AbstractThe oxidation behavior of grain-refined Cu–7.0 Cr alloy (GR Cu–7.0 Cr) in air at 973–1,073 K was investigated in comparison with normal casting Cu–7.0 Cr alloy (CA Cu–7.0 Cr). The oxidation of CA Cu–7.0 Cr alloy nearly followed parabolic law, while the oxidation kinetics of GR Cu–7.0 Cr slightly deviated from parabolic law. Both alloys almost produced multi-layered scales consisting of the outer layer of CuO and the inner layer of mixed Cr2O3 and Cu2O oxides plus internal oxidation zones of chromium. The grain-refined Cu–7.0 Cr alloy produced a more amount of Cr2O3 in the inner layer of the scale, and thus was oxidized at much lower oxidation rate than that of CA Cu–7.0 Cr with normal grain size. The experimental results indicated that the differences in oxidation behavior between two alloys may be ascribed to the different size and spatial distribution of the second-phase particles and the reactive component contents in localized zone.

Rule Out

Nanocrystalline metals are often produced in a state of stress which can adversely affect certain properties, e.g. corrosion resistance, wear, fatigue strength, etc. This stress is referred to as internal or “intrinsic” stress since it is not directly caused by applied loads. The structural causes of these stresses in nanocrystalline materials are not fully understood and are therefore an area of particular interest. The internal stresses of nanocrystalline Ni and Ni-16wt%Fe were measured and found to increase with the addition of iron. Characterization using HR-TEM revealed no signs of porosity, second phase particles, or a high density of dislocations. Both materials possessed well defined high-angle grain boundaries. The main structural difference between the two materials was found to be grain size and correspondingly, a decrease in grain size resulted in an increase in internal stress which supports the applicability of the coalescence theory. The current study also provides evidence to rule out the effect of voids (or porosity), dislocations, and second phases as possible causes of internal stress.

Large scale Potts model Monte Carlo simulation was carried on 3-dimensional square lattices of 1003 and 2003 sizes using the Metropolis algorithm to study grain growth behavior. Simulations were carried out to investigate both growth kinetics as well as the Zener limit in two-phase polycrystals inhibited in growth by second phase particles of single-voxel size. Initially the matrices were run to 10,000 Monte Carlo steps (MCS) to check the growth kinetics in both single phase and two-phase poly-crystals. Grain growth exponent values obtained as a result have shown to be highest (~ 0.4) for mono-phase materials while the value decreases with addition of second phase particles. Subsequently the matrices were run to stagnation in the presence of second phase particles of volume fractions ranging from 0.001to 0.1. Results obtained have shown a cube root dependence of the limiting grain size over the particle volume fraction thus reinforcing earlier 3D simulation efforts. It was observed that there was not much difference in the values of either growth kinetics or the Zener limit between 1003 and 2003 sized matrices, although the results improved mildly with size.

Some features ofstructure, way of production and mechanical properties of titanium andtwo-phase titanium alloys with ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure werediscussed. Various methods of UFG structure formation was considered andoptimal conditions for attaining of a homogeneous microstructure with thesmallest grain size were determined. The kinetics of microstructure evolutionin titanium and two-phase titanium alloys during large (severe) plasticdeformation in a wide temperature interval and the mechanisms of ultrafinegrain formation were analyzed. The influence of grain size on static mechanicalproperties was determined. Significantly reduced temperatures of superplasticforming of the UFG conditions were shown. Some examples of practical applicationsof the UFG two-phase titanium alloys were discussed.

Fe-25wt%Cr alloys were fabricated by combining Powder Metallurgy (PM) with hot-forging treatment, and their oxidation behavior at 1100°C in air was investigated systematically by using XRD, SEM and EDS, respectively. The results showed that a composite oxidation scale containing both Cr2O3and FeCr2O4formed on the surface of as-forged Fe-25wt%Cr alloys after oxidation at 1100°C in air for 100 hours. The oxidation process of Fe-Cr alloys could be obviously divided into two different stages, and the kinetics of two-stage oxidation agreed well with the parabolic law. The first could be corresponding to the formation of protective Cr2O3layer, while the second could be thought as the growth of FeCr2O4and the further oxidation of the inner Cr2O3oxidation scale. The faster oxidation rate in the second stage could be attributed to both the diffusion of iron ions rapider than that of Cr in the Cr2O3layer and the fast transport velocity of oxygen ions along the cracks.

Hydrostatic extrusion (HE) as a method of metals forming is known for about 100 years. Recently, it has been utilized as an efficient way of grain size refinement down to nanometer scale. In the case of engineering metals, HE processing alters not only grain size but also second phase particles such as intermetallic inclusions and precipitates. During HE processing, these particles significantly change their size, shape and spatial distribution. These changes are accompanied by improvement in properties of processed metals such as fatigue and fracture toughness. In the present work, changes of second phase particles induced by HE are described in a quantitative way for aluminium alloys. Their impact on mechanical properties is also discussed.

AbstractThe oxidation behavior of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn and Ti-6Al-4V produced by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) has been studied at 650–850°C in air for 24 h. The oxidation kinetics of both alloys followed the parabolic law with good approximation, except for Ti-5Al-2.5Sn oxidized at 850°C. Multi-layered scales formed on both alloys at 750°C and 850°C. Ternary additions of Sn and V accounted for the different morphology of the scales formed on these two alloys. In addition, the oxidation behavior of HIP alloys is compared with that of the corresponding cast alloys and the scaling mechanism is discussed.

AbstractSince the L12 structured Al3Ti alloy exists only in a narrow compositional range, further alloying of the single phase Ll2 alloy to improve its property seems hardly successful. Developing two-phase or multiphase Al3Ti alloys may be an effective approach for strengthening and toughening. In this article, a new type of Al3Ti-based alloy which has a Ll2 matrix with precipitates of a second phase is reported. The quaternary alloys based on Al67Mn8Ti25, and modified with Nb additions, consist of an Ll2 matrix and DO22 second phase particles in the annealed state, but the second phase can be dissolved by solution treatment and precipitated during high temperature aging. Remarkable strenghtening and promising compressive ductility were exhibited by the experimental alloy. The influence of composition on the microstructure and properties of the alloys are reported also.

The influence of additives such as MgO, NiO, and ZrO2 and impurities such as Na, K, and Ca on the sintering of alumina compacts has been the focus of a considerable amount of research. Since these additives affect compact density and grain size it is of interest to determine the behavior of the elements during processing. That is, it is important to know whether Ca and Mg segregate to grain boundaries or are located in the second-phase particles. Current results suggest that Ca is found uniformly at the grain boundaries and that Mg is accommodated in the second-phase particles.The present investigation is concerned with identifying second-phase particles in different commercially-produced Al2O3 compacts and studying both their structure and composition. Preliminary results have been discussed previously. The investigation has dealt mainly with two different alumina compacts. One compact was prepared from an initial powder containing 0.25% MgO, a small amount of intentionally added Ni, and was prepared by hot pressing.
