To synthesize Al composite with high strength at elevated temperature, high modulus and thermal stability, ZrB2, Al3BC and Al2O3 particles have been chosen as reinforcements simultaneously. A (9.2 wt.% ZrB2 + 5.6 wt.% Al3BC + 5.5 wt.% Al2O3)/Al composite has been prepared, and the in-situ synthesized particles are nano-sized. Mechanical property tests reveal that the nanoparticles exhibit a remarkable synergistic enhancement effect. The elasticity modulus of the composite is 89 GPa, and the ultimate tensile strengths at 25 °C and 350 °C can be as high as 371 MPa and 154 MPa, respectively.

As the strength of structural steels is increasing, the performance of fire resistance should be evaluated clearly and suggested. While their application has been expanded, the evaluation of the fire resistance is inclined to adopt that derived from ordinary strength steels. In order to compare the fire resistance performance of high strength structural steels at high temperature, databases such as mechanical and thermal properties at elevated temperature were compared with those of Eurocode 3. After comparison, it is recommended that the passive protective material is more needed than those for the ordinary strength structural steels to meet the fire resistance requirement.

Using a Ti–Cu–Ni–Sn–Ta alloy as an example, we demonstrate a strategy for the in situ formation of nanocomposite microstructures that can lead to simultaneous high strength and ductility. Our approach employs copper mold casting for the production of bulk alloys from the melt, and the solidification microstructure is designed to be composed of micrometer-sized ductile dendrites uniformly distributed inside a matrix of nanoscale eutectic reaction products. The nanostructured matrix is achieved at a relatively deep eutectic, which facilitates the formation of an ultrafine eutectic microstructure over a range of cooling rates. The multi-component recipe stabilizes a ductile solid solution as the toughening phase and helps to reduce the eutectic spacing down to nanoscale. The multi-phase microstructure (including phase distributions, morphologies, and interfaces) has been examined in detail using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution TEM. The metastable eutectic reaction and the nanoscale spacing achieved are explained using thermodynamic and solidification modeling. The benefits expected from the microstructure design are illustrated using the high strength and large plasticity observed in mechanical property tests. Our nanocomposite design strategy is expected to be applicable to many alloy systems and constitutes another example of tailoring the microstructure on nanoscale for extraordinary properties.

Partially-stabilized ZrO2 (PSZ) ceramics have considerable potential for advanced structural applications because of their high strength and toughness. These properties derive from small tetragonal ZrO2 (t-ZrO2) precipitates in a cubic (c) ZrO2 matrix, which transform martensitically to monoclinic (m) symmetry under applied stresses. The kinetics of the martensitic transformation is believed to be nucleation controlled and the nucleation is always stress induced. In situ observation of the martensitic transformation using transmission electron microscopy provides considerable information about the nucleation and growth aspects of the transformation.
