The annealing process of an improved Q420 cold drawn tube was studied by using different annealing temperatures (430°C, 450°C, 470°C, 490°C and 510°C) with a same annealing holding time (3h). The effect of different annealing temperatures on the mechanical properties, microstructure and fracture features of the cold drawn tube was studied by means of tensile test, microstructure observation and scanning electron microscopy analysis. The results show that, annealing temperature has great influence on the strength and plasticity of the cold drawn tube. When the annealing temperature increased to 450°C, banded microstructure was mitigated and the pearlite is relatively dispersed. The tensile fracture morphology under the annealing temperature of 450°C has more dimples and deeper bremsstrahlung than other annealing temperatures. The best annealing process of the cold drawn tube was 450°C×3h. Under this annealing process, the cold drawn tube with good strength and toughness can be obtained.

Ti films of same thickness, and near normal deposition angle, and same deposition rate were deposited on glass substrates, at room temperature, under UHV conditions. Different annealing temperatures as 393K, 493K and 593K with uniform 8 cm3/sec, oxygen flow, were used for producing titanium oxide layers. Their nanostructures were determined by AFM and XRD methods. Roughness of the films changed due to annealing process. The gettering property of Ti and annealing temperature can play an important role in the nanostructure of the films.

ABSTRACTRaman spectroscopy is used in a variety of ways to monitor different aspects of the lattice damage caused by ion implantation into graphite. Particular attention is given to the use of Raman spectroscopy to monitor the restoration of lattice order by the annealing process, which depends critically on the annealing temperature and on the extent of the original lattice damage. At low fluences the highly disordered region is localized in the implanted region and relatively low annealing temperatures are required, compared with the implantation at high fluences where the highly disordered region extends all the way to the surface. At high fluences, annealing temperatures comparable to those required for the graphitization of carbons are necessary to fully restore lattice order.

Nickel–ruthenium–phosphorus, Ni–Ru–P, alloy coatings were fabricated by magnetron dual-gun co-sputtering from Ni–P alloy and Ru source targets. The composition variation and related microstructure evolution of the coatings were manipulated by the input power modulation. The as-prepared Ni–Ru–P alloy coatings with a Ru content less than 12.2 at.% are amorphous/nanocrystalline, while that with a high Ru content of 52.7 at.% shows a feature of crystallized Ni, Ru, and Ru2P mixed phases in the as-deposited state. The crystallized phases for high Ru content Ni–Ru–P coatings are stable against annealing process up to 600 °C. By contrast, the amorphous/nanocrystalline Ni–Ru–P thin films withstand a heat-treated temperature up to 475 °C and then transform into Ni(Ru) and NixPy crystallized phases at an annealing temperature over 500 °C. The surface hardness of the Ni–Ru–P films ranges from 7.2 to 12.1 GPa and increases with the Ru content and the annealing temperatures. A highest surface hardness is found for the 550 °C annealed Ni–Ru–P with a high Ru content of 52.7 at.%. The Ecorr values of the heat-treated amorphous/nanocrystalline Ni–Ru–P coatings become more negative, while with a high Ru content over 27.3 at.% the Ni–Ru–P films show more negative Ecorr values after annealing process. The pitting corrosion feature is observed for the amorphous/nanocrystalline Ni–Ru–P coatings when tested in a 3.5M NaCl solution. Severer pitting corrosion is found for the 550 °C annealed Ni–Ru–P coatings. The development of Ni(Ru) and NixPy crystallized phases during annealing is responsible for the degeneration of corrosion resistance.

A series of simulated continuum annealing experiments were done on 0.4mm Ti-IF by Gleeble-3800 thermal simulation machine at 700, 730, 760, 790, 820 and 850 degree. The optical microstructures of the specimens were characterized. Transmission electron microscopy analysis was carried out to investigate the second phase particles shape, size and distribution. The mechanical properties of the specimens were measured. The results showed that the yield strength and the tension strength of the steel decreased when the annealing temperature increased, the elongation increased when the annealing temperature increased, expect a maximum elongation value at 760 degree. Based on the microstructure and the second phase, the reason why there was a maximum value was discussed.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of a medium manganese quenching and partitioning (Q&P) steel for automobile were investigated by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and mechanical property test. The grain size and recovery degree were greatly affected by annealing temperature normally. The result shows that the medium manganese steel after quenching and partitioning (Q&P) heat treatment exhibited good mechanical properties. The maximum tensile strength and yield strength was 1280MPa and 1421MPa at 600°C, respectively. Additionally, the product of strength and plasticity could reached to 40472MPa×% at 640°C. Annealing temperature also had a great influence on the volume of retained austenite which increases linearly with the rise of annealing temperature as well.

AbstractThe 0.3%Y2O3/0.3%La2O3/0.3%Al2O3/Cu composite was prepared by oxygen and nitrogen atomization spray deposition technique, internal oxidation, and then treated by annealing at different temperatures. Physical properties such as microstructures, fracture appearance, hardness, strength, electrical conductivity, and arc erosion surface of the composite were investigated. The experimental results show that with an increase in the annealing temperature, the grains of the composite grow up obviously and the electrical conductivity of the composite increases gradually, while the hardness and the tensile strength decrease. When the annealing temperature reaches 1000°C, the matrix grains begin to appear as annealing twins. The tensile fracture morphology of the composite that has been treated by annealing at 700°C for 2 h shows a huge number of large and deep dimples, in which the metallic oxide particles exist. The fracture mode of the composite is the microporous polycondensation plastic fracture. The arc erosion surface shows a large number of paste-like coagulum and bubbles.

With recent developments in technology and science, we have been depending heavily on synthetic materials for various applications. In the present work, jute, banana and glass fibers are reinforced with epoxy resin in alternative positioning and various probabilities at different post curing temperature to form sandwich type composites. The composite block was cured at room temperature for 24hrs. The cold cured composite block was then post cured at various post curing temperature of 30°C, 60°C, 90°C, 120°C, 150°C and 180°C and 3KPa pressure in the hot press for 10minutes. The tensile and flexural properties of the composites obtained at different post curing temperature were studied. The morphology of the tensile fracture was studied using scanning electron microscopy analysis.

Ion mills equipped with flood guns can perform two important functions in material analysis; they can either remove material or deposit material. The ion mill holder shown in Fig. 1 is used to remove material from the polished surface of a sample for further optical inspection or SEM ( Scanning Electron Microscopy ) analysis. The sample is attached to a pohshing stud type SEM mount and placed in the ion mill holder with the polished surface of the sample pointing straight up, as shown in Fig 2. As the holder is rotating in the ion mill, Argon ions from the flood gun are directed down at the top of the sample. The impact of Argon ions against the surface of the sample causes some of the surface material to leave the sample at a material dependent, nonuniform rate. As a result, the polished surface will begin to develop topography during milling as fast sputtering materials leave behind depressions in the polished surface.

This work reports on the improvement of ohmic contacts made on heavily p-type doped 4H-SiC epitaxial layer selectively grown by Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) transport. Even before any annealing process, the contact is ohmic. This behavior can be explained by the high doping level of the VLS layer (Al concentration > 1020 cm-3) as characterized by SIMS profiling. Upon variation of annealing temperatures, a minimum value of the Specific Contact Resistance (SCR) down to 1.3x10-6 Ω.cm2 has been obtained for both 500 °C and 800 °C annealing temperature. However, a large variation of the SCR was observed for a same process condition. This variation is mainly attributed to a variation of the Schottky Barrier Height.
