AbstractThe phase stability of C-22 alloy (UNS #N06022) was studied by aging samples at 593, 649, 704 and 760°C for 2000 h (2.7 mo) and 16,000 h (1.8 yr). The tensile properties and the Charpy impact toughness of these samples were measured in the mill annealed condition as well as after aging. The microstructures of samples aged 16,000 hours were examined using scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Preliminary TEM results suggest that μse forms at all temperatures investigated. Discrete carbide particles in addition to a film with very uniform thickness which appears to be μ phase formed on grain boundaries in the sample aged at 593°C. The ordered Ni2(Cr, Mo) phase was also seen in this sample. At the higher aging temperatures, mainly μ phase forms covering all the grain boundaries and also distributed throughout the bulk. Although strength increased somewhat with aging. the ductility decreased due to the formation of these grain boundary precipitates and brittle intermetallics.

AbstractMicrostructural investigations of Co-5W-2.5Ta (at.%) and Co-4Mo-4.5Ta (at.%) ternary alloys were conducted. Fine coherent precipitates were observed in these alloys annealed at 800°C, and the crystal structures of precipitates (γ’) and matrix (γ) phase were identified as the L12 and A1 structure, respectively, by transmission electron microscopy. Cellular precipitation with a γ+χ(D019) lamellar structure also proceeded at grain boundaries, and the alloys aged for a longer time only showed the γ+χ two-phase microstructure instead of the γ’ phase. With aging at around 800°C, the peak hardness of these alloys with a γ+γ’ two phase structure was about 580 Hv.

7075 Alloy

Mechanical properties, microstructure and exfoliation corrosion (EXCO) behavior of spraying forming 7075 alloy underwent retrogression and re-aging (RRA) were studied by tensile test, transmission electron microscopy and EXCO test, and compared with those of T6 peak aging and T73 overaging treatments. The results show that after T6 treatment, abundance transgranular dispersive η phases make tensile strength of the alloy reach 760MPa, elongation and EXCO rating are only 4.8% and ED respectively by dint of continuous η phases at grain boundaries and narrow precipitate free zones (PFZ). After T73 treatment, interrupted η phases at grain boundaries and wide PFZ can improve elongation and EXCO resistance, but depressed volume fraction of coarsening transgranular η phases reduce tensile strength to 676MPa. After RRA treatment (120°C/24h + 200°C/10min + 120°C/24h), abundance transgranular dispersive η phases separate out again, η phases at grain boundaries interrupt, and PFZ widen slightly. Tensile strength, elongation and EXCO rating of alloy are 758MPa, 8.4% and EA respectively.

The Matrix

SiC/ZTM (zirconia-toughened mullite) nanocomposites were prepared by hot pressing mixtures of mullite gel, 2Y-TZP, and SiC nanopowders. The intimate mixing of Al2O3 and SiO2 components in the starting powder prevented intermediate ZrSiO4 phase formation during sintering. Addition of nano-sized SiC significantly retarded the matrix grain growth, making the microstructure much finer and more uniform. Transmission electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that many SiC nanoparticles were found in mullite and ZrO2 grains, and low-energy grain boundaries and mullite–liquid interfaces parallel to the {110} planes of rodlike mullite grains were formed. It is deduced that the formation of rodlike mullite grains is the result of the preferential development of these low-energy grain boundaries and mullite–liquid interfaces. The mechanical properties of the SiC/ZTM nanocomposite showed significant improvement over those of ZTM, and further enhancement in the mechanical properties was achieved by combinative strengthening with nano- and micro-sized SiC.

Alpha Beta

The mechanical properties of three titanium alloys (Ti-7Mo-3Al, Ti-7Mo- 3Cu and Ti-7Mo-3Ta) were evaluated as function of: 1) Solutionizing in the beta field and aging, 2) Thermal Mechanical Processing in the beta field and aging, 3) Solutionizing in the alpha + beta field and aging. The samples were isothermally aged in the temperature range 300° to 700*C for 4 to 24 hours, followed by a water quench. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray method were used to identify the phase formed. All three alloys solutionized at 1050°C (beta field) transformed to martensitic alpha (alpha prime) upon being water quenched. Despite this heavily strained alpha prime, which is characterized by microtwins the tensile strength of the as-quenched alloys is relatively low and the elongation is as high as 30%.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were utilized to study the microstructure and mechanical behavior of an Al-Cu-Mg alloy after tensile test at 125°C, 150°C, 175°C and 200 °C, respectively. The yield strength and ultimate tensile strength decreased with the increase of temperature, while the elongation increased firstly and then decreased. The S and S′ precipitate after tension at elevated temperatures. When the temperature was higher than 175°C, the precipitate coarsens rapidly. The alloys displayed a shear fracture features at elevated temperature. The larger S′ and S phase coarsened and dropped which forming crack in the grain boundaries and precipitate interfaces, resulting in the decrease of the elongation of the alloy.

In some applications such as automotive oxygen sensor, 5mol% Y2O3stabilized zirconia (5YSZ) is generally used because it has both excellent ionic conductivity and mechanical properties. The automotive oxygen sensor would experience a cyclic change from high temperature (engine running) environment to the low temperature damp environment (in the tail pipe when vehicle stops). The conductivity change with coupled conditions of thermal cycle and dump environment in the 5mol%Y2O3ZrO2(5YSZ) system was examined by XRD,Impedance spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (SEM) in this paper.

Polyacrylate microgel emulsion was prepared by emulsion polymerization using styrene, α-n-butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate as monomer, polyoxyethylene octylphenol ether (TX-30) and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) as combine emulsifier, divinyl benzene and ammonium persulfate (APS) as initiator，respectively. The prepared microgel was analyzed by a variety of measurment methods, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The effect of microgel on the rheological properties of adhesives, leveling, mechanical properties and pigment printing performance was studied. The rhelogy and the color fastness of the pigment printing binder of printed fabrics were measured by rheometer and friction color fastness test instruments, respectively. At the same time, the mechanical properties of the adhesive film was measured by strength tester. The results show that the thixotropy, leveling and mechanical properties of adhesive printing binder and pringting quality of coating fabrics were improved when the microgel was added.

Thermal Stability Of

Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy have been widely used in aerospace industry. However, there is still a lack of research on thermal stability of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy products. In the present work, an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy with T79 and T74 states was placed in the corresponding environment for thermal exposure experiments. Performance was measured by tensile strength, hardness and electrical conductivity. In this paper, precipitation observation was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). The precipitations of T79 state alloy were GPⅡ zone, η' phase and η phase while the ultimate tensile strength, hardness and electrical conductivity were 571MPa, 188.2HV and 22.2MS×m-1, respectively. The mechanical property of T79 state alloy decreased to 530MPa and 168.5HV after thermal exposure. The diameter of precipitate increased and the precipitations become η' and η phase at the same time. During the entire thermal exposure, T74 state alloy had the same mechanical property trend as T79 state alloy. The precipitate diameter also increased while the types of precipitate did not change under thermal exposure. The size of precipitates affected the choice of dislocation passing through the particles to affect the mechanical properties.
