The nanograins (NG) on the top surface layer of alloy 690 were successfully prepared by ultrasonic surface rolling treatment (USRT). The average grain size of NG alloy 690 was 55 nm, and the thickness of the NG surface layer was about 1 μm. Meanwhile, the surface roughness was significantly reduced after surface nanocrystalliztion. The corrosion behavior of alloy 690 before and after USRT was studied in a secondary side environment containing chloride. Electrochemical corrosion experiments demonstrated that the passive film generated by USRT was denser than that formed on coarse-grained (CG) alloy 690. Pitting corrosion was prone to occur in grain boundaries of CG alloy 690, and the pits on the surface of NG alloy 690 were smaller than those generated on CG alloy 690 after 1000 h of an immersion experiment.

This article presents an investigation of the machining response of metallurgically and mechanically modified materials at the micro-scale. Tests were conducted that involved micro-milling slots in coarse-grained Cu99.9E with an average grain size of 30 µm and ultrafine-grained Cu99.9E with an average grain size of 200 nm, produced by equal channel angular pressing. A new method based on atomic force microscope measurements is proposed for assessing the effects of material homogeneity changes on the minimum chip thickness required for a robust micro-cutting process with a minimum surface roughness. The investigation has shown that by refining the material microstructure the minimum chip thickness can be reduced and a high surface finish can be obtained. Also, it was concluded that material homogeneity improvements lead to a reduction in surface roughness and surface defects in micro-cutting.

The two Cu60Ni20Cr20alloys with the different grain size were prepared by conventional casting (CA) and mechanical alloying (MA) through hot pressing. Effect of the grain size on electrochemical corrosion behavior of the two Cu60Ni20Cr20 alloys was also studied in solutions containing chloride ions. Results show that the free corrosion potentials of the two alloys move toward to negative values, corrosion current densities increase and therefore corrosion rates become faster with the increment of chloride ion concentrations. CACu60Ni20Cr20alloy and MACu60Ni20Cr20alloy have passive phenomena in 0.05mol/L Na2SO4 neutral solution, but passive phenomena become weak or disappear when the chloride ions are added. Corrosion rates of the nanocrystalline MACu60Ni20Cr20alloy become slower than those of the coarse grained CACu60Ni20Cr20alloy in solutions containing the same chloride ion concentrations because MACu60Ni20Cr20alloy is able to produce large concentrations of grain boundaries and passive elements is able to diffuse quickly to form the protective film.

The microstructure of samples before and after a high current density electropulsing treatment was characterized by using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. It has been found that in the coarse-grained Cu–Zn alloy subjected to the electropulsing treatment, two nanophases were formed, α–Cu(Zn) and β′–(CuZn), the average grain size of which is about 11 nm. A possible mechanism for the formation of nanophases was proposed. The experimental results indicated that electropulsing, as an instantaneous high-energy input, plays an important role in the nonequilibrium microstructural changes in materials and serves as a potential processing approach to synthesize nanostructured materials.

A nanostructured surface layer was obtained on the surface of Zr-4 by surface mechanical attrition treatment(SMAT). The structure and the properties of the SMAT sample were analyzed by means of the optical microscope, hardness and polarization curve testing. The results show that, when processing time for 5min, the average grain sizes on the surface layer can be refined to 23nm. The average grain size by SMAT-ed for 15min is 20nm, which is the smallest. The microhardness have a significant increase, the surface roughness also increase, and the corrosion resistance reduce in 1mol H2SO4solution.

A nanostructure surface layer was produced on low carbon steel and commercially pure titanium using high-speed rotating wire-wheel deformation (HRWD). The microstructural features of the surface layer were systematically characterized by cross-sectional optical microcopy observations, transmission electron microscopy, and microhadness measurement was conducted along the depth from top surface layer to matrix of the samples. The results show that nearly equiaxed nanocrystalline layer is formed on the surface of the low carbon steel and pure titanium, in which the average grain size is about 8 nm and 15 nm respectively. The microhardness of the top surface is enhanced obviously compared with that of the coarse-grained matrix.

The paper presents the results of investigations on the effect of the depth of concurrent grinding of flat surfaces on the roughness and nano-hardness of the surface layer of C45 steel with a ferritic-pearlitic structure and average grain size of 20 μm. A significant increase in the hardness of the surface layer of the workpiece was obtained for all grinding depths.

A nanograined (NG) layer with an average grain size of less than 100 nm has been successfully prepared on a Ti–6Al–4V sheet surface by sliding friction treatment (SFT). The electrochemical corrosion/passive behavior and mechanical properties of an NG Ti–6Al–4V sheet were examined in this study. A bi-layer passive film that consisted of an outer TiO2-rich layer and an inner Al2O3-rich layer was formed on either an NG or coarse-grained (CG) surface. The improved corrosion was mainly caused by the enhanced stability and thickness of the passive layer. Tensile experiments were carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties at ambient temperature. The NG Ti–6Al–4V sample exhibited the high yield strength (956 MPa) with a moderate elongation of 8%. These superior comprehensive properties demonstrated its potential as a biomedical material.

This paper discussed the polishing characteristic of single crystal sapphire (0001) when using 100°C vapor as polishing liquid and cedar wood as polishing pad. Surface roughness and scratch were compared before and after hydration polishing process. For 20 hours hydration polishing, both XRD and surface texture show that sapphire surface was changed in micro-structure and texture, even with minor scratch on the hydration polished surface, surface roughness could be decreased to Rt6.74 in X direction and Rt7.64nm in Y direction, it is about 2 nm surface layer was removed during hydration polishing.

The corrosion behavior of graphite-like carbon (GLC) coating in sea water was studied and yttrium and cerium were doped into it by using mosaic in the target of magnetron sputtering process to improve its corrosion resistance. The result shows that the GLC coating characterizes typical underfilm electrochemical corrosion in sea water. Yttrium added in chromium interlayer or yttrium and cerium added in the surface layer of the GLC coating can apparently improve the microstructure result in significantly decrease the corrosive current density. As the modifications of Y in interlayer and Y, Ce and Ta in top layer are composed together to form complex GLC coating, the wear resistance and the antifriction is dramatically improved, the corrosive current density is only one-twenty fourth of that of the commercial C/Cr GLC coating.
