Prevention of damage caused by heat is one of the objectives during package safety evaluation. This chapter describes basics of heat transfer and major aspects of regulatory requirements. Package temperature criteria and fire test conditions are explained. Special package design features regarding material properties and safety evaluation concepts are discussed. Experimental fire testing is performed by pool fire or with the help of a furnace. Analysis by numerical or analytical approaches show temperature gradients and whether compliance with the regulatory requirements and specified design temperatures is met. The tightness of the package lid system influenced by geometry changes is in the focus of a holistic thermo-mechanical approach considering the entire mechanical and thermal load conditions according the regulatory requirements.
The most common method for determination of the carbonation depth is the sprayed application of indicator solutions, Phenolphthalein in particular. Since the aerosols of Phenolphthalein are suspected to be carcinogenic, efforts have been intensified to use alternative indicators for the determination of carbonation depth. The subject and aim of this research paper are to examine indicator solutions from Alizarin Yellow R, Thymol Blue and a Mixed Indicator. These indicator solutions are commercially available and are not suspected to be carcinogenic.
For the purpose of this research, samples previously stored under accelerated carbonation conditions (1% CO2) were examined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and examination of the pH value. Additionally, the electrolytic back-titration for determination of total CO2 amount was carried out comparatively to TGA.
The role of Fe3+ ions in the transformations from boehmites and pseudoboehmite xerogels via transition aluminas to corundum was studied here. Especially, the active iron species responsible for the decrease of the temperature of transformation to corundum were looked for. To enable the formation of various Fe3+
and Fe2+ species, samples were subjected to thermal treatments in different atmospheres as well as mechanically activated. Thermal analysis and ESR spectroscopy served to follow the processes and to characterise the resulting products. It was found that (i) isolated Fe3+ ions can indicate local structural changes but have (almost) no influence on the temperature of corundum formation, (ii) the temperature of corundum formation decreases in the result of action of small
α-Fe2O3 particles and (iii) during thermal treatments Fe3+ ions are distributed between different phases or precursors thereof: transition aluminas, corundum, Fe2O3, and a Fe3+ pool.
The investigation of iron-doped AlO(OH)/Al2O3 systems revealed that the combined employment of Mössbauer and ESR spectroscopies together with thermal analysis yields meaningful data with complementary information. This mutual complementarity is based on the coexistence of Fe point defects with the corresponding aggregated FeOx species which has been observed even for very low Fe concentrations. Competing redox processes between the dopant, the AlOx matrix, and the gas atmosphere during the thermal treatment enable the generation of solid phases exhibiting specific chemical properties. The entire reaction process is influenced by a specific mechanical and thermal pre-treatment that affects predominantly oxydative processes in the matrix. A protecting influence of the matrix preventing further reductive attack of the Fe3+ Fe2+ ions by hydrogen has been established.
Two types of commercially applied Ethylene/Vinyl Acetate Copolymers (EVA) for encapsulation of photovoltaic modules were investigated by the thermal analysis methods of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) in the temperature range from -150 °C to 200 °C. Glass transition, crystal melting and cross-linking were analyzed. The aims of the investigations were to gain more information for incoming goods control and to get information about the whole temperature dependent material properties in the investigated temperature range, starting at very low temperatures up to the crosslinking temperature region.
Basic oxygen furnace slags (BOFS) are by-products of the steelmaking process. Several researchers have studied the production of Portland cement clinker and metallic iron from BOFS via a reductive treatment.
In this study, we applied a carbothermal reduction of BOFS in a technical-scale electric arc furnace and characterised the clinker-like products. Those clinker-like non-metallic products (NMPs) had a chemical and mineralogical composition comparable to clinker for ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and contained large elongated alite crystals as major component. The pure NMPs reacted more slowly and achieved a lower degree of hydration compared with commercial OPC.
If the reactivity of the products can be further increased by employing specific adaptations, it can be used as a full clinker substitute for OPC. Nevertheless, it is also an option to use the material without further modifications as a cement component or concrete addition, which contributes to the strength development in both cases.
In the present study we have investigated whether the effect of water on properties of borate glasses resembles that of alkali oxide. Soda-lime-borate glasses with nominal compositions of x Na2O, 10 CaO, (90-x) B2O3 (x = 5, 15 and 25 mol%) were doped with up to 8 wt.% H2O by processing glass powder + distilled water in platinum capsules in an internally heated gas pressure vessel at 1523 K and 500 MPa. The water content of hydrous glasses was determined by Karl-Fischer titration and near-infrared spectroscopy. The glass transition temperature T-g. was derived from DTA and micropenetration experiments for which the effect of water loss at the surface of the hydrous glasses was studied. Heating glass samples at 10 K min(-1) in the DTA resulted in T-g values which are close to T-12 isokom temperatures confirming the equivalence of enthalpy relaxation and viscous relaxation for borate glasses. For all three glass series it is shown that T-g strongly decreases whereas the liquid fragility strongly increases upon the addition of water. These findings reveal that H2O primarily causes breaking of B-O-B bonds rather than supporting 4-fold coordinated boron as it is well-known for alkali oxides in this concentration range.

Martensitic phase transformations were studied in ultrafine grained Ni-rich pseudoelastic NiTi wires during cyclic deformation under small imposed strain amplitudes. Small strain variation tests were complemented by a thermographic analysis of the emerging temperature distributions in the specimens. The characteristics of the observed thermal profiles result from the specific phase transitions which take place at different stress levels. Homogeneous temperature changes, corresponding to a non-localized transformation activity along the specimen length, were observed throughout the whole range of applied stresses, starting from values as low as 100 MPa. This behavior is in line with previous literature reports for the stress-induced transformation from B2 austenite to R-phase as long as the critical stress for B19' martensite formation is not reached. In the present study, similar type of transformation activity could also be demonstrated at higher strains/stresses, even after the stress induced transformation to B19' was apparently completed. These findings suggest that transformation activity involving the B2 phase is present throughout the whole pseudoelastic stressstrain cycle; i.e., it is not restricted to the initial loading portion. Finally, non-localized transformation to or from B19' was identified during small amplitude strain variations in the plateau-like coexistence ranges of the pseudoelastic cycle.
