Additive Fertigung hat in den letzten Jahren aufgrund der hohen Flexibilität stark an Bedeutung gewonnen. Insbesondere in der Luft- und Raumfahrttechnik werden hohe Anforderungen an die Qualitätskontrolle additiv gefertigter Bauteile gestellt. Teile die mit dem selektiven Laserschmelzen (SLM) hergestellt werden, bilden schon währen des Fertigungsprozesses Poren oder Risse aus. Aus diesem Grund ist die zerstörungsfreie Prüfung jedes Bauteils notwendig. Erste Versuche haben gezeigt, dass die ex-situ Wirbelstromprüfung von SLM-Bauteilen mit hochauflösenden MR Sonden möglich ist und dass Fehler im Bereich von einiger µm detektiert werden können. In dem Vortrag wird eine automatisierte in-situ Wirbelstromprüfung von SLM-Bauteilen vorgestellt. Für die Prüfung wird eine Vielzahl hochauflösender MR Sensoren verwendet, um die benötige hohe Ortsauflösung bei gleichzeitig kurzer Prüfzeit zu erreichen. Zusätzlich werden klassische Methoden der Signalverarbeitung verwendet, um die Kosten und die Komplexität des Systems trotz hoher Prüffrequenz zu minimieren. Das vorgestellte System kann in der Zukunft helfen automatisiert Prüfberichte zu generieren, den SLM-Prozess zu kontrollieren oder automatisiert Fehlstellen auszuheilen.
What exactly does a postdoc do at a research institute? What scientific questions does he or she want to address? What is their daily work routine? During our regular Lab Tours, female postdocs provide insight into their jobs. They also tell us about their career path: How did they get there? And what do they envision for their professional future?
This time, Dr. Ana Guilherme Buzanich, a scientist from the Structure Analysis division at the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM), will give an overview of her Research areas. She works at the electron storage ring BESSY-II where she conducts experiments at two hard X-ray beamlines (BAMline and µSpot). The tour includes a guided visit of the research facility.
Elastomers are usually reinforced by large amount of fillers like carbon black (CB) or silica in order to improve various mechanical properties, such as Young’s modulus, hardness, tear resistance, abrasion resistance, and gas barrier properties. In recent years, such improvements were also obtained by using nanoparticles at significantly lower filler loadings. Graphene is a twodimensional (2D) sheet of a thickness in the atomic scale, composed of a honeycomb structure of sp2 carbon atoms. Besides significant mechanical reinforcement, graphene harbors the potential to be used as a multifunctional filler, as it can also increase the conductivity and weathering stability of elastomer matrices. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and oxidative agents can lead to the degradation of elastomers due to a multistep photooxidative process, including the formation of radicals. Carbon-based fillers have an influence on these reactions, as they can absorb UV radiation and act as radical scavengers.
This chapter summarizes the results of our larger project on multilayer graphene (MLG)/elastomer nanocomposites, previously published, which present a comprehensive case study of MLG as a multifunctional nanofiller in elastomer/graphene nanocomposites. Different elastomeric matrices are compared in order to demonstrate the outstanding impact of MLG as a general benefit. The dependency of this effect on concentration is discussed in detail. Taking into account the key role of dispersion, different mixing procedures are compared, evaluating a facile implementation of graphene nanocomposites into conventional rubber processing. Finally, the most probable commercial uses of MLG nanofillers in combination with conventional CB are studied. The nanocomposites were prepared in the kg scale in order to obtain enough specimens to investigate various properties of the uncured and vulcanized rubbers at the highest quality level, including rheology, curing, morphology, several mechanical properties, abrasion, conductivity, gas permeation, burning behavior, and weathering stability. The structure property relationships are asserted and questioned, for example, by investigating the radical scavenging ability or aspect ratio of the MLG. This chapter illustrates the state of the art of graphene/rubber nanocomposites targeted for commercial mass applications.
The quality of components made by laser beam melting (LBM) additive manufacturing is naturally influenced by the quality of the powder bed. A packing density <1 and porosity inside the powder particles lead to intrinsic voids in the powder bed. Since the packing density is determined by the particle size and shape distribution, the determination of these properties is of significant interest to assess the printing process. In this work, the size and shape distribution, the amount of the particle’s intrinsic porosity, as well as the packing density of micrometric powder used for LBM, have been investigated by means of synchrotron X-ray computed tomography (CT). Two different powder batches were investigated: Ti–6Al–4V produced by plasma atomization and stainless steel 316L produced by gas atomization. Plasma atomization particles were observed to be more spherical in terms of the mean anisotropy compared to particles produced by gas atomization. The two kinds of particles were comparable in size according to the equivalent diameter. The packing density was lower (i.e., the powder bed contained more voids in between particles) for the Ti–6Al–4V particles. The comparison of the tomographic results with laser diffraction, as another particle size measurement technique, proved to be in agreement.
Faser-Kunststoff-Verbunde (FKV) werden zunehmend in der Luft- und Raumfahrt, der Automobil- und Windenergieindustrie eingesetzt. Die hier entwickelten Bauteile sind oft nicht nur multiaxialen mechanischen Belastungen, sondern auch hohen klimatischen Beanspruchungen ausgesetzt. Einsatztemperaturen zwischen -60°C und 100°C bei 10-90% relativer Feuchte sind keine Seltenheit, in der Raumfahrt sind die thermischen Belastungen noch extremer. Die Auswirkungen einer Wechselwirkung extremer klimatischer Beanspruchungen mit multiaxialen mechanischen Belastungen wurden bisher kaum betrachtet. Das Ziel des Projektes ist die Untersuchung des Ermüdungsverhaltens der Faser-Kunststoff-Verbunde in Abhängigkeit von multiaxialer mechanischer Belastung, Temperatur und Feuchte. Dazu werden umfangreiche experimentelle Untersuchungen an Flach- und Rohrproben sowie numerische und analytische Berechnungen durchgeführt.
Im Rahmen des Seminarvortrags wird eine mikromechanische Modellierung der thermischen Eigenspannungen innerhalb des FKV vorgestellt, welche anhand eines Finite-Elemente-Modells validiert wird. Zur Bestimmung einer Schädigungsgrenze werden verschiedene Energieansätze diskutiert, welche anschließend mit den experimentell erhaltenen Ergebnissen im Temperaturbereich zwischen -60 °C und 70 °C verglichen werden. Dabei wird gezeigt, dass mithilfe der mikromechanischen Formulierung eine temperaturunabhängige Masterschädigungslinie für quasistatisch belastete Probekörper abgeleitet werden kann. Des Weiteren können Elastizitäten und Festigkeiten in Abhängigkeit der Temperatur mit den mikromechanischen Mischungsregeln bestimmt werden. So kann der experimentelle Aufwand beim Nachweis thermomechanisch belasteter Strukturen reduziert werden. Ein ähnlicher Ansatz wird für schwingende Ermüdungsbelastung bei verschiedenen Umgebungstemperaturen diskutiert und experimentell überprüft.
Absorption edge tomography is a method which exploits the sudden change of the attenuation coefficient, when the photon energy crosses the absorption edge of an element. The beamline BAM line at BESSY II, which is operated by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, can provide a monochromatized beam in a photon energy range from 5 keV up to 80 keV with a bandwidth of 2%. Together with the microtomography setup, this enables differential tomography sensitive to any element with N >= 24 (Cr) by using an appropriate K- or L-edge in this range. Here, a polymer filament embedding metal organic framework (MOF) was prepared and used for 3D printing. Absorption edge tomography at the copper K edge was employed to perform a non-destructive 3D characterization of the microstructure of the embedded MOF. Data fusion was then used to determine the size distribution of the embedded MOF.

Prozessindustrie Gemeinsam Digital – Forschungsbedarf für die Digitalisierung der Prozessindustrie
(2019)
Die Digitale Transformation durchdringt weite Teile der Industrie mit einer zunehmenden Vernetzung und Digitalisierung entlang der Wertschöpfungskette.
Basierend auf dem Whitepaper der DECHEMA „Digitalisierung in der Chemieindustrie“ entsteht die Vision eines gläsernen Apparates mit einem zeitlich, räumlich und methodisch dichtem Monitoring der Betriebszustände, das eine daten- und modellbasierte Optimierung transienter oder instationärer Prozesse (das heißt An-/Abfahren, Laständerungen, etc.) erlaubt. Auch der nicht bestimmungsmäßige Betrieb von Apparaten oder Modulen wird zuverlässig erkannt. Basis ist hier die Implementierung von innovativer Messtechnik und neuartigen Sensoren in Kombination mit der Anwendung datengetriebener oder rigoroser Modelle zur Prozesssimulation und -kontrolle.
Anlagen, die auf diesem Konzept basieren, lassen sich sicher an Stabilitäts- bzw. Kapazitätsgrenzen und mit höherem Durchsatz betreiben. Trotz schwankender Rohstoffqualitäten kann eine gleichbleibende Zielqualität der Produkte mit rentablen Qualitätssicherungskosten garantiert werden. Dazu ist eine Vernetzung über weitere Branchen (Softwareingenieure, MSR-Technik, Betreiber, Hersteller) notwendig. Sie ergänzt komplementär die ENPRO-Initiative mit Themen der modularen Anlagenplanung und -konstruktion und modular verteilter Intelligenz. Ein Digitalisierungsbedarf besteht auch für bereits vorhandenen Anlagenbestand bzw. zukünftig nicht modular gestalteter Produktionsapparate der chemischen Industrie, um auch dort einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Ressourcen- und Energieeffizienz zu leisten.

We have applied laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) with subcellular resolution as an elemental mass microscope to investigate the distributions of Ag nanoparticles (NP) in a 3-dimentional multicellular spheroid (MCS) model. The production of MCS has been optimized by changing the seeding cell number (500 to 40,000 cells) and the growth period (1 to 10 days). Incubations of MCS with Ag nanoparticle suspensions were performed with a concentration of 5 µg mL-1 for 24 hours. Thin-sections of the Eosin stained MCS were analysed by elemental mass microscopy using LA-ICP-MS to image distributions of 109Ag, 31P, 63Cu, 66Zn and 79Br. A calibration using NP suspensions was applied to convert the measured Ag intensity into the number of particles being present in each measurement pixel. The numbers of NP determined ranged from 30 up to 4,000 particles in an enrichment zone. The particle distribution was clearly correlated to 31P, 66Zn and 79Br and was localized in an outer rim of proliferating cells (confirmed by DAPI) with a width of about two-single cell diameters. For the highest seeding cell number NPs were only detected in this outer rim, whereas small molecules as for instance 79Br and 109Ag ions were detected in the core of the MCS as well. Aniline blue staining demonstrated that this outer rim was rich in collagen structures in which fibroblast cells were embedded and a thin-membrane was visible which separated the core from the biological active cell layer functioning as biological barriers for NP transport. In this presentation, we will show the possibility using this 3-dimensional model for toxicological and medical applications.

The industrial use of ultrashort laser pulses has made considerable progress in recent years. The reasons for this lie in the availability of high average powers at pulse repetition rates in the several 100 kHz range. The advantages of using ultrashort laser pulses in terms of processing precision can thus be fully exploited. However, high laser intensities on the workpiece can also lead to the generation of unwanted X-rays. Even if the emitted X-ray dose per pulse is low, the accumulated X-ray dose can become significant for high-repetition-rate laser systems so that X-ray exposure safety limits must be considered. The X-ray emission during ultrashort pulse laser processing was investigated for a pulse duration of 925 fs at 1030 nm wavelength and 400 kHz repetition rate. Industrially relevant materials such as steel, aluminum and glass were treated. Tungsten served as reference. X-ray spectra were recorded, and X-ray dose measurements were performed for laser treatment in air. For laser intensities > 2 × 10^13 W/cm2, X-ray doses exceeding the regulatory exposure limits for members of the public were found. Suitable X-ray protection strategies are proposed.
Correlating the photoluminescence (PL) properties of nanomaterials like semiconductor nanocrystals (QDs) and upconversion nanocrystals (UCNPs) assessed in ensemble studies and at the single particle level is increasingly relevant for applications of these nanomaterials in the life sciences like bioimaging studies or their use as reporters in microfluidic assays. Here we present a comparison of the spectroscopic properties of ensembles and single emitters for QDs like II/VI QDs and cadmium-free AIS/ZnS QDs as well as different UCNPs. The overall goal of this study was to derive particle architectures well suited for spectroscopic and microscopic applications.
The talk gives a historical introduction and introduces some of the biggest and most important research institutes in Germany dealing with tribology at Universities, scientific societies and companies. Some examples for research projects and focus areas are given. As an example for a research institute with a long history in tribological research the activities of BAM in Berlin are presented.
Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) are a well established material in lightweight applications, e.g. in automotive, aerospace or wind energy. The FRP components are subjected to multiaxial mechanical as well as hygrothermal loads. Common operation temperatures are in the range of 213 K and 373 K (-60 °C and 100 °C) at a relative humidity of 10% to 90%. In spacecraft applications, the environmental conditions are even more extreme. However, the correlation between multiaxial mechanical loading and harsh environment conditions have to-date not been investigated in detail. The project aims to investigate the fatigue behavior of FRPs dependent on multiaxial mechanical loading, temperature, and humidity. Extensive experimental testing is performed on flat plate and cylindrical tube specimens, accompanied by numerical and analytical calculations.
Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Compared to traditional batch processes, intensified continuous production allows the synthesis of new and difficult producible compounds with better product uniformity and reduced consumption of raw materials and energy. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce various products using the same equipment with short down-times between campaigns, and quick introduction of new products to the market.
Full automation is a prerequisite to realize such benefits of intensified continuous plants. In continuous flow processes, continuous, automated measurements and closed-loop control of the product quality are required. Consequently, the demand for smart sensors, which can monitor key variables like component concentrations in real-time, is increasing. Low-Field NMR spectroscopy presents itself as such an upcoming smart sensor (as addressed, e.g., in the CONSENS project1,2).
Systems utilizing such an online NMR analyzer benefits through short development and set-up times when applied to modular production plants starting from a desired chemical reaction. As an example for such a modular process unit, we present the design and validation of an integrated NMR micro mixer based on computational modelling suited for a desired chemical reaction. This method includes a proper design of a continuous reactor, which is optimized through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for the demands of the NMR sensor as well as for the given reaction conditions. The system was validated with a chemical reaction process.
Avoid living dangerously: non-destructive characterization of AM parts from powder to end-of-life
(2019)
The freeform and the revolutionary design possibilities offered by additive manufacturing have skyrocketed the amount of optimization studies in the realm of engineering, and metallic additive manufactured parts are becoming a reality in industry.
Not surprisingly, this has not been paralleled by a similar enthusiastic wave in the realm of materials science, and still very little is known about AM materials properties. This has the consequence that, typically, conventional materials properties are still used in design and even in simulations.
lt is necessary to dig a lot deeper than at present, in order to understand these new materials classes, and in particular their microstructure and their intemal stresses, largely different from their cast or wrought companions.
Using non-optimum combination of manufacturing parameters in selective laser melting (SLM) may lead to reduction of quality of component: defects generation, distortion of geometry and even cracking. Usually, the optimization of parameters is performed by changing volumetric energy density (Ev) and selecting parameters giving low porosity values. However, not only low porosity but also stable microstructure and low residual stresses will help to achieve advanced mechanical behavior of the component.
In present work, we investigated cuboid-shaped Ti-6Al-4V samples produced with different manufacturing parameters. The parameters leading to the same Ev were considered as well as parameters which are not included in Ev. Residual stresses in subsurface region were investigated by synchrotron X-ray diffraction, which allows to penetrate around 100 µm from the surface therefore overcome the problem of high roughness of SLM components without additional sample preparation. Only tensile stresses were found along the building direction, that can play critical role especially during cyclic loading. In parallel, using X-ray computed tomography we also observe that porosity is mainly concentrated in the contour region, except in case where the laser speed is small. However, by using some process parameters it was possible to decrease residual stresses and obtain uniform α+β Ti microstructure and relatively low porosity. Additionally, it was found that not included in Ev (e.g., base plate position, focus distance) should be considered as additional manufacturing parameters during SLM process.
The porosity and the surface roughness are recently discussed problems for SLM parts. The influence of SLM process parameters on porosity is well studied for different materials. Nevertheless, the build angle (i.e. the angle between part orientation and build plate) needs to be understood as an additional SLM process parameter, as it has been shown, that the microstructure and hence the mechanical performance of various materials depend on the build angle. The inherent build angle of each strut as a part of a lattice structure is the motivation to investigate the influence of the build angle on the porosity and roughness on round-shaped (1 mm diameter) struts by means of CT. Conventional Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) has the limitation towards small and round shaped samples. The need for Computed Tomography (CT) regarding investigations of SLM parts will increase because no other non-destructive technique allows the assessment of complex geometries with inner laying surfaces. We used CT to assess the pores and the strut surface. Seven struts out of the nickel alloy Inconel 625 with build angles from 30° to 90° were studied. It was found that the number of pores is smaller, and the size of pores is larger for the 90° strut. In case of 30° strut, the number of pores is increased towards down-skin side, additionally, this strut orientation showed to have the largest number of attached powder particles. The elongated pores exist exclusively near the strut surface. While the roughness at the down-skin surface is highly depending of the biud angle, the roughness at the up-skin surface is the same for all struts. The mechanisms of pore and surface roughness formation is not mainly driven by gravity.
Metallene Konstruktionswerkstoffe reagieren infolge ihres thermodynamisch instabilen Zustandes mehr oder weniger stark mit Stoffen aus der Umgebung. Eine große Rolle bei diesen Reaktionen spielt das Feuchtigkeitsangebot an der Metalloberfläche, welches nicht zwingend mit einem sichtbaren Wasserfilm einhergehen muss. An der Atmosphäre bilden sich an sauberen Metalloberflächen bei etwa 80 % relativer Luftfeuchte, bei versalzten Oberflächen auch schon ab etwa 25 % r. F., Feuchtfilme aus. Im Feuchtfilm laufen grundsätzlich die gleichen elektrochemischen Reaktionen ab, wie diese von wässrigen Medien bekannt sind. Dabei geht das Metall zunächst in Ionenform und in nachgelagerten Reaktionen in einen thermodynamisch stabilen Zustand in Form unterschiedlichster Oxid- und Hydroxidverbindungen über. Die so entstehenden Korrosionsprodukte können im Feuchtigkeitsfilm begrenzt löslich oder unlöslich sein und lagern sich auf den Oberflächen der Konstruktionswerkstoffe häufig als feste Korrosionsprodukte ab bzw. wachsen dort auf. Je nachdem wie die Korrosionsprodukte strukturell zum Untergrund passen, können sich dichte, sehr gut haftende Schichten ausbilden oder poröse, dicke Schichten ohne nennenswerte Haftung aufwachsen. Wachsen dichte, porenfreie Schichten mit guter Haftung auf, die im umgebenden Medium unlöslich sind, wird die weitere Auflösung des Metalls stark gehemmt. Man spricht dann von der Ausbildung schützender Deckschichten bzw. von Passivschichten auf welcher der Korrosionsschutz und damit die Dauerhaftigkeit vieler Konstruktionswerkstoffe beruhen. Kaesche bezeichnete die Passivität sehr treffend als „optimalen Grenzfall des Korrosionsschutzes durch Schichten von Korrosionsprodukten“. Aus technischer Sicht hält Kaesche eine Unterscheidung von Deckschichten bzw. Passivschichten für nicht zwingend erforderlich, da beide die Korrosionsgeschwindigkeit in gleichem Maß herabsetzen können. Die Übergänge zwischen den meist dickeren und dadurch sichtbaren Deckschichten und den meist dünnen, nicht sichtbaren Passivschichten sind fließend.
Due to its advantages of being a direct comparison method, quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) becomes more and more popular in industry. While conventional high-field NMR systems are often associated with high investment and operational costs, the upcoming market of permanent-magnet based benchtop NMR systems show a considerable option for a lot of applications. The mobility of these systems allows to bring them more closely to the real production environment, e.g. for at-line quality control.
In this work we present an interlaboratory comparison study investigating the qNMR performance of state-of-the-art benchtop NMR spectrometers. Therefore, BAM prepared two samples of a mixture of NMR reference standards tetramethylbenzene (TMB) and tetrachloronitrobenzene (TCNB) at concentration levels of 200 mM and 10 mM. These “ready-to-use” samples were sent to participant laboratories, which performed analysis on their benchtop NMR equipment of different vendors and fields from 43 to 80 MHz. Raw data was reported back and further investigated by using different data analysis methods at BAM.
After this very first qNMR comparison study of benchtop NMR spectrometers show promising results, following studies are planned to cover more parts of the qNMR process, e.g. sample preparation and weighing, but also data analysis, as commonly done in similar studies for high-field NMR spectroscopy in industry and metrology.
Improvement in deep process understanding is a mandatory prerequisite for the application of modern concepts like Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or “Industrie 4.0”. The direct hyphenation with online methods of process analytical technology (PAT) allows profound insights into the actual reactions within chemical and pharmaceutical production steps and provides necessary information for associated advanced control strategies.
While the industrial application of online Raman spectroscopy has already been successfully demonstrated, low-field NMR spectroscopy is not yet adequately developed as a robust online method for use in process industry. The high information content combined with the low calibration effort makes NMR spectroscopy a highly promising method for modern process automation with a high flexibility due to short set-up times and novel calibration concepts. This is a major advantage compared to other analytical methods, especially regarding multi-purpose plant strategies, as well as processes suffering from fluctuating quality of raw materials.
The work presented here focusses on the heterogeneous catalyzed hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol, as a step of the synthesis of industrially important solvent tetrahydrofuran. This reaction is proceeding via an intermediate product and suffers from competitive reaction paths. In this application, online NMR and Raman spectroscopy were combined with data from classical process sensors, e.g., pressure, temperature, and flow transducers in a highly automated setup for the development of innovative control concepts.
The transition from the current automation landscape to next generation automation concepts for the process industry has already begun. Smart functions of sensors simplify their use and enable plug-and-play integration, even though they may appear to be more complex at first sight. Monitoring specific information (i.e., “chemical” such as physico-chemical properties, chemical reactions, etc.) is the key to “chemical” process control. Here we introduce our smart online NMR sensor module provided in an explosion proof housing as example.
Due to NMR spectroscopy as an “absolute comparison method”, independent of the matrix, it runs with very short set-up times in combination with “modular” spectral models. These are based on pure component NMR spectra without the need for tedious calibrations runs. We present approaches from statistical, (i.e., Partial Least Squares Regression) to physically motivated models (i.e., Indirect Hard Modelling).
Based on concentration measurements of reagents and products by the NMR analyser a continuous production and direct loop process control were successfully realized for several validation runs in a modular industrial pilot plant and compared to conventional analytical methods (HPLC, near infrared spectroscopy). The NMR analyser was developed for an intensified industrial process funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (“Integrated CONtrol and SENsing”, www.consens-spire.eu).

Seismic methods are increasingly used to improve ultrasonic imaging and monitoring of concrete. At BAM, we are research mainly the use of Reverse Time Migration to get better images from ultrasonic echo data of thick, complex concrete structures. Coda wave interferometry is used to detect subtle changes in concrete constructions, e. g. using embedded ultasonic transducers.
Additive manufacturing (AM) opens the route to a range of novel applications. However, the complexity of the manufacturing process poses a challenge to produce defect-free parts with a high reliability. Since process dynamics and resulting microstructures of AM parts are strongly influenced by the involved temperature fields and cooling rates, thermography is a valuable tool for process monitoring. Another approach to monitor the energy input into the part during process is the use of optical tomography.
Common visual camera systems reach much higher spatial resolution than infrared thermography cameras, whereas infrared thermography provides a much higher temperature dynamic. Therefore, the combined application increases the depth of information. Here, we present first measurement results using a laser beam melting setup that allows simultaneous acquisition of thermography and optical tomography from the same point of view using a beam splitter. A high-resolution CMOS camera operating in the visible spectral range is equipped with a near infrared bandpass filter and images of the build plate are recorded with long-term exposure during the whole layer exposing time. Thus, areas that reach higher maximum temperature or are at elevated temperature for an extended period of time appear brighter in the images. The used thermography camera is sensitive to the mid wavelength infrared range and records thermal videos of each layer exposure at an acquisition rate close to 1 kHz.
As a next step, we will use computer tomographic data of the built part as a reference for defect detection.
This research was funded by BAM within the focus area Materials.
Chemical companies must find new paths to successfully survive in a changing environment. The potential of digital technologies belongs to these. Flexible and modular chemical plants can produce various high-quality products using multi-purpose equipment with short down-times between campaigns and reduce time to market for new products. Intensified continuous production plants allow for difficult to produce compounds.
Therefore, fully automated “chemical” process control along with real-time quality control are prerequisites to such concepts and thus should be based on “chemical” information. The advances of a fully automated NMR sensor were exploited, using a given pharmaceutical lithiation reaction as an example process within a modular pilot plant. A commercially available benchtop NMR spectrometer was integrated to the full requirements of an automated chemical production environment such as , e.g., explosion safety, field communication, and robust evaluation of sensor data. It was thereof used for direct loop advanced process control and real-time optimization of the process. NMR appeared as preeminent online analytical tool and allowed using a modular data analysis tool, which even served as reliable reference method for further PAT applications.
In future, such fully integrated and intelligently interconnecting “smart” systems and processes can speed up the high-quality production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
The thermoelectric properties of Sr1-xBixTiO3-δ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.07) have been investigated. Dense ceramics of Sr1-xBixTiO3-δ and Sr0.95TiO3-δ have been prepared by solid-state reaction and conventional sintering in air followed by annealing in a reducing atmosphere. XRD and SEM analyses show that the rutile TiO2 in Sr0.95TiO3 formed after sintering becomes Magnéli phase of TinO2n-1 after annealing. Moreover, Bi resolves from Sr1-xBixTiO3 after annealing, resulting in the formation of Sr1-xBixTiO3-δ/Bi/TinO2n-1 composites. With increasing Bi content in Sr1-xBixTiO3-δ, the electrical conductivity increases while the absolute values of the Seebeck coefficient decrease as a result of increasing carrier concentration. The thermal conductivity of SrTiO3-δ is reduced by doping Bi up to x = 0.07. Highest ZT ~ 0.13 is obtained in Sr0.93Bi0.07TiO3-δ at 1000 K.
Polymers at interfaces play a major role in a broad variety of applications ranging from engineering purposes (for instance polymer based nanocomposites) to high tech implications (for instance light emitting diodes).
Here, thin films with thicknesses down to few nanometers are prepared on different substrates as model systems for polymer composites. The thin films are investigated by a combination of surface analytical and volume sensitive methods. As surface analytical methods atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and contact angle measurements (CAM) are employed. As volume sensitive broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS), specific heat spectroscopy (SHS), and ellipsometry are used. Especially attention is paid to understand the glass transition behavior of thin films because the glass transition is the key phenomenon determines the application of polymers also in thin films.
To understand the glass transition behavior of thin films, which is controversially discussed in literature, a three layer model is discussed. Firstly, a mobile surface layer is assumed at polymer air interface of the film due to missing of segment/segment interactions. Secondly, in the middle of the film a bulk-like layer should be expected. Thirdly, for polymers having non-repulsive interactions with the substrate an irreversibly adsorbed layer is expected to be formed. Due the adsorption the molecular mobility of the segments in this layer is slowed down. What is measured for the glass transition of thin films is a complicated average of all of these effects. The different layers are hardly to address separately. Therefore, in the presentation especially model systems are selected and investigated to verify the layer model.
The laser implantation technique bases on a localized dispersing of ceramic particles in metallic surface layers for changing their micro geometry as well as their material properties. Using TiB2 and NbC hard particles, tailored microtextures consisting of elevated dome-, ring-, or line-shaped Features can be manufactured. Especially TiB2 implants feature high hardness values up to 1800 HV1 and ceramic particle contents up to 55 %, indicating superior wear resistant properties.
Treatment and reusing of hazardous wastes have become significant issues of modern societies. Blast furnace sludge (BFS) and electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) are such typical wastes, because they usually contain high amounts of undesirable elements such as zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb).
These elements can cause operational problems in reusing of BFS and EAFD. In this study, the Ferro Duo GmbH and the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing have investigated a novel approach for eliminating and/or recovering Zn and Pb from both wastes. Applied was a selective chlorination and volatilization of Zn and Pb as chlorides at temperatures between 500 °C and 1100 °C. Both product obtained, Zn and Pb in the form of ZnCl2 and PbCl2 and the purified solid mineral compound are attractive materials for further use. Hydrochloric acid and iron(II) chloride were used as chlorination agents. Exceptionally high Zn and Pb removal efficiencies of >99.5 % could be achieved with both chlorination agents, whereby iron(II) chloride exhibited better performance.
