In this experiment, the influence of non-treated (NT), natural aging (T4) and artificial aging (T6) heat-treatments was investigated on the tensile strength of Al-5.9Cu-1.9Mg at different casting temperatures. Three levels of casting temperatures were used: 688, 738, 788 °C while the mold temperature was kept constant at 220 °C. The cast sample was heat-treated by natural aging and artificial aging techniques. The results show that the tensile strength in the non-treated sample decreases initially and then rises slightly with increasing casting temperature. The effect of casting temperature on T4 involved first an increase in tensile strength and then a decrease when elevating the casting temperature, but with no significant effect. In the T6 treatment, the tensile strength first decreases followed by a slight increase with increasing casting temperature. The heat treatment process improved the tensile strength in the three different samples, except at a casting temperature of 768 °C.

This paper studies the microstructure of drawn gold wires to equivalent strain of 10 and to equivalent strain of 8.5 then heat-treated. The texture of gold wire drawn to strain of 10 is mainly composed of <100> and <111> fibers. Tensile strength of the gold wire increases with <111> fiber fraction, while the grain size does not appear to affect the tensile property. With an exception at heat treatment at 600oC, the texture of gold wire drawn the strain of 8.5 is replaced with <100> fiber component by heat treatment process at 400~700oC. Heat treatment at 600oC produces <110> fiber or <112> fiber, depending upon annealing time.

Heat Treated Steel

A simple approach of two-step intercritical heat treatment has been employed to study the effect of heat treatment on the evolution of microstructures and their effect on the mechanical properties of alloy steel (AISI 1012). The selected steel samples were directly placed in the preheated furnace and were progressively heat treated in two steps, intercritically between the Ac1–Ac3 temperature range. Immediate water quenching (preheated at 30 ℃) was carried out after heat treatment cycles. The processed steels were characterized by examining the X-ray diffraction patterns, microstructures, Vickers microhardness, and tensile strength. The normalized X-ray diffraction results of heat-treated steels revealed the substantial growth in the martenistic phases. The microstructures of heat-treated steel revealed the formation of needle-shape-like structures, which corresponds to the martenistic phase. The increased formation of martenistic phase due to the intercritical heat treatment process improved the overall microhardness (from 188 ± 9 HV of the parent steel to 412 ± 32 HV for 800 ℃ heat-treated steel) up to 2.2 times. The presence of soft and ductile (ferritic and pearlite) phases simultaneously with tough and strong (martenistic) phase allowed the improvement in the ultimate tensile strength. In comparison to parent steel with tensile strength of 510 ± 15 MPa, the intercritical heat treatment steel at 800 ℃ revealed 169.6% higher tensile strength of 1375 ± 35 MPa. However, percentage elongation was reduced by 60%, i.e. from 13 ± 1% for parent steel to 5.2 ± 2% of intercritical heat treatment steel (processed at 800 ℃). An overall study revealed that by a proper intercritical heat treatment process, dual-phase steels with better structure–properties correlation can be obtained for industrial applications.

Phase Transition Cooling (PTC), using the absorbed latent heat during the melting of phase transition cooling medium to cool and solidify alloys in the process of casting, is a new casting technology. Specimens of A356 casting aluminum alloy were prepared by this method in the paper. The new heat treatment process (cast and then aging directly without solid solution) of A356 alloy was performed. For comparison, the conventional T6 heat treatment (solution and then aging treatment) was performed too. The mechanical properties of A356 alloy with different heat treatments were measured by tensile strength testing methods and microstructures of the alloy with different heat treatment process were investigated by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-rays diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) too. The results show that ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of A356 alloy with the new heat treatment process is much higher than that with conventional heat treatment while the elongations with the two heat treatment processes are very close. This is due to the grain refinement obtained after PTC processing.

Mechanical And Tribological Properties

This work deals with the examination of the mechanical properties of Aluminium (LM6) reinforced with iron oxide (Fe2O3). Stir casting process is used to formulate the composite sampling by varying iron oxide in 5% and 10% by weight. Three different heat treatment process of hardening, annealing and normalizing is carried out on samples of aluminium (LM6), aluminium (LM6) + 5% Fe2O3 and aluminium (LM6) + 10% Fe2O3. Composite specimens are tested to analyze the mechanical properties such as hardness, yield stress, tensile strength and elongation. Present reinforcement specks enabled the alloy to preserve higher hardness during the heat treatment. Results have shown substantial improvements in properties of the specimens with various compositions of reinforcement.

The composition and microstructure of silicon nitride fibers after heat-treatment at elevated temperatures were investigated by XRD, NMR, XPS, SEM and TEM analyses. The results show that as-received fibers consisted of amorphous silicon nitride, and a little Si-C-O structure. During heat-treatment process, α-Si3N4 and β-Si3N4 formed resulting from the crystallization of amorphous silicon nitride, and the formation of β-SiC derived from the decomposition of Si-C-O structure. As heat-treated temperature increased from 1400oC to 1600oC, the above phenomenon become obvious, indicating that the fiber would possess high serving life with serving temperature lower than 1400oC. The tensile strength of fibers stays stable when heat-treated temperature was below 1200oC, while the strength retention of fibers sharply decreased to 50% after heat-treatment at 1400°C.

Effects of heat treatment process of quenching and tempering under different temperature conditions on mechanical properties of X70 grade pipeline steel bends were studied. Brinell hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and impact absorbing energy of the bends were tested by using hardness tester, cupping machine and impact testing machine, respectively. It shows that the best heat treatment process of the X70 grade pipeline steel bends is quenching at 890 °Cand thermal insulation for 26 min then water cooling followed by tempering at 590 °C and thermal insulation for 60 min then air cooling. Furthermore, the resulting hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, yield ratio, elongation and impact absorbing energy reach HB230, 595 MPa, 725 MPa, 0.82, 28% and 300 J respectively, which has excellent comprehensive mechanical properties.

Aluminium alloys are subjected to heat treatment to increase the strength and corrosion properties. This paper aims to study the effect of heat treatment on the compression behaviour of A356 alloy under quasi static condition and barreling effect. The various heat treatments are: (i) solution heat treatment of 1 h at 540 °C + natural aging 0 h + artificial aging at 180 °C up to 5.5 h, (ii) solution heat treatment of 3 h at 540 °C + natural aging for 20 h + artificial aging at 180 °C up to 5.5 h, and (iii) solution heat treatment of 6 h at 540 °C + natural aging for 20 h + artificial aging at 180 °C up to 5.5 h. Specially to understand the influence of artificial aging at every 0.5 h up to 5.5 h, the specimens were heat treated. From the results, solutionizing for 1 hr have a better compression strength irrespective of the artificial aging. Natural aging had decreased the ductility but increased the strength property. Artificial aging had a significant effect on the compressive strength and peak strength were obtained at 4 h irrespective of solutionizing heat treatment. Compressive strength increased by 33 % for 1 h of solutionizing and 4 h of artificial aged specimen when compared to non-heat treated alloy. Two mathematical relations discussed in literature were used for calculating the radius of the barreled surface followed by validation. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.25.3.20442
