Influences of annealing temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo-La2O3

Influences of annealing temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo-La₂O₃ were investigated. Effects of annealing temperature on tensile properties, fracture toughness, and microhardness are discussed. Microstructure and fracture morphology of Mo alloys are observed by optical microscope, SEM, and TEM. The results indicate that grain size increased while tensile strength, fracture toughness, and microhardness decreased with increasing annealing temperature. Larger La₂O₃ particles are located at grain boundaries or sub-boundaries, while the majority of smaller La₂O₃ particles are located within the grain. The strengthening effect is quantitatively assessed, which yielded a predicted yield strength in good agreement with measurements.     

Effect of Bi2O3 on structure and wetting studies of Bi2O3-ZnO-B2O3 glasses

Glasses with different Bi₂O₃ contents (37-42 mol%) have been prepared by conventional melt quench technique. The IR and Raman studies indicate that these glasses are made up of [BiO₆], [BiO₃], [BO₃] and [BO₄] basic structural units. The vibrations of [BiO₃] and [BO₃] become stronger as the content of Bi₂O₃ increases, which makes glass structure loosened. Viscosity of the glasses was measured by using a Rheotronic III paralleled plate rheometry, which shows that the viscosity of glass samples decreased when the content of Bi₂O₃ increased at the same temperature (400-460 °C). The temperature range which suits for glasses sealing was calculated by using the approximation of Arrhenian behaviour. The wetting performance of Bi₂O₃-ZnO-B₂O₃ glasses was described by using high-temperature microscope, which also proves that the structure of investigated Bi₂O₃-ZnO-B₂O₃ glasses become loosened due to the increasing of the content of Bi₂O₃.

The synergistic ability of Al2O3 nanoparticles to enhance mechanical response of hybrid alloy AZ31/AZ91

AZ31/AZ91 hybrid alloy nanocomposite containing Al₂O₃ nanoparticle reinforcement was fabricated using solidification processing followed by hot extrusion. The nanocomposite exhibited similar grain size to the monolithic hybrid alloy, reasonable Al₂O₃ nanoparticle distribution, non-dominant (0 0 0 2) texture in the longitudinal direction, and 25% higher hardness than the monolithic hybrid alloy. Compared to the monolithic hybrid alloy (in tension), the nanocomposite synergistically exhibited higher 0.2%TYS, UTS, failure strain and work of fracture (WOF) (+12%, +7%, +99% and +108%, respectively). Compared to the monolithic hybrid alloy (in compression), the nanocomposite exhibited higher 0.2%CYS and UCS, and lower failure strain and WOF (+5%, +3%, −7% and −7%, respectively). The beneficial effects of Al₂O₃ nanoparticle addition on the enhancement of tensile and compressive properties of AZ31/AZ91 hybrid alloy are investigated in this paper.

Competition between interfacial and interlayer exchange couplings in Co/Cr2O3/Fe trilayers

The temperature dependence of competition between interlayer and interfacial couplings is observed at different temperatures in Co (3 nm)/Cr₂O₃ (t)/Fe (10 nm) trilayers with t = 3 nm, 6 nm, 15 nm and 25 nm, respectively. The interlayer coupling enhances and the interfacial coupling weakens with increasing temperature. The balanceable temperature between interfacial and interlayer couplings shifts to low temperatures with increasing spacer thickness. Furthermore, the competition between interfacial and interlayer couplings greatly affects the magnetotransport properties of the trilayers. The negative magnetoresistance and the minimum resistance corresponding to balanceable temperature are found in trilayers.     

Oxidation behavior of Ti3AlC2 at 1000-1400 °C in air

The isothermal oxidation behavior of bulk Ti₃AlC₂ has been investigated at 1000-1400 °C in air for exposure times up to 20 h by means of TGA, XRD, SEM and EDS. It has been demonstrated that Ti₃AlC₂ has excellent oxidation resistance. The oxidation of Ti₃AlC₂ generally followed a parabolic rate law with parabolic rate constants, k_p that increased from 4.1×10⁻¹¹ to 1.7×10⁻⁸ kg² m⁻⁴ s⁻¹ as the temperature increased from 1000 to 1400 °C. The scales formed at temperatures below 1300 °C were dense, adherent, resistant to cyclic oxidation and layered. The inner layer of these scales formed at temperatures below 1300 °C was continuous α-Al₂O₃. The outer layer changed from rutile TiO₂ at temperatures below 1200 °C to a mixture of Al₂TiO₅ and TiO₂ at 1300 °C. In the samples oxidized at 1400 °C, the scale consisted of a mixture of Al₂TiO₅ and, predominantly, α-Al₂O₃, while the adhesion of the scales to the substrates was less than that at the lower temperatures. Effect of carbon monoxide at scale/substrate was involved in the formation of the continuous Al₂O₃ layers.

The mechanical properties of single phase γ Ti47Al51Mn2 polycrystals

The mechanical properties of polycrystalline samples of the single phase γ-Ti₄₇Al₅₁Mn₂ alloy have been studied during compression tests in a wide range of temperatures (120–1270 K). The flow stress and the work hardening rate are measured during imposed strain rate tests, while the strain rate sensitivity of the stress is examined using both strain rate jumps and stress relaxation experiments. From the temperature, strain and stress dependence of these parameters, it is shown that the investigated temperature domain can be divided into three régimes corresponding to different deformation mechanisms. The results are compared to the data available in the literature and are found to be in good agreement with the dislocation structures and dislocation motion mechanisms that we have previously reported.     

Oxidation behavior of micro-sized Al2O3–TiC–Co composites prepared from cobalt-coated powders

The oxidation behavior of hot-pressed Al₂O₃–TiC–Co composites prepared from cobalt-coated powders has been studied in air in the temperature range from 200 °C to 1000 °C for 25 h. The oxidation resistance of Al₂O₃–TiC–Co composites increases with the increase of sintering temperature at 800 °C and 1000 °C. The oxidation surfaces were studied by XRD and SEM. The oxidation kinetics of Al₂O₃–TiC–Co composites follows a rate that is faster than the parabolic-rate law at 800 °C and 1000 °C. The mechanism of oxidation has been analyzed using thermodynamic and kinetic considerations.     

A literature review and test: Structure and physicochemical properties of spinel LiMn2O4 synthesized by different temperatures for lithium ion battery

A series of LiMn₂O₄ spinel was prepared by adipic acid-assisted sol–gel method at different temperatures. The structure and physicochemical properties of spinel LiMn₂O₄ synthesized by different temperatures were investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetery (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron micrographs (SEM), inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS), galvanostatic charge–discharge test, and cyclic voltammetry (CV), respectively. TG–DTA shows that the weight loss occurs in four temperature regions during the synthesis of LiMn₂O₄. XRD indicates that the sintering temperature affects the formation of spinel phase, and prominent LiMn₂O₄ spinel powder with smaller atom location confusion forms about 800 °C. XPS reveals that the manganese oxidation state in spinel lithium manganese oxide synthesized at different temperatures is between +3 and +4. SEM shows that LiMn₂O₄ spinel synthesized at 800 °C has the uniform, nearly cubic structure morphology with narrow size distribution. ICP-MS indicates that the average chemical valence of Mn element of LiMn₂O₄ synthesized at 800 °C is the most close to 3.5 among the samples synthesized at different temperatures. CV illustrates that the LiMn₂O₄ synthesized at 800 °C has the best electrochemical activity. Charge–discharge test explains that the capacity retention sintered at 350, 700 and 800 °C over the first 50 cycles is 93.6%, 86.1% and 85.2%, respectively, but the discharge capacity at the 50th cycle is 82.2, 104.8 and 110.8 mAh g⁻¹, respectively.     

Oxidation behaviour of Ti-46.7Al-1.9W-0.5Si in air and Ar-20%O2 between 750 and 950 °C

The oxidation behaviour of an intermetallic alloy, Ti-46.7Al-1.9W-0.5Si, was studied in air and Ar-20%O₂ atmospheres at 750, 850 and 950 °C. Oxidation of the alloy followed a parabolic rate law at low temperature (750 °C) in both environments. The alloy oxidised parabolically in air and at a slower rate in Ar-20%O₂ at 850 °C. Following a parabolic oxidation for a relatively short exposure period (72 h) at 950 °C, the oxidation rate was reduced after prolonged exposure (up to 240 h) in air. The alloy oxidised in a slower manner in the Ar-20%O₂ atmosphere at 950 °C. Higher oxidation rates were observed in air than in Ar-20%O₂ at all three experimental temperatures. Multi-layered scales developed in both environments. The scale formed in air consisted of TiO₂/Al₂O₃/TiO₂/TiN/TiAl₂ layers, ranging from the surface to the substrate—whilst the scale developed in the Ar-20%O₂ atmosphere comprised of the sequence TiO₂/Al₂O₃/TiO₂/Al₂O₃/Ti₃Al/substrate. The two layers of Al₂O₃ in Ar-20%O₂ were more effective in providing protection of the substrate against high temperature corrosion than the single layer of Al₂O₃ formed in air.     

Effects of K2O-Li2O doping on surface and catalytic properties of Fe2O3/Cr2O3 system

The effects of K₂O and Li₂O-doping (0.5, 0.75 and 1.5 mol%) of Fe₂O₃/Cr₂O₃ system on its surface and the catalytic properties were investigated. Pure and differently doped solids were calcined in air at 400-600 °C. The formula of the un-doped calcined solid was 0.85Fe₂O₃:0.15Cr₂O₃. The techniques employed were TGA, DTA, XRD, N₂ adsorption at −196 °C and catalytic oxidation of CO oxidation by O₂ at 200-300 °C. The results revealed that DTA curves of pure mixed solids consisted of one endothermic peak and two exothermic peaks. Pure and doped mixed solids calcined at 400 °C are amorphous in nature and turned to α-Fe₂O₃ upon heating at 500 and 600 °C. K₂O and Li₂O doping conducted at 500 or 600 °C modified the degree of crystallinity and crystallite size of all phases present which consisted of a mixture of nanocrystalline α- and γ-Fe₂O₃ together with K₂FeO₄ and LiFe₅O₈ phases. However, the heavily Li₂O-doped sample consisted only of LiFe₅O₈ phase. The specific surface area of the system investigated decreased to an extent proportional to the amount of K₂O and Li₂O added. On the other hand, the catalytic activity was found to increase by increasing the amount of K₂O and Li₂O added. The maximum increase in the catalytic activity, expressed as the reaction rate constant (k) measured at 200 °C, attained 30.8% and 26.5% for K₂O and Li₂O doping, respectively. The doping process did not modify the activation energy of the catalyzed reaction but rather increased the concentration of the active sites without changing their energetic nature.     

High temperature deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of wrought nickel-based superalloy GH4037 in solid and semi-solid states

Cylindrical samples of Ni-based GH4037 alloy were compressed at solid temperatures (1200, 1250 and 1300 °C) and semi-solid temperatures (1340, 1350, 1360, 1370 and 1380 °C) with different strain rates of 0.01, 0.1 and 1 s⁻¹. High temperature deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of GH4037 alloy were investigated. The results indicated that flow stress decreased rapidly at semi-solid temperatures compared to that at solid temperatures. Besides, the flow stress continued to increase after reaching the initial peak stress at semi-solid temperatures when the strain rate was 1 s⁻¹. With increasing the deformation temperature, the size of initial solid grains and recrystallized grains increased. At semi-solid temperatures, the grains were equiaxed, and liquid phase existed at the grain boundaries and inside the grains. Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) characterized by grain boundary bulging was the main nucleation mechanism for GH4037 alloy.

Electroless ternary Ni-W-P alloys containing micron size Al2O3 particles

In the present investigation electroless ternary NiWP-Al₂O₃ composite coatings were prepared using an electroless nickel bath. Second phase alumina particles (1 µm) were used to codeposit in the NiWP matrix. Nanocrystalline ternary NiWP alloys and composite coatings were obtained using an alkaline citrate based bath which was operated at pH 9 and temperature at 88 ± 2 °C. Mild steel was used as a substrate material and deposition was carried out for about 4 h to get a coating thickness of 25 ± 3 µm. Metallographic cross-sections were prepared to find out the coating thickness and also the uniform distribution of the aluminum oxide particles in NiWP matrix. Surface analysis carried out on both the coatings using scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that particle incorporation in ternary NiWP matrix has increased the nodularity of composite coatings compared to fine nodular NiWP deposits. Elemental analysis of energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) results showed that codeposited P and W elements in plain NiWP deposit were 13 and 1.2 wt.%, respectively. There was a decrease in P content from 13 to 10 wt.% with a marginal variation in the incorporated W (1.01 wt.%) due to the codeposition of aluminum oxide particles in NiWP matrix. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies carried out on as-plated deposits showed that both the deposits are X-ray amorphous with a grain size of around 3 nm. Phase transformation studies carried out on both the coatings showed that composite coatings exhibited better thermal stability compared to plain NiWP deposits. From the XRD studies it was found that metastable phases such as NiP and Ni₅P₂ present in the composite coatings heat treated at major exothermic peak temperature. Annealed composite coatings at various temperatures revealed higher microhardness values compared to plain NiWP deposits.
