AbstractPt-Sc alloys with the γ-γ′ microstructure are proposed as a basis for a new generation of Pt-based superalloys for ultrahigh-temperature applications. This alloy system was identified on the basis of first-principles calculations. Here we discuss the prospects of the Pt-Sc alloy system on the basis of calculated elastic properties, phonon spectra, and defect formation energies.

The structure evolution and oxidation behavior of ZrB2–SiC composites in air from room temperature to ultrahigh temperature were investigated using furnace testing, arc jet testing, and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The oxide structure changed with the increasing temperature. SiC content has no apparent influence on the evolution of structure during the oxidation of ZrB2–SiC below 1600 °C. However, the evolution of structure for ZrB2–SiC above 1800 °C was significantly affected by the SiC content. The formation of the SiC depleted layer in the ZrB2–SiC system not only depends on the surrounding conditions of pressure and temperature but also on the structure distribution of the SiC in the ZrB2 matrix. The apparent recrystallization of the ZrO2 occurred above 1800 °C. The SiC content should be controlled at ∼16% in the ZrB2–SiC system for the ultrahigh-temperature application. The mechanisms of the structure evolution during oxidation in air were also analyzed.

AbstractA novel polymer nanocomposite has been synthesized in the present study using a bio-polymer Karaya and inorganic SiO2 nanoparticles via sonication for application as a fracturing fluid in stimulating oil and gas wells. Gum Karaya (KG), an acidic polysaccharide, has been investigated for its structural, morphological and rheological characteristics, and the results have been compared with prepared KG–SiO2 nanocomposite at different SiO2 dosing for improved structure, viscoelasticity, viscosity and temperature stability. Steady shear rheology test depicted pseudoplastic nature, while oscillatory study confirms gel characteristics and weak dependence of storage and loss moduli on frequency for all the prepared samples. Dominance of elasticity over viscous nature of the gel assures efficient solid transporting/suspending capability. Experimental results showed that the rheological characteristics of the synthesized gel is comparable with Guar and CMHPG over the shear and temperature ranges under study and suitable for temperatures above 150 °C and pressure conditions. Also, polymer breaking and sandpack regained permeability tests proved synthesized gels to be a cleaner with less residue as compared to the other two.
