AbstractThe boron modified poly(vinyl)silazane polymer precursor with the chemical composition (B[C2H4Si(CH3)NH]3)n was milled and sieved. The polymer particles from different size fractions were compacted using a graphite die in a uni-axial warm pressing machine at a pressure of 48 MPa and in the temperature range 250°C to 330°C. The green bodies were pyrolysed in an argon atmosphere at a temperature of 1300°C when the organic polymer converts into an inorganic amorphous Si-B-C-N ceramic. These amorphous ceramics were annealed under various conditions of temperature, nitrogen overpressure and holding time in order to crystallize them and to produce nano-crystalline microstructures. Compression creep experiments were carried out in atmospheric ambience at loads varying from 5 – 100 MPa and in the temperature range 1350°C – 1500°C to investigate the high temperature deformation behaviour of the crystalline material. The interest is to understand the mechanisms of deformation in these nanocrystalline Si-B-C-N ceramics at elevated temperatures and to compare the results with that of amorphous ceramics. The investigation also includes the determination of viscosity of the material at high temperatures.

We review the current development status of Mo-Si-B alloys consisting of Mo solid solution and the intermetallic phases Mo3Si and Mo5SiB2 which could take advantage of the beneficial oxidation resistance of the silicide phases and of the outstanding mechanical properties of molybdenum. For adequate low temperature toughness a continuous Mo solid solution matrix should be established in the microstructure. Besides, wrought processing of such alloys at elevated temperatures requires the presence of an ultra-fine grained (UFG) microstructure. Both the prerequisites can be fulfilled using mechanical alloying (MA) as the crucial processing step which even yields nanostructured supersaturated powders after milling. However, values for the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) close to room temperature are unlikely due to grain boundary embrittlement by Si segregation. The possibility of reducing this segregation tendency by various micro-alloying additions will be demonstrated. Finally, the high temperature deformation behaviour of these UFG materials will be comparatively assessed against state-of-the-art Nickelbase single-crystalline superalloys.

ABSTRACTA basic characterization of the deformation behavior of Cr2Nb by microindention at ambient and elevated temperatures (up to 1400 °C) was undertaken. The microhardness of this system was seen to decrease with increasing temperature, from 1040 MPa at 25°C to 322 MPa at 1400 °C. Further, the microindention creep behavior of this system was studied by varying time on load at T = 1000 and 1200°C. Analysis of the data showed that m = 24 and Qapp = 477.61 kJ/mole. These unusually high values are indicative of the existence of an effective resisting stress against creep. When the data was fit against a microindention creep deformation law which was modified to incorporate an effective resisting stress term, it was determined that m = 4.5, Qcreep = 357 kJ/mole and the resisting stress term σr = 300 MPa.

Isothermal compressions of as-cast near-α Ti90 titanium alloy were carried out on a Gleeble-3800 simulator in the temperature range of 860–1040 °C and strain rates of 0.001–10 s−1. The deformation behavior of the alloy was characterized based on the analyses of flow curves, the constructions of Arrhenius constitutive equations and the processing map. The microstructure evolution of the alloy was analyzed using the optical microscopic (OM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques. The results show that the kinking and dynamic globularization of α lamellae is the dominant mechanism of flow softening in the α + β two-phase region, while the dynamic recovery (DRV) of β phase is the main softening mechanism in the β single-phase region. The dynamic globularization of α lamellae is mainly caused by the wedging of β phase into α laths and the shearing of α laths due to imposed shear strain. The activation of prismatic and pyramidal slip is found to be easier than that of basic slip during the deformation in the α + β two-phase region. In addition, the Schmid factor of equiaxial α is different from that of lamellar α, which also varies with the angle between its geometric orientation and compression direction (CD). Based on the processing map, the low η region within the temperature range of 860–918 °C with a strain rate range of 0.318–10 s−1 should be avoided to prevent the occurrence of deformation instability.

AbstractIn this study, the high-temperature deformation behaviour of a TC17 titanium alloy was investigated by isothermal hot compression tests in a wide range of temperatures (973–1223 K) and strain rates (0.001–10 s−1). Then, the constitutive equations of different phase regimes (α + β and single β phases) were developed on the basis of experimental stress-strain data. The influence of the strain has been incorporated in the constitutive equation by considering its effect on different material constants for the TC17 titanium alloy. Furthermore, the predictability of the developed constitutive equation was verified by the correlation coefficient and average absolute relative error. The results indicated that the obtained constitutive equations could predict the high-temperature flow stress of a TC17 titanium alloy with good correlation and generalization.
