Effect Of Surface

A novel heat treatment procedure combining the shot-peening with a two-step aging operation was proposed to improve both the strength and the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance of the high-strength 7075 aluminium alloy. The heat treatment included one shot-peening stage before or between the two stages of aging at 120°C for 24 h and at 160°C for 1 h, respectively. The mechanical properties obtained during the aforementioned operations were extremely similar to those of the T6 sample owing to the unaffected bulk microstructure over such a low over-aging period. The SCC resistance of these samples was considerably improved, compared to that of the T6 sample and of the conventional shot-peened T6 sample due to the over-aging of the surface like the T7 treatment leading from the diffusion acceleration by the dislocations generated in the surface layer during shot-peening. In spite of the further depth of deformation caused by shot-peening prior to the first step of aging, the sample shot-peened after the first step of aging showed no significant decrease in the SCC resistance because of its higher generated dislocation by shot-peening.

Heat Treatment Procedure

Industrial high damping steels based on the Fe - Al metallic system have been studied. The optimization of the crystalline structure of the industrial damping steels has been shown to be very important for the achievement of high mechanical properties including high fatigue resistance. In the same time the achievement of high damping properties strongly depends on the magnetic domain structure of the material and, consequently, on the heat treatment procedure.

Abstract To improve the mechanical properties of steel materials such as Vanadis 4extra, Vanadis 10, Vancron 40, and Böhler S600, the isothermal heat treatment procedure using salt bath was used. Samples of the steels were processed at different time of austempering at various temperatures and compared to the samples processed by heat treatment (i.e. quenching in air or quenching in oil and tempering in air) which is most widely used in practice. Hardness properties are determined by the steel microstructure, the size and number of carbide particles in this microstructure. The suitability of heat treatment for improving mechanical properties of different steel materials is assessed.

In this work we investigate magnetocaloric effect and heat capacity of Gd cold rolled ribbons. Such materials are easy to produce, they are flexible and convenient for using in magnetic cooling devices. It is shown that the magnetocaloric effect is strongly dependent on thickness of the ribbons. Severely rolled ribbons demonstrate rather a small magnetocaloric effect. However, a special heat treatment procedure makes it possible to enhance the effect up to the value observed in polycrystalline Gd.

Extruded Products

The microstructures and mechanical properties of Mg-Zn-Zr-Y alloy extruded bar with different heat treatment processes were investigated, including solution treatments of 400 oC, 450 oC and 500 oC for 3 hours followed by 170 oC×24h aging treatment, and solely aging treatments of 160 oC, 180 oC for 24hours without solution after extruding. By comparing the grain size, strength and elongation of the samples, the heat treatment processes for extruded products with high strength and with medium strength were recommended.
