The cardanol furfural based epoxy resin was prepared by reacting cardanol furfural based novolac resin with molar excess of epichlorohydrin, in basic medium, at 120°C. The cardanol furfural based novolac resin was synthesized by reacting cardanol and furfural in the molar ratios viz. 1.

Ces phases sont synthétisées par ablation des phases MAX dont la flexibilité de composition permet l'optimisation de leurs propriétés et de celles des phases MXènes associées. Dans ces travaux, la synthèse de la phase MAX M2AlC par décharge électrique et Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) à partir des poudres d'éléments M (métal de transition : Ti, Zr ou Hf), Al et C a été réalisée. Pour augmenter la proportion de la phase ciblée dans les échantillons et limiter la proportion de phases secondaires, les paramètres de synthèse ont été optimisés. L'optimisation de l'intensité de l'arc et la durée de chauffage dans le four à arc a été réalisée pour obtenir la composition désirée, c'est-à-dire avec une proportion...

Due to these very severe conditions, the materials degrade over time, their properties change, leading to reduced performance and ultimately to the failure and the ruin of the associated structure, increasing the cost of operation. Accurate in-situ measurements are required in order to select the materials (development and qualification stages with SFERA-III Research Infrastructures) or improve their lifetime and the optimal operation of a solar plant (commercial stage). However, the health evaluation of solar receivers is typically observed subjectively during downtime at...

The extreme thermal stress conditions to which the tower receivers may be submitted raise the question of the ability of these components to efficiently perform over extended periods of time. Conventional methods commonly used to assess the mechanical stability and lifetime of these components involve laboratory testing, which suffers from the fundamental inability of these methods to effectively reproduce the real operating conditions. In this work, we suggest an original set-up based upon the use of acoustic emission for in-situ thermomechanical investigation of receiver materials exposed to concentrated solar irradiation, named IMPACT (In-situ thermo-Mechanical Probe by ACoustic Tracking). The ability of this set-up to precisely track the nature, the location and the dynamics of mechanical defects in the receiver material ...
