Reduction Of Area

The oxidation resistance and high temperature mechanical properties of FeCrNi heat-resisting steel are analyzed and studied. The results show that the oxidation resistance of the heat-resisting steel is improved remarkably after adding RE. The value of oxidation rate of Sample 1 (without adding RE) is 1.71 times higher than Sample 2, respectively at 1423K. And the value of oxidation rate of Sample 1 is 1.4 times higher than Sample 2, respectively at 1473K. The fracture mode of heat-resisting stainless steel is typical cleavage fracture, but dimple fracture after adding RE into the steel. The high temperature mechanical properties of heat-resisting steel is improved obviously by RE. In comparison with heat-resisting stainless steel without RE, the reduction of area of heat-resisting stainless steel with RE is increased 26.27% at 1123K.

Element Loss

The effects of CeCl3-containing fluxes on RE element loss, the high temperature mechanical properties, microstructure and corrosion properties of magnesium alloy containing RE have been studied. The results showed that a certain amount of CeCl3 in purification fluxes restrained the reaction between the Ce element and fluxes to decrease the loss of Ce in alloys. With the flux containing 9% CeCl3, the loss rate of alloy element Ce can be reduced from 26.9% to 3.4%, and the σb and δ of the alloys at 150°C counld be improved from 160.9MPa and 6.2% to 176.5MPa and 7.9% compared with that of conventional MgCl2-containing flux , respectively. Besides, the coarse β phase and rod-like RE phase were refined effectively by CeCl3-containing fluxes.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of the high temperature titanium alloys containing Er, i.e. Ti-6Al-2.5Sn-4Zr-0.3Mo-1Nb-0.35Si-xEr (x=0, 0.1, 0.3wt%), were investigated. Both the grain size and lamellar structure inside grains were significantly refined with the addition of Er in as-cast alloys. Lamellar and duplex microstructures were obtained after forging and heat treatment. Silicide precipitates were generated in the boundary of lamellar α phase after aging treatment. Meanwhile, a few α2 phase were precipitated in the alloys after aging treatment. After 600°C /100h thermal exposure, the α2 phases with a mean size of 7nm and spacing of 10 nm were precipitated homogeneously in α lamellar. The creep properties were significantly improved by the addition of rare earth Er due to the formation of the second phase containing Er, silicide and α2 phase.

It is expected that silicon nitride based ceramics will be used as high-temperature structural components. Though much progress has been made in both processing techniques and microstructural control, the mechanical properties required have not yet been achieved. It is thought that the high-temperature mechanical properties of Si3N4 are limited largely by the secondary glassy phases present at triple points. These are due to various oxide additives used to promote liquid-phase sintering. Therefore, many attempts have been performed to crystallize these second phase glassy pockets in order to improve high temperature properties. In addition to the glassy or crystallized second phases at triple points a thin amorphous film exists at two-grain junctions. This thin film is found even in silicon nitride formed by hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) without additives. It has been proposed by Clarke that an amorphous film can exist at two-grain junctions with an equilibrium thickness.
