Functional Graded Material

In view of the aging population and various diseases worldwide, the demand for implants has been rapidly increasing. Despite the efforts of doctors, engineers, and medical companies, the fabrication of and procedures associated with implants have not yet been perfected. Therefore, a high percentage of premature implantations has been observed. The main problem with metal implants is the mechanical mismatch between human bone and the implant material. Zirconium/titanium-based materials with graded porosity and composition were prepared by powder metallurgy. The whole samples are comprised of three zones, with a radial gradient in the phase composition, microstructure, and pore structure. The samples were prepared by a three-step powder metallurgy method. The microstructure and properties were observed to change gradually with the distance from the center of the sample. The x-ray diffraction analysis and microstructure observation confirmed the formation of diffusive connections between the particular areas. Additionally, the mechanical properties of the obtained materials were checked, with respect to the distance from the center of the sample. An analysis of the corrosion properties of the obtained materials was also carried out.

The toxicity in the Sn-Pb solder has promoted the development of Pb-free solder in the electronics industries. Among the Pb-solders, the Sn-3.5Ag-1.0Cu solder is considered a potential replacement and being studied by many researchers. In the present study, the characteristics of Sn-3.5Ag-1.0Cu lead-free solder were studied. The raw materials were tin, silver and copper powders in micron size. The solder was prepared using powder metallurgy route which includes blending, compacting and sintering. Four blending times and two compacting pressures were used to investigate for optimum condition. The melting temperature of the samples were studied using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and the presence of Sn Ag, Cu were confirmed using x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Finally the effect of variables on the hardness of the solders is reported.

The Tungsten carbide (WC) based composites are good choice to replace the traditional conventional materials for obtaining high hardness and wear resistance. This work investigates the influence of cobalt content on the characterization of Tungsten carbide. The composite specimens are prepared by using powder metallurgy technique. The effect of cobalt material on the performance of Tungsten carbide hardness, fracture toughness is estimated by conducting suitable experiments. While performing experiments, a powder mixture of 89% WC, 11% of Co was manufactured with powder metallurgy, under appropriate milling conditions and Sintering temperature to ensure uniform microstructure. From the present work the optimum sintering temperature of Tungsten carbide mixed nano cobalt composite is identified. The crystalanity of the resulting materials is identified from a rapid analytical technique, X -ray Diffraction.

Promising Development

Much research on magnesium (Mg) emphasises creating good corrosion resistance of magnesium, due to its high reactivity in most environments. In this study, powder metallurgy (PM) technique is used to produce Mg samples with a variation of aluminium (Al) composition. The effect of aluminium composition on the microstructure development, including the phase analysis was characterised by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The mechanical property of Mg sample was performed through Vickers microhardness. The results showed that the addition of aluminium in the synthesised Mg sample formed distribution of Al-rich phases of Mg17Al12, with 50 wt.% of aluminium content in the Mg sample exhibited larger fraction and distribution of Al-rich phases as compared to the 20 wt.% and 10 wt.% of aluminium content. The microhardness values were also increased at 20 wt.% and 50 wt.% of aluminium content, comparable to the standard microhardness value of the annealed Mg. A similar trend in corrosion resistance of the Mg immersed in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution was observed. The corrosion behaviour was evaluated based on potentiodynamic polarisation behaviour. The corrosion current density, icorr, is observed to decrease with the increase of Al composition in the Mg sample, corresponding to the increase in corrosion resistance due to the formation of aluminium oxide layer on the Al-rich surface that acted as the corrosion barrier. Overall, the inclusion of aluminium in this study demonstrates the promising development of high corrosion resistant Mg alloys.

Abstract In this study, powder metallurgy was applied in a furnace atmosphere to form titanium boride layers on a commercially pure Ti surface. Experiments were carried out using the solid-state boriding method at 900 °C and 1000°C for 12 h and 24 h. Samples were produced by pressing the commercially pure Ti powders under 870 MPa. The sintering process required by the powder metallurgy method was carried out simultaneously with the boriding process. Thus, the sintering and boriding were performed in one stage. The formation of the boride layer was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, optical-light microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and elemental dispersion spectrometry analyses. In addition, microhardness measurements were performed to examine the effect of the boriding process on hardness. The Vickers microhardness of the boronized surface reached 1773 HV, which was much higher than the 150 HV hardness of the commercially pure Ti substrate. The X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the boriding process had enabled the formation of TiB and TiB2 on the powder metallurgy Ti substrate surface. Consequently, the production of Ti via powder metallurgy is a potentially cost-effective alternative to the conventional method, and the boriding process supplies TiB and TiB2 that provide super-high hardness and excellent wear and corrosion resistance.

Microstructural Characteristics

The present study investigated the effects of alloying and nano-reinforcement on the mechanical properties (microhardness, tensile strength, and compressive strength) of Mg-based alloys and composites. Pure Mg, Mg-3Sn alloy, and Mg-3Sn + 0.2 GNP alloy-nanocomposite were synthesized by powder metallurgy followed by hot extrusion. The microstructural characteristics of the bulk extruded samples were explored using X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and optical microscopy and their mechanical properties were compared. The microhardness, tensile strength, and compressive strength of the Mg-3Sn alloy improved when compared to those of monolithic Mg sample and further improvements were displayed by Mg-3Sn + 0.2 GNP alloy-nanocomposite. No significant change in the compressive strain to failure was observed in both the alloy and the alloy-nanocomposite with respect to that of the pure Mg sample. However, an enhanced tensile strain to failure was displayed by both the alloy and the alloy-nanocomposite.

Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) test were utilized to detect the phase transformation of a HA/Ti Functionally Graded Material (FGM) prepared via Powder Metallurgy (PM) technique. The effects of oxygen (O2), nitrogen (N2), forming (N2+H2) and Argon (Ar) sintering atmospheres on the FGM specimens were examined by considering the gas flowing duration. It was found that the original metallurgical profile of pure Ti in HA/Ti FGM sintered under N2 atmosphere was almost preserved. However the carburization of the pure Ti was observed on the specimen. Medium alkyl halides (C-Br) and alkenes (-C=C-) stretches were detected, producing the dominant elements in the pure Ti layer of the specimen. The almost stable constituent element remains in the specimen sintered under flowing N2+H2 atmosphere as detected by XRD result. This proved the significance of controlling the sintering atmosphere during the entire sintering process. The results achieved reveal the high tendency of Ti and HA elements to react with the sintering environment, thus very precise furnace with controllable atmosphere is crucial for the fabrication of the HA/Ti FGM.
