A spherically-shaped, microcrystalline Ni-Ti alloy powder having fairly nonhomogeneous particle size distribution and chemical composition was consolidated with shock input energy of 316 kJ/kg. In the process of consolidation, shock energy is preferentially input at particle surfaces, resulting in melting of near-surface material and interparticle welding. The Ni-Ti powder particles were 2-60 μm in diameter (Fig. 1). About 30-40% of the powder particles were Ni-65wt% and balance were Ni-45wt%Ti (estimated by EMPA).Upon shock compaction, the two phase Ni-Ti powder particles were bonded together by the interparticle melt which rapidly solidified, usually to amorphous material. Fig. 2 is an optical micrograph (in plane of shock) of the consolidated Ni-Ti alloy powder, showing the particles with different etching contrast.

The behaviour of metallic powders is very important for manufacturing parts and for realize the prototypes. Manufacturing of the orthopaedic implants by selective laser sintering process can be used in medicine. The powders necessary for SLS process are biomaterials who must assure a good osteointegration of endobone implants like the Ti powder (Ti-6Al-4V) and the hydroxyapatite powder. The conditioned powders is a very important process and is necessary in SLS to obtain medical prothesis and influence the final properties of prothesis. Materials must present a gradient for porosity and one for composition (presents of a bioactive phase in titan matrix). The exterior porosity, in the contact zones with the bone tissue, favors the incipient cellular processes (the adhesion and attachment of osteoblastes, proliferation and cellular differentiation and nucleation of mineral bone). The pores must be open and with a specific surface more great. Its preferred the exterior intercommunicating porosity. The presence of phosphates of calcium in the contact zone of the implant with bone favors the mineral kernel on bone. The report Ca/P of phosphates mineral bone has an ascending evolution towards 10/6 according to hydroxyapatite.

Porous IrO2/Ti/IrO2 catalyst electrodes were obtained by coating IrO2 on both sides of three types of porous Ti powder sheets (sample 1, sample 2, and sample 3) using different surface treatment methods, and a hydrogen evolution catalyst electrode was obtained by coating Pt/C on carbon gas diffusion layers. A Nafion115 membrane was used as an electrolyte for the membrane electrode assemblies (MEA). Water electrolysis was investigated at cell temperatures up to 150 °C, and the electrical characteristics of the three types of porous IrO2/Ti/IrO2 catalyst electrodes were investigated. The sheet resistance of sample 1 was higher than those of samples 2 and 3, although during water electrolysis, a high current density was observed due to the nanostructure of the IrO2 catalyst. In addition, the structural stabilities of Nafion and Aquivion membranes up to 150 °C were investigated by using small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The polymer structures of Nafion and Aquivion membranes were stable up to 80 °C, whereas the crystalline domains grew significantly above 120 °C. In other words, the initial polymer structure did not recover after the sample was heated above the glass transition temperature.

The aim of this work was to study the effect of milling time on binary magnesium-titanium (Mg-Ti) alloy synthesized by mechanical alloying. A powder mixture of Mg and Ti with the composition of Mg-15wt%Ti was milled in a planetary mill under argon atmosphere using a stainless steel container and balls. Milling process was carried out at 400 rpm for various milling time of 2, 5, 10, 15 and 30 hours. 3% n-heptane solution was added prior to milling process to avoid excessive cold welding of the powder. Then, as-milled powder was compacted under 400 MPa and sintered in a tube furnace at 500 °C in argon flow. The refinement analysis of the x-ray diffraction patterns shows the presence of Mg-Ti solid solution when Mg-Ti powder was mechanically milled for 15 hours and further. Enhancements of Mg-Ti phase formation with a reduction in Mg crystallite size were observed with the increase in milling time. A prolonged milling time has increased the density and hardness of the sintered Mg-Ti alloy.

Mo-Si-B alloys have been received an attention due to the high temperature strength and phase stability. However, the nature of poor oxidation resistance often limits the application of the alloy system. The unstable MoO3 phase is naturally produced when the alloys were exposed at low and /or high temperature in an air atmosphere. In order to resolve the poor oxidation resistance of the alloy system, several attempts have been made via surface coatings and/or component additions. In this study, the oxidation behaviors of the Ti powder thermal spray coated Mo-Si-B alloys have been investigated in order to identify the underlying mechanism for the effect of precursor Ti coatings on Mo-Si-B alloys. The oxidation tests performed at 1100 °C show that the Ti powder was tightly bonded and reacted with the surface of the substrate, and TiO2 layer was formed at the outer surface of the coated Ti layer as a result of oxidation exposure. The oxidation behaviors of pure elemental component coated Mo-Si-B alloys have been discussed in terms of microstructural observations during oxidation tests.

Cu-Ti system with a terminal solution in the Cu-rich portion of equilibrium Cu-Ti phase diagram with a decreasing trend with temperature shows a potential to develop age hardenable alloys with suitable strength and thermal and electrical conductivities. In the present study, the mechanical alloy process has been employed to increase solubility of Ti in Cu matrix to make age hardenable Cu alloys. Cu-Ti powder mixtures with different rations of 1 and 6 wt% of Ti were milled in planetary ball mill for different milling times of 4, 12, 48, 96 and 192 hours. The milled powder mixtures were investigated and characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. The results show increasing in lattice parameter of Cu, which indicates that Ti atoms are dissolved in the Cu matrix. Cu crystal sizes showed decreasing trend which were more obvious in the mixture with higher Ti contents. The final crystal sizes were in the range of 17-23 nm after 192 hours of milling.
