ABSTRACTThe temperature effect on the magnetoelectric response of hybrid magnetostrictive/piezoelectric laminated composites in the range from room temperature up to 85 ºC is presented. The samples analyzed consisted of alternating, stacked, layers of a magnetostrictive amorphous metal, and a piezoelectric polymer, bonded to each other with an epoxy. The maximum magnetoelectric effect was observed when the composites were driven at their electromechanical resonance. First, we present results on the fabricability of the laminated composite sensor consisting on Vitrovac 4040® (Fe39Ni39Mo4Si6B12) as the magnetostrictive amorphous component and two different piezoelectric polymers: poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and 2,6(β-CN)APB/ODPA (poli 2,6) polyimide, a new type of high temperature piezoelectric polymer. At room temperature induced magnetoelectric voltages of 79.6 and 0.35 V/cm.Oe were measured when using PVDF and poli 2,6 polyimide respectively as the piezoelectric components. When heating, we have observed that the magnetoelectric response of the PVDF-containing device quickly decayed to about 5 V/cm.Oe, while for the poli 2,6- containing one it remained almost constat. We discuss the advantage of using this new piezoelectric polymer due to its good performance at high temperatures, making these magnetoelectric laminate composites suitable for high temperature applications.

Magnetostrictive/piezoelectric hybrid composites have recently attracted renewed interest as high sensitivity sensors and actuators. One of the most common used geometry consists in laminated amorphous magetostrictive metal/piezoelectric layers, and the maximum magnetoelectric effect has been found at the electromechanical resonance of the system. Here we present results concerning the fabrication of such laminate composites sensor by using Vitrovac 4040® (Fe39Ni39Mo4Si6B12) as the magnetostrictive amorphous component and two different piezoelectric polymers: poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and 2,6(β-CN)APB/ODPA (poli 2,6) polyimide, a new high temperature piezoelectric polymer. We have measured room temperature induced magnetoelectric voltages of 79.6 and 0.35 V/cm.Oe at the magnetoelastic resonance of the laminate when using PVDF and poli 2,6 polyimide as piezoelectric components. We have also tested the magnetoelectric response of both laminated composites at temperatures up to 85 °C, and we have observed that the PVDF polymer piezoelectric response quickly decays. Even if the induced magnetoelectric voltage is low, we discuss the advantage of using new piezoelectric polymers due to their good performance at high temperatures, up to 200 °C, making these laminate composites suitable for high temperature applications.

Fabrication of magnetoelectric laminates to be used high sensitivity sensors is a critical task and turns out to be influenced by different factors. Among them, the length of the composite (that determines the working frequency of the device) and the epoxy glue characteristics and cure process (that determines the ME signal measured at high temperatures) are of great importance. Here we present results concerning the magnetoelectric response of laminate composites fabricated with an Fe61,6Co16,4Si10,8B11,2amorphous alloy as the magnetostrictive component and the poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymer as the piezoelectric one. Measurements have been performed with composites ranging from 3 cm to 1 cm length and from room temperature up to 100 oC.As observed, an appropriate gluing process between magnetostrictive and piezoelectric components assures the measured magnetoelectric signal to keep constant up to about 60 oC, a temperature where the α-relaxation of the PVDF occurs and the piezoelectric response starts decaying. On the other hand, magnetoelastic resonance (working) frequencies change from 67.5 KHz for the device with L=3 cm to 215 KHz (within the radio-frequency range) for the 1 cm long one. Even for the shortest laminate, we are still able to detect some 6 V/cm.Oe at 100 oC. This makes such laminate composites suitable for high temperature and high frequency applications.

A new method based on a solution graft technique was used to prepare poly (vinylidene fluoride) grafted polystyrene sulfonated acid (PVDF-g-PSSA) proton exchange membrane. Polystyrene is grafted into PVDF modified by plain sodium silicate (Na4SiO4). There is a linear relationship between the degree of grafting and the content of Na4SiO4. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is used to characterize changes of the membrane's microstructures after grafting and sulfonation. The morphology of the membrane's microstructures after grafting and sulfonation is studied by scanning electrolytic microscope (SEM). The effect of plain sodium silicate (Na4SiO4) concentration and relative humidity on the conductivity of the electrolyte was investigated by the impedance at room temperature. The results show that the styrene has been grafted into PVDF. The conductivity of PVDF-g-PSSA electrolyte doped 10% plain sodium silicate (Na4SiO4) is 0.016 S/cm at room temperature. The conductivity of the electrolyte changes slightly at a relative humidity range of 20%-70%. The weightlessness of PVDF-g-PSSA electrolyte heated to 40°C was less than 2%, which indicated that water capacity was good.

A new type of Ti-Al-Sn-Zr-Mo-Si series high temperature titanium alloy was prepared by a water-cooled copper crucible vacuum induction melting method, and its phase transition point was determined by differential thermal analysis to be Tβ = 1017 °C. The influences of solution temperature on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the as-forged high temperature titanium alloy were studied. XRD results illustrated that the phase composition of the alloy after different heat treatments was mainly α phase and β phase. The microstructures showed that with the increase of the solution temperature, the content of the primary α phase gradually reduced, the β transformation structure increased by degrees, then, the number and size of secondary α phase increased obviously. The tensile results at room temperature (RT) illustrated that as the solution temperature increased, the strength of the alloy gradually increased, and the plasticity decreased slightly. The results of tensile test at 650 °C illustrated that the strength of the alloy enhanced with the increase of solution temperature, the plasticity decreased first and then increased, when the solution temperature increased to 1000 °C, the alloy had the best comprehensive mechanical properties, the tensile strength reached 714.01 MPa and the elongation was 8.48 %. Based on the room temperature and high temperature properties of the alloy, the best heat treatment process is finally determined as: 1000 °C/1 h/AC+650 °C/6 h/AC.

Abstract The application of bio-degradable green materials is a rising global trend during the past decades for the sake of environment protection and sustainable development. Soy protein-based biomaterial is a promising candidate to replace the petroleum-based synthetic materials and was proved to be an effective functional modifier for polymers from our previous studies. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulation is implemented in this study to provide insights in understanding the underlying mechanisms. 11S molecule is chosen as a representative of soy protein, and three different denaturation processes are applied, including heat denaturation at two temperatures and the breaking of disulfide bonds. It is observed that by controlling the denaturation conditions, the hydrophobicity of the protein molecule is manipulated: high temperature denaturation can increase the exposed area of hydrophilic residues; whereas, by breaking the disulfide bonds, the hydrophobic residues of the molecules can be largely exposed. Besides, the mechanisms of using protein as functional modifier to tune the structures of the hydrophobic Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) polymer (amorphous and β-crystal phases) are studied. S-S debond protein is found to favor the formation of amorphous PVDF; whereas, high temperature denatured one has stronger interactions with β phase.
