Cementite extraordinary mechanical properties have drawn the attention of researchers in recent years. But, the limited methods for the production of this material, led to the production of iron with more than 2.1%wt carbon content beside free carbon by simultaneous thermal-mechanical activation of hematite and graphite mixture at 800°C for 6 hours in the present research. Then, a structure with more than 80%wt cementite was obtained through partial melting process at 1180°C for 25 minutes.

ZrC – TiC composites containing 20 wt.% TiC, along with and without 0.2 wt.% graphite were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) at temperatures between 1600 - 1900 °C for 10 min under pressure up to 100 MPa. The addition of free carbon tends to reduce the appearance of tertiary phases in the microstructure according to scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. However, free carbon also reduced the mechanical properties of Vickers’ hardness and fracture toughness of the composites. SPS data showed when pressure was increased to 100 MPa, evident grain growth started to occur at a temperature as low as 1600 °C resulting in relative density > 100%. Samples produced at 1600 °C, but with maximum allowable pressure according to the SPS machine, yielded samples with greater hardness and fracture toughness compared to samples produced at 1900 °C.

Different process methods and parameters together with different amount of additives were used to fabricate WC-Ni-ZrO2 hardmetals with mechanical properties aiming at improved performance under erosive wear. XRD observation showed the presence of tetragonal zirconia in the cermet matrix after processing. The best erosion resistance with erosion rate of about 0.7 mm3/kg was demonstrated by the specimen produced either by vacuum sintering or SPS and added by 0.2 wt% of free carbon. This cermet has also demonstrated the highest hardness of 17.7 GPa.

The mechanical properties of three titanium alloys (Ti-7Mo-3Al, Ti-7Mo- 3Cu and Ti-7Mo-3Ta) were evaluated as function of: 1) Solutionizing in the beta field and aging, 2) Thermal Mechanical Processing in the beta field and aging, 3) Solutionizing in the alpha + beta field and aging. The samples were isothermally aged in the temperature range 300° to 700*C for 4 to 24 hours, followed by a water quench. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray method were used to identify the phase formed. All three alloys solutionized at 1050°C (beta field) transformed to martensitic alpha (alpha prime) upon being water quenched. Despite this heavily strained alpha prime, which is characterized by microtwins the tensile strength of the as-quenched alloys is relatively low and the elongation is as high as 30%.

For fuel savings as well as energy and resource requirement, high strength low alloy steels (HSLA) are of particular interest to automobile industry because of the potential weight reduction which can be achieved by using thinner section of these steels to carry the same load and thus to improve the fuel mileage. Dual phase treatment has been utilized to obtain superior strength and ductility combinations compared to the HSLA of identical composition. Recently, cooling rate following heat treatment was found to be important to the tensile properties of the dual phase steels. In this paper, we report the results of the investigation of cooling rate on the microstructures and mechanical properties of several vanadium HSLA steels.The steels with composition (in weight percent) listed below were supplied by China Steel Corporation: 1. low V steel (0.11C, 0.65Si, 1.63Mn, 0.015P, 0.008S, 0.084Aℓ, 0.004V), 2. 0.059V steel (0.13C, 0.62S1, 1.59Mn, 0.012P, 0.008S, 0.065Aℓ, 0.059V), 3. 0.10V steel (0.11C, 0.58Si, 1.58Mn, 0.017P, 0.008S, 0.068Aℓ, 0.10V).
