In this article, the microstructural peculiarities and properties of dispersion-hardened beryllium bronze with Ni and Ti are studied after quenching (780 °C) in a supersaturated solid solution and aging (320 °C, 3h). Decomposition of the α-solid solution matrix is implemented by means of an intermittent reaction with a primary allocation intermetallic χ-phase (type Be12Ti) with a VCT-lattice. It is shown that the strength properties (yield strength, micro-hardness) of the alloy more than double after aging.

The peculiarities of the microstructure and properties of BrBNT1.7 beryllium bronze tape samples were studied: the samples were subjected to dispersion hardening as a result of quenching in a supersaturated solid solution and aging. Friction deformation in a dry friction mode provides additional effective hardening while maintaining increased plasticity (bending-and-unbending test).

The microstructure and mechanical properties of the Mg97Zn1Y2 alloy prepared by spark plasma sintering of gas atomized powders have been investigated. After consolidation, precipitates were observed to form in the α-Mg solid solution matrix of the Mg97Zn1Y2 alloy. These precipitates consisted of Mg12YZn and Mg24Y5 phases. The density of the consolidated bulk Mg-Zn-Y alloy was 1.86 g/cm3. The ultimate tensile strength and elongation were dependent on the consolidation temperature, which were in the ranges of 280 to 293 MPa and 8.5 to 20.8 %, respectively.

Studies have already established that the mechanical properties of Babbitt coatings significantly depend on the microstructural characteristics, such as the amount and distribution of intermetallic compounds dispersed in a soft solid solution matrix. For Sn–Sb–Cu-based Babbitt coatings, the formation of SbSn- and CuSn-based precipitates has a substantial influence on the resulting microhardness and thus determines the maximum load carrying capacity. Thermal spraying of Sn-based Babbitt coatings results in a relatively more refined structure of these precipitates than in common manufacturing processes, such as casting, due to the thermal processing conditions. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the temperature of the propellant gas and substrate temperature on the microstructural characteristics of Sn–Sb–Cu-based Babbitt coatings deposited by low pressure cold spraying (LPCS). The deposits were examined for their phase composition, microhardness and mesoscopic structure. It was found that the coatings were mainly composed of Sb2Sn23, Sb0.49Sn0.51 and Sorosite (CuSn or CuSb0.115Sn0.835), regardless of the substrate temperature or temperature of the propellant gas to be investigated. For a gas temperature above 300 °C, an increased microhardness was observed, which correlates with the appearance of a more homogenous distribution of Sb0.49Sn0.51 dispersed in a soft Sn-rich solid solution matrix.

A layer of Ni-Cr-Si-B-Fe alloy was successfully coated on plain steel substrate by hot dipping process. The Ni-Cr-Si-B-Fe alloy coating has a homogeneous thickness of 3mm. The chemical composition and microstructure were studied with SEM and XRD in this paper. The result shows that the Ni-Cr-Si-B-Fe alloy coating is defect-free and chemical bonded with plain steel substrate. A light band zone of 8-10 m width is between Ni-Cr-Si-B-Fe alloy coating and plain steel substrate, and may be considered as a quickly solidified layer. The coating microstructure is a heterogeneous microstructure and changes from the light band zone to the surface of the coating, which is composed mainly of coarse columnar dendrite, needle-like precipitates and scattered eutectic structures. Four regions across the thickness of Ni brazing alloy coating, due to solidification conditions upon hot-dipping, have been identified with distinguished microstructure. In γ-(Fe, Ni) solid solution matrix, the hard phases of CrB, Fe2B and Cr23C6 is identified in the coating.

The current study seeks to further understand the precipitation sequence in a WE54 Mg alloy using in situ X-ray diffraction, micro-hardness and electrical resistivity during ageing at 250 and 300 °C. We show that the mean hardening effect is due to the precipitation of β' and β1metastable phases. The analysis of the kinetics of the precipitation shows that both phases nucleate at grain boundaries and within grains in the form of plates.

The effects of cold rolling, solid solution, aging and annealing treatment on Pt-0.7Ti microalloy were investigated in this study. The microstructures of Pt-0.7Ti microalloy and the precipitated ordered phase Pt8Ti were observed and analyzed by OM, TEM, XRD. The mechanical properties of the alloy were evaluated Vicker micro-hardness. The results showed that micro amount of Ti was an effective element for solid-solution strengthening of Pt, the micro-hardness of 97% deformation for ST and ST+AG samples increased to 214HVand 224HV, respectively, which almost are double that of pure Pt. Micro-amount of long range ordered phase Pt8Ti was precipitated during the heat treatment, but the effect of order hardening in Pt-0.7Ti microalloy was not obvious. The microhardness by large rolling deformation for quenched samples almost unchanged after an annealing below 500°C for 1h, but decreased significantly at 700°C, and the recrystallization temperature was risen by 200°C than that of pure Pt.
