A15 Phase

Alloys of Nb73Al12Si14.5B0.5 were rapidly solidified into amorphous ribbons using the melt spinning technique. These were isothermally annealed at temperatures ranging from 660 to 780 °C. The A15 phase began to crystallize at 700 °C and small amounts of second phases appeared at the higher temperatures. Crystallization was dependent on quenching rate as well as annealing conditions. Below 750 °C nucleation was nonuniform and was enhanced by surfaces and quenched-in nuclei. Above 750 °C nucleation became more uniform and completely crystalline ribbons with equiaxed grains ∼30 nm in diameter were obtained. These ultra fine grained ribbons had extremely high superconducting critical current densities of 8 × 1010 A/m2 and 5 × 1010 A/m2 at magnetic fields of 0.5 and 15 tesla, respectively, at 4.2 K.

Phase Strains

ABSTRACTA series of Nb-Al-V alloys containing 20–40 at. % V and 10–25 at. % Al have been investigated. The phase distributions in the alloys indicate that Al promotes the formation of the A15 phase whilst V stabilises a B2 phase. Room temperature compression testing revealed that the B2 is inherently ductile such that for the alloys with less than 40% by volume of the A15 phase, strains of over 50% were obtained easily. The 2% offset yield stresses of these alloys did not vary significantly with composition, being 1.2±0.1GPa in each case. TEM studies were used to show that the deformation in the B2 phase occurs predominantly by the glide of screw-type super-partial dislocations with b=l/2<111> on {110} and {112}. In some alloys this dislocation activity was preceded by the formation of pseudo-twins, via a martensitic shear transformation.

AbstractThe B2 ordering and phase stability of three ordered intermetallic alloys with compositions (in at.%) of Nb-15Al-10Ti (10Ti alloy), Nb-15A1-40Ti (40Ti alloy), and Nb-15Al-25Ti (25Ti alloy) have been studied. All three alloys have the B2 crystal structure in the as-cast form. The Atom Location by Channeling Enhanced Microanalysis (ALCHEMI) technique has been employed to assess the site occupancy of these B2 alloys. The results of site occupancy are represented as Ordering Tie Lines on a ternary composition diagram. Various second phases were observed in heat treated samples. An ω-type phase was found in the 1OTi alloy in samples heat treated for 10 minutes and 4 hours at 900°C. At 800°C, orthorhombic phase was found in the 40Ti alloy while a three phase microstructure of o-phase/B2/A15 was observed in both the 10Ti and 25Ti alloys. Annealing at 1100°C leads to the dissolution of the o-phase and the presence of A15 phase in the 10Ti and 25Ti alloys, but no other phase in the 40Ti alloy. The observed phase equilibria in these alloys are compared with those in the literature.

A15 Phase

AbstractThe A15 Phase forming V-Ga alloys were processed into ribbons and foils by rapid solidification techniques. Microstructures and phase transformation in these alloys by rapid solidification and succeeding heat treatment were investigated by x-ray diffraction and TEM. It is shown that equilibrium A15 phases can readily be suppressed by rapid quenching in these alloys. A significant grain refinement resulting from the rapid solidification also was observed. Microhardnesses of these alloys as a function of Ga concentration were determined.
