TY - CONF A1 - Gollwitzer, Christian A1 - Ulbricht, Alexander A1 - Scholz, Philipp A1 - Joshi, Yogita A1 - Weidner, Steffen T1 - 3D printing material filled with metal organic frameworks analyzed by synchrotron based absorption edge tomography N2 - Absorption edge tomography, also known as differential tomography at absorption edges, is a method which exploits the sudden change of the attenuation coefficient, when the photon energy crosses the absorption edge of an element. Synchrotron radiation is the best source for absorption edge tomography, because of its small bandwidth, high intensity and easily adjustable photon energy. The synchrotron beamline BAMline at the synchrotron radiation facility BESSY II in Berlin, which is operated by the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM), provides a monochromatized beam in a photon energy range from 5 keV up to 80 keV with a bandwidth of 2%, when the double multilayer monochromator is used. Together with the microtomography setup, this enables differential tomography with submicron resolution at the K edge of the elements from chromium up to the lanthanides, and up to uranium, when the L edges are used as well. In this work, metal organic frameworks (MOFs) embedded in polymer are characterized using differential tomography. MOFs are microporous structures of metal ions, coordinated by organic linker molecules, that can be used in a broad field of applications, especially in gas storage and catalysis. In this work, polymer embedded MOFs were extruded into filaments, which could be used for 3d-printing to profit from the specific properties of the MOFs in polymeric materials combined with the arbitrary shapes provided by 3d-printing. For the extrusion, different polymer classes like ABS, polyester- and polyetherurethanes, as well as different MOFs (ZIF-8, ZIF-67, HKUST-1) were used to create MOF containing filaments with a nominal diameter of 3.0 mm. Differential tomography at the edges of the Zn, Co, and Cu was then used to find the distribution of the corresponding MOF in the filament and to analyze the shape of the inclusions.

T1 - Synchrotron based absorption edge tomography for 3D characterization of the microstructure of Mg-Y-Zn alloys N2 - Absorption edge tomography, also known as differential tomography at absorption edges, is a method which exploits the sudden change of the attenuation coefficient, when the photon energy crosses the absorption edge of an element. Synchrotron radiation is the best source for absorption edge tomography, because of its small bandwidth, high intensity and easily adjustable photon energy. The synchrotron beamline BAMline at the synchrotron radiation facility BESSY II in Berlin, which is operated by the BundesanstaltfürMaterialforschung und -prüfung (BAM), provides a monochromatized beam in a photon energy range from 5 keV up to 80 keV with a bandwidth of 2%, when the double multilayer monochromator is used. Together with the microtomography setup, this enables differential tomography at the K edge of the elements from chromium up to the lanthanides, and up to uranium, when the L edges are used as well. In this work, the absorption edge tomography is employed to perform a non-destructive, three-dimensional characterization of the microstructure of metallic alloys. As an example, a high strength Mg-Y-Zn alloy containing long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases is analysed. The alloy with a nominal composition of Mg97Y2Zn1 was synthesized by melting highly pure magnesium, zinc and a Mg-22%Y master alloy and casting an ingot, which was homogenised at 350 °C and then extruded using an extrusion ratio of 18:1. The results demonstrate that synchrotron based absorption edge tomography is a promising technique to perform a 3D characterization of the microstructure of metallic alloys.
