Iron Coatings

Monolithic and multilayered iron electrodeposits were successfully synthesized by the pulse plating electrodeposition method. Electron microscopy and Vickers microhardness measurements were used to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of the iron electrodeposits produced. Two types of monolithic iron coatings were produced, one with a coarse grained, columnar structure and the other with an ultra-fine grained structure. Hall-Petch type grain size strengthening was observed in these monolithic coatings. Multilayered iron coatings composed of alternating layers of coarse grained and fine grained structures were also produced. The hardness value of the multilayered coatings falls between the hardness values for the two types of monolithic coatings produced. This study has demonstrated the possibility of applying a multilayered structure design to tailor the microstructure and mechanical properties of electrodeposited iron coatings.

Co-Cr-Mo alloy powders were subjected to controlled mechanical milling at room temperature under Ar atmosphere to fabricate bimodal microstructure in the MM powders, having nanosized grains in the surface region and micron-sized coarse grains in the center of the milled powders. Subsequently, the MM powder was compacted by spark-plasma sintering (SPS) process. The sintered compacts indicated two structure areas: (i) ultra-fine grained (UFG) regions, called shell, and (ii) the coarse grained regions called core. The shell and the core correspond to the surface and center of the MM powders, respectively. The shell regions established a continuous three dimensional network of high strength ultra-fine grained regions, which surrounded the discrete coarse grained ductile regions. Such a microstructure is referred as Harmonic Structure. The sintered Co-Cr-Mo alloy compacts exhibited outstanding mechanical properties. The yield strength increased from 605 to 635 MPa, and ultimate tensile strength increased from 1201 to 1283 MPa. Moreover, the elongation was maintained more or less same as that of coarse grained compacts. Therefore, the harmonic structure design leads to the new generation microstructure of Co-Cr-Mo alloy, which demonstrates outstanding mechanical properties, i.e. superior strength and excellent ductility as compared to conventional materials. Keywords: mechanical milling, Co-Cr-Mo alloys, mechanical properties, harmonic structure.

Abstract This work is devoted to the study of the effect of the duration of ion nitriding by glow discharge on the physical and mechanical properties of tool steel with different initial structure. We used specimens of R6M5 tool steel with a coarse-grained structure obtained after annealing at a temperature of 850°C and with a fine-grained structure obtained after severe plastic deformation by torsion discharge. With an increase in the duration of ion nitriding, the thickness of the hardened layer and wear resistance increase. The combination of plastic deformation with ion nitriding by glow discharge increases the adsorption and diffusion rate of the saturating element due to the creation of a highly fragmented and disoriented fine-grained structure and contributed to reduction in processing time.

Bainitic Structure

The paper presents the results of the effect of boron, manganese and sulfur on the microstructure and mechanical properties of pipe steel 17G1SU. It was shown that the microstructure of boron-free steel sample containing 1.4% Mn and 0.01% S consists mainly of ferrite and a small amount of perlite. Samples microalloyed by boron are represented by a dispersed ferritic-bainitic structure. A decrease in ferrite grain size from 8.7 μm, in a comparative sample without boron containing 1.4% Mn and 0.010% S to 5.8 μm in a sample of steel containing 0.006% B, 1.6% Mn and 0.011% S, shows increasing the dispersity of the ferritic-bainitic structure. A decrease in the manganese content to 1.4, sulfur to 0.004% and an increase in boron concentration to 0.0011%, despite an increase in grain size to 6.8 μm, retain a fine-grained structure. The effect of boron, manganese, and sulfur content on the microhardness of the structural phases of the studied pipe steel samples is noted. The smallest microhardness of ferrite and perlite is observed in the base sample without boron, reaching 180 and 214 HV10, respectively. The microalloying of pipe steel containing 1.6% Mn, 0.011% S with boron is accompanied by an increase in the microhardness of the bainitic phase to 314 HV10, which increases to 400 HV10 with an increase in boron concentration to 0.011%, and a decrease in the content of manganese and sulfur to 1.4 and 0.003%. In this case, the microhardness of the ferrite phase, reaching an increase to 260 HV10, is practically independent of the content of boron, manganese, and sulfur. The mechanical properties of the experimental metal rolling with a thickness of 10 mm provide the production of rolled steel of strength class X80, without heat treatment, regardless of the content of boron, manganese, and sulfur, as a result of the formation of a finely dispersed ferrite-bainitic structure.

This study focuses on improving the mechanical properties of Co-Cr-W alloys by applying Harmonic Structure Design – bimodal grain size distribution with an interconnected framework of ultra-fine-grained (UFG) regions, called the “shell region”, surrounding isolated coarse-grained (CG) regions. Harmonic structure Co-Cr specimens were successfully fabricated by Powder Metallurgy (PM) that consisted of controlled mechanical milling and spark plasma sintering. The sintered compacts revealed an outstanding combination of strength and total elongation. Moreover, the sintering dwell time significantly improved densification and led to large total elongation. PM improved the mechanical properties of Co-Cr-W alloys and offered an attractive approach to fabricate harmonic structures for commercial applications.

Space And Time

Hydrocarbon gels contain a number of materials, such as rubber, greases, saponified mineral oils, etc., of great interest for various engineering purposes. Specific requirements in mechanical properties have been met by producing gels in appropriately chosen patterns of constituent components of visible, colloidal, molecular and atomic sizes, ranging from coarse-grained aggregates, represented by sponges, foams, emulsions, etc.; to fine-grained and apparently homogeneous ones, represented by optically clear compounds. The engineer who has to deal with the whole range of such materials will adopt a macroscopic point of view, based on an apparent continuity of all the material structures and of the distributions in space and time of the displacements and forces occurring under mechanical actions. It has been possible to determine these distributions in the framework of a comprehensive scheme in which the fundamental principles of the mechanics of continuous media provide the theoretical basis, and a testing instrument of new design, termed Rheogoniometer, the means of experimental measurement (Weissenberg 1931, 1934, 1946, 1947, 1948).

Net Shaping

This work investigates the effect of layer thickness on the microstructure and mechanical properties of M300 maraging steel produced by Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS®) technique. The microstructure was characterized using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mechanical properties were characterized by tensile tests and microhardness measurements. The porosity and mechanical properties were found to be highly dependent on the layer thickness. Increasing the layer thickness increased the porosity of the manufactured parts while degrading their mechanical properties. Moreover, etched samples revealed a fine cellular dendritic microstructure; decreasing the layer thickness caused the microstructure to become fine-grained. Tests showed that for samples manufactured with the chosen laser power, a layer thickness of more than 0.75 mm is too high to maintain the structural integrity of the deposited material.
