Abstract Radiation of a permeable laser beam into Si induces considerable modification of structures. Thermal stability of the laser-induced modified volumes (LIMV’s) was studied comprehensively by means of in situ and ex situ heating experiments using transmission electron microscopy. The behavior in the tail region of a LIMV can be understood by dislocation theory, while that of a void formed at the very focus of a laser beam cannot be understood easily.

The thermal stability of RuO2/Si(100) films in air was studied using ex situ synchrotron x-ray scattering. The (110) textured RuO2 film showed good thermal stability due to the low surface and strain energies. However, the RuO2 films of high strain and surface energies were transformed to three-dimensional islands during annealing up to 800 °C. We also studied, during the post annealing process, the interface roughness of BaxSr1−xTiO3 (BST)/RuO2/Si(100) and BST/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) structures comparatively, using in situ synchrotron x-ray scattering. The interfaces of the BST/RuO2/Si were thermally stable up to 500 °C, and the deterioration of the interfaces above 500 °C was attributed to the crystallization of amorphous BST film. Meanwhile, the interfaces of the BST/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si were significantly degraded even at the low temperature of 350 °C, mainly due to the formation of the Pt–Ti alloy and the Ti oxidation.

A new nanocomposite consisting of polyaniline (PANI), montmorillonite (MMT) and La3+ was developed via in-situ polymerization of aniline in the presence of MMT and La3+ through emulsion polymerization, and also a novel network structure consisting of nanowires had been shaped. The morphology and the chemical structure of the product were studied by transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The thermal property was exmined by mean of gravimetric analysis (TGA). The results indicated that PANI/MMT/ La3+ namocomposite has formed nanowires with diameter about 5 nm. The novel network structure consisting of nanowires has been shaped and overlapped towards certain direction. The formation of this network structure reveals that PANI molecules have been successfully inserted into the interlayer of MMT. Meanwhile, this conductivity network is believed to lead to the great improvement of the electrical conductivity for the nanocomposites. The FT-IR spectra reveal that PANI is obtained via in situ polymerization of the aniline monomer and there is a strong interaction between PANI and MMT. From XRD analysis, it can be also seen that the PANI molecules had been successfully intercalated into the galleries of the MMT. Moreover, the arrangement of PANI is more ordered in PANI/MMT/La3+ nanocomposite than that of pure PANI. From TGA curves, it is apparent that the introduction of MMT and rare-earth ions (La3+) exhibited a beneficial effect on the thermal stability of pure PANI. This markedly enhanced thermal stability of the nanocomposites can be ascribed to the MMT nanolayers acting as barriers for the degradation of PANI in the interlayer spacings and the inorganic nanoparticles trammeled the movement of the PANI molecule chains. They make the thermal decomposition of the nanocomposites at a disadvantage. As a consequence, the needed energy of the thermal decomposition increased, the thermal stability of nanocomposite increased. The paper offers a novel PANI/MMT/La3+ nanowire composites.

P3O5-10 pillared Mg/Al hydrotalcite (HTs) as a functional fire-retarding filler was successfully prepared by impregnation-reconstruction, where the HTs was used to prepare polypropylene (PP) and HTs composite (PP/HTs). Thermal decomposition was crucial for correctly identifying the thermal behavior for the PP/HTs, and studied using thermogravimetry (TG) at different heating rates. Based on single TG curves and Málek method, as well as 41 mechanism functions, the thermal decompositions of the PP/HTs composite and PP in nitrogen atmosphere were studied under non-isothermal conditions. The mechanism functions of the thermal decomposition reactions for the PP/HTs composite and PP were separately “chemical reaction F3” and “phase boundary reaction R2,” which were also in good agreement with corresponding experimental data. It was found that the addition of the HTs increased the apparent activation energy Ea of the PP/HTs comparing to the PP, which improved the thermal stability of the polypropylene. A difference in the set of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters was also observed between the PP/HTs and PP, particularly with respect to lower ΔS≠ value assigned to higher thermal stability of the PP/HTs composite.
