Thermodynamic Simulation of Precipitation Phase Evolution in 2324 Aluminum Alloy by Jmat Pro by ZHAO Ming-ming, GUO Er-jun, FENG Yi-cheng, FU Jin-lai, WANG Li-ping, FU Yuan-ke

“…The results show that the phase composition of 2324 aluminum alloy at room temperature is 88.02% α(Al), 7.28% S(Al2CuMg), 2.45% Al6Mn, 1.35% Al2Cu, 0.63% E(AlCrMgMn) and 0.27% Mg2Si, among which S phase is the main strengthening phase.The metastable phase of the alloy is S′ phase, Q′ phase and η′ phase, among which S′ phase is the main strengthening phase during the aging process.The TTT curve calculation show that during the heat treatment, the tip temperatures of GP zone, η′, S′, η(MgZn2) and S phase increase successively, which are 170℃, 300℃, 350℃, 360℃ and 420℃ respectively, and the corresponding incubation times are 5.45s, 40.91s, 15.23s, 920.62s and 305.83s respectively The CCT curve calculation shows that the critical cooling rates of GP zone, η′, S′, η(MgZn2) and S phase without precipitation during heat treatment are 0.95℃/s, 1.72℃/s, 5.22℃/s, 0.16℃/s and 0.90℃/s respectively.When aging at 190℃, the precipitation amount of S′ phase is larger, and the complete aging time is shorter.When the aging time is 5~10h, the strengthening phase content is higher, and there is also a certain content for GP zone.Therefore, by the above results, the optimal heat treatment process can be obtained: the cooling rate of the cooling medium is greater than 5.22℃/s in the solid solution treatment, the solid solution transfer time of the sample is less than 5.45s, and the aging temperature and time are respectively set at 190℃ and 5~10h.…”

Inhibitory Effect of Different Biopreservatives on Repeated Freeze-thaw Oxidation in Tibetan Sheep by Hongyan DING, Zhenzhen YUAN, Guangjin YAN, Ke GAO, Lijuan HAN, Shengnan SUN, Shengzhen HOU

“…The objective of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of chitosan (CHI), lysozyme (LYS), and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on lipid and myofibrillar protein (MP) oxidation during the repeated freeze-thaw process of Tibetan sheep meat. Five freeze-thaw cycles were conducted after spraying biopreservatives on the longest muscle of Tibetan sheep, and then the indicators of peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid value, carbonyl content, sulfhydryl content, surface hydrophobicity, turbidity, solubility, and other sample characteristics during the freeze-thaw process were measured and analyzed. …”
