ABSTRACTThe effect of W addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ni3Al (L12) and Ni3V (D022) two-phase intermetallic alloys has been investigated. W was added to the base alloy composition, Ni75Al10V12Nb3 (at. %) in place of either Ni, Al or V. The W-added alloy ingots were heat-treated in vacuum at 1575 K for 5 h. The majority of W-added alloys showed a dual two-phase microstructures while the alloy in which 3 at. % W substituted for Ni exhibited the dual two-phase microstructure containing W solid solution dispersions. Vickers hardness was significantly enhanced by W addition, which is primarily due to solid-solution strengthening.

Si Addition

ABSTRACTThe effect of Si addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of dual two-phase intermetallic alloys was investigated. Si was added to the base alloy composition Ni75Al9V13Nb3 + 50 wt. ppm B by three substitution ways in which Si was substituted either for Ni, for Al and for V, respectively. The alloys added with 1 at.% Si showed a dual two-phase microstructure composed of Ni3Al (L12) and Ni3V (D022) phases, while the alloys added with over 2 at.% Si exhibited the same dual two-phase microstructure but contained third phases. The third phases were G phase (Ni16Si7Nb6) and A2 phase (the bcc solid solution consisting of Nb and V). Yield and tensile strength of the 1 at.% Si-added alloys were high in the alloy in which Si was substituted for Al but low in the alloys in which Si was substituted for Ni or for V, in comparison with those of the base alloy. Tensile elongation was lower than that of the base alloy irrespective of substitution ways. The density of the Si added alloys was close to or slightly lower than that of the base alloy. Oxidation resistance of the Si added alloy was increased. Si addition to the dual two-phase intermetallic alloys is beneficial for reducing the density and enhancing the oxidation resistance without a harmful reduction of strength properties.

Solution Strengthening

With different heat treatment, the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy were investigated. It can be concluded that heat treatment has great effect on mechanical properties of ZK60. With artificial aging after extruding, the precipitation of the second phase from the supersaturated solid solution significantly improved mechanical properties. It can greatly increase yield strength of ZK60 alloy, while the tensile strength has little change. For the combination of solid solution strengthening and age hardening, two opposite factors must be considered. On one hand, the solid solution strengthening and the later precipitation strengthening is good for alloy’s strength; on the other hand, the properties decrease as the grains grew under high temperature for a long time during solution heating.

Dual two-phase intermetallic alloys composed of geometrically close packed (GCP) structures of Ni3Al(L12) and Ni3V(D022) containing Nb were investigated in terms of the microstructural evolution during low temperature annealing (aging) and the related mechanical properties. The eutectoid region, i.e. the prior Al phase (Ni solid solution) is composed of the lamellar-like structure consisting of Ni3Al(L12) and Ni3V(D022) phases. The lamellar-like structure tended to align along <001> direction and on {001} plane in the prior A1 phase (or the L12 phase). In a wide range of temperature, the dual two-phase intermetallic alloys showed high yield and tensile strength, and also reasonable tensile ductility, accompanied with ductile fracture mode.

The Mg-Sn-Ca alloys have shown superior creep properties compared to the creep resistant alloy AE42. In the present study, the effects of small amounts of Al and Si additions on the mechanical properties have been investigated on a Mg-3Sn-2Ca (TX32) alloy. The Al content in the selected alloys was 0.4 wt% and the Si content was varied from 0–0.8 wt% in steps of 0.2 wt.%. The alloys were cast in pre-heated permanent molds. Cylindrical specimens machined from the cast billets were tested in compression in the temperature range 25–250 °C at a strain rate of 0.0001 s–1. The alloy with 0.4 wt% Al shows an increased strength at all test temperatures compared with the TX32 base alloy. This is attributed to a solid solution strengthening of Al in Mg. The alloy with 0.4 wt% Al and 0.2 wt% Si has compressive strength that is closer to that of the TX32 alloy. However, increased additions of Si (from 0.4–0.8 wt%) reduce the strength, more significantly at higher temperatures.

The Mg-1.0Zn-xCa (x=0.2, 0.5, 0.8, 1 wt. %) alloys were prepared by zone solidification and backward extrusion technology. The microstructure and mechanical properties of backward-extruded Mg-1.0Zn-xCa alloys were investigated. The results showed that these backward-extruded Mg-1.0Zn-xCa alloys were mainly composed of equi-axed pentagon-shaped grains and some Mg0.9Zn0.03 precipitates. The tensile and compressive strengths of backward-extruded Mg-1.0Zn-xCa alloys were greatly improved. The improved mechanical properties are mostly attributed to fine grain strengthening, solid solution strengthening and precipitate strengthening. The results demonstrated that the micro alloying of Ca element was one of effective method to improve the mechanical properties of Mg-1.0Zn based biomaterials.

The Cu-Cr and Cu-Cr-Ti alloy plates were prepared by vacuum melting and plastic deformation. The effect of slight Ti element on microstructure and mechanical properties of Cu-Cr alloy was discussed. The result shows that Cr particles with spherical shape precipitated from Cu matrix after aging. Plenty Ti atoms dissolved in the vicinity of Cr particles and there were still parts of solid solution Ti atoms in other regions. Improvements in peak hardness and softening resistance were achieved with the addition of Ti element in Cu-Cr alloy. The addition of 0.1 wt.% Ti element makes Cu-Cr alloy possess tensile strength of 565 MPa and hardness of 185.9 HV after aging at 450 °C for 120 min, which can be attributed to multiple strengthening mechanisms, i.e. work hardening, solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening.

ABSTRACTIt was experimentally shown that the achievement of a high deforming stress level due to dispersion hardening and solid solution strengthening of FCC single crystals with a low stacking-fault energy leads to the deformation mechanism changing from slip to twinning, the dependence of mechanical properties on a crystal orientation and a sign of applied stresses. During deformation by twinning at T<150–300K effects of pseudoelasticity associated with elastic twinning is observed.
