Single-Crystal Elastic Constants of Yttria (Y2O3) Measured to High Temperatures

Yttria, or yttrium sesquioxide (Y2O3), has been considered for use in nuclear applications and has gained interest relatively recently for use in infrared optics. Single crystals of yttria have been grown successfully at the NASA Glenn Research Center using a laser-heated float zone technique in a fiber and rod. Such samples allow measurement of the single-crystal elastic properties, and these measurements provide useful property data for the design of components using single crystals. They also yield information as to what degree the elastic properties of yttria ceramics are a result of the intrinsic properties of the yttria crystal in comparison to characteristics that may depend on processing, such as microstructure and intergranular phases, which are common in sintered yttria. The single-crystal elastic moduli are valuable for designing such optical components. In particular, the temperature derivatives of elastic moduli allow the dimensional changes due to heating under physical constraints, as well as acoustic excitation, to be determined. The single-crystal elastic moduli of yttria were measured by Brillouin spectroscopy up to 1200 C. The room-temperature values obtained were C(sub 11) = 223.6 + 0.6 GPa, C(sub 44) = 74.6 + 0.5 GPa, and C(sub 12) = 112.4 + 1.0 GPa. The resulting bulk and (Voigt-Reuss-Hill) shear moduli were K = 149.5 + 1.0 GPa and G(sub VRH) = 66.3 + 0.8 GPa, respectively. Linear least-squares regressions to the variation of bulk and shear moduli with temperature resulted in derivatives of dK/dT = -17 + 2 MPa/C and dG(sub VRH)/dT = -8 + 2 MPa/ C. Elastic anisotropy was found to remain essentially constant over the temperature range studied.

Thermal Properties of Oxides With Magnetoplumbite Structure for Advanced Thermal Barrier Coatings

Oxides having magnetoplumbite structure are promising candidate materials for applications as high temperature thermal barrier coatings because of their high thermal stability, high thermal expansion, and low thermal conductivity. In this study, powders of LaMgAl11O19, GdMgAl11O19, SmMgAl11O19, and Gd0.7Yb0.3MgAl11O19 magnetoplumbite oxides were synthesized by citric acid sol-gel method and hot pressed into disk specimens. The thermal expansion coefficients (CTE) of these oxide materials were measured from room temperature to 1500 C. The average CTE value was found to be approx.9.6x10(exp -6)/C. Thermal conductivity of these magnetoplumbite-based oxide materials was also evaluated using steady-state laser heat flux test method. The effects of doping on thermal properties were also examined. Thermal conductivity of the doped Gd0.7Yb0.3MgAl11O19 composition was found to be lower than that of the undoped GdMgAl11O19. In contrast, thermal expansion coefficient was found to be independent of the oxide composition and appears to be controlled by the magnetoplumbite crystal structure. Thermal conductivity testing of LaMgAl11O19 and LaMnAl11O19 magnetoplumbite oxide coatings plasma sprayed on NiCrAlY/Rene N5 superalloy substrates indicated resistance of these coatings to sintering even at temperatures as high as 1600 C.

Additional Trials & Tribulations in Synthesizing a Sulfide Standard

Well-characterized sulfide reference materials that can serve as matrix-matched calibrants for in-situ trace element analyses via laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) remain elusive. Here, we describe the creation an in-house sulfide standard at NASA JSC that will be used to measure siderophile and chalcophile trace elements in low pressure experimental products, specifically pentlandite ([FeNi]9S8) and pyrrhotite ([FeNi]1-xS), as well as natural sulfides in terrestrial and meteoritic mineral assemblages. Recent methods in creating a homogenous sulfide standard include pressed pellets, synthesized chips, or fused glass [e.g. 1-3]. Other studies, however, have had success in forming homogenous FeS standards via synthesization methods [e.g. 4-6]. We present a variation of the method described in [4], in which we create a pyrrhotite standard doped with a variety of trace elements (Zn, As, Se, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Sn, Sb, Te, W, Os, Ir, Pt, Au) at ~10-40 ppm and Cu at ~200 ppm. Sulfide compositions were constructed using Fe and Ni metal and elemental sulfur powders. Trace elements were added to elemental sulfur from Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) elemental standards as either nitrate or chloride solutions to prevent oxidation of the metal powders. The dried sulfur mixture was mixed with Fe and Ni powders and mechanically mixed before two aliquots were placed in separate SiO2 tubes. Each tube was held under vacuum for ~30 minutes, sealed under vacuum, and then heated at 800C for 48 hours. Like [4], the synthesis products were composed of pourous sulfide crystals. Major element analyses of both experimental aliquots, collected using an Electron Probe Microanalyser (EPMA), yield indistinguishable major element compositions (uncertainties in 2SE & 2RSE[%]), with an average of 57.90  0.09 (0.16 %), 4.95  0.03 (0.55 %), and 39.70  0.14 (0.34 %), for Fe, Ni, and S, respectively. Trace element data were measured using a Photon Machines 193nm laser ablation system coupled to a Thermo-Scientific Element-XR ICP-MS. Spot sizes were limited to 50 μm due to the porous nature of the sulfide target material. Trace element abundances, normalized to Fe as an internal standard, were also found to be homogenous between the two aliquots, with weighted mean 2RSE (%) values of <3.0 for all trace elements. Synthesized products were re-powdered and absolute concentrations measured via solution ICP-MS. Although the sulfide appears to be homogenous, sintering experiments will be performed to more closely match the standard density to natural sulfides and minimize differences in ablation behavior. Improved density also allows for higher sensitivity (i.e. more compact target material) and larger spot sizes or traverses, as void space is eliminated. Additional major and trace element analyses on the products of the sintering experiments will be undertaken.

Factors that affect reliability of nondestructive detection of flaws in structural ceramics

The factors that affect reliability of nondestructive detection of flaws in structural ceramics by microfocus radiography and scanning laser acoustic microscopy (SLAM) were investigated. Reliability of void detection in silicon nitride and silicon carbide by microfocus X-rays was affected by photon energy level, material chemistry in the immediate vicinity of the void, and the presence of loose powder aggregates inside the void cavity. The sensitivity of SLAM to voids was affected by material microstructure, the level of porosity, and the condition of the specimen surfaces. Statistical results are presented in the form of probability of detection as a function of void diameter for green compacts and sintered materials.

Design and Characteristics of Hydroxyapatites: Effect of Radiation

Hydroxyapatites single crystals have been investigated their applications as the laser host material. Czochralksi and flux growth methods have been utilized to achieve single crystals. Because of their bioactivities with tissues these have attracted interest for bone applications. For low temperature processing we have used several techniques. We utilized some organic melt and oriented the grains by the directional solidification method. This organic treated material has different characteristics than coarsened oxide materials. Our approach involved low temperature processing using nano-engineered powders of the material system MgO-Na2O-K2O-CaO-SrO-SiO2 and also borates were processed by sintering and grain growth. Our results indicate that substitution of calcium and strontium with some other elements such as gallium and magnesium have great potential to improve the mechanical properties of bones.

Investigation of Thermal High Cycle and Low Cycle Fatigue Mechanisms of Thick Thermal Barrier Coatings

Thick thermal barrier coating systems in a diesel engine experience severe thermal low cycle fatigue (LCF) and high cycle fatigue (HCF) during engine operation. In this paper, the mechanisms of fatigue crack initiation and propagation in a ZrO2-8wt.% Y2O3 thermal barrier coating, under simulated engine thermal LCF and HCF conditions, are investigated using a high power CO2 laser. Experiments showed that the combined LCF/HCF tests induced more severe coating surface cracking, microspallation and accelerated crack growth, as compared to the pure LCF test. Lateral crack branching and the ceramic/bond coat interface delaminations were also facilitated by HCF thermal loads, even in the absence of severe interfacial oxidation. Fatigue damages at crack wake surfaces, due to such phenomena as asperity/debris contact induced cracking and splat pull-out bending during cycling, were observed especially for the combined LCF/HCF tests. It is found that the failure associated with LCF is closely related to coating sintering and creep at high temperatures, which induce tensile stresses in the coating after cooling. The failure associated with HCF process, however, is mainly associated with a surface wedging mechanism. The interaction between the LCF, HCF and ceramic coating creep, and the relative importance of LCF and HCF in crack propagation are also discussed based on the experimental evidence.

Selective Laser Melting Inconel 718 Restart Study

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) machines can occasionally shut down (such as in the event of a power failure), which requires the SLM build to be restarted. It has been observed that machine restarts can produce visible "restart lines" in the part, and, in at least one instance, a test specimen containing a restart line exhibited poor mechanical properties. The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of different machine restart factors on the mechanical properties of the produced SLM material. Test specimens were produced by varying time to restart, the number of re-sinters, and whether or not the build required re-levelling. These are build variables that are typically controlled by the machine operator. Test results indicate that re-leveling and using three re-sinters produces acceptable material. Statistical analysis indicates that re-leveling and re-sintering have strong effects on the resulting material properties. Additionally, the visibility of a restart line loosely correlates with material properties such that obvious restart lines tended to indicate worse material properties.

Effect of Radiation on Biologically Active Glasses

Multifunctional hydroxyapatites single crystals have been studied for their applications as the laser host material since past several decades. It is only recently their potential has been evaluated for bioactive materials. In the past researches, Czochralski and flux growth methods have been utilized to achieve single crystals. We have used low temperature processing techniques for synthesis. Organic melt was used to achieve oriented fibers by the directional solidification method. This organic treated material has different characteristics than coarsened oxide materials. Our approach involved low temperature processing using nano engineered powders of the material system Na2O-K2O-CaO- MgO-SrO-SiO2. Also, borates were processed by sintering and grain growth. Effect of -ray was studied by measuring the electrical characteristics of radiated samples. Our experiments to further improve mechanical characteristics indicate that substitution of calcium with some other elements such as gallium have great potential to improve the radiation hardening and mechanical properties of bones.

Radiant heating tests of several liquid metal heat-pipe sandwich panels

Integral heat pipe sandwich panels, which synergistically combine the thermal efficiency of heat pipes and the structural efficiency of honeycomb sandwich construction, were conceived as a means of alleviating thermal stress problems in the Langley Scramjet Engine. Test panels which utilized two different wickable honeycomb cores, facesheets with screen mesh sintered to the internal surfaces, and a liquid metal working fluid (either sodium or potassium) were tested by radiant heating at various heat load levels. The heat pipe panels reduced maximum temperature differences by 31 percent with sodium working fluid and 45 percent with potassium working fluid. Results indicate that a heat pipe sandwich panel is a potential, simple solution to the engine thermal stress problem. Other interesting applications of the concept include: cold plates for electronic component and circuit card cooling, radiators for large space platforms, low distortion large area structures (e.g., space antennas) and laser mirrors.

Effect of Processing on Morphology of Hydroxyapatites: Bioactive Glasses and Crystalline Composites

Recent studies on multinary oxides for applications as laser hosts and high dielectric capacitors have shown that processing at high temperature provides glassy or crystalline materials based on thermal treatments and cooling rates. Since hydroxyapatites are now subject of great interests due to their bioactivity, interest in producing soft and hard materials with glassy and crystalline nature by processing parameters has become very important. Crystalline materials by using Bridgman, Czochralski and flux growth methods are costly and require huge investment. We have observed that even low temperature solidification in organic flux produced oriented fibers. This organic treated material has different characteristics than in situ oxide materials prepared by sintering and grain growth. Examples of phosphate and silicate-based systems will be presented to demonstrate soft and hard materials. Effect of TiO2 and other hardening elements will be also reported.

Post-Landing Major Element Quantification Using SuperCam Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

The SuperCam instrument on the PerseveranceMars 2020 rover uses a pulsed 1064 nm laser to ablate targets at a distance and conduct laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) by analyzing the light from the resulting plasma. SuperCam LIBS spectra are preprocessed to remove ambient light, noise, and the continuum signal present in LIBS observations. Prior to quantification, spectra are masked to remove noisier spectrometer regions andspectra are normalized to minimize signal fluctuations and effectsof target distance.In some cases, the spectra are also standardized or binned prior to quantification. To determine quantitative elemental compositionsof diverse geologic materials at Jezero crater, Mars, we use a suite of 1198 laboratory spectra of 334 well-characterized reference samples. The samples were selected to span a wide range of compositions and include typical silicate rocks, pure minerals (e.g.,silicates, sulfates, carbonates, oxides),more unusual compositions (e.g.,Mn oreand sodalite), andreplicates of the sintered SuperCam calibration targets (SCCTs) onboardthe rover. For each major element (SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, FeOT, MgO, CaO, Na2O, K2O), the database was subdivided into five“folds” with similar distributions of the element of interest. One fold was held out as an independent test set, and the remaining fourfolds were used to optimize multivariate regression models relating the spectrum to the composition. We considered a variety of models, and selected several for further investigation for each element, based primarily on the root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP) on the test set, when analyzed at 3m. In cases with several models of comparable performance at 3 m, we incorporated the SCCT performance at different distances to choose the preferred model. Shortly after landing on Mars and collecting initial spectra of geologic targets, we selected one model per element. Subsequently, with additional data from geologic targets, some models were revised to ensure results that are more consistent with geochemical constraints. The calibration discussed here is a snapshot of an ongoing effort to deliver the most accurate chemical compositions with SuperCam LIBS.

Thermal Conductivity and Temperature Limits of Electron-Beam Physical-Vapor-Deposited ZrO2-7wt%Y2O3 Thermal Barrier Coating

The electron-beam physical-vapor-deposited (EB-PVD) ZrO2-7wt%Y2O3 thermal barrier coating has been widely used to protect engine hot section components in modem aircraft engines. Thermal conductivity and the conductivity increases due to sintering and phase changes are important coating design parameters. There is a need to characterize the coating thermal conductivity behavior and temperature limits, in order to potentially take full advantage of the coating capability. In addition, since the ZrO2-7wt%Y2O3 coating is often used as a baseline coating for the development of advanced lower thermal conductivity and higher temperature capability coatings, a thorough evaluation of the coating conductivity behavior at future higher engine operating temperatures will be useful for more accurately assessing the benefit gained from the new coating systems. In this study, thermal conductivity behavior of EB-PVD ZrO2-7wt%Y2O3 coating has been systematically investigated as a function of temperature (up to 2600 F) and time under steady-state and cyclic test conditions using a laser heat-flux technique. Thermal conductivity change kinetics were determined under realistic engine high temperature thermal gradient conditions, and correlated to the coating microstructural and phase changes. The thermal conductivity prediction models have been established in terms of heat flux, time, and testing temperatures.

Conductive Carbon Nanotube Inks for Use with Desktop Inkjet Printing Technology

Inkjet printing is a common commercial process. In addition to the familiar use in printing documents from computers, it is also used in some industrial applications. For example, wire manufacturers are required by law to print the wire type, gauge, and safety information on the exterior of each foot of manufactured wire, and this is typically done with inkjet or laser printers. The goal of this work was the creation of conductive inks that can be applied to a wire or flexible substrates via inkjet printing methods. The use of inkjet printing technology to print conductive inks has been in testing for several years. While researchers have been able to get the printing system to mechanically work, the application of conductive inks on substrates has not consistently produced adequate low resistances in the kilohm range. Conductive materials can be applied using a printer in single or multiple passes onto a substrate including textiles, polymer films, and paper. The conductive materials are composed of electrical conductors such as carbon nanotubes (including functionalized carbon nanotubes and metal-coated carbon nanotubes); graphene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (e.g., pentacene and bisperipentacene); metal nanoparticles; inherently conductive polymers (ICP); and combinations thereof. Once the conductive materials are applied, the materials are dried and sintered to form adherent conductive materials on the substrate. For certain formulations, increased conductivity can be achieved by printing on substrates supported by low levels of magnetic field alignment. The adherent conductive materials can be used in applications such as damage detection, dust particle removal, smart coating systems, and flexible electronic circuitry. By applying alternating layers of different electrical conductors to form a layered composite material, a single homogeneous layer can be produced with improved electrical properties. It is believed that patterning alternate layers of different conductors may improve electrical pathways through alignment of the conductors and band gap optimization. One feature of this innovation is that flexible conductive traces could be accomplished with a conductive ink having a surface resistivity of less than 10 ohms/square. Another result was that a composite material comprising a mixture of carbon nanotubes and metallic nanoparticles could be applied by inkjet printing to flexible substrates, and the resulting applied material was one to two orders of magnitude more conductive than a material made by printing inks containing carbon nanotubes alone.

Creep Resistance of ZrO2 Ceramic Improved by the Addition of a Small Amount of Er2O3

Zirconia (ZrO2) has great technological importance in structural, electrical, and chemical applications. It is the crucial component for state-of-the art thermal barrier coatings and an enabling component as a solid electrolyte for solid-oxide fuel cell systems. Pure ZrO2 is of limited use for industrial applications because of the phase transformations that occur. Upon the addition of stabilizers, cubic (c-ZrO2) and tetragonal (t-ZrO2) forms can be preserved. It is the stabilized and partially stabilized forms of zirconia that function as thermal barrier coatings, solid electrolytes, and oxygen sensors and that have numerous applications in the electrochemical industry. The cubic form of ZrO2 is typically stabilized through Y2O3 additions. However, Y2O3-stabilized zirconia is susceptible to deformation at high temperatures (greater than 900 C) because of the large number of slip systems and the high oxygen diffusion rates, which result in high creep rates at high temperatures. Successful use of ZrO2 at high temperatures requires that new dopant additives be found that will retain or enhance the desirable properties of cubic ZrO2 and yet produce a material with lower creep rates. At the NASA Glenn Research Center, erbium oxide (Er2O3) was identified as a promising dopant for improving the creep resistance of. ZrO2. The selection of Er2O3 was based on the strong interactions of point defects and dislocations. Single crystals of 5 mol% Er2O3- doped ZrO2 rods (4 mm in diameter) and monofilaments (200 to 300 mm in diameter and 30 cm long) were grown using the laser-heated float zone technique, and their creep behavior was measured as a function of temperature. The addition of 5 mol% Er2O3 to single-crystal ZrO2 improved its creep resistance at high temperatures by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude over state-of-the-art Y2O3-doped crystals. Detailed microstructural characterization of ZrO2-Er2O3 single crystals has identified new mechanisms for improving the creep resistance of this class of materials. Adding Er2O3 to ZrO2 results in microstructure of stable and metastable tetragonal precipitates that with thermal treatment evolve to a tweed structure of nanosize tetragonal lamellae. The superior high-temperature creep resistance of Er2O3-doped ZrO2 is attributed to nanoscale precipitation hardening. Doping with Er2O3 will significantly increase the upper-use temperature limit of ZrO2. Potential applications include using Er2O3-doped ZrO2 as a high-temperature fiber for structural applications and adding Er2O3 to reduce the sintering rates of ZrO2 thermal barrier coatings. This work was conducted at Dpto. de F sica de la Materia Condensada, Universidad de Sevilla, Spain, and at NASA Glenn.

Processing of laser formed SiC powder

Superior SiC characteristics can be achieved through the use of ideal constituent powders and careful post-synthesis processing steps. High purity SiC powders of approx. 1000 A uniform diameter, nonagglomerated and spherical were produced. This required major revision of the particle formation and growth model from one based on classical nucleation and growth to one based on collision and coalescence of Si particles followed by their carburization. Dispersions based on pure organic solvents as well as steric stabilization were investigated. Although stable dispersions were formed by both, subsequent part fabrication emphasized the pure solvents since fewer problems with drying and residuals of the high purity particles were anticipated. Test parts were made by the colloidal pressing technique; both liquid filtration and consolidation (rearrangement) stages were modeled. Green densities corresponding to a random close packed structure (approx. 63%) were achieved; this highly perfect structure has a high, uniform coordination number (greater than 11) approaching the quality of an ordered structure without introducing domain boundary effects. After drying, parts were densified at temperatures ranging from 1800 to 2100 C. Optimum densification temperatures will probably be in the 1900 to 2000 C range based on these preliminary results which showed that 2050 C samples had experienced substantial grain growth. Although overfired, the 2050 C samples exhibited excellent mechanical properties. Biaxial tensile strengths up to 714 MPa and Vickers hardness values of 2430 kg/sq mm 2 were both more typical of hot pressed than sintered SiC. Both result from the absence of large defects and the confinement of residual porosity (less than 2.5%) to small diameter, uniformly distributed pores.
