In recent years, many efforts have been devoted to the development of innovative Al-based casting alloys with improved high temperature strength. Research is often oriented to the investigation of the effects of minor element additions to widely diffused casting alloys. The present study focuses on Al-7Si-0.4Mg (A356) alloy with small additions of Er and Zr. Following previous scientific works on the optimization of heat treatment and on tensile strength, creep tests were carried out at 300 °C under applied stress of 30 MPa, a reference condition for creep characterization of innovative high-temperature Al alloys. The alloys containing both Er and Zr displayed a lower minimum creep strain rate and a longer time to rupture. Fractographic and microstructural analyses on crept and aged specimens were performed to understand the role played by eutectic silicon, by the coarse intermetallics and by α-Al matrix ductility. The creep behavior in tension of the three alloys has been discussed by comparing them to tension and compression creep curves available in the literature for Al-7Si-0.4Mg improved by minor elemental additions.

New apparatus suitable for compression creep tests of slender specimens is described. The apparatus is designed to prevent buckling and to introduce a minimum of friction. Results are reported for tension and compression creep of polyethylene and annealed, unplasticized polyvinyl chloride copolymer at 75 deg F and 50 per cent relative humidity. The stress σ, strain ε, time t data from these tests were found to be describable with reasonable accuracy by the equation ε=ε0′sinhσ/σε+m′tnsinhσ/σm where ε0′, m′, n, σε, and σm are material constants. The results for polyethylene show that the creep in tension and compression were virtually the same. However, the creep in tension was similar but larger than in compression for polyvinyl chloride. These observations are interpreted in terms of the material structure and the influence of the normal stress on active shear planes.

The mechanical properties of nickel beryllide, NiBe, have been investigated in the temperature range 20–820 °C. The room temperature properties were studied using tension, bending, and compression tests, while the elevated temperature properties were characterized in compression only. NiBe exhibits some ductility at room temperature; the strains to failure in tension and compression are 1.3% and 13%, respectively. Fracture is controlled primarily by the cohesive strength of grain boundaries. At high temperatures, NiBe is readily deformable—strains in excess of 30% can be achieved at temperatures as low as 400 °C. Strain hardening rates are high, and the flow stress decreases monotonically with temperature. The high temperature strength of NiBe is as good or better than that of NiAl, but not quite as good as CoAl.

The development of creep resistant high pressure die casting (HPDC) alloys is one of the main focuses in magnesium research. Alloying elements like rare earths, calcium, strontium or scandium added to the necessary aluminium for die casting have already been introduced. Newly developed barium containing magnesium alloys with three levels of alloying additions were processed via HPDC and their compression creep response at 200 °C was evaluated. DieMag633 (Mg-6Al-3Ba-3Ca) displays the best creep resistance followed by DieMag422 (Mg-4Al-2Ba-2Ca) and then DieMag211 (Mg-2Al-1Ba-1Ca). Stress exponents from tests at different applied stresses were calculated. The creep tests were also accompanied by microstructural investigations and mechanical property evaluation.

Silicon nitride ( Si 3 N 4) has attracted substantial interest because of its extreme chemical and physical properties, but the sintering densification of Si 3 N 4 is difficult, and it is easily oxidized in the high-temperature air to impact high-temperature strength, which restricts its applied range. In order to decrease the oxidization and improve the strength of Si 3 N 4 at high temperature, the surface of Si 3 N 4 is coated with Al ( OH )3 and Y ( OH )3 to synthesis Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite particles. Through TEM, XRD, and BET analysis, when pH is about 9, Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite particles are successfully synthesized by co-precipitation methods. Coating layer is about 200 nm, which is compaction and conformability. Dispersion of coated Si 3 N 4 with Al ( OH )3 and Y ( OH )3 particles are very good. Synthesis of Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite powder will lay the foundation for preparing high-performance YAG/Si 3 N 4 multiphase ceramic materials.

The perfection of GaAs single crystals can be controlled by doping the GaAs with In, at a level of about 5x1019-1x1020/cm3, in single crystals grown by the LEC process. It has been observed that In doping at this level reduces the grown in dislocation density from 104-l05 to ≤ 102/cm2 and results in a large increase in high temperature strength . However, the role of In in dislocation density reduction is not clearly understood. Therefore, a systematic study has been performed with the help of high temperature deformation of In-doped and undoped GaAs single crystals followed by dislocation structural characterization by transmission electron microscopy of the deformed specimens. Here, some results of dislocation studies performed by TEM are descri bed.Samples were examined in a JEOL JEM 200CX transmission electron microscope equipped with a double tilt goniometer stage. The standard g.b criterion was employed for characterization of dislocations. Dark-field weak beam pictures were taken for characterization of partial dislocations and dipoles.

Refractory materials are subjected to thermomechanical loads during their working life, and consequent creep strain and stress relaxation are often observed. In this work, the asymmetric high temperature primary and secondary creep behavior of a material used in the working lining of steel ladles is characterized, using uniaxial tension and compression creep tests and an inverse identification procedure to calculate the parameters of a Norton-Bailey based law. The experimental creep curves are presented, as well as the curves resulting from the identified parameters, and a statistical analysis is made to evaluate the confidence of the results.
