Wear resistance and anti-sticking properties of duplex treated forming tool steel

The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of using hard physical vapour deposition (PVD) coatings on forming tools, as well as to determine the influence of plasma nitriding on the load-carrying capacity and wear resistance of coated tool surfaces. A load-scanning test rig was used for evaluation, where duplex treated cold work tool steel samples were loaded against soft austenitic stainless steel and hardened ball bearing steel, respectively. Four different coatings (TiN, TiB₂, TaC and DLC) and two substrate treatments (hardening and plasma nitriding in two different gas mixtures) were included.Plasma nitriding alone significantly improved the friction, wear, and anti-sticking properties of the tool steel. PVD coating, and especially PVD coating of nitrided tool steel further improved the performance. Therefore, from the point of view of tool life as well as work peace surface quality, the DLC coating with its excellent anti-sticking properties and sufficiently good wear resistance represent the best solution for forming tool applications of austenitic stainless steel.

Optimization of surface roughness,cutting force and tool wear of nitrogen alloyed duplex stainless steel in a dry turning process using Taguchi method

In this work, the dry turning parameters of two different grades of nitrogen alloyed duplex stainless steel are optimized by using Taguchi method. The turning operations were carried out with TiC and TiCN coated carbide cutting tool inserts. The experiments were conducted at three different cutting speeds (80, 100 and 120 m/min) with three different feed rates (0.04, 0.08 and 0.12 mm/rev) and a constant depth of cut (0.5 mm). The cutting parameters are optimized using signal to noise ratio and the analysis of variance. The effects of cutting speed and feed rate on surface roughness, cutting force and tool wear were analyzed. The results revealed that the feed rate is the more significant parameter influencing the surface roughness and cutting force. The cutting speed was identified as the more significant parameter influencing the tool wear. Tool wear was analyzed using scanning electron microscope image. The confirmation tests are carried out at optimum cutting conditions. The results at optimum cutting condition are predicted using estimated signal to noise ratio equation. The predicted results are found to be closer to experimental results within 8% deviations.     

Microstructure and tribological behaviour of nitrocarburizing-quenching duplex treated steel

This paper explores salt bath nitrocarburizing and nitrocarburizing-quenching duplex treatment technologies. For comparison, a quenching-tempering treatment was also conducted. By means of metallographic examination, microhardness tests and X-ray diffraction analysis, the microstructures, phase structures, surface hardnesses and hardness profiles of 1045 steel treated by several techniques were investigated. The ball-on-block and ring-on-block apparatuses were employed to investigate the friction coefficient and wear-resistance respectively. The surface roughness was also measured by a profilometer. The experimental results indicate that a higher sub-surface hardness and a superior hardness profile are obtained by nitrocarburizing-quenching duplex process. This in turn improves the wear-resistance and fatigue strength, although the surface hardness is somewhat lower compared with that obtained by nitrocarburizing. It also demonstrates that the -phase formed on the steel surface has significant effects on reducing friction and improving wear-resistance. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the phases at the nitrocarburized specimen surface are mainly -compound [Fe₃(N,C)] and small amounts of Fe₄N(γ′) and Fe_2–3(N,C). While the phases at the nitrocarburized-quenched specimen surface are very different from those at the nitrocarburized specimen. In this case, the -compound has decomposed almost completely and the nitrogen and carbon diffuse to the γ-Fe at the temperature of quenching to form the supersaturated solid solution which will become martensite containing nitrogen and carbon along with retained austenite after subsequent water cooling.

316L不锈钢抗氢脆性能研究

用光学显微镜、电子显微镜、俄歇电子谱／二次离子质谱表面分析仪等结合拉伸试验,研究了316L奥氏体不锈钢及其电子束焊缝在650℃充氘后组织、微区成分变化与性能的关系,以及拉伸应力与氘分布的关系。结果表明,高温气相充氘后,316L奥氏体不锈钢及其电子束焊缝抗氢脆性能明显下降。晶界、孪晶界析出大量碳化物,但拉伸断口形貌并未呈沿晶断裂;晶界上未发现S、P等痕量元素的偏聚,却产生了富Cr、Mo的贫Ni层,这表明晶界成分的变化减弱了晶界析出物对氢脆的影响。电子束焊缝塑性下降,拉伸时从该处断裂。拉伸静水应力梯度分布导致氘在拉伸试样断口处富集。

TEM analysis of centreline sulphide precipitates modified by titanium additions to low carbon steel

Elongated inclusions, particularly MnS, contribute significantly to reduced ductility and toughness in hot rolled steel but earlier research indicated that these properties can be improved by titanium additions. Such additions to a steel result in titanium being dissolved in manganese sulphide or MnS being replaced by TiS and/or titanium carbosulphides. In the present study, a steel was designed to decrease alloying element segregation and to evaluate the effect of titanium on centreline sulphide precipitates. Precipitates were identified by using scanning electron microscopy and characterized by the use of transmission electron microscopy following sample preparation by focused ion beam milling techniques. Iron–titanium‐sulphides form in close proximity to MnS precipitates that contain iron. Evidence is provided that an increase in the titanium content of steel leads to an increase in the percentage of titanium contained in the iron sulphides and a decrease in the iron content of MnS inclusions.     

EBSD investigation of the microstructure and texture characteristics of hot deformed duplex stainless steel

The microstructure and crystallographic texture characteristics were studied in a 22Cr‐6Ni‐3Mo duplex stainless steel subjected to plastic deformation in torsion at a temperature of 1000 °C using a strain rate of 1 s^?1. High‐resolution EBSD was successfully used for precise phase and substructural characterization of this steel. The austenite/ferrite ratio and phase morphology as well as the crystallographic texture, subgrain size, misorientation angles and misorientation gradients corresponding to each phase were determined over large sample areas. The deformation mechanisms in each phase and the interrelationship between the two are discussed.     

CBED and LACBED characterization of crystal defects

Convergent‐beam electron diffraction (CBED) obtained with a focused incident beam is well known for the identification of the point and space groups but it can also be used for the analysis of stacking faults and antiphase boundaries. Large‐angle convergent‐beam electron diffraction (LACBED) is performed with a large defocused incident beam and is well adapted to the characterization of most types of crystal defects: point defects, perfect and partial dislocations, stacking faults, antiphase boundaries and grain boundaries. Among the advantages of these methods with respect to the conventional transmission electron microscopy methods, are that one or few patterns are required for a full analysis and the interpretations are easy and unambiguous. The LACBED technique is particularly useful for the analysis of dislocations present in anisotropic and beam‐sensitive materials.     

Structure and morphology of the in situ composites of a liquid crystalline polymer and polycarbonate

In situ composites were prepared via melt blending of a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) and polycarbonate using a twin screw extruder. The structure and morphology of these composites were analysed using both transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy. The LCP phases were able to orientate and form in situ submicrometre fibres during the extrusion and post-extrusion drawing. TEM images as well as selected-area diffraction patterns were obtained from the materials. The effects of both composition, i.e. LCP content, and post-extrusion draw-down ratio on the development of the in situ formed LCP fibres were studied in detail. A skin–core morphological differentiation is observed in these materials where well-defined LCP fibres of higher aspect ratios were formed in the skin region. However, a significant amount of unelongated LCP particles were found coexisting with the less well-defined fibres in the core region of the extrudates. This skin–core differentiation was found to be dependent on the composition and the processing conditions, e.g. draw ratio. In this instance, electron microscopy is proven to be a powerful technique not only for direct observation of the formation, dimensions and morphology of the in situ LCP fibres, but also for the qualitative and quantitative characterization of the molecular orientation and crystalline structures in these fibres using selected-area electron diffraction. It is observed that the skin–core differentiation becomes more distinct in the in situ composites containing a higher percentage of LCP but diminishes when the material is processed at higher post-extrusion draw ratio.     

On the accuracy of lattice-distortion analysis directly from high-resolution transmission electron micrographs

Lattice‐distortion analysis from high‐resolution transmission electron micrographs offers a convenient and fast tool for direct measurement of strains in materials over a large area. In the present work, we have evaluated the accuracy of the strain measurement when the effects of the realistic experimental variables are explicitly taken into account by the use of image simulation techniques. These variables are focal setting and variation, local thickness and orientation of the sample, as well as misalignments of the sample and the incident beam. The evaluation reveals that consistency of image features and contrast within the micrographs is desired for the analysis to eliminate effects of the variations of local focus value and specimen thickness. After proper orientation of a crystalline specimen, the misorientation of the object will not notably influence the strain measurement even though a local bending may exist within the sample. However, the incident beam of the microscope needs to be aligned carefully as the beam misalignment may introduce a notable artefact around the interface region.

TEM characterization of precipitates in the segregated regions of a low-carbon, low-manganese, titanium-added steel

A concentric solidification technique has been employed to simulate sulphide precipitation at the centreline of a continuously cast low-carbon, low-manganese, titanium-added steel slab. Selected precipitates were identified using transmission electron microscopy following sample preparation by focused ion beam milling techniques. FeTiS₂ and hexagonal MnS containing iron atoms form in close proximity to each other in super-saturated areas of the concentrically solidified sample. The presence of FeTiS₂ precipitates in low-carbon steel has been verified for the first time, and the crystal structure determined by electron diffraction analysis as a trigonal CdI₂-type with a P 3 m1 space group and lattice parameters of a = 0.341 nm and c = 0.569 nm.     

Anomalous cracking of bearing balls under a liquid-butane environment

The causes of anomalous cracking of bearing balls experienced on the main bearings of a liquid-butane pump were investigated. The characteristic features of the cracked balls were (1) no scoring on ball surfaces; (2) no structural defects; (3) subsurface crack generation and intergranular growth; (4) no inclusions at the origins of the cracks. We suspected hydrogen embrittlement to be the reason for this phenomenon and the hydrogen concentration of cracked balls was measured. Amounts of hydrogen sufficient to cause the embrittlement were detected. We also measured the hydrogen concentration of balls tested under research-grade liquid butane by the four-ball rolling contact configuration. Although the cracking of balls was not reproduced, increased hydrogen concentrations were detected. The mechanisms of hydrogen diffusion into the balls are also discussed.     

Microstructure of MmM(5)/Mg multi-layer hydrogen storage films prepared by magnetron sputtering

Multi-layer hydrogen storage thin films with Mg and MmNi3.5(CoAlMn)1.5 (here Mm denotes La-rich mischmetal) as alternative layers were prepared by direct current magnetron sputtering. Transmission electron microscopy investigation shows that the microstructure of the MmNi3.5(CoAlMn)1.5 and Mg layers are significantly different although their deposition conditions are the same. The MmNi3.5(CoAlMn)1.5 layer is composed of two regions: one is an amorphous region approximately 4 nm thick at the bottom of the layer and the other is a nanocrystalline region on top of the amorphous region. The Mg layer is also composed of two regions: one is a randomly orientated nanocrystalline region 50 nm thick at the bottom of the layer and the other is a columnar crystallite region on top of the nanocrystalline region. These Mg columnar crystallites have their [001] directions parallel to the growth direction and the average lateral size of these columnar crystallites is about 100 nm. A growth mechanism of the multi-layer thin films is discussed based on the experiment results.     

Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxin induces a cascade of morphological changes of sheep erythrocytes and localizes into clusters in erythrocyte membranes

Adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis penetrates the membrane of eukaryotic cells, producing high levels of intracellular cAMP, as well as hemolysis that results from the formation of cation-selective toxin channels in the membrane. Using several microscopical approaches we studied the effects of CyaA action on the morphology of sheep erythrocytes during early phases preceding lysis and examined localization of CyaA molecules within the erythrocyte membrane. CyaA induced a cascade of morphological changes of erythrocytes, such as shrinkage, formation of membrane projections, and blebs and swelling. The use of an enzymatically inactive CyaA-AC- toxoid that is unable to produce cAMP and of a CyaA-E581K mutant exhibiting higher hemolytic activity than with CyaA showed that the hemolytic activity is responsible for the induction of morphological changes of erythrocytes. Further, immunolabeling of inserted CyaA-232/FLAG molecules with specific anti-FLAG antibodies and IgG-gold particles indicated a clustered distribution of CyaA molecules in erythrocyte membrane. This was confirmed by immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy, which revealed uniform stoichiometry of CyaA clusters, suggesting CyaA binding into specific domains in erythrocyte membrane. Indeed, a decrease of CyaA binding after cholesterol depletion of erythrocytes suggests toxin targeting and binding to membrane microdomains (rafts).     

Cross-Section preparation for tem of film-substrate combinations with a large difference in sputtering yields

The preparation of cross-section samples of thin films for TEM, may be difficult and tedious, especially if the difference in chemical or physical etching rates is large between the film and the substrate. In this paper, a method is presented whereby cross-sections can be prepared even if the film and the substrate have a large difference in sputtering yield. By utilizing the strong angular dependence of the sputtering yield and sputter at a low ion incidence angle with respect to the substrate surface of 7–12° and, furthermore, by avoiding sputtering parallel to the interface, samples with homogeneous thickness can be obtained. The technique is demonstrated on reactively sputtered titanium nitride coatings on high speed steel substrates. The difference in sputtering yields is about three for this film-substrate combination with the substrate being sputtered fastest.
