    Notes: Abstract The formation and vertical distribution of sapwood and heartwood were studied with a 45-year-old Cryptomeria japonica D. Don. The tree was grown at a plantation with 1.5 m × 3.0 m spacing near Miao-Li, Taiwan and was felled on 27 February 1992. The thickness of sapwood and heartwood was expressed by a ring count and a linear measurement. The east-west (E-W) wood strips were collected from 0.3 m above ground upwards to the top of the tree at 2.5 m intervals. The sapwood thicknesses from the base to the 10.3 m tree level height are around 20–22 growth rings and 42±2 mm. At the top of the tree, the sapwood thickness is narrower. The heartwood, which decreases in thickness with increasing tree level heights is not found at the top of the tree. The heartwood appears as a conical shape in the tree trunk. There is no statistical difference in sapwood/heartwood thickness between E-W aspects. Tree level heights and the tree level age were found to be important parameters in determining the thickness of sapwood/heartwood.

    Notes: Abstract Oxidation kinetics of Ti-4.37 wt.% Ta (1.19 at.%) alloy in either air or oxygen have been investigated in the temperature range 1258–1473 K and at three pressure levels: 0.013, 0.133, and 1.0 bar. X-ray data reveal only TiO2 (rutile) as the main oxide and, in addition, TiO2, S-TiN, and ɛ-TiN at the metal surface for oxidation in air at 1273 K. The ɛ-TiN phase was not detected at higher temperatures. Electron microprobe analyses are used to determine the concentration profiles of Ti, Ta, O, and N across the oxide scale and in the metal. Microhardness traverses follow the oxygen distribution in the alloy. The oxygen diffusion coefficient,D = 60.8 exp(−235.1/RT), as determined from weight-gain measurements, is in reasonable agreement with that calculated from microhardness data. The oxidation mechanisms for oxidation of the alloy in air or oxygen are proposed.The existence of interstitial Ti cations in the oxide is suggested.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation kinetics of Ti-4.32 wt.% Nb (2.27 at.%) alloy in either air or oxygen under 1 bar pressure have been investigated in the temperature range of 1255–1471 K. For oxidation in oxygen the kinetics follow consecutively decreasing parabolic rate laws. The kinetics become nonparabolic after prolonged oxidation in air. X-ray data reveal the presence of TiO2 (rutile) as the main oxide. The presence of Ti2O, δ-TiN, and ɛ-TiN is found on the metal surface after oxidation in air. Microhardness and electron microprobe measurements are used to determine Ti, Nb, O, and N profiles across the oxidized alloy. The oxygen diffusion coefficient in the alloy can be expressed byD=65.6 exp(−234.3/RT) with the activation energy in kilojoules per mole. The oxidation behavior of the alloy is explained.
