A high temperature stage was designed for mounting onto a computer controlled four circle X-ray texture goniometer. This technique allowed to conduct in situ texture measurement, i.e. the determination of the texture evolution during rather than subsequent to annealing. The device was employed for temperatures up to 1000°C.The furnace consisted of a resistance wire of Pt30Rh, which was isolated against the specimen with Al2O3 glue. The furnace with the specimen was covered by a hemispherical KaptonTM foil. Inside the hemisphere a reducing gas atmosphere was used to avoid oxidation of the sample surface.

AbstractA computer-controlled high temperature Guinier diffractometer system for accurate determination of lattice thermal expansion is described. A critical test of the system using α-Al2O3 (0.3μ polishing alumina) showed close agreement with the single crystal expansion data of Wachtman et al. Lattice thermal expansion of cordierite doped with the following dopants: Ge+4, P+5, Zn+2, Li+1 and Ca+2 was investigated. Of these the Li+1 at the 5% level (5% of Si+4 replaced by Li+1 + Al+3) produced the largest decrease in mean lattice expansion.

The distribution of liquid at the semi solid state is one of the most important parameters for steel thixoforging. It has a great influence on the viscosity of the material, on the flows and finally on the final shape and mechanical properties of the thixoforged parts. Both ex situ and in situ 3D X-ray microtomography characterizations have been carried out to determine the quantity and localization of liquid at high temperature of M2 steel slugs. Microtomography was first performed ex situ at room temperature on samples heated and quenched from semi-solid state. The specimens were also scanned in situ directly at high temperature. The obtained results have been compared to 2D observations using EDS technique in SEM on heated and quenched specimens. They showed a good correlation making both approaches very efficient for the study of the liquid zones at the semi-solid state

An crystal-growth technique for single crystal x-ray structure analysis of high-pressure forms of hydrogen-bonded crystals is proposed. We used alcohol mixture (methanol: ethanol = 4:1 in volumetric ratio), which is a widely used pressure transmitting medium, inhibiting the nucleation and growth of unwanted crystals. In this paper, two kinds of single crystals which have not been obtained using a conventional experimental technique were obtained using this technique: ice VI at 1.99 GPa and MgCl<sub>2</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O at 2.50 GPa at room temperature. Here we first report the crystal structure of MgCl2·7H2O. This technique simultaneously meets the requirement of hydrostaticity for high-pressure experiments and has feasibility for further in-situ measurements.
