Squalane is the organic compound with the formula ((CH 3) 2 CH(CH 2) 3 CH(CH 3)(CH 2) 3 (CH 2) 3 CH(CH 3)(CH 2) 2) 2. A colorless hydrocarbon, it is the hydrogenated derivative of squalene, although commercial samples are derived from nature. [3] In contrast to squalene, due to the complete saturation of squalane, it is not subject to auto ...
The solidus temperature specifies the temperature below which a material is completely solid, [2] and the minimum temperature at which a melt can co-exist with crystals in thermodynamic equilibrium. Liquidus and solidus are mostly used for impure substances (mixtures) such as glasses , metal alloys , ceramics , rocks , and minerals .
Deformation affects the critical temperature. Increasing the magnitude of prior deformation, or reducing the deformation temperature, will increase the stored energy and the number of potential nuclei. As a result, the recrystallization temperature will decrease with increasing deformation. Initial grain size affects the critical temperature.
Tammann temperature was pioneered by German astronomer, solid-state chemistry, and physics professor Gustav Tammann in the first half of the 20th century. [1]: 152 He had considered a lattice motion very important for the reactivity of matter and quantified his theory by calculating a ratio of the given material temperatures at solid-liquid phases at absolute temperatures.
Forging temperature is the temperature at which a metal becomes substantially more soft, but is lower than the melting temperature, such that it can be reshaped by forging. [1] Bringing a metal to its forging temperature allows the metal's shape to be changed by applying a relatively small force, without creating cracks.
Isothermal transformation diagrams (also known as time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams) are plots of temperature versus time (usually on a logarithmic scale). They are generated from percentage transformation-vs time measurements, and are useful for understanding the transformations of an alloy steel at elevated temperatures.
Precipitation hardening, also called age hardening or particle hardening, is a heat treatment technique used to increase the yield strength of malleable materials, including most structural alloys of aluminium, magnesium, nickel, titanium, and some steels, stainless steels, and duplex stainless steel.
The most well-known form of Stefan problem involves melting via an imposed constant temperature at the left hand boundary, leaving a region [; ()] occupied by water. The melted depth, denoted by s ( t ) {\displaystyle s(t)} , is an unknown function of time.
