Research the kinetic mechanism of grain growth of recrystallization of Cu-20Ni-5Sn alloy. The research result shows that the recrystallization temperature declines with the increase of cold-deformation. The recrystallization temperature is at about 500°C ~650°C respectively for 50% and 60% total cold deformation, and is about 470°C ~620°C respectively for 70% and 85% total deformation. The grains grow up with the increase of annealing temperature and holding time. The mathematic model of average grain size can be described as that Cu-20Ni-5Sn alloy annealed at 620°C ~680°C holding 2~10hours.

This work gives results of influence of temperature and deformation degree on changes in the metal grain growth of drawn copper tubes, because this mutual dependence was observed. Copper tubes samples, chemical content of 99,97 % Cu and 0,024 % P, were exposed to recrystallized annealing after drawing. The annealing was carried out at temperatures of 573, 623, 673, 723, 773, 823 and 873 K, for 60 minutes, in laboratory conditions. Investigation results show that after drawing with high cold deformation degree (96 - 99 %), the annealing leads to the changes in the continuous grain growth with increased temperature. The smaller grain size appears at 823 K in comparison with the lower annealing temperature. Annealing has influence on mechanical characteristics of tested samples and during drawing of copper tubes these characteristics are adequately changed: with regard to the annealing at the 773 K, the characteristics of strength and plasticity increase as a result of decreased grain size. The increase of annealing temperature to 873 K leads to the increased grain size and decreased values of strength and plasticity characteristics.

The equimolar Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni alloy, first produced in 2004, was unexpectedly found to be single-phase. Consequently, a new concept of materials was developed: high entropy alloys (HEA) forming a single solid-solution with a near equiatomic composition of the constituting elements. In this study, an equimolar CoCrFeMnNi HEA was modified by the addition of 5 at% of either Al, Cu or Zr. The cold-rolled alloys were annealed for 30 minutes at high temperature to investigate the recrystallization kinetics. The evolution of the grain boundary and the grain size were investigated, from the as-cast to the recrystallized state. Results show that the recrystallized single phase FCC structures exhibits different twin grains density, grain size and recrystallization temperatures as a function of the at.% of modifier alloying elements added. In comparison to the equimolar CoCrFeMnNi, the addition of modifier elements increases significantly the recrystallization temperature after cold deformation. The sluggish diffusion (typical of HEA alloys), the presence of a solute in solid solution as well as the low twin boundary energy are responsible for the lower driving force for recrystallization.

AbstractIn this work, BiFeO3 powders were synthesized by a sol–gel method. The influence of annealing temperature on the structure and magnetic properties of the samples has been discussed. X-ray diffraction studies showed that the purest phase was formed in the temperature range of 400 °C to 550 °C and the samples annealed at a temperature below 550 °C were of nanocrystalline character. Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetization measurements were used as complementary methods to investigate the magnetic state of the samples. In particular, the appearance of weak ferromagnetic properties, significant growth of magnetization, and spin-glass-like behavior were observed along with the drop of average grain size. Mössbauer spectra were fitted by the model assuming cycloidal modulation of spins arrangement and properties of the spin cycloid were determined and analyzed. Most importantly, it was proved that the spin cycloid does not disappear even in the case of the samples with a particle size well below the cycloid modulation period λ = 62 nm. Furthermore, the cycloid becomes more anharmonic as the grain size decreases. The possible origination of weak ferromagnetism of the nanocrystalline samples has also been discussed.

High-pressure torsion (HPT) was conducted under 6.0 GPa on commercial purity titanium up to 10 turns. An ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure Ti with an average grain size of ~96 nm was obtained. The thermal properties of these samples were studied by using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) which allowed the quantitative determination of the evolution of stored energy, the recrystallization temperatures, the activation energy involved in the recrystallization of the material and the evolution of the recrystallized fraction with temperature. The results show that the stored energy increases, beyond which the stored energy seems to level off to a saturated value with increase of HPT up to 5 turns. An average activation energy of about 101 kJ/mol for the recrystallization of 5 turns samples was determined. Also, the thermal stability of the grains of the 5 turns samples with subsequent heat treatments were investigated by microstructural analysis and Vickers microhardness measurements. It is shown that the average grain size remains below 246 nm when the annealing temperature is below 500 °C, and the size of the grains increases significantly for samples at the annealing temperature of 600 °C.

The effect of WO3doping on microstructural and electrical properties of ZnO-Pr6O11based varistor materials was investigated. The doped WO3plays a role of inhibitor in ZnO grain growth, resulting in decreased average grain size from 2.68 to 1.68 μm with increasing doping level of WO3from 0 to 0.5 mol%. When the doping level of WO3was lower than 0.05 mol%, the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics of the obtained varistors could be improved significantly with increasing amount of WO3doped. But when the doping level of WO3became higher, their nonlinear current-voltage performance would be dramatically deteriorated when more WO3was doped. The optimum nonlinear coefficient, varistor voltage, and leakage current of the samples were about 13.71, 710 V/mm and 13 μA/cm2, respectively, when the doping level of WO3was in the range from 0.03 to 0.05 mol%.

Microstructure of Fe -based amorphous and nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloy has been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) and Doppler broadening positron annihilation technique (PAT). Doppler broadening measurement reveals that amorphous alloys (Finemet, Type I) which can form a nanocrystalline phase have more defects (free volume) than alloys (Metglas, Type II) which cannot form this microstructure. XRD and TEM characterization indicates that the nanocrystallization of amorphous Finemet alloy occurs at 460°C, where nanocrystallites of α- Fe with an average grain size of a few nanometers are formed in an amorphous matrix. With increasing annealing temperature up to 500°C, the average grain size increases up to around 12 nm. During the annealing of Finemet alloy, it has been demonstrated that positron annihilates in quenched-in defect, crystalline nanophase and amorphous-nanocrystalline interfaces. The change of line shape parameter S with annealing temperature in Finemet alloy is mainly due to the structural relaxation, the pre-nucleation of Cu nucleus and the nanocrystallization of α- Fe ( Si ) phase during annealing. This study throws new insights into positron behavior in the nanocrystallization of metallic glasses, especially in the presence of single or multiple nanophases embedded in the amorphous matrix.

Sheet blanks’ structure uniformity determines their ability to sheet stamping. Level of entropy may represent the characteristic of structural uniformity. Structural entropy was received from strain curves recalculation for sheet blanks from aluminium alloys Al-2Mg and Al-6Mg are presented in the work. Stain curves were provided for blanks after cold deformation and annealing at temperatures 250, 350 И 450˚C. Estimation of grain size uniformity was made. Effect of annealing temperature on structural entropy and grain structure uniformity was found. It was shown that annealing temperature increasing leads to structural entropy decreasing. Ununiformity of grain size achieves the minimal values after annealing at temperature 350˚C for both alloys, and then ununiformity grows after annealing at temperature 450˚C.

The effects of heat treatment on the microstructure evolution was studied in regards to austenite nucleation and grain growth. It was found that the austenite nucleation and matrix recrystallization kinetics of samples annealed at 675 °C for different times were revealed, implying a strong interaction between the ferrite matrix and austenite. The recrystallization of the matrix during annealing provided favorable conditions for austenite nucleation and growth, and the formation of austenite during this process reduced the matrix recrystallization kinetics, thus delaying the recrystallization process of the matrix around the austenite grains. The statistical results for the austenite grain size under different annealing temperatures indicated that the average grain size of the austenite slightly increases with increasing of the annealing temperature, but the austenite with the largest grain size grows faster at the same temperature. This difference is attributed to the strict Kurdjumov Sachs (KS) orientation relationship (OR) between the austenite grains and the matrix, because the growth of austenite with a strict KS OR with the matrix is often inhibited during annealing. In contrast, the austenite maintains a non-strict KS OR with the matrix and can grow preferentially with increasing annealing temperature and time.

Grain growth is inevitable in the sintering of pure nanopowder zinc oxide. Sintering depend on diffusion kinetics, thus this growth could be controlled by ultra-fast sintering techniques, as microwave sintering. The purpose of this work was to investigate the nanostructural evolution of zinc oxide nanopowder compacts (average grain size of 80 nm) subjected to ultra-rapid microwave sintering at a constant holding temperature of 900°C, applying different heating rates and temperature holding times. Fine dense microstructures were obtained, with controlled grain growth (grain size from 200 to 450nm at high heating rate) when compared to those obtained by conventional sintering (grain size around 1.13µm), which leads to excessively large average final grain sizes.
