TiB2-WC-TiC-Ni composite tool materials were fabricated using Ni as sintering additive by vacuum hot-pressing technique. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the composite were investigated. The composite was analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The microstructure of TiB2-WC-30wt.%TiC-Ni composite containing fine WC grains, TiC grains and uniform TiB2grains. A lot of pores and coarse grains were found in TiB2-WC-10wt.%TiC-Ni composite. The pores, brittle phases and the coarse grains were harmful to the improvement of the mechanical properties of the composite. The good wettability and the adequate liquid not only inhibited the formation of the pores and the coarse grains, but also strengthened the interface energy among the grains. The flexural strength, fracture toughness and Vickers hardness of TiB2-WC-30wt.%TiC-Ni composite were 996.6±113.6MPa, 7.64±0.28MPa•m1/2and 23.58±0.82GPa, respectively.

Microstructure And Mechanical Properties

TiB2/TiN composites with various content of Ni and Mo as sintering aid were hot-pressed at 1530°C. Effect of the content of sintering aid on microstructure and mechanical properties is investigated. Experimental results show that the fracture toughness of the composites increases consistently with an increase in the sintering aid content, however, the flexural strength gets to the maximum when the content of sintering aid is 10vol%. A new eutectic phase of MoNi can be found in the composites by X-ray diffraction (XRD) when the amount of sintering aid is over 7vol%. Scan electron microscope (SEM) analysis shows that the density of the composites increases consistently with the increasing of the sintering aid. But the abnormal-growth grains can be found and deteriorates the flexural strength in the composite No.4 because of the excessive sintering aid.

The effects of yttrium addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of extruded Mg-Zn-Y-Zr magnesium alloys were investigated by using optical microscope(OM), X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) et al. It was shown that the addition of yttrium resulted in the formation of the new phase, Mg3Zn3Y2, which distributed both on the grain boundaries and inside the grains. With the increasing of Y content, the amount of Mg3Zn3Y2 phase increases and the size becomes uniform. Grain refinement was found especially with 5.92%Y addition and a certain amount of coarse grains were formatted in the alloy with 3.95% Y addition, which led to the decline of the mechanical properties. The yield strength of the Mg-Zn-Y-Zr alloys was improved with the addition of Y, but the tensile strength was not changed obviously.

Microstructure And Mechanical Properties

A series of refractory high-entropy alloys VTaTiMoAlx with x=0,0.2,0.6,1.0 were designed and produced by vacuum arc melting. The effect of added Al elements on the microstructure and mechanical properties of refractory high-entropy alloys were investigated. The X-ray diffraction results showed that all the high-entropy alloys consist of simple BCC solid solution. SEM indicated that the microstructure of VTaTiMoAlx changes from equiaxial dendritic-like structure to typical dendrite structure with the addition of Al element. The composition of different regions in the alloys are obtained by energy dispersive spectroscopy and shows that Ta, Mo elements are enriched in the dendrite areas, and Al, Ti, V are enriched in inter-dendrite areas. The yield strength and compress strain reach maximum (σ0.2=1221MPa, ε=9.91%) at x=0, and decrease with the addition of Al element at room temperature. Vickers hardness of the alloys improves as the Al addition.

Brazed Joints

Titanium and zirconia (ZrO2) ceramics are widely used in biomedical fields. This study aims to achieve reliable brazed joints of titanium/ZrO2 using biocompatible Au filler for implantable medical products. The effects of brazing temperature and holding time on the interfacial microstructures and mechanical properties of titanium/Au/ZrO2 joints were fully investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicated that the typical interfacial microstructure of the titanium/Au/ZrO2 joint was titanium/Ti3Au layer/TiAu layer/TiAu2 layer/TiAu4 layer/TiO layer/ZrO2 ceramic. With an increasing brazing temperature or holding time, the thickness of the Ti3Au + TiAu + TiAu2 layer increased gradually. The growth of the TiO layer was observed, which promoted metallurgical bonding between the filler metal and ZrO2 ceramic. The optimal shear strength of ~35.0 MPa was obtained at 1150 °C for 10 min. SEM characterization revealed that cracks initiated and propagated along the interface of TiAu2 and TiAu4 reaction layers.

Effects of AlN addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-Al-Zn magnesium alloy were investigated using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and tensile testing. Five different samples were made with different amounts of AlN(0wt%, 0.12wt%, 0.30wt%, 0.48wt%, 0. 60wt%). The results show that the phases of as-cast alloy are composed of α-Mg,β-Mg17Al12. The addition of AlN suppressed the precipitation of the β-phase. And, with the increase of AlN content, the microstructure of β-phase was changed from the reticulum to fine grains. When AlN content was up to 0.48wt% in the alloy, the β-phase became most uniform distribution. After adding 0.3wt% AlN to Al-Mg-Zn alloy, the average alloy grain size reduced from 102μm to 35μm ,the tensile strength of alloy was the highest. The average tensile strength increased from 139MPa to 169.91MPa, the hardness increased from 77.7HB to 98.4HB, but the elongation changes indistinctively. However, when more amount of AlN was added, the average alloy grain size did not reduce sequentially and increased to 50μm by adding 0.6wt% AlN and the β-phase became a little more.

Abstract The influence of bonding temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of AA5251 alloy sheets have been analyzed in the paper. The alloy was deformed with the method of accumulative roll bonding (ARB) in various temperature conditions i.e. at ambient temperature up to 5th cycle (ε = 4.0) and using pre-heating of sheet packs at 200°C and 300°C up to 10 cycles (ε = 8.0). The deformed material was subjected to structural observations using TEM, measurements of crystallographic texture with the technique of X-ray diffraction and tensile tests. It was established that the temperature of roll-bonding had a significant effect on the structure evolution and the observed changes of mechanical properties. High refinement of microstructure and optimum mechanical properties were obtained for the material processed at lower temperatures, i.e. at ambient temperature and pre-heating at 200°C. Recovery structure processes occurring during deformation were observed in the alloy bonded with pre-heating at 300°C and therefore mechanical properties were lower than for the alloy bonded at lower temperatures.

AbstractThe AgSnO2NiO composites were prepared by internal oxidation method. The effects of different NiO content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of AgSnO2NiO composites were studied. The phase structure and surface morphology of the prepared AgSnO2NiO materials were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Metallographic Microscopy (MM). The results showed that the AgSnO2NiO composites with different NiO content can be obtained by the process of preoxidation of AgSn alloy powder and internal oxidation of ingot containing Ni. The agglomeration phenomenon of Ni in the silver matrix was serious, which led to the agglomeration of in-situ generated NiO particles after internal oxidation. After the multi-pass drawing, the SnO2 particles dispersedly distributed in the AgSnO2NiO composites and the NiO particles gradually dispersed from the agglomerated state of the sintered ingot billet. The hardness of the prepared AgSnO2NiO composites increased slightly with the increase of NiO content. The mechanical properties test showed that the introduction of NiO particles significantly improved the tensile strength and elongation of AgSnO2 materials to a certain degree. Adding proper amount of NiO is beneficial to improve the overall performance of AgSnO2 materials.
