Ferrimagnetic 120 degrees magnetic structure in Cu2OSO4

Helmuth Berger, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Lin Yang, Gregory Scott Tucker, Nicola Casati, Virgile Yves Favre

We report magnetic properties of a 3d(9) (Cu2+) magnetic insulator Cu2OSO4 measured on both powder and single crystal. The magnetic atoms of this compound form layers whose geometry can be described either as a system of chains coupled through dimers or as ...

Mixed-linker UiO-66: structure-property relationships revealed by a combination of high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations

Berend Smit, Nicola Casati, Davide Tiana

The use of mixed-linker metal-organic frameworks (MIXMOFs) is one of the most effective strategies to modulate the physical-chemical properties of MOFs without affecting the overall crystal structure. In many instances, MIXMOFs have been recognized as soli ...

Polymer derived silicon oxycarbide ceramic monoliths: Microstructure development and associated materials properties

Demetri Psaltis, Eirini Kakkava, Nicola Casati, Giulia Panusa

Polymer derived SiOC and SiCN ceramics (PDCs) are interesting candidates for additive manufacturing techniques to develop micro sized ceramics with the highest precision. PDCs are obtained by the pyrolysis of crosslinked polymer precursors at elevated temp ...

Operando X-ray diffraction during laser 3D printing

Steven Van Petegem, Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati, Samy Hocine

Laser based additive manufacturing allows to build a designed shape layer-by-layer, offering versatility and flexibility to many metallurgical sectors. The fast cooling rates and repeated heat cycles depending on the laser and scanning parameters are not e ...

The effect of stress triaxiality on the phase transformation in transformation induced plasticity steels: Experimental investigation and modelling the transformation kinetics

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati

In situ multiaxial loading during neutron diffraction tests were undertaken on a low-alloyed Quenched and Partitioning (Q&P) Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) Bainitic Ferrite (TBF) steel with dispersed austenite particles. The effect of stress tria ...

In situ characterization of a high work hardening Ti-6Al-4V prepared by electron beam melting

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati, Karl Alan Sofinowski

A multi-phase Ti-6Al-4V prepared by electron beam melting and thermal post treatments has been shown to exhibit increased strength and ductility over standard wrought or hot isostatic pressed Ti-6-Al-4V. The mechanical improvements are due to a prolonged, ...

Pressure stabilization effect on the donor-acceptor polyiodide chains in tetraethylammonium bis(diiodine) triiodide - insights from Raman spectroscopy

Nicola Casati, Tomasz Poreba

Polyiodides present high bonding flexibility already at ambient conditions, and undergo significant pressure-induced structural deformations. Resonant Raman spectroscopy has been widely used to study I-I bonds in various polyiodides, but it carries a risk ...

A miniaturized selective laser melting device for operando X-ray diffraction studies

Steven Van Petegem, Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati, Samy Hocine

We report on the development of a miniaturized device for operando X-ray diffraction during laser 3D printing. The printing chamber has a size of only 130 x 135 x 34 mm(3) and is optimized to be installed at synchrotron beamlines. We describe the design co ...

Phase Studies of Additively Manufactured Near Beta Titanium Alloy-Ti55511

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati

The effect of electron-beam melting (EBM) and selective laser melting (SLM) processes on the chemical composition, phase composition, density, microstructure, and microhardness of as-built Ti55511 blocks were evaluated and compared. The work also aimed to ...

Deformation and degradation of superelastic NiTi under multiaxial loading

Steven Van Petegem, Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati, Wei-Neng Hsu

The degradation of the superelastic properties of a commercial NiTi alloy is studied during uniaxial, biaxial and load-path-change cycling performed in-situ with synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Careful examination of the diffraction pattern during uniaxial ...
