The high-strain-rate mechanical response of Mg alloy/SiC_p composite foams has received increased attention in recent years due to their light weight and potential to absorb large amounts of energy during deformation. Dynamic compressive properties of closed-cell Mg alloy/SiC_p composite foams with diff erent relative densities(0.162, 0.227 and 0.351) and diff erent SiC_p additions(0, 4 and 8 wt%) have been investigated using Split-Hopkinson pressure bar. It is shown that peak stress and energy absorption capacity signifi cantly increase as the relative density increases at the range of testing strain rates. Peak stress and energy absorption display strain rate dependence. The peak stress of specimens with 0 wt% and 4 wt% SiC particles additions grows with increasing strain rate. Meanwhile, the increment in the peak stress of specimens with 8 wt% addition is not signifi cant with strain rate increasing. The increase in strain rate increases the energy absorption capacity. The suitable amount of SiC particles addition has great advantages over increasing the peak stress and energy absorption capacity at the high strain rate. The strain-rate-sensitive matrix, cell morphology, morphological defects and gas pressure have an impact on the strain-rate sensitivity of Mg alloy/SiC_p composite foams.
Mg/Ni hybrid foams were fabricated by the electroless method.The Ni-P(Nickel-Phosphorous)coatings were deposited on the surface of closed-cell Mg alloy foams.The composition,microstructure and phases of the Ni-P coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS)and X-ray diffraction(XRD),respectively.The compressive tests were performed on the Mg/Ni hybrid foams at 400℃using the Mg alloy foams as a reference.The experimental results show that the yield strength,plateau stress and energy absorption capacity of the closed-cell Mg alloy foams at high temperature were improved by the Ni-P coating.And there are four main modes for the Mg/Ni hybrid foam failure at 400℃,i e,shearing in cell wall,bending in cell edge,shedding and cracking in Ni-P coating.

采用机械研磨方法制备前驱体,再将前驱体进行煅烧得到NiFe2O4纳米粉.重点研究了煅烧温度对粉体物相和形貌的影响以及固相反应过程与机理.结果表明：煅烧过程中晶粒长大活化能为12.08 k J·mol-1,主要以界面扩散为主;煅烧温度为700℃时粉体团聚严重,颗粒之间存在片状非晶态化合物,结晶度低;750℃煅烧1 h得到的NiFe2O4纳米粉物相单一,粒径分布在35~85 nm之间,温度过高时晶粒明显长大;机械研磨洗涤后前驱体主要由Fe2O3,NiO和NiFe2O4组成,反应产物结晶度低,反应不完全;盐颗粒的存在能抑制晶粒生长,减小产物粒径.
Pretreated Mg-Li alloy sheets were pre-plated in a NiCO3？2Ni（OH）2？4H2O solution to form a thin Ni-P alloy film and then plating in a NiSO4？6H2O solution was carried out to obtain a protective coating.The surface morphology,structure and corrosion resistance of the coating were studied.The results showed that a flat,bright and compact plating layer,which was integrated into the matrix metal,was obtained.The P content of the Ni-P coating reached 13.56%（mass fraction）.The hardness value of the Ni-P coating was about HV 549.The polarization curve showed that the corrosion potential of the Ni-P coating reached ？0.249 V（vs SCE）.A long passivation region was found on the polarization curve,and this phenomenon indicated that the coating has an excellent anti-corrosion property.
采用粉末冶金法制备NiFe_2O_4纳米粉增韧NiFe_2O_4陶瓷铝电解惰性阳极,研究了NiFe_2O_4纳米粉添加量对NiFe_2O_4陶瓷惰性阳极烧结行为和材料性能的影响。通过线收缩和SEM对NiFe_2O_4陶瓷的烧结性能和显微结果进行分析。研究结果表明:随着NiFe_2O_4纳米粉添加量的增加,烧结收缩程度逐渐增大,烧结致密化开始温度和烧结初期活化能逐渐降低,添加量为40%时试样从900℃开始大幅度收缩,烧结初期表观活化能下降到291.43 k J/mol。NiFe_2O_4陶瓷惰性阳极的体积密度、抗弯强度和断裂韧性随NiFe_2O_4纳米粉添加量的增加均呈现先上升后下降的变化趋势,气孔率和静态腐蚀率呈先下降后上升的趋势,均在30%达到极值,断裂韧性达到最大值3.12 MPa·m1/2,是未添加纳米粉试样的2.14倍。NiFe_2O_4纳米粉的添加能够明显增强晶界结合强度,降低陶瓷材料气孔率,从而提高断裂表面能实现增韧作用。
Al foam sandwich panel(AFS) with metallic bonding was fabricated by foaming a hotpressed three-layer composite with two steel facesheets and a melt route precursor as core. The melt route precursor was fabricated by dispersing undecomposed blowing agent into molten Al, followed by solidification. Microstructures of the joints during fabrication process were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS). Static three-point bending was conducted to evaluate joint quality of the AFS. It was found that a primary bonding was achieved by hot-pressing and significant diffusion layer of Fe-Al intermetallic compounds was sustained between steel and Al foam core by foaming. Damage modes of the AFS under three-point bending were dominated by indentation, plastic hinges, core shear and crack. Delamination between steel and foam was absent, implying that reliable metallic bonding was achieved. This method allows for producing large-scale AFS with steel facesheets.
