In the joint with eutectic Sn-Pb solder and a lead-free Ni/Pd/Au electrode, degradation of mechanical properties of the solder due to dissolution of Au and Pd into the solder would be anxious. In this study, the effect of aging was investigated on tensile properties and microstructures of the eutectic Sn-Pb solder with small amounts of Au and Pd added. In as-cast solders with both Au and Pd added, the tensile strength increases with increasing contents of Au and Pd. A similar tendency was observed after aging at 100°C for 1000 h. The effect of aging on elongation was relatively small and elongation degraded when brittle (Pd,Au)Sn4 phases formed in the solder. In solders with Au ranging from 1 to 5 mass%, regardless of aging conditions investigated, the tensile strength is stable at approximately 50 MPa and 45 MPa before and after aging, respectively. The effect of aging on improvement of elongation was negligible and elongation degraded when rod shaped AuSn4 formed in the solder. On the basis of the result of microstructural observation, it was clarified that the strengthening by dispersion of (Pd,Au)Sn4 phases is superior to softening by microstructure coarsening upon aging when the contents of Au and Pd are 2 mass% and 1 mass% or above, respectively.

In this chapter, tensile properties of different grades of post-consumer recycled (PCR) polycarbonate (PC) plastics have been compared with conventional or virgin PC before and after different aging conditions. 50 and 75% recycled PCs showed comparable yield strength (∼57 MPa), maximum tensile strength (∼70 MPa) and maximum strain (∼190–200%) before aging, when compared to virgin PC of same melt flow rate (MFR of ∼10 g/10 min). From the fractography analysis (optical and scanning electron microscopy) of the both virgin and 50% recycled PC, it is evident that the fracture morphologies are very similar and they are indicative of ductile failure. It is observed that with the presence of temperature and humidity (60°C 90% RH) aging, tensile strength starts to drop over time but most importantly both 50% and 75% PCR grades showed similar aging behavior compared to virgin PC (10–13% strength degradation after 500 hours of aging). Reliability modelling showed comparable B10, Weibull Alpha and Weibull Beta values between Virgin PC and PCR grades after different aging conditions. Fractography analysis of fresh and aged 75% PCR also showed ductile features.

The present study focuses on the effect of 1% Zr addition on the microstructure, tensile properties and superplasticity of a forged SP700 alloy. The results demonstrated that Zr has a significant effect on inhibiting the microstructural segregation and increasing the volume fraction of β-phase in the forged SP700 alloy. After annealing at 820 °C for 1 h and aging at 500 °C for 6 h, the SP700 alloy with 1% Zr showed a completely globular and fine microstructure. The yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and tensile elongation of the alloy with optimized microstructure were 1185 MPa, 1296 MPa and 10%, respectively. The superplastic deformation was performed at 750 °C with an elongation of 1248%. The improvement of tensile properties and superplasticity of the forged SP700 alloy by Zr addition was mainly attributed to the uniform and fine globular microstructures.

The significance of composite materials and their applications are mainly due to their good properties. This imposes the need for their recycling, thus extending their lifetime. Once used composite material will be disposed as a waste at the end of it service life. After recycling, this kind of waste can be used as raw materials for the production of same material, which raises their applicability. This indicates a great importance of recycling as a method of the renowal of composite materials. This study represents a contribution to the field of mechanical properties of the recycled composite materials. The tension mechanical properties (tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) of once used and disposed glass-epoxy composite material were compared before and after the recycling. The obtained results from mechanical tests confirmed that the applied recycling method was suitable for glass-epoxy composite materials. In respect to the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity it can be further assessed the possibility of use of recycled glass-epoxy composite materials.

Traditional lead brass is gradually prevented from application by many countries’ governments because lead does harm to human health and pollutes the environment. New types of environment-friendly lead-free brass with favorable machinability are urgently demanded in the electrical, electronics and plumping fields. Lead-free Mg-Sb brass was fabricated in present. Experimental results showed that when the content of Mg is 1.0wt%, Sb is 0.8wt% and Cu is 58.0~59.0wt%, the alloy’s mechanical properties and machinability are favorable for industry application. With the increase of the content of Sb, the machinability increased, while the mechanical properties decreased. Lots of Cu2Mg and Cu9Sb2 particles on the order of microns exist in the inner-grain and grain boundaries. These particles improve the machinability, however, lower the tensile strength and the elongation. A three-way pipe joint was successfully punched with the fabricated Mg-Sb brass bar, and this demonstrated that the fabricated Mg-Sb brass possesses favorable hot working property.

The microstructure, melting point, and mechanical properties of Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al–XAg lead-free solders were investigated. The Ag content of the solders investigated was 0–3 wt.%. The results indicate that the AgZn3 and Ag5Zn8 compounds are formed at the addition of Ag to Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al solders. The adding of Ag also results in the formation of hypoeutectic structure, increasing the melting point of the solders and decreasing the ductility. Results of thermal analysis reveal that the Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al–XAg solder has eutectic temperature at 198 °C when the addition of Ag is 0.5 wt.%. The eutectic solder exhibits greater tensile strength and higher ductility than the 63–Sn–37Pb solder.

Researches of spray pure polyurea technology for hydraulic concrete protection in water conservancy facilities to ensure long term security operation has a great significance. With an emphasis upon mechanical properties and surface morphology of spray pure polyurea coatings comparing before and after aging by means of the artificial accelerated xenon arc lamp(AAXAL) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) in this paper. Besides, the dry-wet circulation resistance performance of coatings wre analyzed through experiment. It is shown that tensile strength, elongation at break and tear strength of coatings increased by 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.7% respectively after AAXAL aging 720h. By contrast, after aging 3000h the results were 22.6%, 3.8% and 17.4% respectively, the tendency of increasing at first and then reducing can be obtained. The mechanical properties reduced slightly for adding defects of coating surface after aging, however, the resistance performance of ultraviolet ray was excellent. The similar development trend of mechanical properties were gained from dry-wet circulation experiment. After aging 200 cycles, the tensile strength and tear strength descended by 4.1% and 1.7% severally but the elongation at break ascended by 5.0%. In a word, it is suggested that the aging of coatings were negligible in dry-wet circulation in short term.

Nanocellulose (NCC) is incorporated into nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) latex with the composition 0 to 5 phr using dipping method. Mechanical properties of NBR/NCC composites using tensile test was used to characterize their mechanical performance and the fracture surfaces post tensile test were studied. The tensile strength of NBR/NCC composites increase significantly with the addition of nanocellulose. This could be anticipated due to the presence of Van der Waals interaction between hydrophilic natures of nanocellulose with hydrophobic of NBR consequently limits the tearing propagation. The result was supported with the fracture surfaces morphology viewed under Fourier Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM).
