T1 - Surface crystallization and gas bubble formation during conventional heat treatment in Na2MnP2O7 glass N2 - The crystallization behavior of sodium ion conductive Na2MnP2O7 glass was examined to clarify the crystallization mechanism. The formation of thermodynamically metastable phase, layered Na2MnP2O7, at the surface of the glass occurred. Heat treatment at 430 °C for 3 h lead to surface crystals of Na2MnP2O7 oriented with the (101) direction perpendicular to the sample surface. As the heat treatment temperature increased, the glass-ceramic samples deformed, and the presence numerous micro bubbles due to dissolved water was detected.

T1 - Phase transformation induces plasticity with negligible damage in ceria-stabilized zirconia-based ceramics N2 - Ceramics and their composites are in general brittle materials because they are predominantly made up of ionic and covalent bonds that avoid dislocation motion at room temperature. However, a remarkable ductile behavior has been observed on newly developed 11 mol.% ceria-stabilized zirconia (11Ce-TZP) composite containing fine alumina (8 vol.% Al2O3) and elongated strontium hexa-aluminate (8 vol.% SrAl12O19) grains. The as-synthesized composite also has shown full resistance to Low Temperature Degradation (LTD), relatively high strength and exceptionally high Weibull modulus, allowing its use in a broader range of biomedical applications. In this study, to deepen the understanding of plastic deformation in Ce-TZP based composites that could soon be used for manufacturing dental implants, different mechanical tests were applied on the material, followed by complete microstructural characterization. Distinct from pure Ce-TZP material or other zirconia-based ceramics developed in the past, the material here studied can be permanently strained without affecting the Young modulus, indicating that the ductile response of tested samples cannot be associated to damage occurrence. This ductility is related to the stress-induced tetragonal to monoclinic (t-m) zirconia phase transformation, analogue to Transformation-Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels, where retained austenite is transformed to martensite. The aim of this study is to corroborate if the observed plasticity can be associated exclusively to the zirconia t-m phase transformation, or also to microcraking induced by the transformation. The t-m transformed-zones produced after bending and biaxial tests were examined by X-ray refraction and SEM/TEM coupled with Raman. The results revealed that the observed elastic-plastic behavior occurs without extensive microcracking, confirming a purely elastic-plastic behavior driven by the phase transformation (absence of damage).

It was found that the self-powdering phenomenon appeared significantly during the crystallization at temperatures near the crystallization peak temperature, but the phenomenon is suppressed in the crystallization at temperatures much higher than the glass transition temperature. It was also found that the substitution of TeO2 for B2O3 in the base glasses suppresses the self-powdering phenomenon and consequently bulk crystallized glasses were obtained in the glass with x=8 mol%. The densities at room temperature of the base glasses are d =4.755–4.906 g/cm3, being much higher than the value of d=4.555 g/cm3 for β′-Gd2(MoO4)3 crystal. It is proposed that the stresses in the inside of crystals induced by large density differences (i.e., large molar volume differences) between the glassy phase and crystals might be relaxed effectively in the glasses containing TeO2 with weak TeeO bonds and fragile character.

T1 - Mobility particle size spectrometers: Calibration procedures and measurement uncertainties N2 - Mobility particle size spectrometers (MPSS) belong to the essential instruments in aerosol science that determine the particle number size distribution (PNSD)in the submicrometer size range. Following calibration procedures and target uncertainties against standards and reference instruments are suggested for a complete MPSS quality assurance program: a) calibration of the CPC counting efficiency curve (within 5% for the plateau counting efficiency; within 1 nm for the 50% detection efficiency diameter), b) sizing calibration of the MPSS, using a certified polystyrene latex (PSL) particle size standard at 203 nm (within 3%), c) intercomparison of the PNSD of the MPSS (within 10% and 20% of the dN/dlogDP concentration for the particle size range 20 – 200 nm and 200 to 800 nm, respectively), and d) intercomparison of the integral PNC of the MPSS (within 10%). Furthermore, following measurement uncertainties have been investigated: a) PSL particle size standards in the range from 100-500nm match within 1% after sizing calibration at 203 nm. b) Bipolar diffusion chargers based on the radioactive nuclides Kr85, Am241 and Ni63 and a new ionizer based on corona discharge follow the recommended bipolar charge distribution, while soft X-ray-based charges may alter faster than expected. c) The use of a positive high voltage supply show a 10% better performance than a negative one. d) The intercomparison of the integral PNC of an MPSS against the total number concentration is still within the target uncertainty at an ambient pressure of approximately 500 hPa.

T1 - Four- and Five-Component Syntheses and Photophysical Properties of Emission Solvatochromic 3‑Aminovinylquinoxalines N2 - 3-Aminovinylquinoxalines are readily accessible from (hetero)aryl glyoxylic acids or heterocyclic π-nucleophiles by consecutive four- and fivecomponent syntheses in the sense of an activation-alkynylation-cyclocondensation-addition sequence or glyoxylation-alkynylation-cyclocondensation-addition sequence in good yields. The title compounds are highly fluorescent with pronounced emission solvatochromicity and protochromic fluorescence quenching. Time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy furnishes radiative and nonradiative fluorescence decay rates in various solvent polarities. The electronic structure is corroborated by DFT and TD-DFT calculations rationalizing the observed spectroscopic effects.

At the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) almost 1800 patients were treated since 1998. A 2 MV Tandetron™ was installed as injector for the k = 132 HZB cyclotron. Using the standard 358 duoplasmatron ion source with direct extraction of negative hydrogen ions an extremely stable proton beam can be delivered, both on the short-term and the long-term scale.

T1 - Reducing sulphates in crushed concrete: improving the building material properties of recycled concrete aggregates N2 - The material properties of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) are correlated to the sorting accuracy of the former demolition waste. Impurities like wood, clay bricks or gypsum can lead to inferior building material properties. Harmful substances like heavy metals or organic pollutants should be minimised as well. Hence the non-concrete materials have to be separated from the concrete material stream. This can be done during the demolition process by using selective dismantling techniques. Alternatively a variety sorting and classifying techniques to purify the crushed concrete can be utilized. A research project, funded by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, investigated the possibilities of gaining recycled concrete aggregates of a high quality for the reuse in the production of concrete. The work focuses especially on how gypsum respectively sulphates in the crushed concrete can be reduced. Sulphates can impair the setting behaviour of concrete and also damage set concrete by causing expansion. Therefore the content of sulphates in RCA is restricted by guidelines and standards in Germany. Generally, gypsum in construction waste originates from interior fittings like gypsum walls, floor screeds, plaster boards and also plaster. Most of these materials can be reconstructed using selective dismantling techniques. This can be achieved either by manual labour or by using mechanical equipment e.g. to remove floor screeds by milling. Depending on the specific deconstruction site it can be more effective and/or more environmentally compatible to remove sulphates by treating the crushed concrete. Applicable treatments for sulphate reduction include dry processes like manual sorting of gypsum wall blocks as well as wet treatments e.g. jigging. In addition this research project an environmental performance evaluation was undertaken to assess different techniques for reducing sulphates in recycled concrete aggregates.

Bei dieser Messmethode wird durch Einsatz eines Echtfarben- Konfokalmikroskops mit Immersionsobjektiv das empfindliche elektrochemische Rauschmessverfahren um eine bildgebende Messkomponente erweitert. Ziel dieser Untersuchung war es, diskrete Rauschmesssignale visuell detektierbaren Korrosionserscheinungen auf der Stahloberfläche nahezu in Echtzeit zuzuordnen. Auf Grund der notwendigen Anforderungen an einen in situ Messaufbau wurde im Rahmen dieser Untersuchung ein neuartiges selbstklebendes Folienelektrodensystem, bestehend aus Gegen- und Bezugselektrode, entwickelt, das für die in situ Messung zum Einsatz kam. Die in situ Untersuchungen wurden an dem austenitischen Chrom-Nickel-Stahl 1.4301 durchgeführt. Als Ergebnis der Experimente konnten Stromtransienten im nA- bis μA-Bereich messtechnisch erfasst werden und mikroskopisch kleinen Korrosionskeimen, die sowohl stabil wie auch metastabil auf der Stahloberfläche auftraten, diskret und zeitnah zugeordnet werden. Weiterhin konnten mit Hilfe der Konfokaltechnik die Volumina und die Mantelflächen der einzelnen Lochdefekte ermittelt werden, sodass durch Auswertung und Kombination der elektrochemischen und mikroskopischen Messergebnisse erstmalig die Korrosionsstromdichte bestimmt werden konnte, die bei der Initiierung der lokalen Lochkeime aufgetreten ist. Damit konnte die Funktionalität und die hohe Empfindlichkeit des elektrochemisch-mikroskopischen Messverfahrens im Rahmen dieser Untersuchung erfolgreich verifiziert werden. T2 - 14.
