Synthesis and structural study of the Linde Type-A zeolite prepared from kaolinite by Szilvia Ormándi, István Dódony

“…The goal of this work is to synthesize and measure the crystal structuras of sodalite-related zeolites using X-ray power diffraction technique. We made a successful attempt to recover the Linde Type A (LTA) zeolite framework using X-ray diffraction data sets. …”

Friction properties of C-containing ceramic coatings on an Mg-Li alloy by ZHANG Yu-lin, ZHU Xin-bin, YU Pei-hang, ZUO You, ZHANG You, CHEN Fei

“…The surface morphologies, roughness, hardness, and phase compositions were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), a Vickers hardness test, and X-ray power diffraction (XRD). At room temperature, the tribological properties of the ceramic coatings were evaluated by friction and wear tests. …”

Exopolysaccharides from Rhizobium Tropici modified the surface characteristics of a Mississippi River Levee soil clay and its bulk soil properties by Lucas A. Walshire, Huimin Zhang, Xinyun Xie, Steven L. Larson, Charles A. Weiss, Jr, Zachary H. Nick, Benjamin R. Breland, Ethan T. Vroman, Fengxiang X. Han

“…Soil samples were collected from a levee embankment located in south of Vidalia LA, an area historically prone to slough slides due to highly plastic nature of its floodplain clay soils. X-ray Power Diffraction was used to characterize the mineralogy of soil clay, EPS and EPS-clay composites. …”

Analysis on High Temperature Corrosion of Water-Wall in a 440 t/h Boiler Under Low-NOx Combustion Mode by Yibin WANG, Sicong ZHANG, Houzhang TAN, Guohui LIN, Meng WANG, Xuchao LU, Hao YANG

“…The corrosive products that were collected from water-wall tubes close to burners at the lowest layer in a 440 t/h coal-fired furnace, were characterized by various technology methods including X-Ray Fluorescence spectrum (XRF), X-Ray power Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersive System (SEM-EDS), for the analysis and discussion of the formation of corrosive products and enrichments of trace elements. …”
