The main magnetic parameters sensitive to the structure of steels are the parameters of their saturation loop of magnetic hysteresis: the coercive force Hcs and remanent magnetization Mrs. The saturation magnetization or saturation intensity Mr is most sensitive to the phase composition of steels. The variety of steel grades and modes of technological treatment (e.g., heat treatment, mechanical load) determined the use of magnetic structurescopy and magnetic characteristics — the coercive force Hc, remanent magnetization Mr , and specific hysteresis losses Wh on the subloops of the magnetic hysteresis of steels — as control parameters in diagnostics of the stressed and structural states of steel structures and pipelines. It has been shown that changes in Hc, Mr , and Wh are more sensitive to structural stresses and structures of steels than the parameters of the saturation hysteresis loop of magnetic hysteresis (Hcs, Mrs, and Mrs). The formulas for calculating Hc, Mr and Wh are presented to be used for estimation of changes in the parameters upon heat treatment of steels. Features of the structural sensitivity of the subloop characteristics and expediency of their use for magnetic structural and phase analyzes are determined. Thus, the range of changes in Ìr attributed to the structural changes in steels upon gradual Hm decrease is many times wider compared to the range of possible changes in Mrs under the same conditions. Conditions (relations between the magnetic parameters) and recommendations regarding the choice of the field strength Hm are given which provide the justified use of Hc, Mr and Wh parameters in magnetic structurescopy

Aluminium bronzes are exhibiting good corrosion resistance in saline environments combined with high mechanical properties. Their corrosion resistance is obviously confered by the alloy chemical composition, but it can also be improved by heat treatment structural changes. In the present paper, five Cu-Al-Fe-Mn bronze samples were subjected to annealing heat treatments with furnace cooling, water quenching and water quenching followed by tempering at three different temperatures: 200, 400 and 550�C. The heating temperature on annealing and quenching was 900�C. The structure of the heat treated samples was studied by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Subsequently, the five samples were submitted to corrosion tests. The best resistance to galvanic corrosion was showed by the quenched sample, but it can be said that all samples are characterized by close values of open-circuit potentials and corrosion potentials. Concerning the susceptibility to other types of corrosion (selective leaching, pitting, crevice corrosion), the best corrosion resistant structure consists of a solid solution, g2 and k compounds, corresponding to the quenched and 550�C tempered sample.

Mechanically alloyed aluminium powder was prepared by attrition-milling for 10 hours in the presence of a wax. Milled powders were annealed in vacuum at different temperatures (500, 575, 600, 625 and 650°C). Compacts were consolidated starting from unannealed and from 600°Cannealed powders. Studies by SEM microfractography and quantitative metallography, to investigate the influence of Fe-Al intermetallics on compacts fracture, have been carried out. It is concluded that fracture takes place at regions where the area occupied by the intermetallics is high and intermetallics particles are big. Intermetallic particle size can be controlled by an appropriated heat treatment.

In the present study, the effect of wet mechanical alloying (MA) on the glass-forming ability (GFA) of Co43Fe20X5.5B31.5 (X = Ta, W) alloys was studied. The structural evolution during MA was investigated using high-energy X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and magnetic measurements. Pair distribution function and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy were used to characterize local atomic structure at various stages of MA. Besides structural changes, the magnetic properties of both compositions were investigated employing a vibrating sample magnetometer and thermomagnetic measurements. It was shown that using hexane as a process control agent during wet MA resulted in the formation of fully amorphous Co-Fe-Ta-B powder material at a shorter milling time (100 h) as compared to dry MA. It has also been shown that substituting Ta with W effectively suppresses GFA. After 100 h of MA of Co-Fe-W-B mixture, a nanocomposite material consisting of amorphous and nanocrystalline bcc-W phase was synthesized.

Structural factors in clays influence their physical properties. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand the effects of heat treatment on the structure of the material during the ceramic process. In this work, we have analyzed clays from quarries in the Cerro de Pasco region, Peru, to evaluate their characteristics and the structural changes produced by heating, particularly in the interlaminar region. The samples were thermally treated between 150 oC and 800 oC with intervals of 50 oC. To evaluate the structural changes produced by temperature, X-ray diffraction were carried out before and after each heat treatment. The qualitative analysis of the measurements allowed to identify the mineralogical composition of the samples, finding phases of calcium montmorillonite, kaolinite, illite and quartz. The quantitative analysis by the Rietveld method found structural changes, particularly in the Ca-montmorillonite expansive clay. It was also possible to determine the decrease in the weight percentage of the kaolinite until the collapse of its structure between 450 °C and 500 °C. The illite presented greater thermal stability, with slight variations in its weight percentage during heat treatment, without compromising its structure. Although the quartz phase did not show relevant structure changes, it slightly increased its weight percentage with increasing temperature.

The effect of heat treatment on the structure and properties of composite coatings based on chromium carbide with titanium carbide fabricated by non-vacuum electron beam cladding without has been studied. It was shown that tempering leads to a decrease in microhardness and wear resistance, which is associated with the decomposition of the austenitic structure with the formation of a soft ferrite-carbide structure. The post heat treatment tempering was showed to decrease of microhardness and wear resistance, which leads to the decomposition of the austenitic structure with the formation of a soft ferrite-carbide structure. The bulk quenching of coatings after tempering leads to an increase in microhardness comparable to the values of microhardness in the initial state after electron beam cladding, due to the formation of high hard martensite. The wear resistance of composite coatings after tempering is lower than after cladding due to brittle martensite, which is not able to hold solid carbide particles. The composite coatings obtained at the optimal processing conditions have a combination of improved properties and do not require additional heat treatment, resulting in structural changes, causing a decrease in mechanical properties.

The powder-in-tube MgB2 wires were prepared by high energy milling of Mg and B powder. The powder was not mechanically alloyed for 2h short milling time. However, the MgB2 grains in wires were very small (20~100nm) and resemble the dimple after post-heat treatment. The clear evidence for transcrystlline fracture was observed. It indicated that the grain connection was greatly improved and the fluxing pinning was significantly enhanced. Another point to view was no intermediate annealing during the whole rolling process. The influence of the post-heat treatment on the transport current density was studied. Despite the lower Tc of about 35K, the transport current density reached to 3×104A/cm2 at 15K and 3.5T for wires sintered at 700°C.
