The chemical compositions and microstructure of the SLM Fe-Ni alloy are characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the samples exhibited fine grains with homogenous distribution when a low laser scanning velocity was used. Moreover, the magnetic properties of the samples with different laser parameters are also measured. It shows that the SLM Fe-30%Ni alloy possesses a low coercivity and high saturation magnetization. It also can be obtained that SLM is an alternative faster method to prepare soft magnetic material with complex shapes. Moreover, the magnetic properties can be influenced by the laser parameters.展开更多

The martensite phase of Ti-Ni alloy can be found by X-ray diffraction （XRD） analysis under temperature field, moreover, the Ti2Ni phase at a high scanning velocity. The crystalline phase images also show that the synthesized Ti-Ni alloy possessed a refined martensite microstructure. In order to evaluate the mechanical properties, the microhardness and porosity were measured. The microhardness is relatively high about 400HVo.2 with champ temperature. Besides, the porosity is quite low due to the excellent laser energy absorptivity and meltability of Ni element. The differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） analysis shows that the transformation temperature from austenite phase to martensite phase is relatively high and stable.展开更多

The application of high static axial magnetic field(5T) during directional solidification was found to destabilize the solid/liquid interface and cause the growth direction of dendrite deviate from thermal gradient, leading to irregular solid/liquid interfacial shape and cellular to dendritic morphology transition. The thermoelectric magnetic convection(TEMC) caused by the interaction of thermoelectric effect and magnetic field was supposed to be responsible for the transition. In addition, the EBSD and XRD results confirm that the preferred growth direction of α-Al was found to transform from the traditionally expected <100> to<110>. The dendrite orientation transition(DOT) in Al-10 wt.%Zn alloy can be attributed to the effect of applied magnetic field on the anisotropy of crystal during solidification. The result indicates the potential application of high static magnetic field in altering the morphology and preferred growth direction of dendrite during directional solidification.展开更多

The heat treatment was conducted under the temperatures from 250 ℃ to 950 ℃ with a step of 100 ℃ for 2 h. It was found that a dense thick Cu-4Cr-2Nb coating could be formed by cold spraying. After heat treatment, a Cr2Nb phase was uniformly distributed in the matrix, which was transferred from the gas-atomized feedstock. A little grain growth of Cr2Nb phase was observed accompanying with the healing-up of the incomplete interfaces between the deposited particles at the elevated temperatures. The coating microhardness increases a little with increasing the temperature to 350 ℃, and then decreases with further increasing temperature up to 950 ℃. This fact can be attributed to the microstructure evolution during the heat treatment.展开更多

In present work, graphite and MoS2 (7%, wt) filled PEEK coatings were prepared using serigraph technique. Employing a uniform design experiment, the friction behavior of the composite coatings was systematically investigated under dry sliding conditions on a ball-on-disc arrangement. The evolution mechanism of coating friction coefficient was discussed. Correlation of coatings friction coefficient with sliding velocity and applied load was accomplished using stepwise regression method. The results indicate that friction coefficients of PEEK + MoS2 and PEEK + graphite coating decrease while increasing applied load. Moreover, friction coefficient of PEEK + MoS2 coating increases with increasing sliding velocity.展开更多
