Fracture surfaces of Zr-based bulk metallic glasses of various compositions tested in the as-cast and annealed conditions were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. The tougher samples have shown highly jagged patterns at the beginning stage of crack propagation, and the length and roughness of this jagged pattern correlate well with the measured fracture toughness values. These jagged patterns, the main source of energy dissipation in the sample, are attributed to the formation of shear bands inside the sample. This observation provides strong evidence of significant “plastic zone” screening at the crack tip.

Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG) memiliki sifat mekanik, magnetik, kimia dan fisik yang berbeda dengan paduan polikristalin karena susunan internal atomnya yang tidak teratur. Sehingga, BMG memiliki kekuatan mekanik yang baik, kekerasan yang tinggi, ketahanan terhadap aus dan korosi yang tinggi, dan kehalusan permukaan yang baik. Berdasarkan sifat tersebut, BMG memiliki kelayakan yang menjanjikan di bidang industry. Dalam penelitian ini, metode pengecoran cetakan di tembaga digunakan untuk menyiapkan BMG paduan Cu45Zr45Al5Ag5. Paduan dileburkan ulang dengan pendinginan super cepat menggunakan mesin pendingin di bawah temperatur -25 oC. Dengan metode pengecoran cetakan di tembaga, sampel ukuran besar berbentuk batang dipotong dengan diameter 2 mm hingga 4 mm dan panjang 30 mm. Batang kemudian dipotong lagi menjadi spesimen berbentuk cakram. Untuk memastikan apakah sampel adalah BMG atau tidak, sampel dievaluasi dengan Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersion Spectrometer (EDS), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Electron Probe X-ray Micro Analyzer (EPMA), dan X -ray Difraction (XRD). Hasilnya dibahas dalam penelitian ini. Kata Kunci: Bulk Metallic Glasses, Cu45Zr45Al5Ag5, Pengecoran Cetakan di Tembaga.

AbstractThe fracture toughness of Zr-based bulk metallic glasses of various compositions was studied in the as-cast and annealed condition. Properties were characterized using x-ray and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and fracture surfaces were examined using electron microscopy (SEM). Quaternary Zr-Ti-Cu-Be alloys consistently had linear elastic fracture toughness values greater than 80 MPa·m1/2, while Vitreloy 1, a Zr-Ti-Cu-Ni-Be alloy, had an average fracture toughness of 48.5 MPa·m1/2 with a large amount of scatter. The addition of iron to Vitreloy 1 reduced the fracture toughness to 25 MPa·m1/2. Fracture surfaces were carefully analyzed using electron microscopy. Some samples had highly jagged patterns at the beginning stage of crack propagation, and the roughness of this jagged pattern correlated well with the measured fracture toughness values. These jagged patterns, the main source of energy dissipation in the sample, were attributed to the formation of shear bands inside the sample. The Zr-Ti-Cu-Be alloy, having KQ=85 MPa·m1/2 as cast, was annealed at various time/temperature combinations. When the alloy was annealed 50°C below Tg, the fracture toughness dropped to 6 MPa·m1/2, while DSC and X-ray showed the alloy to still be amorphous. The roughness of the fracture surfaces on relaxed samples also compared well with the relative fracture toughness.

The effect of different titanium additions (0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 10 vol. %), milling intensity (4 and 8 h) and sintered temperature (1500 and 1600 °C) on microstructure and fracture toughness of Al2O3-based composites was analyzed in this study. After high energy milling of a titanium and Al2O3mixtures, powder mixture presents fine distribution and good homogenization between ceramic and metal. After milling powders during 8 h they were obtained very fine particles with 200 nm average sizes. Microstructures of the sintered bodies were analyzed with a scanning electron microscopy, where it was observed that the microstructure presents the formation of a small and fine metallic net inside the ceramic matrix. From fracture toughness measurements realized by the fracture indentation method, it had that when titanium content in the composite increases, fracture toughness is enhanced until 83% with respect to the fracture toughness of pure Al2O3. This behavior is due to the formation of metallic bridges by titanium in the Al2O3matrix.

ZrB2-20%volSiC ceramic composites with different volume of BN short fiber were fabricated by the hot-pressing sintering under 2000°C. The content of BN short fiber changed from 0 to 15vol%. The density, flexural strength, fracture toughness and thermal expansions coefficient were studied. The microstructures of the samples were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the introducing of BN short fiber into the ZrB2-20%volSiC lead to a serious of change to the mechanical properties of the ceramic. When the content of the BN short fiber is 10vol%, the flexural strength and fracture toughness reach 422.1MPa and 6.15 MPa•m 1/2 respectively. And the mechanism of the increasing toughness was studied.

Multi-pass hot rolling was performed on bi-modal Ti-55511 alloy with 50% rolling reduction at 700 °C. Mechanical properties were evaluated by tensile test, and microstructure evolution was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that the Ti-55511 alloy with bi-modal microstructure exhibits good strength and high ductility (1102 MPa, 21.7%). Comparatively, after 50% hot rolling, an enhanced strength and decreased ductility were obtained. The refinement of α phases leads to the increased tensile strength, while the fragmentation of the equiaxed α phase results in a decreased ductility. The fragmentation process of equiaxed α phases followed the sequence of: elongation of α phases → formation of grooves and localized shear bands → the final fragmentation accomplished via deepening grooves.

It is well understood that bone quality deteriorates due to aging, disease, etc., and may be affected by factors at different length scales due to its hierarchical microstructure. Fracture toughness is one of the properties that assess bone quality. The compact sandwich (CS) specimen gives a better choice of bone sample size, and therefore suits a wide variety of fracture toughness testing needs and constraints. Reliable and statistically valid overall CS specimen size requirements are established in this paper; these serve as guidelines for choosing the CS specimen size. Finite element analysis (FEA) is used for simulating fracture toughness tests. Experimental fracture toughness tests are carried out to verify the FEA results. The experimental results are verified qualitatively by performing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) on the fractured specimen surfaces.

Abstract The fracture surfaces of a NBR vulcanizate after different test conditions have been studied by scanning electron microscopy. It has been shown that failure surfaces manifest typical characteristics dependent on the nature of the test. Tensile fracture surface shows occurrence of two different tear rates in the case of a filled NBR vulcanizate, while tear fracture is characterized by a few long flow lines. De Mattia flexing leads to layering of polymer fibers. Heat buildup and abrasion tests generate a ribbed structure on the surface.
