Mg-3Al-1Zn (AZ31) alloy was caliber rolled at 250, 300, 350, 400 and 450 °C. The effects of caliber rolling temperature on the microstructure and tensile properties were investigated. The room temperature tensile tests were carried out to failure at a strain rate of 1 x 10-4s-1. The nature of stress-strain curves obtained was found to vary with the temperature employed in caliber rolling. The yield strength and tensile strength followed a sinusoidal behaviour with increasing caliber rolling temperature but no such trend was noted in ductility. These variations in tensile properties were explained by the varying grain sizes obtained as a function of caliber rolling temperature.

Microstructure and tensile properties of AZ31 rolled at different temperatures were characterized. Rolling of extruded AZ31 plates was carried out at room temperature, 573K, 623K and 673K. Cold rolling of extruded AZ31 plates was difficult due to the poor formability at room temperature. And deformation twinning plays an important role in rolling of AZ31 alloy at room temperature. The microstructural analysis showed that the nucleation of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurred at 573K, DRX was almost completed at 623K and grain growth was determined at 673K. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) as large as 377MPa was achieved after rolled at 573K. And the anisotropy in strength was obviously examined due to the rolling texture. The anisotropy reduced as rolling temperature increasing from 573K to 673K and this may be attributed to the completion of DRX.

In order to analyze high temperature deformation behavior of NiAl alloys, deformation maps were constructed for stoichiometric NiAl materials with grain sizes of 4 and 200 µm. Relevant constitute equations and calculation method will be described in this paper. These maps are particularly useful in identifying the location of testing domains, such as creep and tensile tests, in relation to the stress-temperature-strain rate domains experienced by NiAl.

In this study, graphene-oxide (GO)-reinforced Ti–Al–Sn–Zr–Mo–Nb–Si high-temperature titanium-alloy-matrix composites were fabricated by powder metallurgy. The mixed powders with well-dispersed GO sheets were obtained by temperature-controlled solution mixing, in which GO sheets adsorb on the surface of titanium alloy particles. Vacuum deoxygenating was applied to remove the oxygen-containing groups in GO, in order to reduce the introduction of oxygen. The compact composites with refined equiaxed and lamellar α phase structures were prepared by hot isostatic pressing (HIP). The results show that in-situ TiC layers form on the surface of GO and GO promotes the precipitation of hexagonal (TiZr)6Si3 particles. The composites exhibit significant improvement in strength and microhardness. The room-temperature tensile strength, yield strength and microhardness of the composite added with 0.3 wt% GO are 9%, 15% and 27% higher than the matrix titanium alloy without GO, respectively, and the tensile strength and yield strength at 600 °C are 3% and 21% higher than the matrix alloy. The quantitative analysis indicates that the main strengthening mechanisms are load transfer strengthening, grain refinement and (TiZr)6Si3 second phase strengthening, which accounted for 48%, 30% and 16% of the improvement of room-temperature yield strength, respectively.

The tensile properties of a low-cost first generation single crystal superalloy DD16 have been investigated. The results show that values of the tensile strength and yield strength of DD16 alloy were similar at typical temperatures; from room temperature to 760, the yield strength of DD16 alloy increases; However, above 760, the yield strength of DD16 alloy decreases remarkably, and the maximum of the yield strength was 1145.5MPa at 760. From room temperature to 760, the fracture mode was cleavage fracture; But above 760, the fracture characteristics changed from cleavage to dimple.

ABSTRACTMeasurements of tensile strength and creep resistance have been made on bulk samples of nanocrystalline Cu, Pd and Ag consolidated from powders by cold compaction. Samples of Cu-Cu2O have also been tested. Yield strength for samples with mean grain sizes of 5–80 nm and bulk densities on the order of 95% of theoretical density are increased 2–5 times over that measured in pure, annealed samples of the same composition with micrometer grain sizes. Ductility in the nanocrystalline Cu has exceeded 6% true strain, however, nanocrystalline Pd samples were much less ductile. Constant load creep tests performed at room temperature at stresses of >100 MPa indicate logarithmic creep. The mechanical properties results are interpreted to be due to grain size-related strengthening and processing flaw-related weakening.

The oxidation and tensile properties of a Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy and a Ni20Cr20Fe 5Nb1Y2O3 alloy with nano-sized grains were compared with those of the comercial IN718 alloy. The oxidation resistance of the Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb1Y2O3 alloy was superior to that of the Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb and IN 718 alloys. This superior oxidation resistance was the result of both the formation of dense oxides on the surface of the alloy and the interruption of Cr migration in the alloy by the addition of Y2O3. Moreover, the tensile property of the Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb1Y2O3 alloy at room temperature and 400oC was higher than that of the Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb and IN718 alloys by more than 300MPa (30%). This result can be attributed to the dispersion strengthening of Y2O3. The relatively low tensile strength at 600°C and 800°C of the alloys fabricated by mechanical alloying was attributed to grain refinement showing intergranular fracture at high temperatures.

Tensile tests were assessed to evaluate the ageing effects on carbon fiber/epoxy resin laminates exposed to ozone and water immersion. Laminates with distinct fiber arrangements (unidirectional - UD and plain weave - PW) were tested under transversal and longitudinal tensile strength at room (22°C) and high (88°C) temperatures after conditioning. The transversal tensile strength tests of UD laminates performed at room temperature show that the water immersion decreased this property in 28% when compared to non-conditioned samples. Ozone atmosphere also deteriorates the tensile strength considerably, drop of 27%. It was expected a higher drop in water immersion conditioning than in ozone atmosphere due to this conditioning attacks preferentially the external surface of specimen contrariwise the water immersion has diffusion inside the epoxy matrix. Tensile strength at high temperature shows more accentuated degradation for UD specimens exposed to water immersion (50% drop) than ozone (25%). Higher temperatures favor the degradation of the polymeric matrix and fibers/matrix interface. Tensile strength of PW laminates non-conditioned and conditioned with ozone, tested at room temperature, presented tensile strength results slightly different, 17% lower. When submitted to water immersion the results have dropped 26%, which are similar to unidirectional composite. At high temperature, PW laminate attacked with ozone had tensile strength reduced in 7%, while after water immersion the drop achieved 18%. These results show that water immersion affected the composite much more than ozone. Fractographic analyses confirmed that the combination between high temperature and conditioning promoted the degradation of matrix and fiber/matrix interface.

The tensile and creep properties of P92 steel have been studied using a precision tensile and creep test machines for miniature and conventional specimens under various stress level at 625°C. The results showed that the data stability of miniature plate specimens is high whether at room or high temperature tensile tests. Compared with the conventional plate specimens, tensile strength, yield strength and total elongation is slightly lower, the uniform elongation is higher for miniature plate specimens at room temperature. By contrast, the tensile strength and uniform elongation is slightly higher, and the yield strength and total elongation is lower at high temperature. Besides, there had similar creep curves between miniature and conventional specimens, and the creep rupture time and minimum creep rate are closer under the same stress. By comparing the power law creep index and damage tolerance factor at the second creep stage, it can be derived that the creep mechanism is identical for the micro and conventional specimens, which is controlled by the dislocation movement.

The changes of the tensile properties of the full lamellar TiAl alloy under pre-compression were studied by means of pre-compression damage tests and tensile tests. The study indicated that:The changes of the tensile property of the damaged alloy at room temperature were different from that of high temperature. The mechanical property of the TiAl alloy degrades because of the present of the cracks, which decrease the load area of the alloy.
