In this paper, a deposition feature of a SiC:H films deposited by a RF sputtering system and a effect on the hardness of the films with various deposition conditions are investigated, and the effects of the silicon on a C:H are studied. It follows from the results that the properties of hardness can be changed with the depositing conditions. An increase of silane in the gas phase allows to deposit a SiC:H having tetrahedral structure. The sets of deposition conditions by which the different types of a SiC:H films can be deposited are obtained.

The Pr(1+x)Ba(2-x)Cu(3)O(7+/-delta) solid solution was investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction combined with Rietveld analysis. A Pr123 single phase could be synthesized under Pr-rich conditions by sintering at 950 degreesC in air. The solubility range of Pr(1+x)Ba(2-x)Cu(3)O(7+/-delta) solid solution is 0.08 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.80. The structure of Pr(1+x)Ba(2-x)Cu(3)O(7+/-delta) for 0.08 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.30 is orthorhombic. The structure transforms into tetragonal for 0.30 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.80. To form the Pr123 single phase, the Ba sites in the Pr123 structure must have partial Pr ions, and the least amount is x = 0.08. Ba ions cannot occupy the sites of Pr ions. In the Pr123 structure, Ca ions can replace Pr ions; the highest value is x = 0.4 in the PrBa(2-x)Ca(x)Cu(3)O(7+/-delta) system under our experimental conditions. However, Ca ions cannot replace B a ions. The ionic radius plays a more important role than the chemical properties in the substitution between Pr, Ba and Ca ions in the Pr123 structure.

In this paper, preparation of nano-biphasic calcium phosphate (nBCP), mechanical behavior and load-bearing of poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and PLGA/nBCP are presented. The nBCP with composition of 63/37 (w/w) HA/β-TCP (hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate) was produced by heating of bovine bone at 700°C. Composite scaffolds were made by using PLGA matrix and 10-50 wt% nBCP powders as reinforcement material. All scaffolds were prepared by thermally induced solid-liquid phase separation (TIPS) at -60°C under 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) vacuum. The results of elastic modulus testing were adjusted with Ishai-Cohen and Narkis models for rigid polymeric matrix and compared to each other. PLGA/nBCP scaffolds with 30 wt% nBCP showed the highest value of yield strength among the scaffolds. In addition, it was found that by increasing the nBCP in scaffolds to 50 wt%, the modulus of elasticity was highly enhanced. However, the optimum value of yield strength was obtained at 30 wt% nBCP, and the agglomeration of reinforcing particles at higher percentages caused a reduction in yield strength. It is clear that the elastic modulus of matrix has the significant role in elastic modulus of scaffolds, as also the size of the filler particles in the matrix.

In this work, the influence of element Y on the mechanical properties of the as-cast Mg-5.5Zn-xY-0.8Zr alloys (with element Y content of 0, 1.08, 1.97 and 3.08 wt.%) has been investigated and compared. The results showed that the alloy with Y content of 1.08 wt.% had the superior tensile strength, but its ductility was the lowest. When Y content reached 1.97 or 3.08 wt.%, the tensile strength of the alloys decreased obviously, but the ductility had a little improvement. X-ray phase analysis showed that when Y content was 1.08 wt.%, the alloy mainly contained I-phase and alpha-Mg matrix, whereas when Y content was 1.97 or 3.08 wt.%, besides I-phase and alpha-Mg matrix, W-phase would be formed. And the diffraction peak of W-phase intensified with the increase of element Y content. Based on fracture observations, the influence of I-phase and W-phase on the mechanical properties of the alloys has been explained, respectively. It revealed that I-phase was closely bonded with the Mg matrix and could effectively retard the basal slip, and then strengthened the alloy greatly. However, W-phase was easily cracked during the tensile process, which degraded the mechanical properties. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Tests under mechanical strain control were performed to investigate the TMF behavior of Z2CND18.12N within the temperature range between 150-550℃. Different strain amplitudes and phase-angles were applied. Total strain controlled low cycle fatigue test was also performed at the peak temperature of TMF cycling. The results show that the cyclic stress response of the material displayed an initial hardening regime followed by a saturation period and then cyclic softening till failure. The TMF cycling leads to the development of significant amounts of mean stress. Some life prediction models were employed to predict the TMF life of Z2CND18.12N, and the results indicate that the energy-based models provide good prediction on the thermal-mechanical fatigue behaviors of this material. An optical microscopic observation shows that the surface crack initiations and crack propagations are typically transgranular mode.
