Cast aluminium alloy 354 finds extensive applications in the automobile and aerospace industry due to its attractive combination of mechanical properties and excellent castability. A high fatigue strength value is desirable for these applications. The present study explores the possibility of improving the fatigue life of cast aluminium alloy by subjecting it to Hot Isostatic Pressing (commonly known as Hipping). A three parameter Weibull analysis of the fatigue test results was carried out for both Hipped and Non-Hipped samples. The Hipped samples showed an improved fatigue life compared to the Non-Hipped samples.

Tungsten carbide-cobalt (WC-Co) alloys have various mechanical properties according to their Co content and manufacturing method. High-strength materials such as WC-Co alloys are usually manufactured using various sintering methods. In this study, WC-Co was compared according to the Co content and manufacturing method using the sinter-hot isostatic pressing process. Furthermore, an additional test was performed to investigate the effect of post-hot isostatic pressing (HIP) treatment on the mechanical properties. To compare tensile strength, threaded end and shoulder end specimens are generally applied in axial tensile testing with hard metals. However, it is extremely difficult to shape WC-Co by machining. A tensile testing jig for a shoulder end specimen is, therefore, proposed. Tensile tests were conducted using the proposed jig, and microstructure, hardness, and impact tests were carried out to compare the mechanical properties. The microstructure evolution was obtained by decreasing the Co content and applying the HIP treatment, resulting in changes in Young’s modulus and strength. The results indicated that the proposed jig of the axial tensile test could be applied to the extremely hard WC-Co, and the mechanical properties of WC-Co could be modified by the Co content and HIP treatment control.

The effect of liquid hot isostatic pressing (LHIP) on microstructure and mechanical properties of a high-strength cast Al-6Zn-2Mg-0.5Fe-0.7Ni alloy was examined. LHIP eliminates shrinkage porosity that highly improves strength and fatigue limit. Yield stress (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) in T6 condition increased from 135 to 470 MPa and from 410 to 510 MPa, respectively. Endurance limit on the base of 107 cycles increased from 95 to 140 MPa. However, a small number of gas pores with an average size less than 2 μm retains. LHIP suppresses the crack initiation on coarse cavities. However, brittle intergranular fracture occurs in the hipped alloy through the breaking of eutectic phase Al9FeNi. As a result, elongation-to-failure was of 1.2% and the fatigue strength is equal to one of AA356.02 alloy subjected to LHIP.
