<p>The synthesis of new graphene-type materials (<i>via</i> polymerization of porphyrin macrocycles) through a simple chemical synthetic pathway (at RT) has been demonstrated. This newly synthesized material can be dispersed in water with an average sheet size of few microns and with single layer thickness. As the porphyrin contains four inner ring nitrogen atoms thus the presented polymeric material will be close analogous of N-doped graphene. Porphyrin as the key component to synthesize layered graphene type continuous 2D structure has never been attempted before. </p> <p> </p>

In this paper, four general directions are described to make evaluations and their resource potential; those are coal structure and coal level, gas content of deep coalbed, the coalbed thickness and distribution and the buried depth of coalbed. Coalfields of the study area are mainly Permian and Carboniferous coal seam of Shanxi Formation coal and Benxi group 11 # coal, coal seam depth 1370-1812m. No. 3 coal-seam average layer thickness of 1.6 m, the monolayer most 2 m thick; No. 11 coal-seam in the average layer thickness of 3 m, single-layer thickness of 4.5 m. Predict the amount of coal resources of 17.3 one hundred million t. Predict coal-bed methane resources of 27.68 billion cubic reserve abundance of 104 million square / km2 in. The exploration results show that this region has good development prospects.

Multilayer and superlattice coatings of TiN/CrN coating are deposited on Si(100) substrate at different modulation wavelength by reactive unbalanced magnetron sputtering and characterized using X-ray diffraction, nanoindentation, AFM. Nano-roughness of films is in good correlation with hardness and modulus and this effect has been used for optimization of deposition parameters. Preliminary results have shown slightly better mechanical properties for multilayered TiN/CrN coatings compared to single layer TiN and CrN coatings. The XRD results have shown a preferred orientation in &lt;100&gt; direction for TiN/CrN multilayer coatings at modulation wavelengths below 80 nm. At 100 nm layer thickness, TiN revealed small amount of crystals with &lt;111&gt; orientation and their content significantly increases with increase in layer thickness while CrN layers only show preferred orientation of &lt;100&gt;. Multilayered coatings exhibit better mechanical properties due to presence of large number of interfaces which act as barrier to dislocations. Fracture toughness and tribological properties of these coatings are also expected to show significant improvement and the investigation in this area is under progress.

In this paper, influence of single-layer thickness on residual stresses in Sm2Zr2O7/YSZ thermal barrier coating was analyzed by finite element method. Results show that the radial stress remains stable in x range 0-12mm, and it decreases abruptly at edge of the sample. The distribution of axial stress resembles that of radial stress, the shear stress increase abruptly at edge of sample. In three typical residual stresses, radial stress has the highest value, axial stress and shear stress can be ignored. The best thickness combination of Sm2Zr2O7/YSZ TBCs should be 0.1mm-NiCoCrAlY layer, 0.05-0.1mm -TGO, 0.1mm-YSZ and 0.9mm-Sm2Zr2O7

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) can produce high-performance metal parts with complex structures. However, it’s difficult to control the processing parameters, because many factors involves. From the perspective of the molten pool, the study focuses on the effects of processing parameters, including scanning speed, laser power, scanning space, layer thickness, and scanning strategies, on the surface quality, the balling effect, the density of SLM parts, by conducting experiments of single track, single layer and block forming. The results show that the quality of the molten pool is affected by laser power and scanning speed. Scanning drove in the strategy of “jumping and turning”,a smooth surface and a less balling effect will be obtained. The thicker the powder layer is, the lower density will be obtained. The optimal parameters from series of experiments are: laser power of 98W; scanning speed of 90mm/s; scanning space of 0.07mm; layer thickness of 0.1mm; and scanning strategy of “jumping and turning”.

PurposeTo investigate the effects of the infra‐red power level on sintering behaviour in the high speed sintering (HSS) process.Design/methodology/approachSingle‐layer parts were produced using the HSS process, in order to determine the effect of the infra‐red power level on the maximum achievable layer thickness, and the degree of sintering. The parts were examined using both optical microscopy and contact methods.FindingsIt was initially expected that an increase in the infra‐red lamp powder might allow an increase in the depth of sintering that could be achieved, as a result of increased thermal transfer through the powder. However, results in fact indicated that there is a maximum layer thickness that can be achieved, as a result of part shrinkage in the z direction. Optical microscopy images have shown that a greater degree of sintering occurs at higher power levels, which would be expected to correspond to an improvement in the mechanical properties of the parts produced. These images also indicate that the radiation absorbing material forms in small “islands” on the powder bed surface. As sintering progresses, these islands begin to merge; this occurs to a greater extent at higher infra‐red lamp powers.Research limitations/implicationsThese results are based only on single layer parts. Further work will examine the sintering characteristics of multiple layer parts.Practical implicationsResults have shown that, whilst it is not possible to increase the achievable layer thickness of the parts produced by modifying the infra‐red lamp power, the degree of sintering can be improved greatly by increasing the power.Originality/valueHSS is an entirely new process which is currently still under development; the results presented here will directly impact the direction of further development and research into this process.

ABSTRACTThe thermally induced shape instability of Fe/Au, Fe/Ag, and Nb/Cu multilayer systems during heat treatments was investigated. The disintegration temperature of these systems decreases with decreasing single-layer thickness. Up to a critical thickness, the disintegration temperature is proportional to the reciprocal layer thickness. The driving force of this process is related to the interfacial stress and the local variation of the interface curvature. After heat treatment, spherically shaped Fe and Nb nanoparticles, located in chains perpendicular to the substrate, were observed and depicted by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray microscopy (XRM).
