Thin-walled Inconel 625 sheet metal was sectioned into tensile specimens, plastically strained, and then heat treated. Specimens were pulled to a targeted strain, unloaded, and then subjected to one of two heat treatments with the goal of restoring the full ductility and total plastic strain capability of the material. Post-heat treatment tensile testing was performed at room temperature to evaluate the heat treatment efficacy and then followed by hardness and microstructural analysis. The results showed the amount of material recovery was affected by the initial amount of plastic strain imparted to the tensile specimen before heat treatment. Although recrystallization was not observed, grains did elongate in the load direction, and the Kernel average misorientation (KAM) increased with heat treatment. Furthermore, specimens prestrained to 40% and heat treated at 980 °C successfully recovered 88% of pre-heat treatment strain capability prior to fracturing.

Crystallographic Orientations

The physical, mechanical properties and formability of sheet metal depend on preferred crystallographic orientations (texture). In this research work, we investigated texture development and formability of AA 3003 aluminum alloy sheets after asymmetry rolling and subsequent heat treatment. After asymmetry rolling, the specimens showed fine grain size. We also investigated the change of the plastic strain ratios after asymmetry rolling and subsequent heat-treating condition. The plastic strain ratios of asymmetrically rolled and subsequent heat treated samples are 1.5 times higher than the initial AA 3003 Al alloy sheets. These could be attributed to the formation of ND//<111> texture component through asymmetry rolling in Al sheet.

AbstractCMSX 4 and Inconel 625 superalloys were coated by platinum layers (3 and 7 μm thick) in the electroplating process. The heat treatment of platinum layers (at 1,050 ˚C for 2 h) was performed to increase platinum adherence to the superalloys substrate. The diffusion zone obtained on CMSX 4 superalloy (3 and 7 μm platinum thick before heat treatment) consisted of two phases: γ-Ni(Al, Cr) and (Al0.25Pt0.75)Ni3. The diffusion zone obtained on Inconel 625 superalloy (3 μm platinum thick before heat treatment) consisted of the α-Pt(Ni, Cr, Al) phase. Moreover, γ-Ni(Cr, Al) phase was identified. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed the presence of platinum in the diffusion zone of the heat-treated coating (7 μm platinum thick) on Inconel 625 superalloy. The surface roughness parameter Ra of heat-treated coatings increased with the increase of platinum layers thickness. This was due to the unequal mass flow of platinum and nickel.

Zinc alloy (ZA27) syntactic foams (SF) were manufactured using expanded perlite (EP) particles and counter-gravity infiltration casting. Due to a variation of the metallic matrix content, the density of the produced foam samples varied from 1.78 to 2.03 g·cm−3. As-cast and solution heat-treated samples were tested to investigate the compressive properties of the ZA27 syntactic foam. To this end, quasi-static compression tests were conducted. In addition, microstructural analysis of the as-cast and heat-treated syntactic foams was carried out using scanning electron microscopy. The results indicate that the heat treatment alters the microstructure of the ZA27 alloy matrix from a multiphase dendrite to a spheroidized microstructure with improved ductility. Moreover, the heat treatment considerably enhances the energy absorption and plateau stress ( σ pl ) of the syntactic foam. Optical analysis of the syntactic foams under compression shows that the dominant deformation mechanism of the as-cast foams is brittle fracture. In comparison, the heat-treated samples undergo a more ductile deformation.

This report describes investigations performed on as welded and post weld heat treated samples of AISI 8630 steel, buttered with Inconel 625 and Inconel 725. The investigations have focused on the properties and microstructure in the partial mixed zone between the buttering and the steel before and after post weld heat treatment. The samples were heat treated for 4 1/2 hours at 640°C, 665° and 690°C and investigated with respect to mechanical properties and microstructure near the fusion line. A range of testing and analyses were performed including notch impact toughness testing, identification of fracture initiation and propagation in impact specimens, hydrogen measurements, examination of the micro structure in steel and Inconel using light microscope, hardness testing and electron micro-probe analysis of the alloying elements across the fusion line. Additional investigations in TEM on samples from an actual joint, post weld heat treated at 665°C were also performed. The results show that post weld heat treatment at 665°C and 690°C reduced the impact toughness in coarse grained heat affected zone, caused by decarburisation, ferrite formation and grain growth. The partially mixed zone (5–10μm) of the Inconel buttering, gained partly extremely high hardness caused by carbon enrichment, reaustenitization and formation of virgin martensite. As welded samples gave more favorable properties and microstructure than the post weld heat treated ones.

Heat treatment processing is commonly applied for additively manufactured metal materials, since the as-fabricated material frequently exhibits high internal stress and self-cracking. In this work, a heat treatment route was applied to an additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V alloy, and its effect on the dynamic compressive behavior was investigated. The experimental results showed that the heat treatment process not only increased the dynamic compressive strength of the material, but also induced a change of the dynamic compressive strength from isotropic to anisotropic. In addition, the strain rate sensitivity of the material was reduced by heat treatment, even though both the as-deposited and heat-treated samples demonstrated positive sensitivity to the loading rate. Microstructural analysis suggested that the grain size and morphology were the same before and after heat treatment, while the internal stress increased due to heat treatment.

Aisi 52100

A metal matrix composite was developed through a unique liquid pressing infiltration process to study the wear mechanism of a TiC reinforced AISI 1020 steel matrix. The microstructure, hardness, and wear behaviors of the TiC/AISI 1020 composite were compared with commercial AISI 52100 bearing steel. Microstructural analysis showed that there were no defects, such as pores or agglomeration of reinforcement particles, and about 60% of the volume of TiC was uniformly dispersed. In the case of the AISI 52100 alloy, the hardness was 62.42 HRC, which was similar to the 62.84 HRC value of the as-cast TiC/AISI 1020 composite. After the quenching heat treatment, the Rockwell hardness of the composite increased to 76.64 HRC, which was attributed to the martensitic transformation of the AISI 1020 matrix. As a result of the pin-on-disc wear test with high contact pressure, the wear width of AISI 52100 was 2937 μm, which was approximately 4.3 times wider than that of the heat-treated metal matrix composite (682 μm). The wear depths of AISI 52100 and the heat-treated composite were 2.6 μm and 0.5 μm, respectively, indicating that TiC/AISI 1020 exhibited excellent wear resistance compared with bearing steel. Improved wear resistance of the TiC/AISI 1020 composite originates from uniformly distributed TiC, with an increase in the hardness due to the heat treatment.

A study was carried out to determine the role of additives such as Mg and Cu on the microstructural characteristics of grain refined, Sr-modified eutectic A413.1 alloy (Al-11.7% Si) during solution heat treatment. For comparison purposes, some of the alloys were also studied in the non-modified condition. The alloys were cast in a steel permanent mold preheated at 425 °C that provided a microstructure with an average dendrite arm spacing (DAS) of ~ 22 µm. Castings were solution heat treated at 500 ± 2 °C for time up 24 h, followed by quenching in warm water (at 60 °C). Microstructural analysis of the as-cast and heat-treated castings was carried out using optical microscopy in conjunction with image analysis. Phase identifications were done using the electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) technique. In the as-cast condition, the addition of 0.42 wt% Mg to the unmodified alloy produced relatively large Si particles compared to the base A413.1 alloy. The Si particle size remained more or less the same with increase in solution treatment time and Mg level. Both Mg2Si and Al2Cu phases were observed to dissolve almost completely after 8 h solution time, while the Al5Cu2Mg8Si6 phase was found to persist even after 24 h.
