Mullite (3Al2O32SiO2) can be fabricated by transient viscous sintering using composite particles which consist of inner cores of a-alumina and outer coatings of amorphous silica. Powder compacts prepared with these particles are sintered to almost full density at relatively low temperatures (~1300°C) and converted to dense, fine-grained mullite at higher temperatures (>1500°C) by reaction between the alumina core and the silica coating. In order to achieve complete mullitization, optimal conditions for coating alumina particles with amorphous silica must be achieved. Formation of amorphous silica can occur in solution (homogeneous nucleation) or on the surface of alumina (heterogeneous nucleation) depending on the degree of supersaturation of the solvent in which the particles are immersed. Successful coating of silica on alumina occurs when heterogeneous nucleation is promoted and homogeneous nucleation is suppressed. Therefore, one key to successful coating is an understanding of the factors such as pH and concentration that control silica nucleation in aqueous solutions. In the current work, we use TEM to determine the optimal conditions of this processing.

The article concerns the research specificity of model systems such as cocoa butter – palm olein, cocoa butter – sucrose and cocoa butter – glucose syrup by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. The researchers run experiments in the temperature range from –100 to –50°C at a heating rate of 10 °C/min. In the cacao butter – palm olein system an eutectic occurs with a palm olein content of 30.0 % indicating the limited solubility of palm olein in cocoa butter. In the cocoa butter – sucrose system, cocoa butter crystallizes as in the α-form (10,0– 30,0; 60.0–90.0 % MK), and as a mixture of α-and β-forms of MK (40.0; 50,0; 70,0 and 80.0 %). Sucrose stabilizes low-temperature polymorphic modifications of cocoa butter. In the cocoa butter – glucose syrup system, temperature of samples melting is 21-22 °C. This composition is promising for use as a filling of confectionery products and glazes production. In this regard, a man can use glucose syrup only in the candy cases production. The role of surfactants used for the formation and stabilization of cocoa butter polymorphs and increasing the thermal stability of the shock-lad without the introduction of palm stearin requires separate consideration.

Adhesion Work

TiB2/316L stainless steel composites were prepared by selective laser melting (SLM), and the adhesion work, interface energy and electronic structure of TiB2/γ-Fe interface in TiB2/316L stainless steel composites were investigated to explore the heterogeneous nucleation potential of γ-Fe grains on TiB2 particles using first principles. Six interface models composed of three different stacking positions and two different terminations were established. The B-terminated-top 2 site interface (“B-top 2”) was the most stable because of the largest adhesion work, smallest interfacial distances, and smallest interfacial energy. The difference charge density and partial density of states indicated that a large number of strong Fe-B covalent bonds were formed near the “B-top 2” interface, which increased the stability of interface. Fracture analysis revealed that the bonding strength of the “B-top 2” interface was higher than that of the Fe matrix, and it was difficult to fracture at the interface. The interface energy at the Ti-poor position in the “B-top 2” interface model was smaller than that of the γ-Fe/Fe melt, indicating that TiB2 had strong heterogeneous nucleation potency for γ-Fe.
