AbstractBy the control of composition, clustered atomic configuration and stability of the supercooled liquid in the rapid solidification and powder metallurgy processes, high-strength Al-based bulk alloys containing nanoscale nonperiodic phases were produced in AI-Ln-LTM, AI-ETM-LTM and Al-(V, Cr, Mn)-LTM (Ln=lanthanide metal, LTM=VII and VIII group metals, ETM=IV to VI group metals) alloys containing high Al contents of 92 to 95 at%. The nonperiodic phases are composed of amorphous or icosahedral (I) phase. In particular, the Al-based bulk alloys consisting of nanoscale I particles surrounded by Al phase exhibit much better mechanical properties as compared with commercial Al base alloys. The success of producing the Al-based alloys with good engineering properties by use of I phase is important for future development of I-based alloys as practical materials.

Abstract In the aluminium alloy family, Al-Zn materials with non-standard chemical composition containing Mg and Cu are a new group of alloys, mainly owing to their high strength properties. Proper choice of alloying elements, and of the method of molten metal treatment and casting enable further shaping of the properties. One of the modern methods to produce materials with submicron structure is a method of Rapid Solidification. The ribbon cast in a melt spinning device is an intermediate product for further plastic working. Using the technique of Rapid Solidification it is not possible to directly produce a solid structural material of the required shape and length. Therefore, the ribbon of an ultrafine grain or nanometric structure must be subjected to the operations of fragmentation, compaction, consolidation and hot extrusion. In this article the authors focussed their attention on the technological aspect of the above mentioned process and described successive stages of the fabrication of an AlZn9Mg2.5Cu1.8 alloy of ultrafine grain structure designated for further plastic working, which enables making extruded rods or elements shaped by the die forging technology. Studies described in the article were performed under variable parameters determined experimentally in the course of the alloy manufacturing process, including casting by RS and subsequent fragmentation.

In this study, AZ91 and SiC particulates reinforced AZ91 (SiCp/AZ91) magnesium alloys were successfully fabricated using rapid solidification/powder metallurgy technique followed by hot extrusion. Microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the monolithic AZ91 and SiCp/AZ91 magnesium alloys were evaluated. SiC particulates were well distributed with only few agglomerated particles. The porosity level and microhardness increased as SiCp content increased because the increased surface area of SiCp, harder ceramic phases and SiCp acted obstacles to the motion of dislocations. In addition, an increase in particulate reinforcement content was observed to decrease mechanical properties of the composite compared with the unreinforced counterpart due to increasing agglomerating regions and porosity, brittle interface debonding between matrix and SiCp.

ABSTRACTThere is a growing national need for development of new improved materials having superior corrosion resistance combined with high mechanical strength. This paper discusses the properties and corrosion behavior of a new nickel-chromium-molybdenum microcrystalline alloy made via rapid solidification powder process, making it suitable for potential applications in corrosive environments. The alloy, called Markomet 1119, has the following composition in weight percent:Bal Ni, 20.3Cr, 22.8Mo, 2.9Fe, 0.5B, 0.8C.This is prepared as rapidly solidified powder by the method of a melt-spinning-pulverization process. The powder is consoldated into rods by hot extrusion. The mechanical properties and corrosion tests carried out on Markomet 1119 are reported. The microstructural feature of the alloy as investigated by SEM is also reported.
