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 paper presents the role of equiaxed α׳ in the bimodal microstructure to attain an optimal combination of ductility and strength. The study revealed that the production of bimodal microstructure and volume fraction of equiaxed α׳ were reliant on the forging temperature and subsequent heat treatment. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy was forged in the two phase region and different heat treatment cycles were employed to get the desired bimodal microstructure and thus the combination of strength and ductility. The mechanical properties of fully lamellar microstructure were compared with bimodal microstructure containing equiaxed α׳. The experimental results showed that the amount of equiaxed α׳ in the bimodal microstructure was critical for achieving a well-balanced profile of mechanical properties.

ABSTRACTA preliminary study on the phase relations in Al-Mo-Ti-X quaternary systems in the vicinity of Ti-trialuminide phases is carried out with various additives X= Mn, Cr, Fe, Ni and Ag. In the Al-Mo-Ti ternary system, a bcc-phase field extends from the Ti-Mo edge to high Al region at high temperatures and it equilibrates with a DO22-Al3Ti phase containing a large amount of Mo. It is found that, by additions of X= Mn, Cr, Fe or Ni, an L12-(Al, X)3 Ti phase appears near the two-phase region composed of the DO22-Al3 Ti and bcc phases in the Al-Mo-Ti ternary system. By heat treatment at 1223 K, the bcc phase of quaternary alloys decomposes into the A15-Mo3Al, DO22, L12 and/or σ phases, and no voids are observed. The mechanical properties of these alloys are also investigated by Vickers hardness.

(α + γ) two phase stainless steel (Fe-21%Cr-4.8%Ni-1.5%Mo) powder was processed by high pressure torsion (HPT) and consolidation at room temperature. The received powder had fully α single phase due to the rapid cooling during gas atomizing process. Specimens after HPT process were heat treated at 1173K for 3.6ks. It was revealed that the decomposition of α phase to γ took place during the heat treatment. Detailed microstructure observation showed that an equiaxed (α + γ) micro-duplex structure was developed and its average grain size was approximately 3.2 micrometers. The same heat treatment given to the material without HPT resulted in a coarse two phase microstructure.Therefore, it is considered that an ultra fine grained microstructure was caused by increasing of nucleation sites for γ phase due to severe plastic deformation (SPD) of HPT process. Electron backscatter diffraction patterns (EBSD) analysis indicated that α phase has a {110}/ND strong texture, that is, the α phase seems to have single orientated coarse grain structure. The γ precipitates indicated a {111}/ND strong texture, and the crystallographic orientation relationship of Kurdjumov-Sachs was observed.

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.
