Enforced solid solution type Sn-Zn alloy films were electrochemically synthesized on Cu substrate from an aqueous solution containing citric acid complexes. The electrodeposition behavior of Sn-Zn alloys was classified to a normal co-deposition type, in which electrochemically nobler Sn deposits preferentially compared to Zn. Electrodeposited Sn-Zn alloy films were composed of a non-equilibrium phase, like an enforced solid solution, which was not observed in an equilibrium phase diagram of an Sn-Zn binary alloy system. By applying a thermal annealing process at 150 °C for 10 minutes, a pure Zn phase was precipitated from an electrodeposited Sn-based solid solution phase with excessively dissolved Zn atoms. During the soldering process, intermetallic phases such as Cu3Sn and Cu5Zn8 were formed at the interface between an Sn-Zn alloy and Cu substrate. Tensile strength and fracture elongation of solder-jointed Cu rods with Sn-8 at.%Zn alloy films reached ca. 40 MPa and 12%, respectively.

Intermetallic formation at 425°C in the aluminum–copper system has been studied by scanning electron microscopy using welded diffusion couples. Several Al–Cu phases predicted by the equilibrium phase diagram of the elements and voids taking place in the diffusion zone have been detected in the couples. The predominant phases were found to be Al 2 Cu 3 and the solid solution of Al in Cu, α. The growth of the intermetallic layer obeyed the parabolic law.

Intermediate Phases

The study of diffusion processes in the aluminum - copper system was carried out at the temperature 350 and 520 °C. Special attention was paid on the chemical composition of the system near Al/Cu interface. It was determined that the intermediate phases in the system, corresponding to the equilibrium phase diagram, were not formed at low temperature. At high temperature the intermediate phases forms starting with Cu - rich phases. In both cases supersaturated solid solution of copper in aluminum could be observed near the interface.

Small Magnetic Field

In magnetoelectric sensors for the detection of weak magnetic fields, the magnetostrictivecomponent is required to show a high strain at small magnetic field changes. Co-Fe alloys, amongrare earth free materials, have one of the largest saturation magnetostriction and are magnetically softat the same time. In this study, Co-Fe alloy films with 66 at.-% Co are prepared by magnetron sputterdeposition of Co/Fe-multilayers which differ in their individual layer structure and in a subsequentrapid thermal annealing process. The influence of the initial bilayer period and the annealing temperatureon the phase formation and film structure are investigated. X-ray diffraction revealed a higherfraction of the desired face-centered cubic solid solution for thicker individual layers after the 800 °Cannealing. The change of the electrical in-plane resistivity reaches a minimum around 500 °C and iscorrelating well with the observed grain growth and solid solution phase formation. The investigationof magnetic properties with vibrating sample magnetometry shows coercive fields of 3.2 kA/m and2.2 kA/m for fully alloyed films with initial bilayer periods of 25 nm and 250 nm, respectively.

Including detailed information of equilibrium phase diagrams (EPhD) is is one of the necessary features in phase transformation simulations. It is important for a simulation to provide a simple but accurate EPhD calculation method which is based on the knowledge of the phase boundary lines in the EPhDs as an mathematical function. A simple, fast and iteration free approximate calculation method has been developed earlier (ESTPHAD – Estimated Phase Diagrams). The input data may be either experimental values, or a data field calculated by CALPHAD, or digitized data from the graphical representation of measured and published EPhDs . By this method important parameters such as the beginning and ending temperatures of solidification or solid state transformations can be determined for each phase. The partition ratios as a function of the concentration can be calculated as well. In this study ESTPHAD is used to estimate the EPhD of binary Fe-Ni system.

First of all, the as-cast microstructures of Mo-rich Mo-Si-B ternary alloys were investigated around the triple junction point of the primary Mo solid solution, Mo5SiB2 and Mo2B in this work, based on the liquidus projections of the Mo-Si-B system which have been reported in earlier studies. Subsequently, their microstructural evolution through heat treatment was investigated. Since Mo2B crystallizes out during solidification into a primary or secondary phase even though the alloy composition lies in the triangle of Mo-Mo5SiB2-Mo3Si in the Mo-Si-B equilibrium phase diagram, the as-cast microstructures include the non-equilibrated Mo2B in wide compositional ranges. However, Mo2B was completely decomposed during heat treatment at 1800 °C for 24 h and this contributed to the development of homogeneous, fine microstructures. On the other hand, since Mo2B was not decomposed perfectly during 24 h of 1600 °C heat treatment, as-cast microstructures largely remained. Therefore, it is realized that the heat treatment at 1800 °C is necessary to obtain well-developed microstructures of Mo-Si-B alloys.

ABSTRACTThe ability to predict ready glass formation (RGF) in binary alloy systems upon rapid cooling of the melt is of value both theoretically and practically. Two-dimensional maps show promise as a means of associating RGF with two system parameters which must have a combination of favorable values. In this paper, two types of glass formation diagrams are reviewed. One of these, the ΔH-r/R plot, is based on fundamental parameters which can, in principle, be derived from elemental quantities for each binary alloy system. The second type of diagram, the temperature-composition map, uses two equilibrium phase diagram features, namely reduced liquidus temperatures and reduced eutectic compositions to predict RGF. Both approaches are compared for binary alloys of Zr. The temperature-composition plot approach can be extended to predict qualitatively the RGF composition range of a given alloy system.

Resolution Study

Under normal circumstances, Pt dissolves only a very small amount of interstitial carbon in solid solution. Even so, an appropriate quench/age treatment leads to the formation of stable Pt2C {100} plate precipitates. Excess (quenched-in) vacancies play a critical role in the process by accommodating the volume and structural changes that accompany the transformation. This alloy system exhibits other interesting properties. Due to a large vacancy/carbon atom binding energy, Pt can absorb excess carbon at high temperatures in a carburizing atmosphere. In regions rich in carbon and vacancies, another carbide phase, Pt7C which undergoes an order-disorder reaction was formed. The present study of Pt carburized at 1160°C and aged at 515°C shows that other carbides in the PtxC series can be produced.

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.

Palladium Copper Alloys

Strength, hardness, and ductility characteristics were determined for a series of palladium-copper alloys that compositionally vary from 5 to 25 weight percent copper. Alloy specimens subjected to vacuum annealing showed clear evidence of solid solution strengthening. These specimens showed, as a function of increasing copper content, increased yield strength, ultimate strength, and Vickers microhardness, while their ductility was little affected by compositional differences. Annealed alloy specimens subsequently subjected to exposure to hydrogen at 323 K and PH2 = 1 atm showed evidence of hydrogen embrittlement up to a composition of ~15 wt. % Cu. The magnitude of the hydrogen embrittlement decreased with increasing copper content in the alloy.
