In order to figure out whether Gallium works in the superalloy K444, its composition had been modified by adding about 0.003 wt.% and 0.01 wt.% Ga, respectively. Mechanical properties of the modified superalloy K444 were investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) after standard heat treatment. Gallium had no significant effect on the tensile strength at room temperature and 900 °C. Gallium had a little effect on the tensile plasticity at room temperature and 900 °C. The plasticity is better in the modified K444 alloy containing 0.003wt. % Ga, however, the plasticity became worse in the alloy containing 0.01wt. % Ga. As for plasticity, the optimum Gallium content should be 0.003 wt. % for the superalloy K444.

Microstructures and mechanical properties of melt spinning spandex were studied in this article.Cross section and longitudinal surface were observed and analyzed by JSM-5610LV scanning electron microscopy. Q2000 DSC differential scanning calorimeter was used to test the glass transition temperature and melting temperature which indicated glass transition temperature is about 44°C and melting temperature is about 200°C. We employed JSM-5610LV scanning electron microscopy to observe adhesion of melt spinning spandex with nylon filament after different time and temperature processing. It concluded that after 150°C90s、160°C60s、160°C90s、170°C30s heat treatment, the adhesive of melt spinning spandex with nylon is good. At the same time,tensile strength and elastic properties of melt spinning spandex which was processed under different time and temperature were tested, tensile strength and elastic recovery of melt spinning spandex after160°C 90s heat treatment is the best.

Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb-Y alloy pancake were produced by hot-pack forging. The microstructure of as-forged Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb-Y alloy were investigated by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, showing that the forged alloy was composed of fine γ grains and retain cast lamella colonies surrounded by elongated B2 phase. Tensile properties of the material showed that yield strength (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) were decreased from 500MPa and 612MPa at room temperature to 420 MPa and 462 MPa at 800°C, respectively. With the temperature increasing to 900°C, elongation reached 120%.

In order to figure out whether Gallium works in the superalloy K444, its composition was modified by adding about 0.003 wt.% and 0.01 wt.% Ga, respectively. Microstructure of the modified superalloy K444 after standard heat treatment was investigated by using optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The primary dendritic distance of these alloys had no significant changes with the increasing of Ga content, and there were no significant changes for the grain size of the three alloys. The content of eutectic was most in the alloy containing 0.01wt.% Ga, and the morphology of eutectic was most irregular. The segregation of other elements was effected by Ga and the elements of Cr and Zr were segregated seriously in the alloy containing 0.01wt.% Ga.

Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the most suitable materials for 3D printing. Blending with nanoparticles improves some of its properties, broadening its application possibilities. The article presents a study of composite PLA matrix filaments with added unmodified and lignin/polymerised lignin surface-modified nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC). The influence of untreated and surface-modified NFC on morphological, mechanical, technological, infrared spectroscopic, and dynamic mechanical properties was evaluated for different groups of samples. As determined by the stereo and scanning electron microscopy, the unmodified and surface-modified NFCs with lignin and polymerised lignin were present in the form of plate-shaped agglomerates. The addition of NFC slightly reduced the filaments’ tensile strength, stretchability, and ability to absorb energy, while in contrast, the initial modulus slightly improved. By adding NFC to the PLA matrix, the bending storage modulus (E’) decreased slightly at lower temperatures, especially in the PLA samples with 3 wt% and 5 wt% NFC. When NFC was modified with lignin and polymerised lignin, an increase in E’ was noticed, especially in the glassy state.

The influence of the mechanical properties of X70 pipeline steel under different annealing temperature was studied. The corresponding microstructure was investigated by the Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy. The results showed that the yield strength and the tensile strength both experienced from rise to decline with the increase of annealing temperature. The grain sizes were coarse and a large amount of cementite precipitated due to preserving temperature above 550 °, which induced matrix fragmentation and deteriorate the -10 ° DWTT Toughness. There were little changes on the microstructure and mechanical properties when the annealing temperature was under 500 °.

In this work, CaCO3 nanoparticles have been synthesized via heat-treatment of a new precursor. Effect of calcinations temperature on particle size has been investigated. The products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). nanoCaCO3 was modified using chloroform as solvent and fatty acid as modifier atroom temperature. The advantage of this modification is that it can be proceed at room temperature and it can reduce energy consumption.

The geometry and mechanical properties of solid and hollow carbon fibres were investigated by light-and scanning electron microscopy, and by single fibre tensile tests. The hollowness factor of fibres was determined by their external and internal diameter. The tensile strength was determined by single fibre tensile break tests. It was shown that the bigger the diameter of the fibres the lower the mechanical properties is. It was found that the hollow carbon fibres are suitable for preparation of a self-repairing composite with the advantage over other solutions because of their geometrical and mechanical properties.

The mechanical properties of cellulose nanofiber-reinforced polyvinyl alcohol composite were studied. Neat polyvinyl alcohol films, cellulose nanofiber sheets, and their nanocomposites containing cellulose nanofiber weight ratios of 5, 15, 30, 40, 45, 50 and 80 wt% were fabricated. Heat treatment by hot pressing at 180℃ was conducted on the specimens to study its effect to the mechanical properties and the results were compared with the non heat-treated specimens. Morphology of the composites was studied by scanning electron microscopy and the mechanical properties were evaluated by means of tensile tests. The results showed that increase of cellulose nanofiber content from 5 wt% to 80 wt% has increased the tensile strength of the composites up to 180 MPa, with cellulose nanofiber content higher than 40 wt% yielding higher tensile strength. The heat-treated specimens exhibited higher tensile strength compared to those of untreated specimens.

Nanocellulose (NCC) is incorporated into nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) latex with the composition 0 to 5 phr using dipping method. Mechanical properties of NBR/NCC composites using tensile test was used to characterize their mechanical performance and the fracture surfaces post tensile test were studied. The tensile strength of NBR/NCC composites increase significantly with the addition of nanocellulose. This could be anticipated due to the presence of Van der Waals interaction between hydrophilic natures of nanocellulose with hydrophobic of NBR consequently limits the tearing propagation. The result was supported with the fracture surfaces morphology viewed under Fourier Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM).

In this paper, the effect of N addition on mechanical properties of 21Cr-11Ni austenitic heat-resisting stainless steel was investigated. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the fracture surfaces in the steels. N in 21Cr–11Ni heat-resisting steel can play a role of stabling austenite and ensuring the structure and mechanical properties in high temperatures. Fracture is changed from cleavage to ductile fracture to 21Cr–11Ni heat-resisting steel, and the strength of test steel are improved at room temperature by adding N, the tensile strength is increased by 8.33%. And the creep rupture strength is improved. The fracture time of the steel containing 0.2% N is 3.2 times higher than the steel containing 0.14% N at 1144K.
