High-strength medium-carbon martensitic steel was heat treated through a quenching-partitioning-tempering (Q-P-T) treatment. Both the mechanism for improved ductility and the high temperature stability of austenite were investigated. The Q-P-T martensitic steel showed good products of strength and elongation (PSE) at various deformation temperatures ranging within 25–350 °C. The optimum PSE value (>57,738 MPa%) was achieved at 200 °C. The microstructure of the Q-P-T steel is constituted of laths martensite with dislocations, retained austenite located within lath martensite and small niobium carbides (NbC), and/or transitional ε-carbides that precipitated in the lath martensite. The good ductility can be mainly attributed to the laminar-like austenite that remained within the lath-martensite. The austenite can effectively enhance ductility through the effect of dislocation absorption by the retained austenite and through transformation-induced plasticity. The relationship between the microstructures and mechanical properties was investigated at high deformation temperatures.

Experimental work on the spot welding of Maraging Steels revealed a surprisingly low level of strength - both in the as welded and in aged conditions. This appeared unusual since in the welding of these materials by other welding processes (TIG,MIG) the strength level is almost that of the base material. The maraging steel C250 investigated had the composition: 18wt%Ni, 8wt%Co, 5wt%Mo and additions of Al and Ti. It has a nominal tensile strength of 250 KSI. The heat treated structure of maraging steel is lath martensite the final high strength is reached by aging treatment at 485°C for 3-4 hours. During the aging process precipitation takes place of Ni3Mo and Ni3Ti and an ordered solid solution containing Co is formed.Three types of spot welding cycles were investigated: multi-pulse current cycle, bi-pulse cycle and single pulsle cycle. TIG welded samples were also tested for comparison.The microstructure investigations were carried out by SEM and EDS as well as by fractography. For multicycle spot welded maraging C250 (without aging), the dendrites start from the fusion line towards the nugget centre with an epitaxial growth region of various widths, as seen in Figure 1.

The temperature factor is one of the limiting factors for obtaining high yields of crops, so one of the main tasks of selection is to search for temperature-resistant genotypes and to create on their basis the banks of crops with high temperature stability. The first step to solving this problem is to conduct a rapid assessment of the temperature plasticity of large populations and to isolate breeding-valuable genotypes from them. There are numerous methods that allow, in the short term with minimal technical and material costs, to carry out an initial assessment of a large number of genotypes at sporophytic level and differentiate them by resistance to the temperature factor. These methods include the method of estimating pollen populations. These studies have repeatedly been conducted on many cultures, their correctness is due to the expression of a large part of the plant genome, both at the diploid and haploid levels of development and demonstrated by many studies in this direction. The aim of our study was to study the stability of gametophyte and sporophyte of collecting varieties and varieties of winter rape to elevated temperatures, to study the correlation between the heat resistance of sporophyte and gametophyte.

AbstractThis article reviews two topics related to the stability of hard coatings composed of nanometer-thick layers: epitaxial stabilization and high-temperature stability. Early work on nanolayered hard coatings demonstrated large hardness increases as compared with monolithic coatings, but it was subsequently found that the layers interdiffused at elevated temperatures. More recently, it has been shown that nanolayers exhibit good stability at elevated temperatures if the layer materials are thermodynamically stable with respect to each other and are able to form low-energy coherent interfaces. This article discusses metal/nitride, nitride/nitride, and nitride/boride nanolayers that exhibit good high-temperature stability and hardness values that are maintained (or even increase) after high-temperature annealing. Epitaxial stabilization of nonequilibrium structuresin thin layers is a well-known phenomenon that has been applied to hard nitride materials. In particular, AlN, which crystallizes in the hexagonal wurtzite structure in bulk form, was stabilized in the rock-salt cubic structure in nitride/nitride nanolayers (e.g., AlN/TiN). These results and the current understanding of epitaxial stabilization in hard nanolayers are discussed.

The present study is focussed on the oxidation behavior of nonoxide silicon-based ceramics. Various Si3N4 and SiC ceramics were examined after long term oxidation tests (up to 5000 h) at 1500°C in ambient air. The damage mechanisms were discussed on the basis of a comprehensive chemical and microstructural analysis of the materials after the oxidation tests. The diffusion of oxygen into the material and its further reaction in the bulk of the material were found to be the most critical factors during long term oxidation treatment at elevated temperatures. However, the resulting damage in the microstructure of the materials can be significantly reduced by purposeful microstructural engineering. Using Si3N4/SiC and Si3N4/MoSi2 composite materials provides the possibility to improve the high temperature stability. [S0742-4795(00)00301-X]

A SAW resonator with high temperature stability is investigated from the viewpoint of piezoelectric material, cut type and fabrication process. A nano-wire bundle based SAW gas sensor with big specific-surface-area is proposed.

The high-temperature stability of disk lubricants has attracted a lot of interest in recent years because smaller head-media spacing may cause head-media contact and thus a local temperature rise. At elevated temperatures, the lubricant may either evaporate or decompose, leading to the eventual failure of the head-media interface. The decomposition might result from heating and/or may be catalyzed by the presence of a Lewis acid site at the head-disk interface (HDI). In this paper, we study how the chemical structure, namely, molecular weight (MW) and end-groups (see Fig. 1), of disk lubricants will affect the thermal and Lewis-acid catalyzed decomposition of the lubricant.
