Abstract This paper presents the influence of the rare earth metals (REM) modification on mechanical properties and fracture toughness of G17CrMo5-5 cast steel at low temperatures. The REM was in the form of mishmetal. The research has been performed on serial (several) industrial melts. The fracture toughness values of unmodified and modified cast steel at the temperature range from −80°C to 20°C were tested. The reference temperatures of the brittle-to-ductile transition, TQ, for both unmodified and modified cast steel were determined. The positive influence of the modification by REM on the fracture toughness and the reference temperature TQ are shown.

Abstract Effect of addition of rare earth metals on microstructure and properties of copper alloys after casting, after cold working and after heat treatment was studies in this paper. Methodology consisted of microstructure investigations by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. In addition, distribution of alloying elements and electron backscattered diffraction results (EBSD) were presented. The mechanical properties of a wire after tension test and after hardness measurements were described. Electrical conductivity test was performed using Foerster Sigmatest and Thomson bridge. Analysis of the microstructure and mechanical properties of investigated alloys after casting and after metal working showed possibility to produce materials with preferred set of functional properties.

The effects of rare earth metals on the inclusions and the mechanical properties of 2205 duplex stainless steel were studied by metallographic examination, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy spectrum analysis. The results show that the morphologies and sizes of non-metallic inclusions in 2205 duplex stainless steel are changed, and rare earth metals played a very good role of modifying inclusions. The fracture mode of 2205 duplex stainless steel is typical cleavage fracture, but quasi-cleavage and dimple fracture after adding RE into the steel, and the spherical inclusions of rare earth oxysulfide in the dimple are the main factors for this transformation. The transverse impact toughness of 2205 duplex stainless steel is improved obviously by RE. In comparison with 2205 duplex stainless steel without RE, the transverse impact toughness of 2205 duplex stainless steel with RE is increased 20.49% at -40°C, and the room temperature strength are improved, the elongation and reduction of area have been improved 11.67%, 24.55% respectively.
