AbstractCobalt-modified NiAl alloys are being studied for their potential for room temperature ductility and toughness. An alloy of Ni - 29.3 a/o Al - 36.7 a/o Co has shown improved toughness and ductility with respect to binary NiAl alloys due in part to a stress-induced martensitic transformation. Furthermore, the cobalt additions have altered the slip behavior to {110}<111> type from {110} <001> for binary NiAl alloys. Hafnium was added to improve the alloy's relatively poor creep resistance and high temperature strength. Hf was found to be insoluble in the NiAlCo alloy and formed precipitates with a hexagonal structure. The Hfmodified alloy had improved high temperature strength. In addition, the Hf apparently changed the creep mechanism resulting in poorer creep resistance at low temperatures, but improved creep resistance at higher stresses and temperatures.

Studies have been conducted as to the effect of Cu, Mn, Fe concentration changes in Al-Cu-Mn-Fe-Ti alloy, the conditions of thermal and deformational treatment of ingots and extruded rods 40 mm in diameter on the microstructure, phase composition and mechanical properties. It has been determined that changing Al-6.3Cu-0.3Mn-0.17Fe-0.15Ti alloy to Al-6.5Cu-0.7Mn-0.11Fe-0.15Ti causes an increase in the strength characteristics of extruded rods at the room temperature both after molding and in tempered and aged conditions, irrespective of the conditions of thermal treatment of the initial ingot (low-temperature annealing 420 °С for 2 h, or high-temperature annealing at 530 °С for 12 h). Increasing the extruding temperature from 330 to 480 °С, along with increasing Cu, Mn and decreasing Fe in the alloy Al-Cu-Mn-Ti, is accompanied by the increased level of ultimate strength in a quenched condition by 25% to 410 MPa, irrespective of the annealing conditions of the original ingot. An opportunity to apply the Al-6.3Cu-0.3Mn-0.17Fe-0.15Ti alloy with low-temperature annealing at 420 °С for 2 h and the molding temperature of 330 °С has been found to produce rods where, in the condition of full thermal treatment (tempering at 535 °С + aging at 200 °С for 8 hours), a structure is formed that ensures satisfactory characteristics of high temperature strength by resisting to fracture for more than 100 hours at 300 °С and 70 MPa.

The mechanical properties of nickel beryllide, NiBe, have been investigated in the temperature range 20–820 °C. The room temperature properties were studied using tension, bending, and compression tests, while the elevated temperature properties were characterized in compression only. NiBe exhibits some ductility at room temperature; the strains to failure in tension and compression are 1.3% and 13%, respectively. Fracture is controlled primarily by the cohesive strength of grain boundaries. At high temperatures, NiBe is readily deformable—strains in excess of 30% can be achieved at temperatures as low as 400 °C. Strain hardening rates are high, and the flow stress decreases monotonically with temperature. The high temperature strength of NiBe is as good or better than that of NiAl, but not quite as good as CoAl.

Titanium (Ti) alloys are widely used in aerospace industries successfully up to 600°C. Increasing the operating temperature and performance of these alloys would be very useful for fuel economy. Numerous numbers of research works has been focused on the improvement of the high temperature performances of Ti alloys. It has been well known that Zirconium (Zr) is one of the important solid-solution strengthener in Ti-alloys. In the present study, the effect of Zr addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the near–α Ti-Al-Zr-Sn based alloys has been investigated.The compression test results showed that Zr addition significantly improves both room temperature and high temperature strength. The results obtained were explained based on the microstructural observation, room temperature and high temperature compressive tests.

ABSTRACTAs part of a study to assess NiAl-based composites as potential high-temperature structural materials, the mechanical properties of polycrystalline NiAl reinforced with 30 vol.% continuous single crystal Al2O3 fibers were investigated. Composites were fabricated with either a strong or weak bond between the NiAl matrix and Al2O3 fibers. The effect of interfacial bond strength on bending and tensile properties, thermal cycling response, and cyclic oxidation resistance was examined. Weakly-bonded fibers increased room-temperature toughness of the composite over that of the matrix material but provided no strengthening at high temperatures. With effective load transfer, either by the presence of a strong interfacial bond or by remotely applied clamping loads, Al2O3 fibers increased the high-temperature strength of NiAl but reduced the strain to failure of the composite compared to the monolithic material. Thermal cycling of the weakly-bonded material had no adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the composite. Conversely, because of the thermal expansion mismatch between the matrix and fibers, the presence of a strong interfacial bond generated residual stresses in the composite that lead to matrix cracking. Although undesirable under thermal cycling conditions, a strong interfacial bond was a requirement for achieving good cyclic oxidation resistance in the composite. In addition to the interfacial characterization, compression creep and room temperature fatigue tests were conducted on weakly-bonded NiAl/Al2O3 composites to further evaluate the potential of this system. These results demonstrated that the use of A12O3 fibers was successful in improving both creep and fatigue resistance.

AbstractSubstantial improvements have been reported in high temperature strength and creep resistance, and room temperature fracture toughness of molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) reinforced with ductile or brittle reinforcements. The influence of Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) process parameters on the mechanical properties of MoSi2 based alloys was studied. Monolithic MoSi2 powder and MoSi2 powder blended with either niobium powder or silicon carbide whisker reinforcements were consolidated by HIP at 1200 − 1400°C, 207 MPa, and 1 - 4 hrs. The HIP'ed compacts were characterized for compression strength and creep resistance at 1100-1300°C. Fracture toughness was measured on single edge notched rectangular specimens at room temperature. Mechanical properties were correlated with post-HIP microstructural features.

ZrB2-SiC-B4C is sintered at 1700°C by spark plasma sintering process. The effect of B4C content on the mechanical properties and microstructure of ZrB2-SiC based ceramics is studied. The results show that, with the content of B4C increases, the relative density and room-temperature strength decrease in the ZrB2-SiC-B4C composite. The fracture toughness rises at first and then falls down. The high temperature strength increases.

AbstractSince the ternary intermetallic compound Co3(Al,W) with the L12 structure was discovered, two-phase Co-base alloys composed of the γ-Co solid-solution phase and the γ'-Co3(Al,W) phase as a strengthening phase have been investigated as promising high-temperature materials. Some Co-base alloys have been reported to exhibit high-temperature strength greater than those of conventional Ni-base superalloys. Although the excellent high-temperature physical properties of the Co-based alloys are considered to result from the phase stability and strength of Co3(Al,W), the pristine physical properties of Co3(Al,W) have not been fully understood, supposedly due to the difficulties in obtaining single-phase Co3(Al,W). In the present study, we examine the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure of alloys with compositions close to single-phase Co3(Al,W) as well as their mechanical properties, e.g. elastic modulus, thermal expansion, etc., in hope of deriving the pristine properties of the Co3(Al,W) phase. A single crystal with the composition of Co-10Al-11W grown by floating-zone melting exhibits a thermal expansion coefficient of 10×10-6 K-1 at room temperature, which is virtually identical to those of the commercial Ni-base superalloys. However, it increases with increasing temperature followed by a discontinuity at around 1000°C, inferring the phase transformation from γ' to γ. The investigated thermal expansion behavior indicates that the lattice mismatch between the γ' and γ phases is reversed from positive at room temperature to negative at high temperatures above around 500°C. The results of elastic property measurement and environmental embrittlement investigation of polycrystalline Co3(Al,W) will also be presented.
