Abstract To avoid the formation of Ti-Ni intermetallics in a joint, three laser welding processes for Ti alloy–NiTi alloy joints were introduced. Sample A was formed while a laser acted at the Ti alloy–NiTi alloy interface, and the joint fractured along the weld centre line immediately after welding without filler metal. Sample B was formed while the laser acted on a Cu interlayer. The average tensile strength of sample B was 216 MPa. Sample C was formed while the laser acted 1.2 mm on the Ti alloy side. The one-pass welding process involved the creation of a joint with one fusion weld and one diffusion weld separated by the remaining unmelted Ti alloy. The mechanical performance of sample C was determined by the diffusion weld formed at the Ti alloy–NiTi alloy interface with a tensile strength of 256 MPa.

Rotary Friction welding is a process of solid state joining, broadly in shaft and pipe weld, in the field of automobile, defence, aeronautical, chemical and nuclear environment assembly pipe lines. Due to its some distinctive advantages similar to ease of fabricate, environmentally sociable, high fabrication value and appropriate for similar, dissimilar metal joint. Now a day’s Titanium alloy and stainless steel materials are very popular material in industrial application due to its high mechanical potency, and non-corrosive in nature. In this study an attempt was made to join commercial rod of Ti-6Al-4V and Stainless steel304L with some methods and evaluates the joint strength. Different intermediate metals are taking on in this process and the outcomes are witnesses. From that study the best method of in-between metal was analyzed by carry out mechanical and metallurgical test.

NiTi alloys, due to the special properties they posses, good corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and shape memory, are used successfully in the medical field. The paper presents research concerning the elaboration of the NiTi alloy in the form of spherical shape powder with hollow particles. This type of powder would be the raw material for fabricating light weight products like prosthesis or surgical implants. The aim of the research was to elaborate this type of powder and determine the alloy’s phases in correlation with the need of obtaining a specific particle shape. Along with these aspects it was attempted to form different testing samples through sintering operations.

Grain refining experiments for casting of pure Al were conducted to evaluate the grain refinement performance of an Al-5mass%Ti alloy refiner before and after cold rolling. Al3Ti particles in the Al-Ti alloy refiner were efficiently fragmented by cold rolling. The size of the Al3Ti particles in cold rolled Al-Ti alloy refiner decreased from 280μm to 30μm with increasing reduction ratio of cold rolling. Mean size of α-Al grains in pure Al cast refined by the cold rolled Al-Ti alloy refiner decreased from about 500μm to 200μm with increasing the reduction ratio. In order to investigate mechanical property of the pure Al cast refined by the cold rolled Al-Ti alloy refiner, Vickers hardness test and tensile test were conducted. Strength of the pure Al cast refined by the cold rolled Al-Ti alloy refiner increased with increasing the reduction ratio. The strength improvement of pure Al cast refined by the cold rolled Al-Ti alloy refiner followed Hall-Petch relationship. From obtained results, it was concluded that cold rolling for refiner is useful practical application for pure Al cast.

A spherically-shaped, microcrystalline Ni-Ti alloy powder having fairly nonhomogeneous particle size distribution and chemical composition was consolidated with shock input energy of 316 kJ/kg. In the process of consolidation, shock energy is preferentially input at particle surfaces, resulting in melting of near-surface material and interparticle welding. The Ni-Ti powder particles were 2-60 μm in diameter (Fig. 1). About 30-40% of the powder particles were Ni-65wt% and balance were Ni-45wt%Ti (estimated by EMPA).Upon shock compaction, the two phase Ni-Ti powder particles were bonded together by the interparticle melt which rapidly solidified, usually to amorphous material. Fig. 2 is an optical micrograph (in plane of shock) of the consolidated Ni-Ti alloy powder, showing the particles with different etching contrast.
