The tensile strength of single water-sized E-glass fibres that were thermally conditioned, either in air or under vacuum, was investigated. The vacuum removed water from the conditioning atmosphere, as well as the fibre surfaces, at room temperature but retained tensile strength of fibres treated in the absence of water were not significantly different from those thermally conditioned in a standard air furnace. The results suggest that water, either in the treatment atmosphere or on the surface of the fibres, is not a significant factor in fundamental glass fibre strength loss at an elevated temperature. It may, therefore, be necessary to consider alternative theories to explain this strength loss.

The effects of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), further heat treatment and rolling on the structure and room temperature mechanical properties of the commercial aluminum alloys 6061 (Al-0.9Mg-0.7Si) and 1560 (Al-6.5Mg-0.6Mn) were investigated. It has been shown that the strength of the alloys after ECAP is higher than that achieved after conventional processing. Prior ECAP solution treatment and post-ECAP ageing can additionally increase the strength of the 6061 alloy. Under optimal ageing conditions a yield strength (YS) of 434 MPa and am ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 470 MPa were obtained for the alloy. Additional cold rolling leads to a YS and UTS of 475 and 500 MPa with 8% elongation. It was found that the post-ECAP isothermal rolling of the 1560 alloy resulted in the formation of a nano-fibred structure and a tensile strength (YS = 540 MPa and UTS = 635 MPa) that has never previously been observed in commercial non-heat treatable alloys.

Deformational characteristics of laminates of unidirectionally arranged glass fibres and epoxy resin under plane stress are shown to correspond very closely under uniaxial tension and, to a lesser extent, under shear to the theroetical pattern of stiffness of an orthotropic material. The anisotropy in stiffness is also shown to be accompanied by an even greater degree of anisotropy in tensile strength.

AZ61 alloy is an important magnesium (Mg) alloy which can be rolled at elevated temperature. However, the insufficient ductility of as-extruded alloys limits their design and applications. Pb or Pb+Sn additions lead to a high ductility (~18% at room temperature) and good tensile strength (~250 MPa). This paper discusses the mechanism of property enhancement and the influence of Pb addition on the solidification process of AZ61 alloy.

The composites of Ni-W-Cr-Fe-Cu-MoS2-Graphite with nano-MoS2 were prepared by powder metallurgy. Its tribological properties were investigated using the UTM-2 Nano+Micro Tribometer from room temperature to 600°C. The effects of amount of MoS2 and Ni-W-Cr prealloy powder, load, and temperature on the tribological properties were investigated and discussed. The results indicated that the addition of 43~45wt.% Ni-W-Cr prealloy powder had a strengthening effect on the hardness, anti-press and tensile strength. The tensile strength of the composite decreases with the addition of Nano-MoS2 and graphite, and the friction coefficient decrease with increase of the additives over the wide temperature range of 25°C∼600°C. The friction coefficients and wear rates of the composites reach the optimization value at 2.5wt.% MoS2,While its wear rates increase with the increasing temperature and load.

Three different aging treatments including single-aging, delayed-aging, and pre-aging were carried out on 6082 extruded profiles after solution heat treatment, then their hardness, tensile strength, and microstructure were tested. The experimental results reveal that the properties and microstructure changes during single-aging. Based on this, the negative effects of room temperature delay and the results of short-term pre-aging treatments used in the experiment to improve this phenomenon have been concluded.

ABSTRACTHigh-energy (3 MeV) Si implantations were performed in InP:Fe at an elevated temperature of 200 °C for fluences 8×1014, 2×1015, and 5×1015 cm“2. For the 8×1014 cm−2 fluence, an activation of 82 %, carrier mobility of 1200 cm2/V-s, a peak carrier concentration of 9×1018 cm−3, and lattice quality comparable to that of virgin crystal were obtained. No amorphization takes place for any of the fluences used. Boron compensation implantations were performed in InP:Sn (n sime 2×1018 cm3) at room temperature in the energy range 1 to 5 MeV and fluence range 1011 to 1015 cm−2. After heat treatment, maximum resistivity of the order of 106 Ω-cm was obtained in B implanted InP.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of the as-cast Zn-25Al-5Mg-2.5Si-xGd alloys at room and elevated temperature have been investigated in this work. The results show that the addition of element Gd leads to the grain refining and the formation of Al3Gd phase and GdZn12 phase in the microstructure, and the mechanical properties of the alloys rise at first and then drop with the Gd content increasing. When Gd content is 0.8wt.%, the optimization of microstructure and mechanical properties is obtained. The alloy can be increased by 13.9%, 37.7% and 45.6% in tensile strength and be increased by 13.4%, 76.9% and 78.2% in hardness at room temperature, 100°C and 180°C, respectively.

Nd, Y and Ca containing Mg-Zn-Zr alloys are produced by electromagnetic direct-chilling casting process, and extruded at a temperature of 643K with two extrusion ratios of 38:1 and 22:1, respectively. The grain size is markedly reduced from 80µm in as-cast alloy to 2~5µm in as-extruded alloy due to dynamic recrystallization, and lamellar eutectics at grain boundaries in as-cast alloy are broken up and fine precipitates in the matrix come forth during hot extrusions. Mechanical properties of the alloys are measured by tensile test from room temperature to 523K. Nd, Y and Ca are favorable to the strength of the hot-extruded alloy, especially the elevated-temperature strength, which is above 200MPa in ultimate tensile strength at 523K.

Achieving a good match between strength and conductivity is a challenge of the development of the high-performance Cu-Cr-Nb alloy for aerospace and fusion energy. The effect of heat treatment on Cr2Nb phase, strength and conductivity of spark plasma sintered (SPSed) Cu-2Cr-1Nb (at%) alloy was investigated. The results illustrated that Cr2Nb phase of Cu-2Cr-1Nb alloy can be regulated by heat treatment, multi-scale Cr2Nb phase with sizes of 0.10–0.50 μm, 30–100 nm and less than 30 nm was obtained, and the strength and conductivity were significantly increased after heat treatment at 500 °C for 2 h, the room temperature tensile strength and conductivity were 332 MPa and 86.7% IACS, 2.5% and 34.8% higher than those of as-SPSed alloy; the tensile strength at 700 °C was 76 MPa. Increasing heat treatment temperature and time, the tensile strength of the alloy was reduced by 1.5%, 4.3% and 12.3% after heat treatment at 500 °C, 700 °C and 950 °C for 72 h. The good match between strength and conductivity of Cu-Cr-Nb alloy was obtained by reducing the content of alloying elements (Cr and Nb) and microstructure regulation. This approach can be used to prepare structural/functional materials with excellent strength and conductivity.

Tensile properties of rheo-cast 7075-T6 Al alloy produced by Gas Induced Semi-Solid (GISS) technique was investigated as a function of temperatures from 25°C to 250 °C in order to assess the potent of high temperature applications. It was found that the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the alloy decreased steadily with increasing temperature. There was loss in strength of about 33% at 200°C and 46% at 250 °C comparing to the strength at room temperature. At T = 250 °C, the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the rheo-cast 7075-T6 Al alloy were higher than those of the wrought 7075-T651 Al alloy.
