Main Factors

Particulate composites prepared by sintering compacts of Al2O3 and TZP powders, in air at 1500 and 1600 oC have been characterized in terms of microstructure and mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of the composites appear to be controlled by three main factors: the grain size of major phase, type of intergranular TZP, and presence of residual stress.

Fine Grained Steels

The fine-grained rolling steels NFG600 and the conventional usual rolling steels SM490 were processed by sand paper polishing and mechanical grinding to compare the residual stress generated after processing. The average grain size of NFG600 and SM490 is 3 μm and 15μm respectively. Therefore improvement of mechanical properties for such fine-grained steels is expected, it is important to understand the residual stress state of new fine-grained materials with processing. In this study, multi axial stresses of two kinds of specimens after polishing and grinding were measured by three kinds of analysis methods including cos-ψ method. As a result, as for σ33, the stress of NFG was compression, though that of SM490 was tension.

Cyclic channel die compression (CCDC) of AZ31-1.7 wt.% Si alloy was performed up to 5 passes at 623 K in order to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of compressed alloys. The results show that multi-pass CCDC is very effective to refine the matrix grain and Mg2Si phases. After the alloy is processed for 5 passes, the mean grain size decreases from 300 μm of as-cast to 8 μm. Both dendritic and Chinese script type Mg2Si phases break into small polygonal pieces and distribute uniformly in the matrix. The tensile strength increases prominently from 118 MPa to 216 MPa, whereas the hardness of alloy deformed 5 passes only increase by 8.4% compared with as-cast state.

Texture Characterization

This study aims to investigate the effect of processing routes (A and Bc) and temperature on microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of pure magnesium was studied in this research. An extruded pure magnesium (~99,9 %) was subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by ECAP. Deformation was conducted at 523K and 473K and two different processing routes (A and Bc) were used to control the texture. The microstructure and texture characterization of the pressed materials were carried out. It was found that the microstructure displayed a bimodal grain structure after two passes and then became homogeneous after four passes following both routes A and Bc. The misorientation distribution was examined and the results revealed that the fraction of high angle grain boundaries (HAGB) was higher at temperature 473K. The texture was randomized following route Bc whereas it became strengthened in route A after four passes. According to the Hall-Petch (HP) relationship, the yield stress of polycrystalline metals increases with a decrease in grain size. In this study, a positive slope k was achieved in the strengthened texture while a negative one was obtained in the softened texture. The ductility of ECAP processed material was considerably improved (from 23% to 38%) without sacrificing the yield stress by route Bc at 423K.

Increasing Temperature

The effects of heating rate and annealing temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of cold rolled Al-Si, low C non-oriented electrical steels are investigated using SEM metallography and uniaxial tensile tests. The experimental results show that short term annealing at temperatures up to 850 °C result in microstructures consisting of recrystallized ferrite grains with sizes similar to those observed in industrial semi-processed strips subjected to long term batch annealing treatments. Within the temperature range investigated, the grain size increases and the 0.2% offset yield strength decreases with increasing temperature. It was observed that the rate of change of grain size with increasing temperature increases when annealing is performed at temperatures greater than Ac1 (~870 °C). This effect is attributed to Fe3C dissolution and rapid C segregation to austenite for annealing temperatures within the ferrite+austenite phase field. This leads to faster ferrite growth and formation of pearlite when the steel is finally cooled to room temperature. The presence of pearlite at room temperature decreases the ductility of samples annealed at T > Ac1.
