The external factors that influence on the thermokinetic EMF value in the Ti – 50 at.% Ni samples were determined. A method for setting thermokinetic EMF in certain sections of the TiNi wire was developed. The thermokinetic EMF value was measured directly using a digital millivoltmeter MNIPI V7-72. The sections of the Ti – 50 at.% Ni wire samples were subjected to tensile tests on a tensile machine IP 5158-5. On the basis of calorimetric studies, the kinetics of martensitic transformations was investigated. It was found that the direct phase transition affects the thermokinetic EMF value of the Ti – 50 at.% Ni during thermal cycling. Thermal cycling in the temperature range of the complete martensitic transformation causes the thermokinetic EMF value reduction by 0.16 mV by the 15th temperature cycle. The degradation of the thermokinetic EMF value by 0.04 mV took place during thermal cycling in the temperature range of the incomplete martensitic transformation by the 70th thermal cycle. The thermokinetic EMF value was restored to 0.22 mV with increasing temperature to 240 °С, as in the case of annealing at temperatures of 400÷800 °С. The thermokinetic EMF value is associated with a change in physical and mechanical properties of the alloy during thermal cycling. It is characterized by a change in stages of the phase transition and a shift of the characteristic temperatures. On the basis of the obtained experimental data, a method was proposed for a purposeful setting of extended TiNi wire sections with the thermokinetic EMF value from 0 to 0.6 mV, using different methods of influence on its value (thermal cycling, deformation, temperature change in heating zone). The proposed technical solution can be used as a method for information recording.

AbstractThe phase change materials (PCM) are known since years with high thermal storage capacity but with limited applications. The modified PCM mainly paraffin watery suspensions, so called PCM slurry, improve some PCM drawbacks (thermal conductivity) and as paraffin multifunctional fluids can work in both, heat transport and heat storage for cooling technology applications. The structural and thermophysical properties of two types PCM slurry were good basis for comparison of their efficiency: paraffin microcapsule slurry (A) and paraffin emulsion slurry (B), both working in temperature range of phase transition from 2-12 degreesC. The equipments as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), model NETZSCH DSC 200 PC; scanning electron microscopy (SEM), JOEL model JSM-5510; hot stage optical microscopy, LINKAM model TMS 94 and hand made thermal cycling system operational with Danfoss cooling machine that ensured 2 kW cooling capacity at 40oC; gave accurate results, characterizing completely, from structural and thermal point of view both types of PCM multifunctional structured fluids. Structural stability of the advanced phase change multifunctional fluids was discussed on sample imaging in variable magnifications made by method of Hot Stage microscopy and precise SEM study. Systematization of the DSC results obtained, including temperature range of phase transition and thermal storage capacity, measured before and after repeatable thermal cycling of the PCM multifunctional fluids, allowed selection of the PCM slurry working samples with relatively high thermal capacity applicable to further development in prototypes. Heat absorbed/released, calculated by NETZSCH DSC software, was for PCM slurry A in the range of 80 to 82 kJ/kg, while PCM slurry B showed thermal storage capacity from 56 to 53 kJ/kg. Correlation between the structural properties and thermal storage capacity of the phase change multifunctional fluids led to practical conclusions concerning: homogeneity; crystal growth/conditions; structural compatibility between components; prediction of the heat flow behavior of multifunctional PCM slurries in cooling technology for storage and transport of heat.

The results of complex studies on the development of a powder composition Ge–Cr–Zr–Ce–WC, promising for the production of functional cold-resistant coatings by microplasma sputtering, are presented. The coating has high adhesive strength (more than 40 MPa) and microhardness (up to 10–12 GPa) and withstands repeated thermal cycling in the temperature range from –60 to 20°С.

A study on the physical and mechanical properties of beeswax (BW), candelilla wax (CW), paraffin wax (PW) and blends was carried out with the aim to evaluate their usefulness as coatings for cheeses. Waxes were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), permeability, viscosity, flexural and tensile tests and scanning electron microscopy. Cheeses were coated with the waxes and stored for 5 weeks at 30 °C. Measured parameters were weight, moisture, occurrence and degree of fractures, and dimensional changes. The crystal phases identified by XRD for the three waxes allowed them to determine the length of alkanes and the nonlinear compounds in crystallizable forms in waxes. FTIR spectra showed absorption bands between 1800 and 800 cm−1 related to carbonyls in BW and CW. In DSC, the onset of melting temperature was 45.5 °C for BW, and >54 °C for CW and PW. Cheeses coated with BW did not show cracks after storage. Cheeses coated with CW and PW showed microcraks, and lost weight, moisture and shrunk. In the flexural and tensile tests, BW was ductile; CW and PW were brittle. BW blends with CW or PW displays a semi ductile behavior. Cheeses coated with BW blends lost less than 5% weight during storage. The best waxes were BW and the blends.

AbstractIn situ tensile tests employing digital image correlation were conducted to study the martensitic transformation of oligocrystalline Fe–Mn–Al–Ni shape memory alloys in depth. The influence of different grain orientations, i.e., near-〈001〉 and near-〈101〉, as well as the influence of different grain boundary misorientations are in focus of the present work. The results reveal that the reversibility of the martensite strongly depends on the type of martensitic evolving, i.e., twinned or detwinned. Furthermore, it is shown that grain boundaries lead to stress concentrations and, thus, to formation of unfavored martensite variants. Moreover, some martensite plates seem to penetrate the grain boundaries resulting in a high degree of irreversibility in this area. However, after a stable microstructural configuration is established in direct vicinity of the grain boundary, the transformation begins inside the neighboring grains eventually leading to a sequential transformation of all grains involved.

The crystal structures and martensitic transformation of Ti50Ni50−xPtx alloys (x = 0, 6.25, 8.33, 10.42, 12.5, 18.75, 25) were studied by means of density functional theory (DFT). The computational results indicate that the lattice parameters of Ti-Ni-Pt alloys continuously increase with increasing the Pt content. It is found that at ≤ 12.5 at.% Pt, the martensite structure is monoclinic B19′ phase, and the energy differences between parent and martensite phases (ΔE) decrease slightly with a minimum observed at 6.25 at.% Pt. However, when the Pt content is increased to around 15 at.%, the most stable martensite phase is the orthorhombic B19 structure, and the ΔE increases sharply with Pt concentration. It was found that the phase transition temperatures are closely related to the energy differences ΔE between parent and martensite phases. The electronic structures of martensite B19 and B19′ phases are also discussed.

Comparing the formability with each other, extrusion and various rolling experiments were carried out to make fine-grained AZ31 Mg sheets, and uni-axial tensile tests were carried out at different strain rates and temperatures to investigate the effect of different variables. A warm deep drawing tool setup with heating elements, which were distributed under the die surface and inside the blank holder, was designed and manufactured, and deep drawing was performed. Extruded Mg alloy AZ31 sheets exhibit the best deep drawing ability when working in the temperature range 250-350°C. Extruded and rolled sheets of 0.8 mm thick were also deep drawn in the lower temperature range 105-170°C,showing good formability and reaching a Limit Drawing Ratio up to 2.6 at 170°C for rolled sheets. At last, a sheet cup 0.4 mm thick was deep drawn successfully at 170 °C.
