In this study, the Fe40 Al iron aluminide intermetallic, a low cost material of excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance, was used as binder for fabricating Fe40Al/TiC composites b y pressureless melt infiltration. The wetting ability of liquid Fe40Al in porous TiC pre-form was studied by in-situ monitoring the melting and infiltration p rocess. The infiltration ability was investigated by observing the distance of l iquid Fe40Al intrusion in porous TiC pre-forms at different infiltration temper atures and times by using optical microscope. Porous TiC per-forms with density of 60%~88%TD (theoretical density), prepared under pre-defined sintering temp e rature cycles, were used for fabricating Fe40Al/TiC composites in the range of 1 2%~40% metal content by volume. Almost full dense Fe40Al/TiC composites were su c cessfully fabricated by this technique. Liquid Fe40Al exhibited excellent infilt ration ability, the distance of complete intrusion of liquid Fe40Al in the TiC s intered pre-form with density of 88%TD was over 7 mm after 5 min at the inf iltration temperature of 1 450 ℃. Microstructural observation by SEM and TEM also showed that liquid Fe40Al filled the very narrow gaps among TiC particles, the interfaces of TiC particles and F e40Al plastic ligaments being metallurgical bonded. TEM revealed that high densi ty of dislocations formed in Fe40Al ligaments during solidification, which favor the mechanical properties. Ti decomposed from TiC particles and dissolved into Fe40Al during infiltration. According to the compositional analysis of TEM-EDS, the concentration of Ti in Fe40Al ranges at 1at%~4at% depending on composite f a bricating conditions and the distance from the measuring point to the closest Ti C particles. XRD analysis indicated that the composites were composed of two pha ses, the original TiC and Fe 0.4Al 0.6 intermetallic. No new phase formed during infiltration, but the lattice parameter of Fe 0.4Al 0.6 was expended due to the Ti in the solid solution.展开更多

The amorphous and crystalline states, and thermal parameters, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), the initial crystallization temperature (Tx), the supercooled liquid region (ΔTx=Tx-Tg), the reduced glass transition temperature T<sup>rg (Tg/Tm, Tm: the onset temperature of melting of the alloy, and Tg/Tl, Tl: the finished temperature of melting of the alloy) were investigated by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Glass forming ability of Fe<sup>60 CoxZr<sup>10 Mo5W2B<sup>23-x (x=1,3,5,7,9) bulk metallic glasses has been studied. According to the results, the alloy (x=7) with the highest T<sup>rg (Tg/Tl=0.607, Tg/Tl=0.590) value, has the strongest glass forming ability among these alloys because its composition is near eutectic composition. The wide supercooled liquid region over 72 K indicates the high thermal stability for this alloy system. This bulk metallic glass exhibits quite high strength (Hv 1020). The success of production of the Fe-based bulk metallic glass with industrial materials is of great significance for the future progress of basic research and practical application.展开更多

A regular solution approximation based on the sublattice model was adopted to describe the Gibbs energy for the individual phases in the binary and ternary systems. Thermodynamic parameters for each phase were evaluated by using the experimental data. These parameters enabled us to obtain reproducible calculations of the isothermal and vertical section diagrams. The amorphous-forming ability of M-Si-B ternary alloys has been evaluated by introducing thermodynamic quantities obtained from the phase diagram calculations into Davies-Uhlmann kinetic formulations. For the computation, the time-temperature- transformation (TTT) diagram, which gives the time necessary for the formation of the detectable amount of crystal during transformation, was obtained at a finite temperature. The critical cooling rate for amorphization could be defined as the minimum cooling speed that does not intersect the TTT curve and, hence, these critical cooling rates enable us to evaluate the glass-forming ability of M-Si-B ternary alloys. The driving force for the crystallization of the crystalline phase was derived, on the basis of the thermodynamic functions of each phase formulated by the present study. The calculated results showed good agreement with the experimental data on the compositional range of amorphization in these alloy systems.展开更多

The 2n pollen-producing clone can act as a bridge in crossing S. tuberosum and S. andigena with S. phureja. Populations from 4x-2x crosses show more unifomity and less segregation compared with that of 4x-4x crosses.The parent-offspring correlation for the traits, starch content and tuber number, is significant at 0.01 level. The regrssion equations are Y (mp-F1)=1.0 + 1.2x and Y (mp - F1) = 5.3 + 0.8x, respectively. The 2n pollen-producing clones play an impotant role in increasing tuber stach content.Estimates of the combining ability for the main yield components indicate that additive effect prodominatcs for such trais as plot yield, tuber weight per plant and starch content, whereas both additive and non-additive effects lay equal stress on mean tuber weight and non-additive effect is important for tuber number. In general, non-additive effect appears to be important in the progenies of 4x-2x crosses.Tuber number shows apparent heterosis while mean tuber weight dos not. Thus, it is necessary for 2n pollen-producing clones to be selected for high mean tuber weight and low tuber number before their use in commercial potato production.In the double cropping region of Anhui, the 4x - 2x hybrids seem to be more adaptive than S. tuberosum x S. andigena hybrids, but the yield of 4x - 2x cross is lower than that of the cross S. tuberosum x S. andigena in Harbin region.In Harbin region, the better combination type is in the from of S. andigena x (phureja-haploid Group tuberosum), and the best cross is also in the from. In Anhui, the better combination type is S. tuberosum x (phureja - haploid Group tuberosum), and the best cross is that using a variety of S. tuberosum as its parent. The progeny tubers of 4x - 2x cross have a short dormant period and are suitable for the double cropping region.展开更多

文摘Background For the purpose of utilising hybrid vigour to produce possible hybrids with a suitable level of stability,the knowledge of gene activity and combining ability is a crucial prerequisite before choosing desirable parents.The present study was carried out with six parents crossed in full diallel fashion and generated 30 F1 hybrids.These hybrids were evaluated in two replications in Randomized Block Design at Department of Cotton,TNAU for combining ability and gene action.Diallel analysis was carried out according to Griffing’s method-I(parents + F_(1) + reciprocals) and model-I and Hayman’s graphical approach by using INDOSTAT software.Results Analysis of variance for combining ability indicated that mean square values of GCA,SCA and reciprocals were highly significant for all the traits except for the uniformity index.RG763 and K12 showed highly positively significant GCA effects for most of the yield traits while PA838 and K12 for fibre quality traits,so they were found as best general combiners.PAIG379 × K12 and PDB29 × K12 for yield traits,and PDB29 × PA838,RG763 × PA838,and CNA1007 × RG763 cross combinations for fibre quality traits could be recommended for future breeding programms.Conclusion The results of both Griffing’s and Hayman’s approaches showed that non-additive gene action predominates as SCA variance was bigger than GCA variance,so heterosis breeding is thought to be a more fruitful option for enhancing GCA of many traits.
文摘Most of model cotton varieties used in tissue culture have glands on both the reproductive and vegetative parts of the plant.These glands contain compounds that are toxic to human and non-ruminant animals.The presence of these compounds limits their usage as food and feed.To obtain a glandless cotton variety with high-frequency somatic embryo production ability,27 glandless varieties

文摘The male sterile line is very important in the hybrid breeding program of rapeseed. This study was conducted to evaluate the combining ability of many characters of male sterile lines in Brassica napus L. Ten recessive genetic male sterile (RGMS) lines were used as parents to produce 45 single cross hybrids by using a half diallel cross method. These 45 crosses and their 10 parents were evaluated at Guiyang during 2007-2008. The results showed that both general combining ability (GCA) and specific combiing ability (SCA) effects were important for all characters, but additive gene effects were more predominant than non-additive gene effects. Qianyou 8AB and You 2894AB gave respective highly significant GCA effects of 230.94 and 127.65 kg-hm-2 for seed yield. Lines You 2894AB, QH303-4AB, You 157AB and You 2341AB gave highly significant GCA effects for oil content of 0.99, 1.62, 1.20 and 1.53%, respectively. The crosses among lines Qianyou 3AxQianyou 8B, Qianyou 8AxYou 2894B, You 2894AxQianyou 6B, Qianyou 8AxQH303-4B and Qianyou 8Ax Qianyou 6B gave high SCA effects of 616.29, 398.71,356.48, 394.24 and 303.79 kg hm-2 for seed yield, respectively. All these crosses also gave high seed yield indicating that these crosses could be used in the breeding program.

文摘The bulk Fe<sup>60 CoxZr<sup>10 Mo5W2B<sup>23-x (x=1, 3, 5, 7, 9) amorphous rods with diameters of 1.5 mm were successfully prepared by copper mold casting method with the low purity raw materials. The amorphous and crystalline states, and thermal parameters, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), the initial crystallization temperature (Tx), the supercooled liquid region (ΔTx=Tx-Tg), the reduced glass transition temperature T<sup>rg (Tg/Tm, Tm: the onset temperature of melting of the alloy, and Tg/Tl, Tl: the finished temperature of melting of the alloy) were investigated by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Glass forming ability of Fe<sup>60 CoxZr<sup>10 Mo5W2B<sup>23-x (x=1,3,5,7,9) bulk metallic glasses has been studied. According to the results, the alloy (x=7) with the highest T<sup>rg (Tg/Tl=0.607, Tg/Tl=0.590) value, has the strongest glass forming ability among these alloys because its composition is near eutectic composition. The wide supercooled liquid region over 72 K indicates the high thermal stability for this alloy system. This bulk metallic glass exhibits quite high strength (Hv 1020). The success of production of the Fe-based bulk metallic glass with industrial materials is of great significance for the future progress of basic research and practical application.
文摘A thermodynamic study has been carried out on M-Si-B (M=Fe, Ni) ternary systems. A regular solution approximation based on the sublattice model was adopted to describe the Gibbs energy for the individual phases in the binary and ternary systems. Thermodynamic parameters for each phase were evaluated by using the experimental data. These parameters enabled us to obtain reproducible calculations of the isothermal and vertical section diagrams. The amorphous-forming ability of M-Si-B ternary alloys has been evaluated by introducing thermodynamic quantities obtained from the phase diagram calculations into Davies-Uhlmann kinetic formulations. For the computation, the time-temperature- transformation (TTT) diagram, which gives the time necessary for the formation of the detectable amount of crystal during transformation, was obtained at a finite temperature. The critical cooling rate for amorphization could be defined as the minimum cooling speed that does not intersect the TTT curve and, hence, these critical cooling rates enable us to evaluate the glass-forming ability of M-Si-B ternary alloys. The driving force for the crystallization of the crystalline phase was derived, on the basis of the thermodynamic functions of each phase formulated by the present study. The calculated results showed good agreement with the experimental data on the compositional range of amorphization in these alloy systems.
文摘Progenies derived from crosses between Solarium tuberosum and 2n pollen-Producing diploid hybrids, exhibit obvious hybrid vigor. The 2n pollen-producing clone can act as a bridge in crossing S. tuberosum and S. andigena with S. phureja. Populations from 4x-2x crosses show more unifomity and less segregation compared with that of 4x-4x crosses.The parent-offspring correlation for the traits, starch content and tuber number, is significant at 0.01 level. The regrssion equations are Y (mp-F1)=1.0 + 1.2x and Y (mp - F1) = 5.3 + 0.8x, respectively. The 2n pollen-producing clones play an impotant role in increasing tuber stach content.Estimates of the combining ability for the main yield components indicate that additive effect prodominatcs for such trais as plot yield, tuber weight per plant and starch content, whereas both additive and non-additive effects lay equal stress on mean tuber weight and non-additive effect is important for tuber number. In general, non-additive effect appears to be important in the progenies of 4x-2x crosses.Tuber number shows apparent heterosis while mean tuber weight dos not. Thus, it is necessary for 2n pollen-producing clones to be selected for high mean tuber weight and low tuber number before their use in commercial potato production.In the double cropping region of Anhui, the 4x - 2x hybrids seem to be more adaptive than S. tuberosum x S. andigena hybrids, but the yield of 4x - 2x cross is lower than that of the cross S. tuberosum x S. andigena in Harbin region.In Harbin region, the better combination type is in the from of S. andigena x (phureja-haploid Group tuberosum), and the best cross is also in the from. In Anhui, the better combination type is S. tuberosum x (phureja - haploid Group tuberosum), and the best cross is that using a variety of S. tuberosum as its parent. The progeny tubers of 4x - 2x cross have a short dormant period and are suitable for the double cropping region.
