Comparison Of Salicyl Hydroxamate Adsorption On Rare Earth Phosphates To Oxides And Carbonates, Stephanie Trant
Comparison Of Salicyl Hydroxamate Adsorption On Rare Earth Phosphates To Oxides And Carbonates, Stephanie Trant
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
Adsorption behavior of the anionic collector salicyl hydroxamic acid (SHA) on a group of selected rare earth phosphates (REPs) was studied by means of experimental methods and modeling software. These REPs were then compared to rare earth carbonates (RECs) and rare earth oxides (REOs) to develop a trend. A suite of rare earth elements (REE) were studied that included light (LREE) and middle (MREE). Results for heavy (HREE) were inferred. Synthetic phosphate, oxide and carbonate powders of the rare earth elements Lanthanum (La), Cerium (Ce), Europium (Eu) and Dysprosium (Dy) were tested for these studies. Dysprosium phosphate was the only …
Surface Chemistry And Modelling Of Salicyl Hydroxamic Acid Adsorption At The Surface Of Rare Earth Oxides, Carbonates And Phosphates, Marc F. Sime
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
The adsorption mechanism of salicyl hydroxamic acid (SHA, C7H7O3N) on rare earth minerals was investigated using two complementary methods: precipitation studies and modelling. Precipitation studies showed that SHA adsorption occurs through a displacement of the hydroxide ion at the surface in an ion exchange mechanism, leading to surface precipitation and/or chemisorption. Surface precipitation predominates in the light rare earth oxides (LREOs), while chemisorption predominates in the heavier REOs. Modelling revealed that adsorption of SHA on the REM surface is dependent upon the orientation of SHA on the surface as well as the distance between rare earth elements sites on the …
Material Properties Of Laser Powder Bed Fusion Processed 316l Stainless Steel, Steven Keckler
Material Properties Of Laser Powder Bed Fusion Processed 316l Stainless Steel, Steven Keckler
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
Laser powder bed fusion additive manufactured 316L stainless steel specimens were evaluated to establish a baseline for future research in determining an optimized energy density and build orientation. Test specimens were printed at various energy densities. At each energy density, tensile and fatigue specimens were printed at 0o (longitudinal), 45o, and 90o (transverse) orientation to the build plate. Tensile and high cycle fatigue tests were performed then representative fracture surfaces were analyzed. The apparent melt track and dendrite size were evaluated using grain analysis software. Static loading of the tensile specimens showed a marginal difference in UTS for specimens with …
Novel Hybrid Perovskite Composites And Microstructures: Synthesis And Characterization, John P. Murphy
Novel Hybrid Perovskite Composites And Microstructures: Synthesis And Characterization, John P. Murphy
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
The water-energy nexus has been described as one of the great problems of our time. In an ever-growing society the demand for resources such as water and electricity often dictate the magnitude and direction of growth of society. Efficient generation of electricity, with minimal socioeconomic pushback, is paramount in the stable growth of our society. Solar energy harvesting is a strong candidate for the efficient generation of electrical energy with increasingly minimal resource use in fabrication. As manufacturing processes improve and novel materials are discovered/optimized, solar energy harvesting becomes a more economically viable means of energy generation. Hybrid perovskites (HPs) …
Characterization Of Process Induced Defects In Laser Powder Bed Fusion Processed Alsi10mg Alloy, Edward Stugelmayer
Characterization Of Process Induced Defects In Laser Powder Bed Fusion Processed Alsi10mg Alloy, Edward Stugelmayer
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
Additive manufacturing using laser powder bed fusion (AM-LPBF) methods have recently experienced rapid growth and development, having the potential to replace manufacturing by plastic deformation, precision machining, or casting. AM offers advantages such as the freedom to design highly complex geometries, time and cost savings through material usage efficiency and shortened production cycles, and the potential for improved mechanical properties. Process induced defects, however, result in degradation and scattering of mechanical properties and hinder the widespread adoption of AM-LPBF in industry. This investigation focuses on the effects of varying energy density and build orientation on the evolution of process induced …
Evaluation Of Metallurgical And Mechanical Properties Of Alsi10mg Produced By Selective Laser Melting, Luke J. Suttey
Evaluation Of Metallurgical And Mechanical Properties Of Alsi10mg Produced By Selective Laser Melting, Luke J. Suttey
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
Selective laser melting (SLM) additive manufacturing (AM) of metal powders has long been a focus in the study of AM due to the possibility of weight reduction, complex shape formation, and production cost savings. Although applicable to a variety of metals SLM AM of the AlSi10Mg alloy was studied in an attempt to characterize the effect of processing parameter and build angle variation on the final microstructural, fractographic, and mechanical properties of parts produced without any thermal post-processing techniques. Research was conducted on five build angles (0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°), and three Global Energy Densities (GED) (37.15, 45.39, …
Investigations Of Solid-State Sintering Behavior Of Binary Refractory Metal Oxide Systems, Maureen Chorney
Investigations Of Solid-State Sintering Behavior Of Binary Refractory Metal Oxide Systems, Maureen Chorney
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
Refractory metals are commonly alloyed for improved corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and strength. In service, these alloys form highly stable oxides under mildly oxidizing conditions at relatively low temperatures. In order to recycle these materials, high temperature electrochemical processing is required to reduce the refractory metal oxides. To abet experimental evaluation of the electrochemical reduction process under development at the Idaho National Laboratory, binary mixtures of selected refractory metal oxide powders were sintered to produce cathode pellets, which could be suspended in the molten salt electrolyte during reduction experiments. Preparatory literature review revealed a paucity of published information relative to …
High Fidelity Kinetic Model For Flotation: Applications To Rare Earth Elements And Copper/Molybdenum Separations, Richard Ladouceur
High Fidelity Kinetic Model For Flotation: Applications To Rare Earth Elements And Copper/Molybdenum Separations, Richard Ladouceur
Graduate Theses & Non-Theses
A high-fidelity kinetic model was developed to identify and elucidate the effects of varying principle froth flotation parameters on the sub-processes that occur within and between the flotation zones. Whereas traditional models fail to adequately address froth recovery and recovery by entrainment, the high-fidelity model defines these phenomena based on an improved understanding of the pulp/froth interface. Solution chemistry considerations that govern rare earth mineral separation by flotation were identified, characterized, and optimized. Application of novel surfactants such H205 and salicylhydroxamic acid (collectors) and dimethyl glycol monobutyl ether (depressant) was evaluated to define optimal flotation conditions. The effect of pressure …
