AbstractHigh temperature mechanical properties of various Zr and Cr strengthened single phase Ni3Al are investigated, with emphasis on the ability of each element to elevate Tp, the temperature corresponding to the peak yield strength. It is observed that Zr is a very effective strengthener, more so below Tp than above it, while a combination of Cr and Zr is capable of shifting Tp to a higher temperature. The combination results in an effective improvement of the rupture strength of Ni3Al. The strengthening mechanisms of each element will be discussed in this paper.

The effect of lanthanum (La)+cerium (Ce) addition on the high-temperature strength of an aluminum (Al)–silicon (Si)–copper (Cu)–magnesium (Mg)–iron (Fe)–manganese (Mn) alloy was investigated. A great number of plate-like intermetallics, Al11(Ce, La)3- and blocky α-Al15(Fe, Mn)3Si2-precipitates, were observed. The results showed that the high-temperature mechanical properties depended strongly on the amount and morphology of the intermetallic phases formed. The precipitated tiny Al11(Ce, La)3 and α-Al15(Fe, Mn)3Si2 both contributed to the high-temperature mechanical properties, especially at 300 °C and 400 °C. The formation of coarse plate-like Al11(Ce, La)3, at the highest (Ce-La) additions, reduced the mechanical properties at (≤300) ℃ and improved the properties at 400 ℃. Analysis of the strengthening mechanisms revealed that the load-bearing mechanism was the main contributing mechanism with no contribution from thermal-expansion mismatch effects. Strain hardening had a minor contribution to the tensile strength at high-temperature.

A series of NiTiAl based alloys with different amount of Nb addition were prepared and the effects of Nb on both the mechanical properties and microstructure evolution were investigated. The addition of Nb can remarkably enhance the high temperature yield strength of these alloys. The highest yield strength of the alloys with 10 at% Nb reaches 1237MPa at 873K and 875MPa at 973K, respectively. The Ti2Ni(Al,Nb) precipitates and the solution strengthening effect might be responsible for the high yield stress achieved at high temperature.

AbstractPoly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE)/siloxane nanocomposites have been prepared as ultra low-k dielectrics. These new nanocomposites show excellent high-temperature mechanical properties compared to unfilled PTFE while their dielectric constant almost remains unchanged. Specifically, the data from the dynamic mechanical study indicates that these nanocomposites have the mechanical behavior similar to that of crosslinked polymers. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) has been carried out to characterize the phase morphology of the PTFE/siloxane nanocomposites and the size of the inorganic networks. It has been shown that no phase separations or orientations appear in these nanocomposites in the range of 12 to 469 nm. These SANS results suggest that these materials are single-phase nanocomposites that are very homogeneous and isotropic. They are basically PTFE-based molecular composites.

The effects of minor Al and Ce on the microstructures, room-temperature and high-temperature mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Zn magnesium alloys were investigated. With the Al addition into Mg-6Zn alloy, the coarse eutectic Mg51Zn20phases were refined and distributed discontinuously. After adding 0.5wt.% Ce into Mg-6Zn-1Al alloy, a new needle-like Al2CeZn2phase was observed. Meanwhile, the volume fraction of Mg51Zn20phase decreased and the semi-continuous Mg51Zn20phase became discontinuous globular morphology. It has been observed that the addition of Ce element coarsens the grains, and 1wt.% Al addition enhanced the yield strength and ultimate strength from 86.35MPa, 229MPa to 90.7MPa, 238MPa, respectively. Moreover, the Ce addition can significantly increase the high-temperature mechanical properties of cast Mg-6Zn-1Al alloy.

Effect of niobium content on laminar precipitate and high temperature mechanical properties of 21-2N vavle steel was systematically studied, using specimens contain 0.26%, 0.43%, 0.65% 0.82% and 1.06% Nb. After different solid solution treatment and 750 °C aging heat treatment, experimental results showed that laminar precipitate was suppressed by niobium addition, and with the increasing of niobium content, laminar precipitate content decreased and size, distribution and morphology of laminar precipitate was meliorated. Then creep rupture strength and fatigue strength of experimental steels are improved with increasing of niobium.

It is expected that silicon nitride based ceramics will be used as high-temperature structural components. Though much progress has been made in both processing techniques and microstructural control, the mechanical properties required have not yet been achieved. It is thought that the high-temperature mechanical properties of Si3N4 are limited largely by the secondary glassy phases present at triple points. These are due to various oxide additives used to promote liquid-phase sintering. Therefore, many attempts have been performed to crystallize these second phase glassy pockets in order to improve high temperature properties. In addition to the glassy or crystallized second phases at triple points a thin amorphous film exists at two-grain junctions. This thin film is found even in silicon nitride formed by hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) without additives. It has been proposed by Clarke that an amorphous film can exist at two-grain junctions with an equilibrium thickness.
