Dispersion strengthened aluminium composites have been prepared by mechanical alloying. At this work were studied the turning conditions to getin situformation and dispersion of Al4C3on 2024 alloy by graphite addition. The alloy matrix was obtained by attrition milling a mixture of starting powders; further additions of carbon (2,5; 5 and 10% wt) were performed by means of a planetary mill. Through an adequate sintering the reinforcement formation was showed by X-Ray diffraction analysis of powders with milling times next to 20 hours. The microhardness values appointed that mechanical properties were held even soft material addition (graphite) and improved by age hardening. Pin-on-disc test revealed the composite have low friction coefficient, due to lubricant carbon action and enough low volumetric wear due to high hardness of bulk Al4C3reinforcement.

W(100-x)%Cx% coatings with different tungsten and carbon contents were deposited by unbalanced magnetron sputtering. The microstructures and mechanical properties of the W(100-x)%C x% coatings was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nanoindentation and adhesion testing techniques. The tribological performance of the coatings was investigated using a pin-on-disc trobometer under dry conditions. Experimental results indicated that coating microstructure, mechanical properties and wear resistance varied according to the tungsten and carbon contents of the coatings. The W72%C28% coating had the highest hardness/elastic modulus (H/E) ratio. In the ball-on-disc wear tests, it was found that the W72%C28% coating exhibited the best wear resistance.

The interaction between a solid inert metal Ir and an active liquid metal Ga during mechanical activation in a high-energy planetary mill is studied by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with high-resolution energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis. The effect of mechanical activation on the formation of GaxIry intermetallic compounds and GaxIry/Ir composites and their solubility in acids was investigated. The subsequent extraction of Ga from intermetallic compounds and composites in the mixture of concentrated acids [Formula: see text] makes it possible to produce nanoscale Ir.

Abstract The present work investigates the possibility of using powder metallurgy processing for producing a metal matrix composite. Materials were prepared from AlSi5Cu2 chips with reinforcement of 10, 15, 20 wt. % silicon carbide. Aluminum alloy chips were milled with SiC powder in a high-energy ball mill by 40 hours. Mechanical alloying process lead to obtain an uniform distribution of hard SiC particles in the metallic matrix and refine the grain size. The consolidation of composite powders was performed by vacuum hot pressing at 450°C, under pressure of 600 MPa by 10 min. The results shows that the addition of SiC particles has a substantial influence on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composite powder as well as consolidated material. Hot pressing is an effective consolidation method which leads to obtain dense AlSi5Cu2/SiC composite with homogeneous structure and advanced mechanical properties.

Fluidized bed reactor chemical vapor deposition (FBR-CVD) has been used to enrich the surface of oxygen free high conductivity (OFHC) copper with titanium, silicon and aluminum. This technique enables the production of coherent and adherent intermetallic surface layers of uniform thickness and high hardness. The characterization of the coatings was performed using backscatter scanning electron microscopy (BS-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES) and micro-hardness. The tribological properties of the coatings in dry sliding contact with steel were evaluated by pin-on-disc wear testing.

ABSTRACTThe crystallization phenomena of certain ternary glass Ni-Mo-B alloys and their consolidated bulk properties, including age hardening effects after proper heat treatment, are investigated. Within the composition range studied, the glassy alloys crystallize by a two-stage process - first by forming a metastable microcrystalline structure of Ni solid solution at temperature around 490–530°C followed by boride precipitation at temperatures around 700–770°C. The boride, which is identified by x-ray diffraction as Mo2NiB2 , grows to submicron size after the alloys have been thermally treated at 1000°C and above for certain periods of time. Microstructural analysis shows borides isolated and well dispersed in Ni-Mo alloy matrix. Age hardening is achieved by precipitating the Ni/Mo intermetallic compound(s) in Ni-Mo matrix at an intermediate temperature of previously solutionized samples. Another characteristic of this group of alloys is the relatively high eutectic temperature, i.e. 1230°C and above. This will allow the alloys to be hot consolidated to full density by certain commercially available processes, such as hot isostatic pressing (HIP), while still maintaining the unique microstructure inherited from rapid solidification process. Hardness, hot hardness and hot tensile properties of some consolidated alloys are discussed.

The nanocrystalline zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) powder was synthesized by high energy reactive ball milling (RM) in a planetary mill. As starting materials a mixture of commercial zinc oxide (ZnO) powder and iron oxide (Fe2O3) powder was used. The starting mixture was milled for different periods of time, up to 30 h. The milled powders were annealed for 4 h at 350 oC in order to eliminate the internal stress and to finish the solid state reaction of ferrite formation. Zinc ferrite formation was investigated by X-ray diffraction. The obtained powder has a mean crystallite size of 12 nm after 20 h of milling. Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the particle morphology was studied. Particles size range of the powders was also determined using a laser particle size analyser.

The high energy ball milling of Ni-50 atom % Si elemental powder mixtures was carried out using a planetary mill. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the phase evolutions during the high energy ball milling period. The microstructure morphology of the powders milled different time was determined by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The beginning time of mechanical alloying was determined by back scattered electrons (BSE) images. The XRD patterns showed that the nickel peaks intensity and the silicon peaks intensity obviously decreased with milling time increased to 1 hour. BSE images revealed that nickel and silicon powders were not blended uniformly for 1 hour of milling. It was found that NiSi formed as the milling time increased to 5 hours, simultaneously, the nickel peaks and the silicon peaks almost disappeared. That means the obvious mechanical alloying started from 5 hours of milling. BSE images agreed with the result analyzed from XRD patterns. With the milling time further increased from 10 to 75 hours, the NiSi peaks decreased gradually, at the same time, the Ni2Si peaks appeared and then increased gradually.

The NiCr–TiB2–ZrB2 composite coating was deposited on the surface of blades made of steel (SUS304) using high-energy ball milling technology and air plasma spraying technology, which aimed to relieve the wear of the blades during operation. The influence of titanium diboride (TiB2) and zirconium diboride (ZrB2) on the microstructure and wear resistance of the coatings was investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Vickers microhardness tester, and a wear tester. The results showed that the TiB2 and ZrB2 particles were unevenly distributed in the coatings and significantly increased the hardness and anti-wear, which contributed to their ultra-high hardness and extremely strong ability to resist deformation. The performance of the coatings was improved with the increase of the number of ceramic phases, while the hardness and wear resistance of the coating could reach their highest value when the TiB2 and ZrB2 respectively took up 15 wt.% of the total mass of the powder.
