Effect of SiC nanowhisker addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of regenerated cemented carbides by low-pressure sintering

The hardness and toughness of regenerated cemented carbides, in general, are contradictory. Therefore, it is critical to explore regenerated cemented carbides with both high hardness and high toughness. In this study, regenerated WC-8-wt% Co cemented carbide with SiC nanowhisker were prepared by low-pressure sintering. The influence of SiCw contents on the microstructure and mechanical properties of regenerated WC-8-wt% Co cemented carbide was investigated. The results indicated that the hardness, density, flexural strength, and fracture toughness of regenerated cemented carbide first increased and then decreased with the addition of SiCw. The Vickers hardness, density, flexural strength, and fracture toughness could reach 1575 HV, 14.6 g/cm³, 2204 MPa, 16.85 MPa·m^1/2, respectively, with SiCw content 0.5 wt%, which were increased by 14.4%, 0.7%, 12.2%, and 17.3%, respectively, when compared with the regenerated cemented carbide without SiCw. The lowest friction coefficient and the best wear resistance could be also reached when 0.5-wt% SiCw was added. The fracture mechanism of the regenerated cemented carbide contained both transgranular and intergranular fracture through the microscopic observation of fracture surface via scanning electron microscope.     

Perpetual effect of laser surface texturing on tribological properties of Ti3SiC2/GNP composite—A fretting wear study

Tribological properties of Ti₃SiC₂ ceramic and Ti₃SiC₂/GNP composite were investigated using fretting sliding against Si₃N₄ ball counter body at a load of 50 N for a sliding distance of 900 m, under non-textured lubricated (NTL), textured lubricated (TL) condition, and textured lubricated high temperature (TLHT). This paper presents the influence of laser surface texturing (LST) on Ti₃SiC₂ and its graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) reinforced composite established through spark plasma sintering (SPS), tested under fretting wear conditions. The coefficient of friction and wear rate of Ti₃SiC₂ and its graphene nanoplatelets reinforced composites were incontrovertibly enhanced with laser surface texturing as compared to non-textured Ti₃SiC₂ and its GNP composite. The TL surface of Ti₃SiC₂ composite reinforced with 15% GNP showed the lowest COF and wear rate. Almost negligible changes were observed for TLHT tests. The LST proved to an efficient technique for enhancing the friction and wear properties of Ti₃SiC₂ and Ti₃SiC₂/GNP composite.     

SiC含量对SiCp/Al复合材料摩擦性能的影响

采用粉末冶金技术制备了SiC_p/Al复合材料,探讨了SiC颗粒质量分数对SiC_p/Al复合材料密度、布氏硬度、微观形貌以及摩擦磨损性能的影响。结果表明,SiC颗粒表面形成了少量可提高界面结合性的Al₄C₃化合物。随着SiC质量分数增加,SiC_p/Al复合材料的密度没有明显的变化,当SiC质量分数增加至25%时,密度明显下降。SiC_p/Al复合材料的布氏硬度随着SiC质量分数的增加呈先增长后减小的变化趋势。当SiC质量分数为20%时,材料的硬度最优（HBW 114）,平均摩擦系数达到最大值（0.3425）,摩擦后试样表面形貌平整且犁沟较浅,SiC颗粒未出现明显剥落。     

渗铝钢扩散层空洞对循环氧化和剥落性能的影响

研究了热浸渗铝钢扩散层空洞对循环氧化和剥落性能的影响规律及其机理。结果表明，随扩散温度升高和时间延长，扩散层空洞不断增加，次外层和过渡层之间空洞逐步聚集连接成平行于表面的波浪线状空洞带，使高温氧化过程中扩散层产生了内氧化，氧化动力学曲线偏离平方抛物线规律而呈现抛物线一直线规律。因此，渗铝钢的长期氧化速度同时受扩散层内氧化和外氧化的控制。空洞(空洞带)的形成对循环剥落性能也产生严重影响。探讨了空洞(空洞带)和内氧化的形成机理。

CHARACTERISTICS OF INTERNAL FRICTION AND MODULUS ASSOCIATED WITH NON-EQUILIBRIUM DIFFUSION-TYPE PHASE TRANSFORMATION IN EUTECTOID Al-Zn ALLOY

The characteristics of the low frequency internal friction and the modulus effect associatedwith the non-equilibrium spinodal pretransformation and the following discontinuous trans-formation was investigated in an as-quenched eutectiod Al-Zn alloy.It was observed that theloss of the stability in the lattice,which corresponded to the large-amplitude long-wavelengthstatic concentration wave in the non-equilibrium spinodal pretransformation,did not induceany effect of localized soft modulus.Although there are two aging internal friction peaks inphase transformation which correspond to the appearance and disappearance of the coherencyin spinodal pretransformation and the maximum of the interface area in the discontinuoustransformation respectively,the effect of localized soft modulus did not take place yet.
