Mechanical property of carbon-free Co-Ni-Cr-Mo based superalloy was investigated at room temperature and at 943 K. Cold working and subsequent recrystallization heat treatment was carried out to produce an equiaxed grain structure. The average grain size was controlled to 28 and 238 µm in order to understand the effect of grain size on mechanical property and flow behavior. At room temperature and 943 K, 0.2% offset yield strength increased with decreasing grain size to exhibit grain size dependence. At 943 K, a specimen with the average grain size of 28 µm showed higher yield strength than that obtained with a specimen having the average grain size of 238 µm. A steady-state like behavior leading to an extensive ductility was observed in the fine-grained specimen. {111}<112> deformation twinning was found to correlate with the steady-state like behavior in the true stress-true strain curve. It was suggested that grain refinement is favor to enhance the fracture strength and allow the deformation twinning to occur.

A recrystallized Co-Ni-Cr-Mo based superalloy was produced by cold working of 72% and subsequent recrystallization heat treatment. Microstructural observation revealed that a full recrystallization of the cold-worked alloy occured when heat treatment was performed at and above 1273K for 1h. So that, recrystallization heat treatment was carried out in a temperature range from 1273K to 1473K for 1h~24h, by which the average grain size was controlled to 28µm~238µm. Tensile tests were carried out from room temperature (RT) to 1073K in order to understand the effect of grain size on the mechanical properties of the Co-Ni-Cr-Mo based superalloy. At RT and 943K, yield strength, tensile strength and elongation of the recrystallized alloy were improved with decreasing grain size. The alloy having a grain size less than 42µm exhibited a steady-state flow behavior in the true stress-true strain curve at 943K. However, the alloy having a grain size of 28µm showed lower yield strength than that of 42µm at 1073K. It was found that the steady state flow is closely related to the occurrence of {111}<112> deformation twinning in the Co-Ni-Cr-Mo based superalloy.

The effect of hydrogenation on structure and properties of TC21 alloy by die forming and sintering using hydrogenated powder was researched by means of the room-temperature die forming and sintering in protection air to produce titanium alloy. The results show that the structure of TC21 titanium sintered body using hydrogenated powder with hydrogen content of 0.39 wt% by die forming and sintering is thinner and the density is higher than the others. The compression strength and compressive yield strength of TC21 sintered body with hydrogen content of 0.39 wt% are well. With hydrogen content increasing, the structure of TC21 production using hydrogenated powder by die forming and sintering gets well and the grain size becomes smaller. After annealing, the structure of TC21 titanium production gets more uniformity and refinement obviously, and the hydrogen content of TC21 alloy safety state is achieved. In the end, the density and mechanical property of TC21 titanium alloy sintered body with hydrogen content of 0.39wt % is the best.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of grain size on mechanical properties in Cu-Sn foil with a thickness of 30 um. The grain size was varied from approximately 7 um to 50 um using heat treatment at 773 K for 2 h to 24 h in a vacuum atmosphere. Tensile test was carried out at room temperature with strain rate of 1mm/min. Typical yield drop phenomenon was observed. Mechanical properties were found to be strongly affected by microstructural features including grain size. The yield strength and tensile strength gradually decreased with increasing the grain size. The strain to fracture also decreased by grain growth. These results could be explained by not only the grain size dependence of yield strength but also the ratio of thickness to grain size dependence of yield strength.

Abstract The paper analyzes the influence of different heat treatment processes on the mechanical properties of low-alloy high-strength steel denoted by Polish Standard (PN) as 10MnVNb6. One of the findings is that, after aging, the mechanical properties of rolled steel are high: the yield strength may reach > 600 MPa, and the ultimate tensile strength is > 700 MPa. These properties are largely dependent on the grain size and dispersion of the strengthening phase in the ferrite matrix. Aging applied after hot rolling contributes to a considerable rise in the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength. The process of normalization causes a decrease in the average grain size and coalescence (reduction of dispersion) of the strengthening phase. When 10MnVNb6 steel was aged after normalization, there was not a complete recovery in its strength properties.

The microstructure and mechanical property of Al 5083 alloy produced by spray forming and then subsequent hot extrusion at 693 K were investigated. In order to compare the mechanical property and microstructure permanent casting and hot extrusion was also carried out in air. The spray formed Al 5083 alloy showed the microstructure consisting of Al matrix phase, MnAl6, FeAl6 and Mg2Al3 dispersoids. This microstructural feature analyzed is quite similar to Al5083 alloy prepared by conventional casting. However, a noticeable difference in grain size appeared between those alloys with different processing. It is found that spray forming plays an effective role to reduce the grain size of the present Al 5083 alloy. At room temperature, the yield strength of spray formed alloy was higher than that of permanent casting alloy. At high temperature, spray forming appeared to display a higher elongation value than conventional casting. It is therefore suggested that spray forming of the present Al 5083 alloy promotes to increase yield strength at room temperature and to increase elongation at high temperature. Details will be discussed in relation with the results obtained.

Although nanocrystalline (Nc) metallic thin films are excellent candidate materials for Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) and microelectronics due to their outstanding yield strength, serious reliability concerns arise from their increased room temperature creep rates. A comprehensive experimental investigation was carried out to extract the strain-rate dependent mechanical behavior of Au (38 nm grain size) and Ni (20 nm grain size) micron-thin films conducted for the very first time at strain rates in the broad range of 10−6 – 10 /s which spans time scales from ms to hours. Nc-Au films demonstrated a clear bi-linear change in their inelastic properties, i.e. the elastic limit and its yield strength, while the Nc-Ni films showed a linear increase in their inelastic properties over the same loading rates. This unexpected trend for the Au films emphasized the significant contribution of room temperature (RT) creep at strain rates between 10−6 – 10−4 /s, at which rate, larger grain size materials are not prone to creep at RT. This realization prompted a series of novel microscale creep experiments, the first of their kind, at time scales of 104–105 s. An important finding was that the first stage of creep, primary creep, proceeds at a very fast rate, of the order of 10−7 /s, lasting for 5–6 hours after the application of a stress. Furthermore, multi-stage creep experiments revealed that the primary creep rate decreased with the order of creep cycle, while the steady state creep response remained the same in all creep cycles. This creep response of nanocrystalline FCC films was modeled via a non-linear viscoelastic creep model that captured the effect of applied stress on both primary and steady-state creep regimes.

Oxide dispersion-strengthened (ODS) materials contain homogeneous dispersions of temperature-stable nano-oxides serving as obstacles for dislocations and further pinning of grain boundaries. The strategy for dispersion strengthening based on complex oxides (Y-Hf, -Zr, -Ce, -La) was developed in order to refine oxide dispersion to enhance the dispersion strengthening effect. In this work, the strengthening of EUROFER steel by complex oxides based on Y and elements of the IIIB group (lanthanum, scandium) and IVB group (cerium, hafnium, zirconium) was explored. Interparticle spacing as a dispersoid characteristic appeared to be an important factor in controlling the dispersion strengthening contribution to the yield strength of ODS EUROFER steels. The dispersoid size and average grain size of ODS EUROFER steel were altered in the ranges of 5–13 nm and 0.6–1.7 µm, respectively. Using this strategy, the yield strength of the prepared alloys varied between 550 MPa and 950 MPa depending on the doping element.

The current study presents a detailed investigation for the equal channel angular pressing of pure copper through two regimes. The first was equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) processing at room temperature and the second was ECAP processing at 200 °C for up to 4-passes of route Bc. The grain structure and texture was investigated using electron back scattering diffraction (EBSD) across the whole sample cross-section and also the hardness and the tensile properties. The microstructure obtained after 1-pass at room temperature revealed finer equiaxed grains of about 3.89 µm down to submicrons with a high density of twin compared to the starting material. Additionally, a notable increase in the low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) density was observed. This microstructure was found to be homogenous through the sample cross section. Further straining up to 2-passes showed a significant reduction of the average grain size to 2.97 µm with observable heterogeneous distribution of grains size. On the other hand, increasing the strain up to 4-passes enhanced the homogeneity of grain size distribution. The texture after 4-passes resembled the simple shear texture with about 7 times random. Conducting the ECAP processing at 200 °C resulted in a severely deformed microstructure with the highest fraction of submicron grains and high density of substructures was also observed. ECAP processing through 4-passes at room temperature experienced a significant increase in both hardness and tensile strength up to 180% and 124%, respectively.

LiNiO2 thin films for the application of cathode of the rechargeable battery were fabricated by Li ion diffusion on the surface oxidized NiO layer. Bi-axially textured Ni-tapes with 50 ~ 80 μm thickness were fabricated using cold rolling and annealing of Ni-rod prepared by cold isostatic pressing of Ni powder. Surface oxidation of Ni-tapes were conducted using tube furnace or line-focused infrared heater at 700 °C for 150 sec in flowing oxygen atmosphere, resulted in NiO layer with thickness of 400 and 800 μm, respectively. After Li was deposited on the NiO layer by thermal evaporation, LiNiO2 was formed by Li diffusion through the NiO layer during subsequent heat treatment using IR heater with various heat treatment conditions. IR-heating resulted in the smoother surface and finer grain size of NiO and LiNiO2 layer compared to the tube-furnace heating. The average grain size of LiNiO2 layer was 0.5~1 μm, which is much smaller than that of sol-gel processed LiNiO2. The reacted LiNiO2 region showed homogeneous composition throughout the thickness and did not show any noticeable defects frequently found in the solid state reacted LiNiO2, but crack and delamination between the reacted LiNiO2 and Ni occurred as the reaction time increased above 4hrs.

The as-sprayed zirconia coating had an average grain size of 67 nm. Thermal treatment results showed that the grains of the nanostructured coating grew slightly below 900°C, whereas over 1000°C the gains grew rapidly. The thermal diffusivity of the coating increases with increasing heat-treatment temperatures.
