Abstract The effect of heat treatment on the microstructure, phase composition, mechanical properties, and microhardness of the shape-memory Сu–14 wt % Al–3 wt % Ni alloy prepared in the nanocrystalline state, which results from the severe plastic high-pressure torsion (HPT), is studied. Electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis are used in combination with electrical resistivity measurements in order to obtain data on the peculiarities of thermoelastic martensitic transformations and decomposition in the HPT-processed alloy subjected to thermal actions.

Al85Gd8Ni5Co2 metallic glass was subjected to partial devitrification by high-pressure torsion, continuous heat treatment, and isothermal annealing. The fully amorphous alloy exhibits a well-defined transition in its first devitrification product during isothermal heat treatments from τm + α-Al phase mixture to primary α-Al by increasing the annealing temperature above 555 K. This thermal sensitivity predestinates the composition to identify the controversial thermal contribution of the plastic deformation in metallic glasses. Thermal stability and structure of the partially devitrified samples were systematically analyzed and compared by calorimetry, x-ray diffraction, and electron microscopy. It seems that the effect of severe deformation cannot be singled out by a simple isothermal heat treatment; i.e., high-pressure torsion acts as a spectrum of heat treatments performed at different annealing temperatures.

This study evaluated the effect of a heat treatment on the potential application of AlMg5Si2Mn die casting alloy as a substitute for wrought aluminium alloy products. The proposed heat treatment was intended to increase the workability of the AlMg5Si2Mn alloy, which is typically not malleable due to the presence of interconnected brittle phases. By disintegrating interconnected eutectic Mg2Si phases into fragmented particles and dissolving Mg-rich phases the workability was increased. Subsequently, heat treated samples were subjected to high-pressure torsion process. The microstructure of the heat treated and deformed samples were characterized using light and electron microscope. Hardness measurements were used to investigate the influence the number of HPT revolutions on mechanical properties.

The precipitation behavior during heat treatment and resulting mechanical properties of ASTM F 90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass%) alloys were investigated with regards to their biomedical applications. Heat treatment was conducted at temperatures of 873 to 1623 K, for a holding time of 259.2 ks. The precipitates produced were then electrolytically extracted from the alloys and analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). This revealed that the precipitates formed were an M23X6 type and/or η-phase (i.e., an M6X-M12X type). The M23X6-type precipitate was detected across the entire heat-treatment temperature range; however, the η-phase precipitate was only detected at 1073 to 1473 K, becoming dominant at 1173 to 1373 K. The formation of M23X6 type precipitates at 873 K is shown to improve the mechanical properties of this alloy, whereas the domination by the η-phase precipitate at higher temperatures causes deterioration in the ductility.

Deformation according to the scheme of uniaxial compression (with simultaneous measurement of mechanical properties) in isothermal conditions at 700-800°C provides a significant grain structure refinement of the Сu-14 mas.%Al-4 mas.%Ni alloy. It is found that this leads to an increase in the plasticity of the alloy experiencing thermoelastic martensitic transformations and associated shape memory effects. The structure was studied using the methods of scanning and transmission electron microscopy and X-ray phase analysis.

Using the methods of electron microscopy and X-ray analysis in combination with measurements of the electrical resistance and magnetic susceptibility, the authors have obtained data on the peculiar features of pre-martensitic states and martensitic transformations, as well as subsequent decomposition, in the alloys with shape memory effect of Cu–14wt%Al–3wt%Ni and Cu–13.5wt%Al–3.5wt%Ni. For the first time, we established the microstructure, phase composition, mechanical properties, and microhardness of the alloys obtained in the nanocrystalline state as a result of severe plastic deformation under high pressure torsion and subsequent annealing. A crystallographic model of the martensite nucleation and the rearrangements β1→β1' and β1→γ1ꞌ are proposed based on the analysis of the observed tweed contrast and diffuse scattering in the austenite and the internal defects in the substructure of the martensite.
