Mg-3wt.%Y alloys were processed by cyclic extrusion and compression (CEC) up to 7 passes at different temperatures from 375 to 450 °C, respectively. The microstructure was effectively refined and the mean grain size was decreased from 800 μm to 3–15 μm. Tensile and compressive tests were performed at room temperature at an initial strain rate of 1.11 × 10-3 s-1. The experimental results show that after 7-pass CEC processing the tensile yield strength and elongation-to-failure of Mg-3Y alloy increased simultaneously. Furthermore, the strength differential effect (SDE) of tension-compression of the alloy was weakened, especially the SDE value was only 3.3% when processed at 400 °C.

In this work, a (SiC-AlN)/ZrB2 composite with outstanding mechanical properties was prepared by using polymer-derived ceramics (PDCs) and hot-pressing technique. Flexural strength reached up to 460 ± 41 MPa, while AlN and ZrB2 contents were 10 wt%, and 15 wt%, respectively, under a hot-pressing temperature of 2000 °C. XRD pattern-evidenced SiC generated by pyrolysis of polycarbosilane (PCS) was mainly composed by 2H-SiC and 4H-SiC, both belonging to α-SiC. Micron-level ZrB2 secondary phase was observed inside the (SiC-AlN)/ZrB2 composite, while the mean grain size (MGS) of SiC-AlN matrix was approximately 97 nm. This unique nano-micron hybrid microstructure enhanced the mechanical properties. The present investigation provided a feasible tactic for strengthening ceramics from PDCs raw materials.

Vickers microhardness tests were used to gauge the mechanical "competence" (ability to resist bending and failure) of cortical and trabecular bone along the humeri of three bird species. Hardness was greatest at the mid-length portion of the shaft. The mean hardness of trabeculae, where present, was between 78.7 and 90.9% of that of the adjacent cortical bone. The possible causes of this are briefly discussed. Microhardness tests offer the opportunity to gauge differences in mechanical properties over small distances and might usefully be applied to test the homogeneity of mechanical properties within specimens for tensile or compressive tests.

Cyclic channel die compression (CCDC) of AZ31-1.7 wt.% Si alloy was performed up to 5 passes at 623 K in order to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of compressed alloys. The results show that multi-pass CCDC is very effective to refine the matrix grain and Mg2Si phases. After the alloy is processed for 5 passes, the mean grain size decreases from 300 μm of as-cast to 8 μm. Both dendritic and Chinese script type Mg2Si phases break into small polygonal pieces and distribute uniformly in the matrix. The tensile strength increases prominently from 118 MPa to 216 MPa, whereas the hardness of alloy deformed 5 passes only increase by 8.4% compared with as-cast state.

AbstractNanostructured magnetite/T multilayers, with T = Ni, Co, Cr, have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition. The thickness of individual magnetite and metal layers takes values in the range of 5 - 40 nm with a total multilayer thickness of 100 -120 nm. X-ray diffraction has been used to study the phase characteristics as a function of thermal treatment up to 550 °C. Small amounts of maghemite and hematite were identified together with prevailing magnetite phase after treatments at different temperatures. The mean grain size of magnetite phase increases with temperature from 12 nm at room temperature to 54 nm at 550 °C. The thermal behavior of magnetite in multilayers in comparison with powder magnetite is discussed.

The fabrication is a key process for the preparation of ceramic tool materials, which governs the mechanical properties of ceramic tool materials under the condition of the same compositions. A computer simulation coupled with fabrication temperature for the hot-pressing process of single-phase ceramic tool materials has been developed using a two-dimensional hexagon lattice model mapped from the realistic microstructure without considering the presence of pores. The fabrication of single-phase Al2O3 is simulated. The mean grain size of simulated microstructure by Monte Carlo Potts model integrated with fabrication temperature increases with an increase in fabrication temperature, which is consistent with the experiment results.

Compressive Tests

Ultrafine-grained (UFG) CP Ti were successfully prepared by Equal Channel Angular Extrusion (ECAE) at 390°C~400°C, small than 0.5 um in size. The compressive tests for coarse grain (CG) and UFG Ti were carried out at room temperature (RT) and 77K. UFG Ti showed excellent ductility and higher strength than CG Ti at RT and 77 K. The strain hardening of UFG Ti was improved at 77 K. The compressive ultimate strengths of CG Ti and UFG Ti were both enhanced as the strain rate increased, but CG Ti showed more obvious temperature and strain rate dependence of flow stress, comparing with UFG Ti. When the strain rate increased to 1×10-1/s, the compressive ultimate strength of UFG Ti was kept almost constant, while the ultimate strength of CG Ti increased to the strength level of UFG Ti.

Ultrafine Grained Steel

After reheated at different temperatures for 5 minutes, the 400MPa Ultrafine Grained Steel specimens were air-cooled to room temperature, and then carried out the mechanical nanocrystallization surface treatment and structure performance testing. On the basis of comparing the test results on the specimens before and after the mechanical nanocrystallization surface treatment, the process of mechanical nanocrystallization was analyzed briefly. The results show that: as the reheating temperature rising, the trend of grain size growing increases markedly, and the mechanical properties also drop down to different degrees; when the reheating temperature is around 800°C, because of the pearlite spheroidized significantly, its mechanical properties drop the most seriously; after the mechanical nanocrystallization surface treatment, not only its surface form a layer of fine nano-layer (about 100 nm) structure, but also its mechanical properties rise obviously, and the yield strength is over 450MPa.

AbstractMechanical properties of nanostructured intermetallic Ni3Al synthesized by the inert-gas condensation technique are studied by means of instrumental indentation using the ICT-CSEMEX indenter. This instrument is a microindenter which continously measures load and displacement. Load-displacement curves are performed as function of grain size, consolidation- and annealing temperature. The mean grain size of the samples are studied by means of x-ray diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering.

Different characterizations were carried out on red mud uncalcined and samples calcined in the range of 100°C–1400°C. In the present paper, the phase composition and structural transition of red mud heated from room temperature are indicated by XRD, TG-DTA, and SEM techniques. The mean particle diameter, density, and bond strength of these samples also have been investigated. The results indicate the decomposition of gibbsite into Al2O3and H2O between 300°C and 550°C and calcite into CaO and CO2in the interval of 600–800°C. Tricalcium aluminate and gehlenite are formed in the range of 800–900°C. Combined with the SEM images, the results of physical property testing show that the particle size and the strength each has a continuous rise during the heat treatment from 150°C to 1350°C. But the value of density will undergo a little drop before 450°C and then increases to a higher value at the temperature of 1200°C. These obtained results provide an important base for the further studies of comprehensive utilization of red mud.

Melt extrusion is a new fabrication process with the characteristics of both casting and extrusion. In this process, a metallic melt which is poured and solidified up to semisolid state in the container can be directly extruded through the die exit to form a product of bar shape without other intermediate processes. The aging behavior of Al-Cu alloys in the semisolid state was investigated. And the microstructure and mechanical properties of the melt extruded Al-Cu alloy bar were measured and its characteristics are compared with those of a hot extruded Al-Cu alloy bar. Al-Cu alloys were successfully extruded after squeezing out of liquid during melt extrusion with smaller force compared to the solid extrusion. Al-Cu alloys bar with the mean grain size of up to 200 μm was fabricated by melt extrusion process. And the mechanical properties of the melt extruded Al-Cu alloy bar were improved after the T6 treatment.
