In order to obtain high-strength and high-ductility Al–Si–Cu–Mg alloys, the present research is focused on optimizing the composition of soluble phases, the structure and morphology of insoluble phases, and artificial ageing processes. The results show that the best matches, 0.4 wt% Mg and 1.2 wt% Cu in the Al–9Si alloy, avoided the toxic effect of the blocky Al2Cu on the mechanical properties of the alloy. The addition of 0.6 wt% Zn modified the morphology of eutectic Si from coarse particles to fine fibrous particles and the texture of Fe-rich phases from acicular β-Fe to blocky π-Fe in the Al–9Si–1.2Cu–0.4Mg-based alloy. With the optimization of the heat treatment parameters, the spherical eutectic Si and the fully fused β-Fe dramatically improved the ultimate tensile strength and elongation to fracture. Compared with the Al–9Si–1.2Cu–0.4Mg-based alloy, the 0.6 wt% Zn modified alloy not only increased the ultimate tensile strength and elongation to fracture of peak ageing but also reduced the time of peak ageing. The following improved combination of higher tensile strength and higher elongation was achieved for 0.6 wt% Zn modified alloy by double-stage ageing: 100 °C × 3 h + 180 °C × 7 h, with mechanical properties of ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of ~371 MPa, yield strength (YS) of ~291 MPa, and elongation to fracture (E%) of ~5.6%.

This study considers the influence of various heat treatment conditions on the change of steel microstructure parameters, mechanical properties and cold resistance at a temperature of-60 °C. The common behavior of these properties is considered depending on the heating temperature used for quenching and subsequent tempering. Based on the obtained results, heat treatment conditions are proposed that provide a combination of a guaranteed yield point σ0.2 ≥600 N/mm2 with a low-temperature impact toughness KCV-60 ≥50 J/cm2 and plasticity δ5 ≥17%. The obtained research results are intended for industrial use at the mill "5000" site of MMK PJSC.

In this paper,effect of the different forging processes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the flat flat billets of TA15 titanium alloy was investigated.The flat billiets of 80 mm×150 mm×L sizes of TA15 titanium alloy are produced by four different forging processes.Then the different microstrure and properties of the flat billiets were obtained by heat treatment of 800 °C~850 °C×1 h~4h.The results show that, adopting the first forging temperature at T1 °C、slow cooling and the second forging temperature at T2°C 、quick cooling, the primary αphases content is just 10%, and there are lots of thin aciculate phases on the base. This microstructure has both high strength at room temperature and high temperature, while the properties between the cross and lengthwise directions are just the same. So the hot processing of the first forging temperature at T1 °C、slow cooling and the second forging temperature at T2°C 、quick cooling is choosed as the ideal processing for production of aircraft frame parts.

The features of microstructure and mechanical properties of the aerospace high strength steel were studied after the implementation of various heat treatment modes: conventional oil quenching and tempering, quenching-partitioning, austempering. The dependence of the mechanical properties on the tempering temperature was determined. The basic patterns of the formation of mechanical properties during the implementation of isothermal heat treatment were considered. The optimal heat treatment conditions for the studied steel were established.

Due to its high strength, excellent electrical conductivity and high resistance to stress corrosion, Cu-Ni-Sn alloy has been selected as a kind of advanced metal material which can be used as the manufacture of springs, connectors, bearings and so on. In addition, the addition of Nb can efficiently improve the comprehensive properties of the alloy. In the present work, the effect of heat treatment conditions on microstructure and mechanical properties were studied in a Cu-9Ni-6Sn-0.22Nb alloy by means of optical microscopy (OM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), tensile test and microhardness tests. The results show that before ageing, a large number of fine γ precipitates with DO22 type structure are distributed on the matrix. With the prolongation of ageing time, the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), yield strength (YS) and Vickers hardness increased firstly, and then decline. The reason can be attributed to the occurrence of spinodal decomposition and the formation of discontinuous precipitation (DP). At first, spinodal decomposition induced the enhanced interaction between dislocations and internal stress field, resulting in an increase of mechanical properties. Then the increased DP at grain boundaries leads to the decline of strength in the material. Finally, the relationship between the microstructure and the electrical conductivity was also analyzed, and the results show that the electrical conductivity increased with ageing time/ageing temperature increasing for the present alloy. Through the analysis of Matthiessen’ s rule, the variation of electrical resistivity depends on precipitates, solute atoms, dislocations, vacancies and grain boundaries, and the precipitates play an important role among them. Besides, more precipitates improve electrical conductivity. Therefore, the increase of ageing time/ageing temperature induced the increase of DP, resulting in an increase of electrical conductivity.

The paper investigates the possibility of increasing the strength of the experimental high-alloyed titanium alloy due to various methods of thermal action, leading to a change in its phase composition and intragrain structure. Changes in mechanical properties in correlation with the change in structure in the annealed, tempered and heat-hardened state are reviewed. It is shown that by controlling phase transformations in highalloyed two-phase titanium alloys, it is possible to realize high-strength state with satisfactory plastic characteristics. The optimal complex of mechanical properties is provided by heat treatment, which leads to the creation of a two-phase heterogeneous structure with a developed bimodal intragrain structure.
