AbstractThe mechanical properties of a β-containing Ti-Al-Cr alloy were investigated at ambient and elevated temperatures. The results show that the Ti-Al-Cr alloy containing the β phase has a very high tensile strength but a poor ductility at ambient temperature, and that higher ductility is obtained at high temperatures. The temperature dependence of mechanical properties is found to be sensitive to the strain rate during the test. Fractography shows that the fracture mode changes from fully brittle to ductile-brittle mixture with the increased temperature. All the results suggest that the triple-phased TiAl alloys (α2+β+γ) may have the combined mechanical properties of the dual-phased T13Al ((α2+β) and dual-phased TiAl (α2+γ) alloys.

Abstract In order to develop light weight electrical components, the nano-sized lead free solders have been identified as potential materials to provide better mechanical properties as compared to the conventional solders. Sn–Ag–Cu (SAC) solders have been widely acknowledged as one of the most promising replacements for Sn-Pb solders. In our previous work, mechanical properties of single crystal SAC solder material were investigated through atomistic simulation studies. In this work, the mechanical properties of nanocrystalline SAC305 (nc-SAC305) (96.5Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu) solder have been investigated through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. A set of modified embedded atom method (MEAM) potential parameters have been proposed for nc-SAC solder. Impact of grain size, strain rate and temperature on the uniaxial tensile properties have been studied. The results have revealed an inverse Hall-Petch relationship in the nc-SAC305 material, and grain boundary decohesion is observed as the dominating failure mechanism. The results also suggest that the ultimate tensile strength of SAC305 significantly increases with increasing strain rate. Moreover, increased ductility and decreased ultimate tensile strength are observed at elevated temperatures.

Hot Die Forging

AbstractBecause of the small “deformation window” hot-working of γ-TiAl alloys is a complex and difficult task and, therefore, isothermal forming processes are favoured. In order to increase the deformation window a novel Nb and Mo containing γ-TiAl based alloy (TNM™ alloy) was developed. Due to a high volume fraction of β-phase at elevated temperatures the alloy can be hot-die forged under near conventional conditions, which means that conventional forging equipment with minor and inexpensive modifications can be used. With subsequent heattreatments balanced mechanical properties can be achieved. This paper summarizes our progress in establishing a “near conventional” forging route for the fabrication of γ-TiAl components. The results of lab scale compression tests and forging trials on an industrial scale are included. In addition, the mechanical properties of forged and heat-treated TNM™ material are presented.

Fillers play important roles in enhancing mechanical properties of NR latex films. The effect of filler dispersion and amount of dispersing agent to the tensile strength and tearing energy of NR latex films were investigated in this study. The studies were carried out by (i) varying the amount of dispersing agent (Anchoid) added which is an anionic surfactant; and (ii) varying the speed of stirring during mixing of latex with compounding ingredients. It was observed that tensile strength and tearing energy were affected by both factors listed. In the case of NR latex film filled with 10 pphr of carbon black (Super Abrasion Furnace, SAF), the optimum stirring speed was 400 rpm and the optimum amount of surfactant was in the range of 5 to 10 % by weight. High tensile strength ranging from 29 - 31 MPa and high tearing energies ranging from 90.6 - 111.0 kJ/m2were achieved from optimization of these two factors; rendering their importance.

Samples of the 6063 (Al-1.09Mg2Si) alloy ingot were melted in a crucible furnace and cast in metal and sand moulds, respectively. Standard tensile, hardness, and microstructural test specimens were prepared from cast samples, solution treated at 520∘C, soaked for 6 hrs, and immediately quenched at ambient temperature in a trough containing water to assume a supersaturated structure. The quenched specimens were then thermally aged at 175∘C for 3–7 hrs. Results show that at different ageing time, varied fractions of precipitates and intermetallics evolved in the specimens’ matrices which affect the resulting mechanical properties. The metal mould specimens aged for four hours (MTA-4) exhibited superior ultimate tensile strength of 247.8 MPa; microhardness, 68.5 HV; elongation, 28.2% . It is concluded that the extent of improvement in mechanical properties depends on the fractions, coherence, and distribution of precipitates along with the type of intermetallics developed in the alloy during ageing process.

The present study focuses on the effect of 1% Zr addition on the microstructure, tensile properties and superplasticity of a forged SP700 alloy. The results demonstrated that Zr has a significant effect on inhibiting the microstructural segregation and increasing the volume fraction of β-phase in the forged SP700 alloy. After annealing at 820 °C for 1 h and aging at 500 °C for 6 h, the SP700 alloy with 1% Zr showed a completely globular and fine microstructure. The yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and tensile elongation of the alloy with optimized microstructure were 1185 MPa, 1296 MPa and 10%, respectively. The superplastic deformation was performed at 750 °C with an elongation of 1248%. The improvement of tensile properties and superplasticity of the forged SP700 alloy by Zr addition was mainly attributed to the uniform and fine globular microstructures.

The effect of heat treatment condition on non-Cu AA7021 alloy was investigated with respect to mechanical properties and very high cycle fatigue behavior. With a focus on the influence of heat treatment, AA7021 alloy was solution heat-treated at 470 °C for 4 h and aged at 124 °C. Comparing the results of solution-treated and peak-aged AA7021 alloy shows a significant increase in Vickers hardness and tensile strength. The hardness of AA7021 alloy was increased by 65% after aging treatment, and both tensile strength and yield strength were increased by 50~80 MPa in each case. In particular, this paper investigated the very high cycle fatigue behavior of AA7021 alloy with the ultrasonic fatigue testing method using a resonance frequency of 20 kHz. The fatigue results showed that the stress amplitude of peak-aged AA7021 alloy was about 50 MPa higher than the solution-treated alloy at the same fatigue cycles. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the size of the crack initiation site was larger after peak aging than after solution treatment.

The microstructures, phase constitutions and mechanical properties of as-cast samples, extruded rods and plates of Mg-3.52Sn-3.32Al and Mg-6.54Sn-4.78Al alloys were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and mechanical testing. The results show that as-cast microstructure consists of α-Mg matrix, Mg2Sn and a few dispersed β-Mg17Al12 phases. The two as-cast alloys exhibit good tensile mechanical properties. After hot extrusion, dynamic recrystallization occurs. Average grain size reaches 6 μm ~ 8 μm for rods, and a lot of fine micro-scaled particles exist, resulting in significant enhancement of tensile mechanical properties. The extruded Mg-3.52Sn-3.32Al rod exhibits better comprehensive tensile mechanical property than AZ31B alloy, with tensile strength σb of 295 MPa, yield strength of 200 MPa and elongation of 21.5% at ambient temperature. The extruded Mg-6.54Sn-4.78Al rod exhibits equivalent comprehensive tensile mechanical properties with ZK60 alloy, achieving tensile strength of 355 MPa, yield strength of 275 MPa and elongation of 11% at ambient temperature. The extruded plates at ambient temperature performed a tensile strength of 270 MPa.

Strength And Ductility

Two γ-based TiAl alloys with 7 at.% of Nb, alloyed with 2 at.% Mo and 0.5 at.% C, were studied. A heat treatment leading to very fine lamellar microstructure was applied on both alloys. Microstructure after the heat treatment was described and mechanical properties including fatigue behaviour were measured. The as-received material alloyed with C possesses high strength and very limited ductility, especially at RT. After application of selected heat treatment it becomes even more brittle; therefore, this process could be considered as not appropriate for this alloy. On the contrary, in the case of Mo alloyed material, both strength and ductility are improved by the heat treatment at RT and usual working temperature (~750 °C). Presence of the β phase is responsible for this effect. The selected heat treatment thus can be an alternative for this alloy to other thermomechanical treatments as high temperature forging.
