Stable And Metastable Phases

An overwhelming amount of research has been performed on Ni3Al (γ’) and NiAl (β) intermetallic alloys over the last decade. Yet, very little is known about the two phase field between these ordered compounds, including the occurrence and stability of phases other than γ’ or β Identifying and understanding these other phases are important since one approach to improving the ductility and toughness of NiAl is to design an alloy with a dual phase microstructure (i.e. NiAl + Ni3Al). Preliminary alloying attempts have encountered varying degrees of success. They range from powder metallurgy alloys with significantly increased fracture strengths over single phase (β-alloys to directionally solidified γ’ + β crystals which exhibit up to 9% tensile ductility at room temperature. Unfortunately, aging of these alloys at low temperature (<973 K) results in the formation of several complex, stable and metastable phases which may negate any original improvements in mechanical behavior.

Alloys of Ru-Al-Cr with compositions between Ru-10Al-35Cr and Ru-3Al-39Cr (at.%) were directionally solidified and heat treated to produce single phase hcp-Ru(Cr,Al) and two phase B2-hcp microstructures. The room temperature fracture toughness, tensile behavior, and cyclic oxidation behavior at 1100°C were investigated and compared to previous results measured from RuAl and Ru-Al-Mo alloys. For microstructures consisting of a Ru(Cr,Al) matrix with fine RuAl precipitate, a good room temperature fracture toughness, tensile ductility, and oxidation resistance at 1100°C were measured.

Room-temperature ductility of two Ti–Al–Nb intermetallic alloys with close chemical compositions was investigated by tensile testing. The two alloys' ductilities in the B2 single-phase state were significantly different, which indicated that the ductility of B2 phase state was sensitive to the chemical composition. The alloy with more ductile B2 phase exhibited higher ductility in O + B2 two-phase state.

Temperature Aging

The microstructural evolution and tensile performance of a meta-stable β-type biomedical Ti−10Mo−6Zr−4Sn−3Nb (Ti-B12) alloy subjected to one-stage aging (OSA) and two-stage aging (TSA) are investigated in this work. The OSA treatment is performed at 510°C for 8 h. The TSA treatments are composed of low-temperature aging and high-temperature aging. In the first step, low-temperature aging is conducted at 325°C for 2 h. In the second step, the aging temperature is the same as that in the OSA. The result of the microstructure evolution shows that the precipitated secondary phase after aging is mainly influenced by the process of phase transition. There is a marked difference in the microstructure of the Ti-B12 alloy subjected to the OSA and TSA treatments. The needle-shaped α phases are precipitated in the parent β phase after the OSA treatment. Conversely, the short shuttle-like α phases precipitated after the TSA treatment are formed in the β matrix with the aid of the role of the isothermal ω transitional phase-assisted phase transition. The electron backscattered diffraction results indicate that the crystallographic orientation relationship of the α phases precipitated during the TSA treatment is basically analogous to those in the OSA treatment. The relatively higher tensile strength of 1,275 MPa is achieved by strengthening the effect of the short shuttle-like α precipitation with a size of 0.123 μm in length during the TSA treatment, associating with a suitable elongation of 12% at room temperature simultaneously. The fracture surfaces of the samples after the OSA and TSA treatments indicate that preventing the coarsening of the α layers in the grain boundaries is favorable for the enhancement of strength of Ti-B12 at room temperature. MTT test was carried out to evaluate the acute cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of the implanted material using L929 cells. The relative proliferation rates of cytotoxicity levels 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are ≥100, 80–99, 50–79, 30–49, and 0–29%, respectively. The cytotoxicity of the Ti-B12 alloy is slightly better than that of the Ti−6Al−4V alloy, which can meet the requirements of medical materials for biomedical materials.

Mechanical properties of thermomechanically fabricated D03 Fe-33Al and B2 Fe-38Al intermetallic alloys containing Zr were investigated by means of tensile test and microhardness measurement. The Zr-added ternary alloys showed fine-grained microstructure containing large (Fe,Al)12Zr τ1 phase particles, while the binary alloy showed a single-phase microstructure consisted of coarse recrystallized grains. By introducing the large τ1 phase particles to Fe-Al matrix, tensile strength at room temperature as well as at high temperature (873K) was enhanced but tensile ductility at both temperatures decreased. On the other hand, it was found that vacancy hardening which was significant in the alloys with high contents of Al (i.e., Fe-38Al) was reduced by the large τ1 phase particles.

Temperature Aging

Beef cattle from the University herd were used for these studies; aging treatments after slaughter were as follows: (a) sides were held at room temperature (21–23 C), (b) sides were held at 2 C, (c) sides were kept for 6 hat room temperature and then the round was removed and placed at 2 C for 18 h (d) sides were held for 3 days at 2 C, then the excised round was kept for 4 days at 2 C for a total of 1 week of low temperature aging. After aging by procedures described, steaks were cut from the round, packaged and stored in a display case at about 5 C. Similar treatment was given to ground beef prepared from the same round muscles. Holding an entire side of beef at high temperature for 24 h promoted bacterial growth on the surface with subsequent proliferation on retail cuts. Shortening the aging treatment at high temperature resulted in reduced bacterial populations on packaged items. Highest bacterial loads and most rapid spoilage resulted from excising the muscle after low temperature holding and then continuing to hold the muscle in the cooler. This treatment was even more conducive to spoilage than was holding at room temperature for 24 h, and is not to be recommended.

Temperature Aging

The anelastic behavior of AA2024 alloy is studied in the temperature range between room temperature and 325 °C. The internal friction technique is shown to be very sensitive to the microstructural changes that take place at these temperatures. Interrupted aging performed at low temperature induces increase in the peak height at ~230 °C indicating the slow release of vacancies aiding the aggregation of Mg and Cu which further transforms into semicoherent precipitates. Stretched specimens indicate increase in background which is attributed to anelastic or viscoelastic of dislocations. TDIF of T6I4 samples is strongly affected to the point of deformation, whilst TDIF of T6I6 samples is affected by the deformation but irrespective to the point of deformation.
