This study aims at improving the detection of near-surface defects in magnetizable and conductive specimens by combining the measurements of eddy current, magnetic flux leakage and thermography testing. Different signal processing methods for data normalization are proposed to enable data fusion at the pixel level. These methods are applied to a test specimen which contains 10 variably-sized defects. We quantitatively evaluate the performances of a total of 29 detection methods with respect to false alarm reduction at a fixed level of true positive rate. We report that false positive rate could be reduced from 1.65% down to 0.28% by the best multi-sensor method compared to the best single-sensor performance on the smallest defect, when 50% found flaw pixels are required for successful detection.
In the last years, new approaches for the evaluation of the corrosion resistance of martensitic stainless steels were developed, which allow nearly non-destructive as well as short-term corrosion testing. This work analyzes the sensitive influence of microstructure and surface treatment on the corrosion resistance. The effect of alloy composition and microstructure, which is always present in addition to the influence of various surface treatments will be evaluated and discussed. The corrosion behavior was investigated with conventional evaluation of the pitting potential, electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation (EPR), electrochemical noise (EN), and the 'KorroPad' (KP) technique. EPR provided information about the passivation ability and the extent of chromium content reduction due to chromium carbide precipitation in the microstructure. The use of EN and KP aims to detect the influence of different surface treatment parameters on the corrosion resistance in a nearly non-destructive way. Furthermore the results shall demonstrate the functionality and convenience of the short-term corrosion test methods EN and KP in order to gain more acceptance within the scientific community. The results will allow the extraction of surface treatment effects on the corrosion behavior of the martensitic stainless steels 1.4116, 1.4034, and 1.4021.
ln den letzten Jahren hat sich gezeigt, dass die Ermittlung des Schwellenwertes DeltaKth nach den bestehenden Standardvorschriften für verschiedene Materialien zu nichtkonservativen Werten führt. Das ergibt sich im Vergleich mit Schwellenwerten, die man mit Anrissen erhält, die hinsichtlich der Ober- und der Unterlast komplett im Druckbereich erzeugt wurden. Dort, wo die Diskrepanz auftritt, verstärkt sie sich mit abnehmendem Spannungsverhältnis. ln der vorliegenden Studie wurden an einem mittel- und einem hochfesten Stahl bei unterschiedlichen Spannungsverhältnissen Schwellenwerte bestimmt. Anwendung fanden die konventionelle Lastabsenkungsmethode nach ASTM-Standard und ein Verfahren, bei dem der Langrissscbwellenwert als Endpunkt der sogenannten Zyklischen R-Kurve erhalten wird. Dieses folgt im Wesentlichen der von Pippan et al. entwickelten Methode, ergänzt diese jedoch durch eine eigene Verfahrensvariante.
In Deutschland fallen aktuell über 5 Mio. Tonnen Hausmüllverbrennungsaschen (HMVA) pro Jahr an. Aus diesen werden nur ca. 8 % Metalle (davon ca. 1 % NE-Metalle) zurückgewonnen. Zur Beurteilung des Wertstoffpotentials werden die HMVA nach standardisierten Vorschriften beprobt, für die Analytik vorbehandelt/vorbereitet/aufgearbeitet und auf ihre Inhaltsstoffe analysiert. Im nachfolgenden Beitrag wird der Schwerpunkt auf die Probenvorbehandlung und -vorbereitung gelegt, wobei der Merkmalstransfer von der Ausgangs-(Feld-)Probe über die Laborprobe und die Prüfprobe bis zur Mess-(Analysen-) Probe am Beispiel von NE-Metallen einer nassaufbereiteten HMVA untersucht wurde. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit Hilfe statistischer Methoden bewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Verteilung der NE-Metalle in den einzelnen Schritten der Probenbehandlung elementspezifisch ist. Bei Blei ist ein Erhalt der Merkmalsverteilung über alle Behandlungsschritte erkennbar. Bei Kupfer nehmen die Konzentrationen in den aufeinander folgenden Behandlungsschritten deutlich ab. Die Ursache könnte das in der Feinfraktion enthaltene metallische Kupfer mit seinen spezifischen Eigenschaften sein. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 5 billion tons of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ashes (MSWI BA) are generated by incineration per year in Germany. Currently only 8 % of metals (of these 1 % are non-ferrous metals) are recovered from MSWI BA. For characterization of recovery potential, MSWI BA samples have to be taken, pre-treated and analyzed according to standardized methods. This manuscript focuses on sample pre-treatment and preparation of a MSWI BA sample aiming to investigate the characteristics transfer over the process of sub-sampling from the original (field) sample to the laboratory sample, test sample until the analytical sample. All results have been evaluated with statistical methods. The results show that influence of each single pre-treatment and preparation step on metal content differs for the individual metals. For lead a conservation of characteristics distribution can be observed, while for copper a continuous decline of solid concentration is observed over all preparation steps. One possible reason may be the fact that copper is mainly contained in the fine fraction as metallic copper with specific properties.
We report on the formation of polymer-stabilized superparamagnetic single-core and multi-core maghemite nanoparticles. The particle formation was carried out by coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) sulfate in a continuous aqueous process using a micromixer system. Aggregates containing 50 primary particles with sizes of 2 nm were formed at a reaction temperature of 30 °C. These particles aggregated further with time and were not stable. In contrast, stable single-core particles with a diameter of 7 nm were formed at 80 °C as revealed by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) coupled in-line with the micromixer for particle characterization. X-ray diffraction and TEM confirmed the SAXS results. X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy (XANES) identified the iron oxide phase as maghemite.
Particle size modality in bi-modal iron oxide suspensions was resolved by exploiting complex ac-susceptibility (ACS), small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and photon cross-correlation spectroscopy. To explain dynamic magnetic response of bi-modal suspensions, the Debye model was expanded to a linear superposition form allowing for the contribution of both particle fractions. This modified and adopted model is able to resolve the bi-modal particle size distributions. The SAXS curves of mono- and bi-modal suspensions were fitted well using a Monte Carlo simulation scheme, allowing the detection of bi-modal particle size distributions with high precision.
Resovist® originally developed as a clinical liver contrast agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging exhibits also an outstanding performance as a tracer in Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI). In order to study the physical mechanism of the high MPI performance of Resovist®, we applied asymmetric flow fieldflow fractionation (A4F) and static magnetic fractionation (SMF) to separate Resovist® into a set of fractions with defined size classes. As A4F based on an elution method separates MNP according to their hydrodynamic size, SMF fractionates a particle distribution by its magnetic moment. The obtained fractions of both separation techniques were then magnetically characterized by magnetorelaxometry measurements to extract the corresponding effective magnetic anisotropy and hydrodynamic size distribution parameters. Additionally, the MPI performance of each fraction was assessed using magnetic particle spectroscopy. With both separation techniques fractions (normalized to their iron amount) an MPI signal gain of a factor of two could be obtained, even though the distribution of effective anisotropy and hydrodynamic size were significantly different. Relating these findings to the results from magnetic characterization allows for a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of MPI performance of Resovist®. This knowledge may help to improve the design of novel MPI tracers and development of separation methods.
Shedding light onto the spectra of lime: Raman and luminescence bands of CaO, Ca(OH)2 and CaCO3
(2015)
In microscopy studies of 19th-century cement stone, we found free lime in the form of darkened spherical structures, as they were described in the literature already. When trying to determine their phase composition by Raman spectroscopy, we encountered contradictive assignments in literature spectra of the lime phases CaO, Ca(OH)2 and CaCO3 and observed strong spectral features that have been ignored or erroneously assigned so far. In this study we present Raman spectra of pure lime phases and of a naturally grown calcite crystal, burnt limestone (quick lime, mainly CaO), aged slaked lime putty (mainly Ca(OH)2), and carbonated lime putty (mainly CaCO3). Based on the results, we shed light mainly onto these two questions: (1) Does CaO have a Raman spectrum? (2) Which features in the spectra are luminescence bands that could be (and already have been) misinterpreted as Raman bands? We proof our assignment of luminescence bands in lime phases by using three different laser wavelengths for excitation, and give hypotheses on the origin of the luminescence as well as practical advices on how to identify these misleading features in Raman spectra. This article is mainly addressed to users of Raman spectroscopy in different fields of material analysis who might not be aware of the presence of interfering bands in their spectra.
Thermal ionisation, also known as surface ionisation, was one of the first ionisation techniques developed for mass spectrometry, having been invented as early as 1918. The ionization process, described by the empirically derived “fractionation laws”, is widely understood. Isotope ratio measurements can be achieved with high precision and accuracy. Due to this, thermal ionisation has paved the way for great scientific achievements including: the discovery of new isotopes, the determination of radioactive half-lives and atomic weights of the elements, the accurate determination of the age of the earth and investigations on human society in the past such as mobility and trade. TIMS is still regarded as ‘golden standard’ in isotope ratio measurements. Thus the method is a reference technique that remains at the forefront of isotopic analysis particularly in the fields of metrology. A concise overview is given here of the technical background of thermal ionisation as well as the numerous applications of this technique in earth sciences, industry, metrology, and nuclear forensics.
This paper indicates that the tribological behavior under dry sliding of a Fe3Al-niobium carbide (NbC) composite prepared by pyrometallurgical synthesis was compared to NbC-based hard metals bonded by cobalt or Fe3Al. The dry sliding wear resistance (0,1-7/10 m/s) of the present Fe3Al-NbC with ∼60% NbC was close to those known of NbC-based hard metals. No grain pull-outs or fragmentations of the NbC grains were seen in the wear tracks, as a metallurgical interphase was formed between matrix and NbC grains.
Measurement strategies
(2015)
Designing an appropriate measurement strategy for a particular analytical question is not always obvious, since a number of factors have to be considered, whereby some of them might be difficult to define. A set of key questions generally precede the experimental design in analytical measurements and help to choose the measurement strategy, which is fit for the intended use – in the particular case of the content of this book – either for quantification, elemental ratio or isotope ratio analyses, accordingly.
Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) is acquiring increasing commercial and socio-economic significance. For products and goods with high investment costs and a long lifespan, especially in the sectors of energy and transportation, a considerable portion of commercial profits are generated by after-sales services. In the field of research and development, not enough attention has been paid so far to tasks and approaches involving MRO. The field thus has a limited scientific background, despite a high potential in the business sector for technological and scientific optimization. The challenges and chances of MRO for sustainable enterprises will be explained with reference to the Fraunhofer Innovation Cluster Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul in Energy and Transport. The developments and project results of the four fields of innovation »Cleaning«, »Repair and Overhaul«, »Condition Monitoring and Diagnosis«, as well as »MRO Planning and Digital Assistance« will be explained.
