Ductile phase reinforcement is an attractive approach for enhancing the room temperature ductility and toughness of brittle intermetallics such as β−NiAl. For example, a directionally solidified alloy of nominal composition 70 at.% Ni −30 at.% Al, having a two-phase β (brittle matrix) and γ (ductile second phase) microstructure, exhibits up to 9% tensile ductility at room temperature [1]. In the present investigation, a microscopic study has been made to understand the mechanisms involved in the ductility enhancement of the β + γ composite.

A bulk metallic glass-forming Ti–Cu–Ni–Sn alloy with in situ formed composite microstructure prepared by both centrifugal and injection casting presents more than 6% plastic strain under compressive stress at room temperature. The in situ formed composite contains dendritic hexagonal-close-packed-Ti solid solution precipitates and a few Ti3Sn, β –(Cu, Sn) grains dispersed in a glassy matrix. The composite microstructure can avoid the development of the highly localized shear bands typical for the room-temperature deformation of monolithic glasses. Instead, highly developed shear bands with evident protuberance are observed, resulting in significant yielding and homogeneous plastic deformation over the entire sample.

In situ synchrotron radiation diffraction was performed during the compression of as-cast Mg–3Nd–Zn alloys with different amounts (0, 0.5, 1, and 2 wt %) of Zn addition at room temperature. During the tests, the acoustic emission signals of the samples were recorded. The results show that the addition of Zn decreased the strength of the alloys but, at the same time, increased their ductility. In the earlier stages of deformation, twin formation and basal slip were the dominant deformation mechanisms. The twins tended to grow during the entire compression stage; however, the formation of new twins dominated only at the beginning of the plastic deformation. In order to accommodate the strain levels, the alloys containing Zn underwent nonbasal slip in the later stages of deformation. This can be attributed to the presence of precipitates containing Zn in the microstructure, inhibiting twin growth.
