The bonding between the coatings and substrate is good. To examine the influence of the different graphite contents on the tribological properties of the graphite coatings, the comparison experiments were carried out on the ring-on-block friction tester. The tribological results show a change law of saddle-shape between the tribological properties of graphite coatings and graphite content. When the amount of graphite is up to 28g, the tribological properties of graphite coating are the best. The excellent anti-friction of the graphite coating is associated with the close-packed hexagonal crystal structure of graphite.展开更多

The samples were characterized by thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and charge/discharge measurements. With increasing the graphite content, the reversible capacity of the Co3O4/graphite composites decreases, while cycling stability improves dramatically, and the addition of graphite obviously decreases the average potential of lithium intercalation/deintercalation. The reversible capacity of the composites with 50% graphite rises from 583 to 725 mA-h/g as the calcination temperature increases from 300 to 500 ℃, and the Co304/graphite composites synthesized at 400 ℃ show the best cycling stability without capacity loss in the initial 20 cycles. peaks, corresponding to the lithium intercalaction/deintercalation for The CV profile of the composite presents two couples of redox graphite and Co3O4, respectively. EIS studies indicate that the electrochemical impedance decreases with increasing the graphite content.展开更多

Interracial microstructures and reaction phases were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The strength and resistance of the joints were tested. It is found that when the brazing parameters are optimized, the structures of the joints are graphite/(Cu,Ni)/Ni(s.s)+NixPy/Cu3P+Cu(s.s) (including Sn)+eutectic structures (Cu3P+Ni3P+Cu(s.s)/Cu (s.s)/Cu). When the temperature increases to 750℃ or the holding time prolongs to 300 s, the eutectie structures disappear and the amount of Cu3P increases. The maximum shear strength of the joints is 5.2 MPa, which fracture at the interface of graphite and metallization. The resistance of the joints is no more than 5 mΩ.展开更多

In this method, several or even dozens of parallel micro-flow channels ranging from 100 μm to 500 μm in width can be produced simultaneously. But, edge chippings easily occur on the rib surface of GCBPP during microplaning due to brittleness of graphite composites. Experimental results show that edge chippings result in the increase of contact resistance between bipolar plate and carbon paper at low compaction force. While the edge chippings scarcely exert influence on the contact resistance at high compaction force. Contrary to conventional view, the edge chippings can significantly improve performance of microfuel cell and big edge chippings outperform small edge chippings. In addition, the influence of technical parameters on edge chippings was investigated in order to obtain big, but not oversized edge chippings.展开更多

The nature of these carbon materials (CM) is multifarious. In what cause connects a mineralization with carbon. The great numbers of parameters, namely, the temperature, the pressure, the shear stress, the catalytic species, the host-rock lithology, the time and etc., have an influence on the graphitization process. Accumulations of gold and platinum group elements in black graphite shale and extraction of these metals from rocks depend in considerable degree from structural properties of CM. Raman spectroscopy has wide applied for various carbon modifications, including nano-structuring materials. The first and second-order Raman spectrum have been correlated with changes in the structure of graphite. There is a linear relationship between temperature and Raman R2 and R1 parameters (derived from the area and intensity of the defect band (D) relative to the ordered graphite band (G), respectively). The purpose of the present study is to characterize the rocks and CM from carbon-rich rocks of gold-ore deposits of the black-shale formation and magmatic ores using micro-Raman spectroscopy technique (Horiba Jobin Ivon LabRam spectrometer). Exciting was performed with 325 nm line of He-Cd laser. The graphite and graphite-like samples from many ore deposits of Russia and Kazahstan are investigations. R1 and R2 ratio indicate variable degree of organisation CM in the samples. The results show different spectral variations of CM with metamorphic grade: the well-ordered graphite from magmatic rocks, more - ordered and the disordered less graphitized CM from black-shale ores. For the first time in the world practice the Raman spectroscopy technique has been applied to determine the temperature of graphitizing for CM at gold-ore deposits of the black-shale formation. The temperatures obtained on carboniferous substance for the gold deposits range from 405°С to 280°С. Temperature of CM formation from Pt-low sulphide ores of the Talnakh deposit ranges from 4700C to 6500C. It has been shown that the carbon-rich phases from black-shale and magmatic rocks have various degrees of graphitization and different carbon forms.展开更多

Under a variant magnetic field, magnetic needles collided at a high rotating speed and exfoliated pristine graphite into graphite nanoplatelets with high efficiency. The obtained graphite nanoplatelets are highly crystalline, and the thickness is less than 10 nm. Moreover, the surface area could reached 738.1 m^2/g with a grinding time of 4 h. Silanized graphite nanoplatelets can disperse well in SG 15W-40 engine oil and serve as lubricant additive. Tribological results indicate that the friction coefficient and wear-scar of the friction pairs are lower than 76% and 41%, respectively, by adding 1.5‰(mass fraction) of silanized graphite nanoplatelets. Notably, the functionalized graphite nanoplatelets can realize large-scale production and commercial application.展开更多

The PGCF was synthesized by cyclic voitammetry method in 0.5 mol/L H2SO4 solution containing 1 g/L graphite powder and 0.2 mol/L aniline. The PGCF GOD electrode was prepared by doping GOD into the composite film. The morphology of the PGCF and the response property of the PGCF GOD electrode were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical measurement, respectively. The results show that the PGCF has a porous and netty structure and the PGCF GOD electrode has excellent response property such as high sensitivity and short response time. Influences of pH value, temperature, glucose concentration and potential on the response current of the electrode were also discussed. The sensor has a maximum steady-state current density of 357.17μA/cm2 and an apparent Michaelis-Menten constant of 16.57 mmol/L. The maximum current response of the enzyme electrode occurs under the condition ofpH 5.5, 0.8 V and 65℃.

文摘The graphite was modified using pitch through dynamical melt-carbonization, and the effects of modification temperature and the amount of pitch on the characteristics of graphite were investigated. The structure and characteristics of the graphite were determined by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), particle size analysis and electrochemical measurements. The results show that the modified graphite has a disordered carbon/graphite composite structure, larger average particle diameter, greater tap density, and better electrochemical characteristics than the untreated graphite. The sample coated with 10% pitch dynamical melt-carbonized at 400 ℃ for 3 h and heat-treated at 850 ℃ for 2 h has better electrochemical performances with a reversible capacity of 360.5 mA·h/g, a irreversible capacity of 41.0 mA·h/g, and an initial coulombic efficiency of 89.8% compared with natural graphite and disordered carbon.

文摘To improve the solid lubricity on the worn surface of frictional-pairs, a convenient and simple brush-painting technique was utilized to prepare the solid lubrication graphite coatings. The bonding between the coatings and substrate is good. To examine the influence of the different graphite contents on the tribological properties of the graphite coatings, the comparison experiments were carried out on the ring-on-block friction tester. The tribological results show a change law of saddle-shape between the tribological properties of graphite coatings and graphite content. When the amount of graphite is up to 28g, the tribological properties of graphite coating are the best. The excellent anti-friction of the graphite coating is associated with the close-packed hexagonal crystal structure of graphite.

文摘The core components of HTR mainly consist of graphite,which is an excellent solid moderating material and structure material with good irradiation performance.However,graphite is easier to be oxidized at high temperature.It is important to improve the anti-oxidation performance of graphite substrate to enhance the safety of HTR.Anti-oxidation coating has been proved that it can effectively improve the oxidation resistance of graphite substrate.The selection of coating includes the coating materials system and the preparation techniques.In addition,attention also should be paid to the anti-oxidation mechanism.SiC based coating system is most commonly used in HTR and some other coating systems such as zirconium compounds coating,noble metal coating also can be used in nuclear.However,some coating systems are not suitable in HTR because the elements contained cannot be used in high irradiation environment.The emphasis is on the antioxidant mechanism of different coating systems.Some anti-oxidation coating techniques for graphite substrate are also reviewed in this paper,such as PC,CVD,PS and slurry.Finally,the existing problems of the oxidation resistance coating are proposed and an outlook is made for the development of the protection coating system for graphite substrate used in nuclear.

文摘Co3O4/graphite composites were synthesized by precipitation of cobalt oxalate on the surface of graphite and pyrolysis of the precipitate, and the effects of graphite content and calcination temperature on the electrochemical properties of the composites were investigated. The samples were characterized by thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and charge/discharge measurements. With increasing the graphite content, the reversible capacity of the Co3O4/graphite composites decreases, while cycling stability improves dramatically, and the addition of graphite obviously decreases the average potential of lithium intercalation/deintercalation. The reversible capacity of the composites with 50% graphite rises from 583 to 725 mA-h/g as the calcination temperature increases from 300 to 500 ℃, and the Co304/graphite composites synthesized at 400 ℃ show the best cycling stability without capacity loss in the initial 20 cycles. peaks, corresponding to the lithium intercalaction/deintercalation for The CV profile of the composite presents two couples of redox graphite and Co3O4, respectively. EIS studies indicate that the electrochemical impedance decreases with increasing the graphite content.

文摘Oxygen-free copper and pre-metalized graphite were brazed using CuNiSnP braze alloy by high frequency induction heating method. Interracial microstructures and reaction phases were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The strength and resistance of the joints were tested. It is found that when the brazing parameters are optimized, the structures of the joints are graphite/(Cu,Ni)/Ni(s.s)+NixPy/Cu3P+Cu(s.s) (including Sn)+eutectic structures (Cu3P+Ni3P+Cu(s.s)/Cu (s.s)/Cu). When the temperature increases to 750℃ or the holding time prolongs to 300 s, the eutectie structures disappear and the amount of Cu3P increases. The maximum shear strength of the joints is 5.2 MPa, which fracture at the interface of graphite and metallization. The resistance of the joints is no more than 5 mΩ.

文摘A new method of manufacturing micro-flow channels on graphite composite bipolar plate(GCBPP) microplaning using specially designed multi-tooth tool is proposed. In this method, several or even dozens of parallel micro-flow channels ranging from 100 μm to 500 μm in width can be produced simultaneously. But, edge chippings easily occur on the rib surface of GCBPP during microplaning due to brittleness of graphite composites. Experimental results show that edge chippings result in the increase of contact resistance between bipolar plate and carbon paper at low compaction force. While the edge chippings scarcely exert influence on the contact resistance at high compaction force. Contrary to conventional view, the edge chippings can significantly improve performance of microfuel cell and big edge chippings outperform small edge chippings. In addition, the influence of technical parameters on edge chippings was investigated in order to obtain big, but not oversized edge chippings.
文摘Graphite and graphite-like materials widely are present at black shale and magmatic ores. The nature of these carbon materials (CM) is multifarious. In what cause connects a mineralization with carbon. The great numbers of parameters, namely, the temperature, the pressure, the shear stress, the catalytic species, the host-rock lithology, the time and etc., have an influence on the graphitization process. Accumulations of gold and platinum group elements in black graphite shale and extraction of these metals from rocks depend in considerable degree from structural properties of CM. Raman spectroscopy has wide applied for various carbon modifications, including nano-structuring materials. The first and second-order Raman spectrum have been correlated with changes in the structure of graphite. There is a linear relationship between temperature and Raman R2 and R1 parameters (derived from the area and intensity of the defect band (D) relative to the ordered graphite band (G), respectively). The purpose of the present study is to characterize the rocks and CM from carbon-rich rocks of gold-ore deposits of the black-shale formation and magmatic ores using micro-Raman spectroscopy technique (Horiba Jobin Ivon LabRam spectrometer). Exciting was performed with 325 nm line of He-Cd laser. The graphite and graphite-like samples from many ore deposits of Russia and Kazahstan are investigations. R1 and R2 ratio indicate variable degree of organisation CM in the samples. The results show different spectral variations of CM with metamorphic grade: the well-ordered graphite from magmatic rocks, more - ordered and the disordered less graphitized CM from black-shale ores. For the first time in the world practice the Raman spectroscopy technique has been applied to determine the temperature of graphitizing for CM at gold-ore deposits of the black-shale formation. The temperatures obtained on carboniferous substance for the gold deposits range from 405°С to 280°С. Temperature of CM formation from Pt-low sulphide ores of the Talnakh deposit ranges from 4700C to 6500C. It has been shown that the carbon-rich phases from black-shale and magmatic rocks have various degrees of graphitization and different carbon forms.

文摘Graphite nanoplatelets were prepared by a novel magnetic-grinding method using self-made equipments. Under a variant magnetic field, magnetic needles collided at a high rotating speed and exfoliated pristine graphite into graphite nanoplatelets with high efficiency. The obtained graphite nanoplatelets are highly crystalline, and the thickness is less than 10 nm. Moreover, the surface area could reached 738.1 m^2/g with a grinding time of 4 h. Silanized graphite nanoplatelets can disperse well in SG 15W-40 engine oil and serve as lubricant additive. Tribological results indicate that the friction coefficient and wear-scar of the friction pairs are lower than 76% and 41%, respectively, by adding 1.5‰(mass fraction) of silanized graphite nanoplatelets. Notably, the functionalized graphite nanoplatelets can realize large-scale production and commercial application.
