Ion-nitriding represents an attractive and cost-effective process for improving the surface properties (hardness, wear resistance) and fatigue behavior of ultra-low carbon bainitic (ULCB) steels (1). Although the improvements in mechanical properties of nitrided steels are well-documented, precipitation in these steels during the nitriding process has not been studied extensively. The precipitation in ULCB steels is complex due to the presence of Mo, Mn, and Ni. Therefore, to investigate nitride precipitation in these steels, we have employed both TEM and APFIM in order to characterize the ultra-fine precipitates.The material employed in this study was a fully bainitic ULCB steel (0.021C- lMn- 1.4Ni- 1.5Mo- 0.016Ti- 0.05 2Nb -0.001B). Ion-nitriding was performed at 466°C for 14 hours using a mixture of 75% H2 - 25% N2 at a pressure of 2500 millitorr.

Purpose – The paper aims to provide new observations about static strain ageing in aluminium (Al) alloys which are widely used in structural applications. Design/methodology/approach – The present work aims to provide theoretical and practical information to industries or researchers who may be interested in the effect of static strain ageing on mechanical properties of Al alloys. The data are sorted into the following sections: introduction, materials and experimental procedure, results and discussion and conclusions. Findings – Tensile strength, proof strength (0.2 per cent) and percentage elongation measurement were used to investigate the effect of strain ageing on the mechanical properties. Wear tests were performed by sliding the pin specimens, which were prepared from as-received, solution heat-treated, deformed and undeformed specimens after ageing, on high-speed tool steel (64 HRC). It is concluded that the variations in ageing time improved the strength and wear resistance of the 6063 Al alloy; however, a plastically deformed solution-treated alloy has higher strength and wear resistance than undeformed specimens for different ageing times at 180°C. Practical implications – A very useful source of information for industries using or planning to produce Al alloys. Originality/value – This paper fulfils an identified resource need and offers practical help to the industries.

Potential relations of tribological characteristics of aluminum antifriction alloys with their compositions and mechanical properties were investigated. In this regard, the properties of eight aluminum alloys containing tin from 5.4% to 11% doped with lead, copper, silicon, zinc, magnesium, and titanium were studied. Mechanical properties such as hardness, strength, relative extension, and impact strength were analyzed. Within the tribological tests seizure load and wear of material were evaluated and secondary structures were studied afterwards. The absence of a definitive correlation between tribological behavior and mechanical properties was shown. It was determined that doping tin over 6% is excessive. The seizure load of the alloys increases with the magnesium content. Secondary structures of the alloys with higher wear rates contain one order less magnesium and tin.

AbstractNi-based alloy coatings prepared by laser cladding has high bonding strength, excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The mechanical properties of coatings can be further improved by changing the composition of alloy powders. This paper reviewed the improved microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni-based composite coatings by hard particles, single element and rare earth elements. The problems that need to be solved for the particle-reinforced nickel-based alloy coatings are pointed out. The prospects of the research are also discussed.

In this work, ultrahigh carbon steels (UHCS) obtained by powder metallurgy with CIP and argon sintered at 1150°C. Then, they were rolled at 850 °C with a reduction of 40 %. Finally, steels were quenched at 850 and 1000 °C in oil. In each step, hardness, bending strength and wear performance were evaluated. Obtained results are justified with a metallographic study by SEM. Both mechanical properties and wear resistance are highly favoured with the thermomechanical treatment that removes the porosity of the material. Moreover, final quenching highly hardens the material. The obtained material could be used as matrix for tool steels.
