery substance. Prolonged exposure to the cold winter temperatures of northern Europe contributed to the loss of integrity and disintegration of many cathedral organ pipes. As a consequence of the progressive nature of the structural transformation, as the white tin metallic surface becomes covered with... [Pg.113]

Four solid oxide electrolyte systems have been studied in detail and used as oxygen sensors. These are based on the oxides zirconia, thoria, ceria and bismuth oxide. In all of these oxides a high oxide ion conductivity could be obtained by the dissolution of aliovalent cations, accompanied by the introduction of oxide ion vacancies. The addition of CaO or Y2O3 to zirconia not only increases the electrical conductivity, but also stabilizes the fluorite structure, which is unstable with respect to the tetragonal structure at temperatures below 1660 K. The tetragonal structure transforms to the low temperature monoclinic structure below about 1400 K and it is because of this transformation that the pure oxide is mechanically unstable, and usually shatters on cooling. The addition of CaO stabilizes the fluorite structure at all temperatures, and because this removes the mechanical instability the material is described as stabilized zirconia (Figure 7.2). [Pg.239]

As a conclusion to this section, notice that a systematic description of ordering processes in alloys and of the superstructures which can be generated has been presented, for instance, by Khachaturyan (1983) in the framework of a theoretical treatment of structural transformation in solids. Two groups of superstructures have been specially considered substitutional and interstitial. [Pg.160]

As described above, most solid-state reactions are heterogeneous, in the sense that reactant and product are in different solid phases. In many of these, product crystals first appear as nuclei that grow at the expense of the parent crystal. On the other hand, there are some solid-state reactions that are not accompanied by a phase change and for which, therefore, analogy with a solid-state transformation is not plausible. Such reactions are of particular interest in several respects They make possible conversion of a single crystal of reactant to a single crystal of product they enable study, for example by X-ray diffraction, of the structures of the parent and product molecules as functions of the degree of conversion in more or less constant environments and one can elucidate from them the constraints that the parent crystal imposes both on the reaction pathway and on the conformation of the product. It is in connection with the latter that this subject is of particular interest in the present context. This class of processes has been discussed by Thomas (183). [Pg.184]

In this section, we discuss the high performance of the Rejo cluster/HZSM-5 catalyst, its active structure and dynamic structural transformation during the selechve catalysis, and the reaction mechanism for direct phenol synthesis from benzene and O2 on this novel catalyst [73, 107]. Detailed characterization and determination of active Re species have been conducted by XRD, Al solid-state MAS NMR, conventional XAFS and in situ time-resolved energy dispersive XAFS, which revealed the origin and prospects of high phenol selectivity on the novel Re/HZSM-5 catalyst [73]. [Pg.402]

Here we are concerned with changes in the solid structure of the waste form, such as devitrification and phase separation in waste-containing glasses. Thus we need to understand the mechanisms and kinetics of the solid-state transformations and the effect of these changes on the solubility of the wastes. Besides the transformations that might occur in the dry state, we also need to know what hydrothermal changes might occur. [Pg.338]

The second type of transformation, the reconstructive transformation involves dis-solution/reprecipitation the initial phase breaks down completely (dissolves) and the new phase precipitates from solution (for a review see Blesa Matijevic, 1989). There is, therefore, no structural relationship between the precursor and the product. In contrast to the solid-state transformation, the reconstructive process is... [Pg.365]

Lind [2] has defined radiation chemistry as the science of the chemical effects brought about by the absorption of ionizing radiation in matter. It should be distinguished from radiation damage which refers to structural transformation induced by irradiation, particularly in the solid state. The distinction is not always maintained, perhaps unconsciously, and sometimes both effects may be present simultaneously. Following a suggestion of M. Curie around 1910, that ions were responsible for the chemical effects of radioactive radiations, the symbol MjN was introduced to quantify the radiation chemical effect, where M is the number of molecules transformed (created or destroyed) and N is the number of ion pairs formed. Later, Burton [3] and others advocated the notation G for the number of species produced or destroyed per 100 eV (= 1.602 x 10 J) absorption of ionizing radiation. It was purposely defined as a purely experimental quantity independent of implied mechanism or assumed theory. [Pg.2]

A second-order structural transformation in La uC at 233 5°C was reported (118) in a thermal expansion study. The LajCu04 product was prepared at high temperature (1100°C) by the solid-state reaction of the corresponding binary oxides. The material was found to decompose above 1200°C with the loss of oxygen. Samples of La uC, prepared at 1200°C, then maintained at 750°C in vacuum, yielded products having the general composition La2Cu04.x, or... [Pg.62]
