ABSTRACTThe high-strength and ductile hypo-, hyper- and eutectic Ti-Fe alloys were formed in the shape of the arc-melted ingots with the dimensions of about 25–40 mm in diameter and 10–15 mm in height. The structure of the samples consists of cubic Pm 3 m TiFe and BCC Im 3 m β-Ti supersaturated solid solution phase. The arc-melted hypereutectic Ti65Fe35 alloy has a dispersed structure consisting of the primary TiFe phase and submicron-size eutectic structure. This alloy exhibits excellent mechanical properties: a Young's modulus of 149 GPa, a high mechanical fracture strength of 2.2 GPa, a 0.2 % yield strength of 1.8 GPa and 6.7 % ductility. The hard round-shaped intermetallic TiFe phase and the supersaturated β-Ti solid solution result in a high strength of the Ti65Fe35 alloy which in addition has much higher ductility compared to that of the nanostructured or glassy alloys. The reasons for the high ductility of the hypereutectic alloy are discussed.

Elemental Powder Mixture

Ni-30wt%Fe elemental power mixture was mechanically milled under argon atmosphere for variuos times up to 25h.The evolution of Ni-Fe alloying during milling and the microstructure of the as-milled powders were characterized by XRD, EPMA (electron probe microanalysis), SEM and TEM, respectively. The results show that nanocrystalline Ni (Fe) supersaturated solid solution alloy powders with 30wt. % Fe in composition can be synthesized by mechanical milling of the elemental powder mixture. Both the content of Fe dissolved and the microstrain developed in the as-synthesized Ni (Fe) solid solution phase increase, while the crystallite size decreases, steadily with increasing milling time. In particular, the Ni-30wt%Fe alloy powders obtained by 25h milling consist of a single Ni (Fe) supersaturated solid solution phase with average crystallite size of about 15nm and accumulated microstrain as high as 1.12%. DSC tests show that the nanocrystalline Ni-30wt%Fe alloy powders have a lower melting temperature than the elemental powder mixture, attributed to the unique Ni (Fe) solid solution phase structure, the nanocrystallization, and the high strain energy.

The structure of hypoeutectic, hypereutectic, and eutectic Ti–Fe alloys produced in the shape of arc-melted ingots was found to consist of the ordered Pm-3m TiFe and disordered BCC Im3m β–Ti solid solution phase. The dimensions of the ingots were about 25–40 mm in diameter and 10–15 mm in height, and their structure was studied by x-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy. The rectangular parallelepiped-shaped samples 2.5 × 2.5 × 5 mm in size cut from the central part of the ingots exhibit a high strength of about 2000 MPa, except for Ti60Fe40, and a certain ductility. The relatively low density of Ti (4.5 Mg/m3) implies high strength/density ratio for the studied alloys. These alloys are characterized by the low cost of the alloying element Fe and, compared to most of the high-strength non-equilibrium materials, do not require additional injection mold casting or rapid solidification procedures.

The present work addresses the microstructure evolution of refractory Me-Si-B (Me = Mo, V) alloys consisting of a refractory metal solid solution phase (MeSS) and two intermetallic phases Me5SiB2and Me3Si. The aim of the present study is to find the ternary eutectic composition in such systems which are expected to combine a well-defined eutectic microstructure with properties such as high strength, an excellent creep resistance at high temperatures and acceptable oxidation behavior. Two refractory metal systems based on molybdenum and vanadium are investigated. Various alloy compositions located in different primary solidification areas were produced by arc-melting and analyzed via SEM. The obtained results are discussed in the light of published liquidus projections. By carrying out these experiments, a MeSS-Me5SiB2-Me3Si ternary eutectic could be determined in both Me-Si-B systems.

ABSTRACTStructure and mechanical properties of binary Ti-TM (TM-other transition metals) and ternary Ti-Fe-(TM, B or Si) alloys produced in the shape of the arc-melted ingots of about 25 mm diameter and 10 mm height are studied. The formation of high-strength and ductile hypereutectic alloys was achieved in the Ti-Fe, Ti-Fe-Cu and Ti-Fe-B systems. The structures of the high-strength and ductile hypereutectic alloys studied by X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy were found to consist of the primary cubic Pm3 m intermetallic compound (TiFe-phase or a solid solution on its base) and a dispersed eutectic consisting of this Pm3m intermetallic compound + BCC Im 3 m β-Ti supersaturated solid solution phase. The hypereutectic Ti-Fe alloy showed excellent compressive mechanical properties. The addition of Cu improves its ductility. B addition increased mechanical strength. Ni, Cr and Mn additions caused embrittlement owing to the formation of alternative intermetallic compounds. The deformation behaviour and the fractography of the Ti-based alloys were studied in details. The reasons for the high strength and good ductility of the hypereutectic alloys are discussed.

Binary Nb-Hf alloys exhibit a wide bcc solid solution phase field at temperatures above the Hfα→ß transition (2023K) and a two phase bcc+hcp field at lower temperatures. The β solvus exhibits a small slope above about 1500K, suggesting the possible existence of a miscibility gap. An earlier investigation showed that two morphological forms of precipitate occur during the bcc→hcp transformation. The equilibrium morphology is rod-type with axes along <113> bcc. The crystallographic habit of the rod precipitate follows the Burgers relations: {110}||{0001}, <112> || <1010>. The earlier metastable form, transition α, occurs as thin discs with {100} habit. The {100} discs induce large strains in the matrix. Selected area diffraction examination of regions ∼2 microns in diameter containing many disc precipitates showed that, a diffuse intensity distribution whose symmetry resembled the distribution of equilibrium α Bragg spots was associated with the disc precipitate.

The interfacial reactions between ceramic moulds and DZ417G and DZ125 superalloys were investigated. The microstructure and composition of the interface region were observed by optical microscope, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The results showed that (Al1-xCrx)2O3solid solution phase with pink color was formed from the dissolution of Cr2O3and Al2O3and vapour phase, which was transferred to the reaction surfaces. The reaction layer thicknesses of DZ417G and DZ125 alloys were about in the range of 40-50μm. The interface reaction product between DZ417G alloy and ceramic mould was TiO2and the product between DZ125 alloy and ceramic mould was HfO2.
