Internal friction (IF) and dynamic modulus measurements on a high nitrogen (0.8 wt%) austenitic steel in the temperature range from room temperature to 800 °C have been carried out by using a vibrating reed technique with electrostatic excitation and frequency modulation detection of flexural vibrations in the frequency range of kHz. The IF spectrum of the as-prepared material shows a broad peak superimposed to an exponentially increasing background. The discontinuous precipitation of Cr2N phase changes the characteristics of the peak. The results have been discussed by considering interstitial-substitutional (i-s) interactions.

The discontinuous precipitation of a high-nitrogen (0.8 wt%) austenitic steel has been investigated after successive steps of heat treatment at two different temperatures (800 and 850 °C). After each step of heating the material has been examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical microscopy (OM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and microhardness tests. The precipitation of Cr2N induces the formation of a secondary austenitic phase, leads to the redistribution of N between transformed and untransformed zones and to local variations of mechanical properties.

Abstract The linear dynamic Young's modulus of a vulcanized Buna-N gum rubber was measured at frequencies of 0.05, 0.10, and 1.00 cps, in the temperature range − 22° C to 30° C, by a method in which a small differential sinusoidal elongation is superimposed on a 5 per cent static elongation. The width of the dispersion range on the temperature scale (the range in which the logarithm of the modulus increases steeply with decreasing temperature) is only about 10° C, contrasted with widths as great as 25° C found in previous measurements on a similar compound at frequencies of several kilocycles. The modulus-temperature plot shifts upward by only about 4° C per decade of frequency increase of the present range, contrasted with about 10° C per decade in the previous measurements at higher frequencies. It is concluded that this elastomer cannot be described properly by means of the “method of reduced variables”, in which the dynamic properties are ascribed to mechanisms having identical temperature dependence, and that the low-temperature behavior is governed by mechanisms distinct from those effective in the audio-frequency range at room temperature.

Rapidly Solidified

Large additions of B to Fe-Ni alloys can lead to the formation of an amorphous structure, if the alloy is rapidly cooled from the liquid state to room temperature. Isothermal aging of such structures at elevated temperatures causes crystallization to occur. Commonly such crystallization pro ceeds by the nucleation and growth of spherulites which are spherical crystalline bodies of radiating crystal fibers. Spherulite features were found in the present study in a rapidly solidified alloy that was fully crysstalline as-cast. This alloy was part of a program to develop an austenitic steel for elevated temperature applications by strengthening it with TiB2. The alloy contained a relatively large percentage of B, not to induce an amorphous structure, but only as a consequence of trying to obtain a large volume fracture of TiB2 in the completely processed alloy. The observation of spherulitic features in this alloy is described herein. Utilization of the large range of useful magnifications obtainable in a modern TEM, when a suitably thinned foil is available, was a key element in this analysis.

Terahertz Frequency Range

The terahertz frequency range is promising for solving various practically important problems. However, for the terahertz technology development, there is still a problem with the lack of affordable and effective terahertz devices. One of the main tasks is to search for new materials with high sensitivity to terahertz radiation at room temperature. Bi1−xSbx thin films with various Sb concentrations seem to be suitable for such conditions. In this paper, the terahertz radiation influence onto the properties of thermoelectric Bi1−xSbx 200 nm films was investigated for the first time. The films were obtained by means of thermal evaporation in vacuum. They were affected by terahertz radiation at the frequency of 0.14 terahertz (THz) in the presence of thermal gradient, electric field or without these influences. The temporal dependencies of photoconductivity, temperature difference and voltage drop were measured. The obtained data demonstrate the possibility for practical use of Bi1−xSbx thin films for THz radiation detection. The results of our work promote the usage of these thermoelectric materials, as well as THz radiation detectors based on them, in various areas of modern THz photonics.

In the present work, the dielectric properties of recycled liquid crystals (LCs) (non-purified, purified, and doped with diamond nanoparticles at 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 wt%) were investigated. The studied LC mixtures were obtained from industrial recycling of end-of-life LC displays presenting mainly nematic phases. Dielectric measurements were carried out at room temperature on a frequency range from 0.1 to 106 Hz using an impedance analyzer. The amplitude of the oscillating voltage was fixed at 1 V using cells with homogeneous and homeotropic alignments. Results show that the dielectric anisotropy of all purified samples presents positive values and decreases after the addition of diamond nanoparticles to the LC mixtures. DC conductivity values were obtained by applying the universal law of dielectric response proposed by Jonscher. In addition, conductivity of the doped LC mixtures is lower than that of the undoped and non-purified LC.

Hip Process

The HIP post-processing step is required for developing next generation of advanced powder metallurgy titanium alloys for orthopedic and dental applications. The influence of the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) post-processing step on structural and phase changes, porosity healing, and mechanical strength in a powder metallurgy Ti35Nb2Sn alloy was studied. Powders were pressed at room temperature at 750 MPa, and then sintered at 1350 °C in a vacuum for 3 h. The standard HIP process at 1200 °C and 150 MPa for 3 h was performed to study its effect on a Ti35Nb2Sn powder metallurgy alloy. The influence of the HIP process and cold rate on the density, microstructure, quantity of interstitial elements, mechanical strength, and Young’s modulus was investigated. HIP post-processing for 2 h at 1200 °C and 150 MPa led to greater porosity reduction and a marked retention of the β phase at room temperature. The slow cooling rate during the HIP process affected phase stability, with a large amount of α”-phase precipitate, which decreased the titanium alloy’s yield strength.

High Nitrogen Pressure

Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) have been prepared and optimized as already described in part I of this paper. The fibrous preform made of Hi-Nicalon S fibers was densified by a matrix composed of Si2N2O prepared inside the CMC by reacting a mixture of Si and SiO2 under high nitrogen pressure. This part describes the oxidation resistance and mechanical properties of the optimized CMC. The CMC submitted to oxidation in wet oxygen at 1400 °C for 170 h exhibited an oxidation gradient from the surface to almost the center of the sample. In the outer part of the sample, Si2N2O, Si3N4 and SiC were oxidized into silica in the cristobalite-crystallized form. The matrix microstructure looks similar to the original one at the center of the sample, while at the surface large pores are observed and the fiber/matrix interphase is consumed by oxidation. The elastic modulus and the hardness measured at room temperature by nano-indentation are, respectively, 100 and 8 GPa. The elastic modulus measured at room temperature by tensile tests ranges from 150 to 160 GPa and the ultimate yield strength from 320 to 390 MPa, which corresponds to a yield strain of about 0.6%. The yield strength identified by acoustic emission is about 40 MPa.

Fast Rotation

A study of the room-temperature ionic liquid N-methyl-N-ethylpyrrolidinium dicyanamide by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy over the frequency range 0.2 GHz ≤ ν ≤ 89 GHz has revealed that, in addition to the already known lower frequency processes, there is a broad featureless dielectric loss at higher frequencies. The latter is probably due to the translational (oscillatory) motions of the dipolar ions of the IL relative to each other, with additional contributions from their fast rotation.
