Contact Melting in Simple Eutectic System

The growth of the liquid interlayer in the system lead-tin at 463 K is studied experimentally in the nonstationary diffusion process of contact melting. The contact melting was carried out between pure tin and solid solution of tin in lead (0, 5.9, 11.5, 17.8, 24.8 mol. % Sn). The results indicate that the concentration range of the liquid interlayer corresponds to the interval of homogeneity of the liquid phase in the phase diagram at the experiments temperature. It is shown that the solid solution corresponding to the solidus near the liquid/crystal interface can not be generated by the diffusion of atoms from the liquid into the crystal. An explanation is offered that the solid solution of solidus composition at the liquid/crystal interface occurs as a result of the precipitate from the metastable (supersaturated by lead) melt

Chemically Controllable Magnetic Transition Temperature and Magneto-Elastic Coupling in MnZnSb Compounds

International audienceMagneto-caloric materials offer the possibility to design environmentally friendlier thermal management devices compared to the widely used gas-based systems. The challenges to develop this solid-state based technology lie in the difficulty of finding materials presenting a large magneto-caloric effect over a broad temperature span together with suitable secondary appli-cation parameters such as low heat capacity and high thermal conductivity. A series of compounds derived from the PbFCl structure is investigated using a combination of computational and experimental methods focusing on the change of cell volume in magnetic and non-magnetic ground states. Scaling analysis of the magnetic properties determines that they are second order phase transition ferromagnets and that the magnetic entropy change is driven by the coupling of magneto-elastic strain in the square-net through the magnetic transition determined from neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The primary and secondary application related properties are measured experimentally, and the c/a parameter is identified as an accurate proxy to control the magnetic transition. Chemical substitution on the square-net affords tuning of the Curie temperature over a broad temperature span between 252 and 322 K. A predictive machine learning model for the c/aparameter is developed to guide future exploratory synthesis

Processes at the liquid/crystal boundary upon contact melting in the system with intermediate solid phases

Growth of the liquid interlayer in the indium-tin system at 400 K in the process of contact melting in the nonstationary diffusion regime has been investigated experimentally. The contact pairs were composed of pure substances, solid solutions, and intermediate solid phases. The previously developed concepts have been extended to include the case where the existence of intermediate solid phases on both sides of the liquid phase should be taken into account. It follows from the results obtained that the concentration range of the liquid interlayer corresponds to the homogeneity range of the liquid phase in the phase diagram at the temperature of experiments. The results of the experiments can be explained based on the model according to which solid solutions and intermediate solid phases at the liquid/crystal interface arise due to the precipitation from the metastable melt supersaturated by the substance of the adjacent phase. © Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2012

ANTHOCYANINS ALIPHATIC ALCOHOLS EXTRACTION FEATURES

Anthocyanins red pigments that give color a wide range of fruits, berries and flowers. In the food industry it is widely known as a dye a food additive E163. To extract from natural vegetable raw materials traditionally used ethanol or acidified water, but in same technologies it’s unacceptable. In order to expand the use of anthocyanins as colorants and antioxidants were explored extracting pigments alcohols with different structures of the carbon skeleton, and the position and number of hydroxyl groups. For the isolation anthocyanins raw materials were extracted sequentially twice with t = 60 C for 1.5 hours. The evaluation was performed using extracts of classical spectrophotometric methods and modern express chromaticity. Color black currant extracts depends on the length of the carbon skeleton and position of the hydroxyl group, with the alcohols of normal structure have higher alcohols compared to the isomeric structure of the optical density and index of the red color component. This is due to the different ability to form hydrogen bonds when allocating anthocyanins and other intermolecular interactions. During storage blackcurrant extracts are significant structural changes recoverable pigments, which leads to a significant change in color. In this variation, the stronger the higher the length of the carbon skeleton and branched molecules extractant. Extraction polyols (ethyleneglycol, glycerol) are less effective than the corresponding monohydric alcohols. However these extracts saved significantly higher because of their reducing ability at interacting with polyphenolic compounds
