Abstract The use of lighter materials is one of the efficient means to mitigate the increasing demands on fuel resources, reduce CO2 emissions. Mg is one of the lightest material available and possesses exciting range of properties such as low density and high strength to weight ratio. Despite such exciting properties, the applications of Mg and its alloys were very limited in aerospace, automotive and biomedical industries but recently the application is picking-up. The restricted application is attributed to anisotropy, poor corrosive resistance and inflammability of Mg. The current review addresses the barriers limiting the widespread application of Mg based materials. Furthermore, the mitigation of the problems of anisotropy, poor corrosion resistance, ductility and inflammability of Mg are critically reviewed. The findings of this research provide insights of the processing techniques, properties and how to address the potential barriers of limited applications. The review paper will assist and motivate the researchers to ponder and overcome numerous problems related to Mg and its alloys by understanding the importance of each problem discussed in this review. An attempt has also been made to arrange research status on issues and the mitigation thereof with respect to Mg and its alloys as single reference point.

Magnesium alloys are being used as structural components in industry because of their high strength to weight ratio. But their high electrochemical activity and poor corrosion resistance limited their applications. Therefore, surface modifications are needed for protection purpose. This paper studied the anodic micro-arc oxidation and electroless Ni-P plating surface modifications on AZ80 magnesium alloy. The SEM, XRD and EDS were used to characterize the surface coating. It shows that a micro-porous MgO layer with the pores size 5 – 20 μm was fabricated on the bare magnesium alloy. The nodule Ni-P deposition could be prepared on the out layer of MgO with Ni/P atomic ratio being 1.4. The pores in MgO layer could be sealed by the following Ni-P deposition. Therefore the corrosion resistance of the magnesium alloy could be further improved.

The need for metallic biomaterials will always remain high with their growing demand in joint replacement in the aging population. This creates need for the market and researchers to focus on the development and advancement of the biometals. Desirable characteristics such as excellent biocompatibility, high strength, comparable elastic modulus with bones, good corrosion resistance, and high wear resistance are the significant issues to address for medical implants, particularly load-bearing orthopedic implants. The widespread use of titanium alloys in biomedical implants create a big demand to identify and assess the behavior and performance of these alloys when used in the human body. Being the most commonly used metal alloy in the fabrication of medical implants, mainly because of its good biocompatibility and corrosion resistance together with its high strength to weight ratio, the tribological behavior of these alloys have always been an important subject for study. Titanium alloys with improved wear resistance will of course enhance the longevity of implants in the body. In this paper, tribological performance of titanium alloys (medical grades) is reviewed. Various methods of surface modifications employed for titanium alloys are also discussed in the context of wear behavior.

AbstractTitanium (Ti) and its alloys have been extensively applied in various fields of chemical industry, marine, aerospace and biomedical devices because of a specific combination of properties such as high strength to weight ratio, exceptional corrosion resistance and excellent biocompatibility. However, friction and wear, corrosion which usually occur on the surfaces of Ti-base components can lead to degradation in both properties and performance. Thermal oxidation (TO) of titanium and its alloys under certain conditions can accomplish significant improvements both in wear resistance and corrosion resistance, without special requirements for substrate geometries. In this review, the studies and applications of TO process in surface damage mitigation titanium and its alloys were reviewed and summarized.

Magnesium alloys has been used for a wide variety of applications, namely from the reason of their low density and high strength–to–weight ratio. The properties of magnesium alloys are connected with microstructure that is influenced by metallurgical and technological aspects. Scope of utilisation of foundry magnesium alloys is continuously being extended, so if we want to operate as competitive producers, it is necessary to investigate very actively properties of individual alloys, optimise their chemical composition, study issues of their metallurgical preparation, verify experimentally their casting properties and conditions of successful casting of castings by individual methods, including heat treatment. Recently, however, increases also utilisation of formed magnesium alloys namely application of SPD methods. The experimental part deals with hardness and structure determination of selected magnesium alloys after ECAP processing.

Machinability Analysis

Aluminium Matrix Composites are extensively used due to their desirable properties like low weight, low cost, high strength to weight ratio, good corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity and high stiffness. Their applications are diversified in production, thermal, marine and automobile industries. Aluminium is extensively used in ships, aircrafts, cars, electrical wires and household utensils because it is abundant in nature. In the present study, Aluminium alloy Al6061 Hybrid Composites reinforced with Boron carbide and Coconut shell ash are fabricated to replace the individual Aluminium alloy Al6061. For that various tests to determine properties such as strength, hardness, wear and corrosion resistance are conducted on composite samples which make them fit to be used in aircraft window frames by reviewing various literatures. In addition to above, machinability analysis is performed on all the specimens and their surface roughness is measured. Based on the results obtained, we can come to a conclusion that the aluminium composite has superior properties than individual Al6061 alloy.
