Although the abrasive reinforcement in MMCs primarily controls their machining behavior, the properties of the matrix also exert an influence. A 1200 W diode laser was used, due to the large footprint (5×0.3 mm) and the short wavelength (0.94 μm) to pre-treat a 2618 (18% SiC) alloy. The laser heating and self-quenching of the material modified the matrix properties. Machining performance was then assessed by measuring tool wear and edge condition, cutting forces, surface finish, and sub-surface damage. Results indicated that pre-treatment gave less wear, lower forces, and less sub-surface damage although abrasion remained the primary wear mechanism.

Abstract The study of nanostructure, thermal and relaxation properties (by HAADF-STEM, EDXS, DMA and DSC), combined with the calculations of interparticle distances and interfacial areas, has been performed for a series of the hybrid Cyanate Ester Resin (CER)/Si02 polymer composites with 0.01 to 10 wt.% Si02 units introduced via a sol-gel process. The absence of clusterization, arising only subnanometric Si02 nodes and their quasi-regular distribution within the amorphous matrix, with the shortest distances between nodes, provided their exceptional positive impact on the matrix properties at ultra-low Si02 contents of 0.03-0.1 wt.%. The superiority of these subnanocomposites over the nanocomposites was determined by the role of constrained interfacial dynamics over the whole matrix.

Summary A formation-damage experimental study is conducted on synthetic homogeneous and vuggy cores. Glass beads of 1.0 mm are sintered to form a uniform core with a porosity of 42%, and finer-sized glass beads (25 and 100 µm) are used as the infiltrates. Glass beads are used as the matrix and infiltrate to reduce surface forces, and the flow is gravity dominated. Dissolvable inclusions are added during the sintering process to create vugs in the core. The pore-size to vug-size ratio is 1:100. The injected-particle sizes are chosen such that straining is the dominant trapping mechanism during the flow experiment. Infiltrate particles are injected at different flow configurations, and the resultant porosity, permeability, and effluent volume are measured. The results can be summarized as follows: Vugs get up to 32% smaller caused by the flow for the infiltrate, while the maximum change in the porosity is observed at the bottom end of the core, vug shape changes to a smoother and rounded surface, and particles go deeper (8 mm more) into the formation when vugs are present, causing damage deeper inside the formation.

The development of metal nanocomposites reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) remains a focus of the scientific community due to the growing need to produce lightweight advanced materials with unique mechanical properties. However, for the successful production of these nanocomposites, there is a need to consolidate knowledge about how reinforcement influences the matrix microstructure and which are the strengthening mechanisms promoting the best properties. In this context, this investigation focuses on the study of the reinforcement effect on the microstructure of an Ni-CNT nanocomposites produced by powder metallurgy. The microstructural evolution was analysed by electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD). The EBSD results revealed that the dispersion/mixing and pressing processes induce plastic deformation in the as-received powders. The dislocation structures produced in those initial steps are partially eliminated in the sintering process due to the activation of recovery and recrystallization mechanisms. However, the presence of CNTs in the matrix has a significant effect on the dislocation annihilation, thus reducing the recovery of the dislocation structures.

Five titanium-based alloys containing 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 wt% molybdenum additive were fabricated by spark plasma sintering process at 1200 ˚C. The samples were scrutinized in terms of relative density, phase evolution, and microstructural development. The relative density reached 99.9% with the molybdenum addition up to 16 wt% but slightly dropped in the sample with 20 wt% additive. In the specimens with 4 wt% Mo, molybdenum solved completely in the matrix and three different phase morphologies were observed, namely continuous α-Ti, laminar α-Ti, and very thin laminar β-Ti. With increasing Mo content to 20 wt%, widespread single β-Ti appeared alongside remained Mo and α-Ti. Ductile fracture mode was dominant in the samples with low Mo contents whilst it changed to brittle in the specimens with higher content of molybdenum.

Cubic boron nitrid (cBN) bonded TiC and alloyed with single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs or NC) ceramics matrix nanocomposites (CMNCs) tools were manufacturated by a field actived sparck plasma sintering processus (FASPS). The effects of cBN-TiC ratio, carbon nanotubes and optimisation of the sintering process on the microstructure, densification in addition mechanical and vibronic properties of NC-cBN-TiC nanocomposites were studied. The results showed that for the nanocomposite cBN-TiC vol. ratio of 8:2 with 0.1 wt% NC, it was found that microhardness incresses significantly with addition of carbon nanotubes exhibited the highest microhardness and fracture toughness. After sintering of the samples at 1800 °C, 10 mn, 75 MPa of cBN–TiC1-x, x=0.8 with and without addition of 0.1 wt% NC were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction. The samples exhibited a dense polycrystalline structure. From the resonant Raman scattering we can locate the vibration frequency of the transformation cBN to hexagonal boron nitrid (hBN) and formation of secondary hard phase TiB2to consolid the (CMNCs) tools. The final product is hBN-TiC-TiB2-NC.The best product contained cBNx-TiC1-x (x=0.8)-0.1 wt % NC which was sintered at 1800 °C, 75 MPa for 10 mn. The Vickers hardness of cBN-TiC1-x (x=0.8) incresses with NC incorporation in the matrix The indentation fracture toughness was calculated to be 12.30 MPa m1/2 for cBNx-TiC1-x (x=0.8 -0.1 wt % NC ceramics matrix nanocomposite (CMNCs) tools with excellent wear resistant will be confirmed. The wear of cBN-TiC of the composites tools have shown that this is predominantly a chemical process involving the interaction of the tool with its environment and is restricted by the formation of protective layers on the exposed faces of the tool by the addition of carbon nanotubes (NC). The wear features of tools used in fine cutting tests under identical conditions will be compared and the results will be interpreted in terms of the existing models for the wear of cBN -based nanomaterials by the effects of the additives in the modified tools

Abstract In this paper, a nanosecond fiber pulse laser is used to carry out the experimental study on laser weight removal of ZL205A aluminum alloy gyro rotor. By optimizing the process parameters of laser weight removal, better surface morphology was obtained. The effects of surface roughness, metallographic structure and hardness of samples before and after laser deweighting were analyzed. The experimental results show that the laser weight removal does not affect the matrix properties of ZL205A aluminum alloy. The laser de-weight technology is suitable for the balance of ZL205A aluminum alloy gyro rotor.

Abstract The aim of this study was to fabricate YAG/Al2O3 ceramic composites with different alumina nanoparticles using slip casting and the atmospheric sintering process. In addition, some mechanical properties such as hardness and elastic modules of this novel ceramics were evaluated using the nanoindention technique. The results showed that the rheological behavior of the slurry was optimized to the solid loading of 55 wt% and the relative density of the green body was enhanced up to 65%. Relative density was increased after sintering at 1700 °C for 12 h to 99.5% and the pore size (150 nm) was reduced to half of that of powder particles. It should be noted that the optimum amount of alumina nanoparticles as a reinforcing agent in the matrix was less than 5%wt and the composite hardness was increased to 7.3%, as compared to the pure YAG ceramic.

Carbon nanotube/bismuth-selenium-tellurium composites were fabricated by consolidating CNT/Bi2(Se,Te)3composite powders prepared from a polyol-reduction process. The synthesized composite powders exhibit CNTs homogeneously dispersed among Bi2(Se,Te)3matrix nanopowders of 300 nm in size. The powders were densified into a CNT/Bi2(Se,Te)3composite in which CNTs were randomly dispersed in the matrix through spark plasma sintering process. The effect of an addition of Se on the dimensionless figure-of-merit (ZT) of the composite was clearly shown in 3 vol.% CNT/Bi2(Se,Te)3composite as compared to CNT/Bi2Te3composite throughout the temperature range of 298 to 473 K. These results imply that matrix modifications such as an addition of Se as well as the incorporation of CNTs into bismuth telluride thermoelectric materials is a promising means of achieving synergistic enhancement of the thermoelectric performance levels of these materials.
