ABSTRACTA complex two phase γ-TiAl alloy, Ti-47Al-lCr-1Mn-2Ta-0.2Si (at.%) in a fully lamellar condition, has been creep tested at a stress of 200MPa and a temperature of 700°C. This simulates the in-service operating conditions for several potential gas turbine aero engine applications where creep resistance is a design limiting material property. The results have indicate that reduction in lamellae thickness and avoidance of feathery type microstructures contribute to improved creep resistance.

A process for the formation of low-resistance Ni–Ge–Au ohmic contacts to n+ GaAs has been refined using multivariable screening and response surface experiments. Samples from the refined, low-resistance process (which measure 0.05 ± 0.02 Ω · mm) and the unrefined, higher resistance process (0.17 ± 0.02 Ω · mm) were characterized using analytical electron microscopy (AEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling methods. This approach was used to identify microstructural differences and compare them with electrical resistance measurements. Analytical results of the unrefined ohmic process sample reveal a heterogeneous, multiphase microstructure with a rough alloy-GaAs interface. The sample from the refined ohmic process exhibits an alloy which is homogeneous, smooth, and has a fine-grained microstructure with two uniformly distributed phases. XPS analysis for the refined ohmic process sample indicates that the Ge content is relatively depleted in the alloy (relative to the deposited Ge amount) and enriched in the GaAs. This is not evidenced in the unrefined ohmic process sample. Our data lead us to conclude that a smooth, uniform, two-phase microstructure, coupled with a shift in Ge content from the post-alloy metal to the GaAs, is important in forming low-resistance ohmic contacts.

Superplastic Properties

The early view of superplasticity was that it was a phenomenon that could only be exhibited by fine grained, two phase alloys. This effectively ruled out most alloys that possessed attractive service properties. The first material to demonstrate good superplastic properties from a virtually single phase microstructure was the Al-6%Cu-0.5%Zr, AA 2004 but this was followed by superplastic versions of AA7475, AA8090 and AA5083. Superplasticity was also demonstrated in magnesium based alloys at an early stage. More recently different grain control additions, such as scandium or erbium have been investigated and it has also been demonstrated that, in certain circumstances, aluminium simply with the addition of a grain controlling element can exhibit good superplastic behaviour. While conventional wisdom teaches that large fabricating strains are required to confer good superplastic properties in the sheet product, recent results with both aluminium and magnesium alloys cast doubt on this belief. Although, for many years, strip casting has appeared to provide an attractive semi-fabricating route for superplastic sheet problems with centre line segregation in alloys with a wide freezing range have precluded its use. It has been demonstrated that recent developments in strip casting enable production of alloys with as wide a freezing range as AA5182 to be cast with a fine, equiaxed grain structure across the strip thickness. The paper will review the state of these various developments and their implications for the manufacture of superplastic sheet materials.

Instead of conventional grain-refinement treatments for improving the ductility of fully lamellar TiAl alloys, multiorientational, lamellar, subcolony refinement with good ductility has been achieved simply by using an electric-current pulse treatment. The microstructural refinement mechanism is attributed to the transformation on heating of γ laths in the prior large-grain lamellar structure to Widmanstätten α in several orientations, which on subsequent cooling forms lamellar structure colonies in multiple orientations. This kind of refined multiple-colony lamellar structure was found to enhance the ductility of the TiAl alloy.

Radial forging is a reliable way to produce Ti alloy rods without preliminary mechanical processing of their surface, which is in turn a mandatory procedure during almost each stage of the existing technology. In the present research, hot pressing and radial forging (RF) of the titanium-based Ti-3.3Al-5Mo-5V alloy were carried out to study the specifics of plasticized metal flow and microstructural evolution in different sections of the rods. The structural analysis of these rods was performed using metallography and X-ray diffraction techniques. The X-ray diffraction reveals the two-phase state of the alloy. The phase content in the alloy was shown to vary upon radial forging. Finally, radial forging was found to be a reliable method to achieve the uniform fine-grained structure and high quality of the rod surface.
