The present work concentrates on the crystallinity, tensile strength and failure mode of CF/PPS laminate subjected to isothermal heat treatment of different temperatures and time periods. Results show that in the range of 100–210°C and 1–3 hours, with the increase of heat treatment temperature and time, both crystallinity and tensile strength of CF/PPS laminate increase firstly then decrease. Under the condition of 150°C-2 hours treatment, the CF/PPS has the optimal crystallinity level of 65.3% and the optimal tensile strength with a value of 718.2 MPa. Compared with the as-received specimen without heat treatment, the crystallinity and tensile strength have been increased by 46.4% and 15.3%, respectively. A laser confocal microscope has been used to observe and analyze the fracture morphologies of the specimens, results show that the failure modes of the specimens under conditions of 100°C and 150°C isothermal heat treatment are fiber extraction and fiber breakage, respectively, and both are AGM, while that of 210°C is debonding and delamination, which is DGM.

EUROFER97 steel plates for nuclear fusion applications are usually manufactured by hot rolling and subsequent heat treatments: (1) austenitization at 980 °C for 30 min, (2) rapid cooling and (3) tempering at 760 °C for 90 min. An extended experimental campaign was carried out with the scope of improving the strength of the steel without a loss of ductility. Forty groups of samples were prepared by combining cold rolling with five cold reduction ratios (20, 40, 50, 60 and 80%) and heat treatments at eight different temperatures in the range 400–750 °C (steps of 50 °C). This work reports preliminary results regarding the microstructure and mechanical properties of all the cold-rolled samples and the effects of heat treatments on the samples deformed with the greater CR ratio (80%). The strength of deformed samples decreased as heat treatment temperature increased and the change was more pronounced in the samples cold-rolled with greater CR ratios. After heat treatments at temperature up to 600 °C yield stress (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of samples deformed with CR ratio of 80% were significantly larger than those of standard EUROFER97 but ductility was lower. On the contrary, the treatment at 650 °C produced a fully recrystallized structure with sub-micrometric grains which guarantees higher strength and comparable ductility. The work demonstrated that EUROFER97 steel can be strengthened without compromising its ductility; the most effective process parameters will be identified by completing the analyses on all the prepared samples.

SiC fibers containing Y and Al were prepared by sintering the amorphous KD-Y fibers at different temperatures from 1200 to 1800 °C. The tensile strength of fibers increases when the sintering temperature increases from 1200 to 1400 °C due to the dispersion strengthening of β-SiC microcrystal and decreases to the lowest point when being sintered at 1600 °C, then rose again with the further increase of temperature to 1800 °C. The tensile strength reached to 2.15 GPa. The oxygen content of KD-Y fibers determined the properties of the sintered SiC fibers and sintering process. Through chemical vapor curing (CVC), the oxygen content was controlled below 7.0 wt% and the tensile strength of KD-Y fibers reached to 3.08 GPa. Further-more, the sintering process of KD-Y fibers was discussed and the grain size of β-SiC grew up with the heat treatment temperature.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of solid solution temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of the AA7075 alloy after T6 heat treatment was investigated. Following solid solution at five different temperatures for 2 hours, the AA7075 alloy was quenched and then artificially aged at 120∘C for 24 hours. Hardness measurements, microstructure examinations (SEM+EDS, XRD) and tensile tests were carried out for the alloys. The results showed that the increased solid solution temperature led to formation of precipitates in the microstructures and thus caused higher hardness and tensile strength.

Β Phase

The β phase spinodal decomposition during continuous cooling in Ti‒Nb‒O alloys is investigated by the phase-field method. Addition of only a few at.%O to Ti‒23Nb (at.%) alloy remarkably increases the driving force of the β phase spinodal decomposition. During isothermal heat treatment at 1000 K and 1100 K in Ti‒23Nb‒3O (at.%) alloy, the β phase separates into β1 phase denoted as (Ti)1(O, Va)3 and β2 phase denoted as (Ti, Nb)1(Va)3, resulting in the formation of nanoscale concentration modulation. The phase decomposition progresses in 0.3‒20 ms. In Ti‒23Nb‒XO alloys (X = 1.0, 1.2, 2.0), the spinodal decomposition occurs during continuous cooling with the rate of 500 K s‒1, indicating that the spinodal decomposition occurs during water quenching in the alloys. It is assumed that there is a threshold value of oxygen composition for inducing the spinodal decomposition because it does not occur during continuous cooling in Ti‒23Nb‒0.6O (at.%) alloy. The concentration modulation introduced by the β phase decomposition has significant effect on the β→α” martensitic transformation. Hence, it seems that for controlling microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti‒Nb‒O alloys, careful control of heat treatment temperature and cooling rate condition is required.

The martensitic transformation and superelasticity of Ti49Ni51 shape memory alloy heat-treatment at different temperatures were investigated. The experimental results show that the microstructures of as-cast and heat-treated (723 K) Ni-rich Ti49Ni51 samples prepared by rapidly-solidified technology are composed of B2 TiNi phase, and Ti3Ni4 and Ti2Ni phases; the microstructures of heat-treated Ti49Ni51 samples at 773 and 823 K are composed of B2 TiNi phase, and of B2 TiNi and Ti2Ni phases, respectively. The martensitic transformation of as-cast Ti49Ni51 alloy is three-stage, A→R→M1 and R→M2 transformation during cooling, and two-stage, M→R→A transformation during heating. The transformations of the heat-treated Ti49Ni51 samples at 723 and 823 K are the A↔R↔M/A↔M transformation during cooling/heating, respectively. For the heat-treated alloy at 773 K, the transformations are the A→R/M→R→A during cooling/heating, respectively. For the heat-treated alloy at 773 K, only a small thermal hysteresis is suitable for sensor devices. The stable σmax values of 723 and 773 K heat-treated samples with a large Wd value exhibit high safety in application. The 773 and 823 K heat-treated samples have large stable strain–energy densities, and are a good superelastic alloy. The experimental data obtained provide a valuable reference for the industrial application of rapidly-solidified casting and heat-treated Ti49Ni51 alloy.

Li Content

The effect of an impurity as a donor or an acceptor in ZnO film is determined by its distribution in ZnO lattice. In this paper the distribution of Li is investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL). It is found that Li-doped ZnO films own different dependence on heat treatment temperature by contrast with pure ZnO films. For Li-doped ZnO films, although the crystallinity is promoted after heat treatment at 500oC, it is impeded effectively after heat treatment at 600oC. The abnormal phenomenon implies that Li preferential inhabits at Zn-sublattice to form a substitutional defect as an acceptor unless Li content exceeds its solubility in Zn-sublattice. The change of the PL spectra of pure ZnO films after heat treatment at different temperatures reveals that the PL peak at 650nm origins from interstitial defects. Moreover, with the increase of Li content, the intensity of the peak at 650nm decreases firstly and then increases again. This interesting changing trend further reveals that superfluous Li will enter into the octahedral interspaces as donors. As a conclusion it is proposed that it is difficult to obtain high conductive p-ZnO by monodoping of Li.

Precipitated Phases

The influence of precipitated phases in Ni-based alloys during solid solution aging treatment on the performance of Ni-based alloys was investigated by means of metallographic observation, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The variation of microstructure and resultant phases as a result of solid solution aging treatment at different temperatures was discussed. The results show that the heat treatment temperature has significant influences on the type as well as quantity of precipitation phases. Lots of phases precipitated at grain boundaries, the distribution of precipitated phases are characterized by mesh-like structure. The corrosion tests results indicate that there is a potential difference between grains and grain boundaries due to the precipitation of chrome carbide at grain boundaries, resulting in pitting corrosion occurred preferentially at grain boundaries, consequently, the corrosion resistance of Ni-based alloys is reduced. In order to enhance the corrosion resistance of Ni-based alloys, it is expected to control the carbon content in a lower range and proper heat treatment process to avoid large amount precipitation of chrome carbide.

Thermal processing of all aluminum alloy conductors (AAAC) is an important step that is performed to enhance the electrical and mechanical properties after the drawing process. In these 6xxx alloys, mechanical strength and electrical conductivity are normally two mutually exclusive properties. With the increased demand for high performance power conductors, it is important to understand and control microstructural evolution processes (e.g., recovery and the formation of nanoscale precipitates) in these alloys for better electrical and mechanical characteristics. In this study, heat treatment was performed on as-drawn 6201 AAAC wire conductors. The variations in tensile strength and electrical resistivity were quantitatively studied as a function of both the treatment temperature and holding time. Two wire diameters commonly used in the manufacturing of medium and high voltage power cables were used: 1.7 mm and 3.5 mm. From the obtained data, significant changes in the electrical resistivity and tensile strength were observed with increasing the treatment time. For both wire diameters, it was observed that the correlation between strength and resistivity can be described by a simple exponential relationship. This link could be useful in predicting mechanical strength by monitoring electrical resistivity variations during industrial heat treatment of AAAC wire conductors.

Electron Back Scattered Diffraction

AbstractA thin-walled copper (Cu)–tin (Sn) alloy cylinder was treated after spinning at 200–400°C for 0.5 h. The characteristics of the alloy microstructure under different temperatures were analyzed through electron back-scattered diffraction. The results were as follows. The grain size at 200–300°C decreases as the heat treatment temperature rises, but the grain size at 400°C increases. At 200–300°C, the microstructure primarily consists of deformed grains. It is found that the main reason for the formation of high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) is static recrystallization. For the grain boundary orientation differential, the low-angle sub-grain boundary gradually grows into the HAGB, and multiple annealing twin Σ9 boundaries appear. Grain orientation is generally random at any temperature range. The mechanical property test indicated that, at the upper critical recrystallization temperature of 300°C, the elongation of the Cu–Sn alloy gradually increases, and its yield strength and ultimate tensile strength rapidly decrease.

This article is focused on a novel method to color wool fabric via heat treatment under an inert atmosphere. It can not only give new color to the fabric but also minimize pollution, because it is water and dye-free. The effects of temperature, time and different inert atmospheres (nitrogen, argon) used in the heat treatment on wool fabric color were studied. The bending stiffness, the crease recovery angle and tensile testing were used to analyze the mechanical properties of wool fabric before and after heat treatment. The color fastness to soaping and light of wool fabric after inert atmosphere heat treatment were compared with that of traditional basic yellow dyed wool fabric. The results showed that the K/ S value of wool fabric treated with a nitrogen and argon atmosphere increased with the increasing temperature and time. Under the same heat treatment conditions, the maximum K/ S value of fabric heat treated under nitrogen was higher than that under argon. The bending stiffness and crease recovery angle performance were improved and positively correlated with the heat treatment temperature and time. The samples treated under the same conditions under nitrogen showed higher bending stiffness and a lower crease recovery angle than under argon. The contact angle of the wool fabric after the treatment would decrease first and then increase with the increasing temperature. The tensile strength of the wool fabric would decrease with increasing temperature and time of the heat treatment in both nitrogen and argon, and the tensile strength of the wool fabric after treatment was higher than 80% of the original tensile strength, although the breaking elongation decreased. The color fastness to soaping and light of wool fabric after inert atmosphere heat treatment were better than for the traditional basic yellow dyed wool fabric. Therefore, the use of inert atmosphere heat treatment to endow wool fabric color is a potential research direction.
