Hydrolysis Mechanism Analysis of (Ca, Sr)AlSiN₃:Eu²⁺ Red Phosphor Aged Under Pressure Cooker Test and 85°C&85%RH Test: Kinetics Modeling and First-principles Calculation

The (Ca, Sr) AlSiN₃:Eu²⁺(CSASN:Eu) red phosphor is widely used to improve color rendering of high-power phosphor-converted lighting diode (pc-WLED), but it is always unstable under high temperature and high humidity environments. Therefore, the studies on the temperature and humidity resistance of red phosphors and their aging mechanism have...

Image analysis for morphology, rheology and degradation study of railway ballast: A review

The performance and deformation of ballast bed are significantly influenced by the particle morphology (size and shape), the rheology (translation and rotation), and the degradation (breakage and abrasion). Regarding the ballast particle morphology, the ballast particle size is generally measured by sieving and described with the Particle Size...
