Steel-bonded cemented carbide GT35 was fabricated from natural ilmenite by in-situ carbothermic reduction and vacuum pressureless sintering. The effects of C content on the mechanical properties and microstructures of GT35 composites were investigated. As an excellent reducer, carbon provides an impetus for a series of reductive process. C content determines the melting point of the steel matrix, and directly affects the mechanism of dissolving and segregating of TiC particles, forming a netlike microstructure. Besides, the liquid steel whose viscosplasticity is determined by C content was coated on the surface of the composite and refrained the release of CO. The results showed that the good mechanical properties of steel-bonded cemented carbide GT35 composite were obtained with 0.9wt.% C at the same sintering conditions and the density reached 6.12g/cm3, the average bending strength was over 1229MPa after heat treatment, the mean hardness HRC was 69.4. It also showed that in-situ reduction of natural limonite was a feasible way to fabricate good performance GT35 composite with a relatively low cost.

Cermets of the type Ti(C,N)-WC/Mo2C-(Ta,Nb)C-Co/Ni with changing [Mo]/([Mo] + [W]) ratio were subjected to an investigation of outgassing of CO and N2 upon sintering. Quantification of CO and N2 was performed by gas calibration, measurement of masses 12 (12C), 14 (14N) and 28 (28CO and 28N2), as well as C, N, O analysis of the samples before and after sintering. The formation of CO occurs at lower temperatures than that of N2, both gases being completely evolved already at solid-state sintering conditions. If pre-alloyed powders are employed in the starting formulation, the amount of evolved gases is substantially reduced, because part of the formation of mixed hard phases is anticipated. Changing binder composition from Co:Ni = 1:1 to 2:1 and 3:1 does not change the outgassing characteristics, while different batches of nominally the same Ti(C,N) powder can have significant influence. Mass spectrometry is a most valuable in situ tool for getting insight into the metallurgical reactions occurring upon sintering. These reactions result in the typical microstructure and influence the properties of cermets.

In this study, high-density magnesium diboride (MgB2) bulk superconductors were synthesized by spark plasma sintering (SPS) under pressure to improve the field dependence of the critical current density (Jc-B) in MgB2 bulk superconductors. We investigated the relationship between sintering conditions (temperature and time) and Jc-B using two methods, ex situ (sintering MgB2 synthesized powder) and in situ (reaction sintering of Mg and B powder), respectively. As a result, we found that higher density with suppressed particle growth and suppression of the formation of coarse particles of MgB4 and MgO were found to be effective in improving the Jc-B characteristics. In the ex situ method, the degradation of MgB2 due to pyrolysis was more severe at temperatures higher than 850 °C. The sample that underwent SPS treatment for a short time at 850 °C showed higher density and less impurity phase in the bulk, which improved the Jc-B properties. In addition, the in situ method showed very minimal impurity with a corresponding improvement in density and Jc-B characteristics for the sample optimized at 750 °C. Microstructural characterization and flux pinning (fP) analysis revealed the possibility of refined MgO inclusions and MgB4 phase as new pinning centers, which greatly contributed to the Jc-B properties. The contributions of the sintering conditions on fP for both synthesis methods were analyzed.

ABSTRACTRaw β-Si3N4 powder was gas-pressure sintered with Y2 O3-Nd2O3additives at > 1700ºC. Graingrowth behavior was investigated in relation to sintering conditions. Selective growth of large grains was accomplished by sintering the powder at high temperatures with small amounts of additives. As a result, in-situ composites were obtained from β-powder.The desired material properties have been attained by controlling the microstructural design using large grains. Materials with high reliability, having a Weibull modulus of about 50, were fabricated by maintaining a uniform size and distribution of elongated grains. Tough materials, having fracture toughness of, were developed by increasing the diameter of elongated grains. This method was applied to the sintering of refractory grade powder with the aim of lowering sintered material cost. Fairly good mechanical properties have been obtained even with impure powders.

Magnesium diboride (MgB2) is a highly potential superconducting material, in substitution of Nb3Sn, which has a critical temperature of ~ 39 K. This synthesis and manufacturing of MgB2 wire were conducted by in-situ powder in tube (PIT). The method doped with silicon carbide (SiC) was aimed to study the effect of phase formation on carbon substitution and morphological characteristics with the motivation to improve superconductivity properties. Magnesium, boron, and SiC powders were synthesized and functionally processed with stainless Steel 304 tube. Heat treatment was conducted at 750℃, 800℃, and 850℃ for 2 hours followed by furnace cooling. Characterization was carried out by x-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and cryogenic magnet testing. The results showed that 1% SiC optimally increased the zero critical temperature of MgB2 ~ 37.18 K along with the sintering at 750℃ for 2 hours.
