Cracking of Ti-6Al-4V in methanol solutions containing sulfates.

Whether cracking of unnotched Ti-6Al-4V specimens occurs in methanol containing H2SO4, Li2SO4, or Fe2(SO4)3 is a function of the age of the solution and the concentration of the sulfate. With H2SO4 concentrations of 0.10 N to 0.25 N, the methanol solutions lose their ability to crack the specimens with time after mixing and prior to exposure. The aging time required to inhibit the cracking varies inversely with the water content of the solution. With larger quantities of H2SO4, 0.5 N and 1 N, no cracking is observed. Interpretations of Raman spectroscopic studies of the aging solution suggests that the nature of the O-H group may play a role in the crack initiation or inhibiting mechanism.

Fundamental Mvssbauer Parameters of Hydrous Iron Sulfates

Hydrous iron sulfates, which form as alteration products of sulfides, are rare on Earth. On Mars, the low temperature and pH found in the martian permafrost create ideal conditions for the formation of this group of minerals [1], which includes such phases as coquimbite (Fe2(SO4) 9H2O) and amarantite (FeSO4(OH) 3H2O). Viking, Mars Pathfinder, MER and OMEGA data [e.g., [2]] have all indicated the presence of high sulfur contents on the surface of Mars, but the mineralogy of the sulfur-rich phases has not been well constrained. Recent work by [3] suggests that hydrous iron sulfates might satisfy the Martian thermal emission, vis-near IR, and M ssbauer spectra. These data suggest that sulfide and sulfate minerals might be significant contributors to all types of spectra acquired on the Martian surface.
