The results show that A17Cu2Fe phase can be formed and transformed in TC- and SF-3C alloys between 802-813 K and 800-815 K, respectively. The transformation from β-Al5FeSi to δ-Al4FeSi2 phase via peritectic reaction can occur at around 858-870 K and 876-890 K in TC- and SF-3C alloys, respectively. The starting precipitation temperature of δ-Al4FeSi2 phase as the dominant Fe-bearing phase in the TC-3C alloy is 997 K and the exothermic peak about the peritectic transformation of δ-Al4FeSi2→β-Al5FeSi is not detected in the present DSC experiments. Also, the mechanisms of the microstructural evolution and phase transformation are discussed.展开更多

Th...Milled form of mesophase pitch-based graphite fibers were coated with a titanium layer using chemical vapor deposition technique and Ti-coated graphite fiber/Cu composites were fabricated by hot-pressing sintering. The composites were characterized with X-ray diffraction, scanning/transmission electron microscopies, and by mea- suring thermal properties, including thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion （CTE）. The results show that the milled fibers are preferentially oriented in a plane perpendicular to the pressing direction, leading to anisotropic thermal properties of the composites. The Ti coating reacted with graphite fiber and formed a continuous and uniform TiC layer. This carbide layer establishes a good metallurgical interracial bonding in the composites, which can improve the thermal properties effectively. When the fiber content ranges from 35 vol% to 50 vol%, the in-plane thermal conductivities of the composites increase from 383 to 407 W.（m.K）-~, and the in-plane CTEs decrease from 9.5 x 10-6 to 6.3 10-6 K-1.展开更多

As the intercritical annealing temperature increased, the volume fraction of retained austenite(RA) and ultimate tensilstress(UTS) increased, while the Lüders strain and yield stress(YS) decreased. The incremental workhardening exponent of experimental steel increased with increasing intercritical annealing temperatureThe overall trend of the transformation kinetics of the RA with respect to the true strain followed thsigmoidal shape predicted by the Olson and Cohen(OC) model. Load partitioning occurred among the ferrite, austenite and martensite immediately after entering the yielding stage. Because the stability of thRA decreased with increasing intercritical annealing temperature, the load undertaken by the martensitincreased. The moderate transformation kinetics of the RA and effective load partitioning among constituent phases were found to contribute to a favorable combination of strength and ductility for thimedium-Mn TRIP steel.展开更多

文摘In order to prolong the service life of ZrO_(2) thermal barrier coatings,HS188 alloy was used as the substrate,and NiCrAlY powder(base layer,d_(50)=106μm)and yttria stabilized zirconia(YSZ,d_(50)=50μm)were employed as the sprayed feeder to prepare NiCrALY+YSZ thermal barrier coatings using high-energy plasma spraying equipment with a progressive exploration method.The microstructure of the coatings was controlled by adjusting the stand-off distance(85,95,105 and 115 mm)and air-cooling manner(rear air cooling,rear air cooling+gun cooling,front air cooling,and front air cooling+gun cooling).The bonding strength of the coatings was evaluated by the drawing method.The results indicate that under the conditions of long stand-off distance and low cooling rate,it is difficult for the coatings to form a vertical crack structure due to the low instantaneous heating temperature and insufficient quenching on the sample surface.However,when the instantaneous heating temperature reaches the critical value and the air cooling rate is excessive,un-melted spray particles exist.When the stand-off distance is 85 mm and the cooling method is front air cooling,a thermal barrier ceramic coating with vertical crack morphology was obtained on HS188 alloy.Simultaneously,it has a moderate density of vertical cracks,the highest bonding strength and the best toughness.

文摘The failure analysis was conducted on unqualified torsion bar spring in automobile suspension system used for light vehicles during engine test.The effects of through hardening,surface induction hardening,quenching and tempering,and tempering temperature on the microstructure and fatigue life of 45CrNiMoVA steel torsion bars were also investigated.Results showed that only the torsion bar spring after through quenching and tempering is subjected to surface induction quenching and tempering to achieve the fatigue life of the qualified torsion bar.The fatigue life of torsion bar spring reaches 3×10^(5) cycles more than the required 2×10^(5) cycles.This is because the distribution of gradient microstructure was helpful to relieve the applied stress during the fatigue process.The microstructure of the non-hardened region,which consists of tempered sorbite regardless of whether it is tempered at 330 or 430℃,contributes to minimizing the impact of temper brittleness on the fatigue life of the torsion bar.Consequently,the fatigue life of the torsion bar is relatively unaffected by temper brittleness due to the presence of tempered sorbite in its non-hardened regions.And the reason for the unqualified fatigue life was that the depth and hardness of the hardened region did not meet the standard requirements of 5–7 mm and 47–52 HRC,respectively.

文摘The plastic deformation introduced during the cooling stage(above 1000℃)of directional solidification is one of the primary reasons for the recrystallization of Ni-based single-crystal(SX)turbine blades in aeroengines during subsequent heat treatment.An as-cast SX superalloy DD33 was compressed at 1200°C with a Gleeble thermo-mechanical simulator to mimic such deformation.The microstructural evolution,dynamic recovery,and dynamic recrystallization nucleation of the as-cast SX superalloy during hot deformation are investigated.The results show that the highest stored energy occurs in the vicinity of the eutectics,and its energy in the interdendritic regions is higher than that in the dendrite cores/arms.The formation of deformation bands and related transition bands near the eutectics are the primary characteristics of microstructural evolution during hot deformation.The dynamic recovery in the eutectic regions includes the entanglement and annihilation of dislocations at eutectic/matrix interface,within nearby γ matrix or within the eutectic γ′phase,as well as the formation of dense dislocation networks in these sites.Subsequently,the low-angle grain boundaries in the transition bands migrate,merge,and finally transform into high-angle grain boundaries.In other words,the recrystallized grains nucleate near the eutectics via subgrain growth.In contrast,the dislocations only tangle and annihilate at the γ/γ′ interfaces in other interdendritic regions and the dendrite cores/arms without initiating recrystallization under moderate plastic deformation(ε_(plastic)=11.9%).This study will be helpful for understanding the local microstructural evolution of SX superalloys during directional solidification,as well as the recovery and recrystallization nucleation during the subsequent annealing.

文摘Doping small amounts at the A-site or B-site of SmCrO_(3)ceramics is a promising approach for modifying their microstructure,as well as their magnetic and dielectric properties.In this study,polycrystalline ceramics of Sm_(1-x)Ni_(x)CrO_(3)(x=0,0.05,and 0.20)and SmCr_(1-y)Ni_(y)O_(3)(y=0.05 and 0.20)were synthesized via a conventional solid-state reaction.X-ray diffraction validated that all the doped ceramics maintained an orthorhombic crystalline structure consistent with the Pbnm space group.Furthermore,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrated the presence of Ni^(2+)ions in the doped specimens.Notably,doping resulted in significant enhancement of low-temperature magnetic properties,particularly in samples doped at the A-site,such as Sm0.80Ni0.20CrO_(3).Compared with the pristine sample,the maximum magnetization of Sm_(0.8)0Ni_(0.2)0CrO_(3)increased by approximately 60.9%and 93.5%in the zero-field cooling and field-cooling modes,respectively,in an external magnetic field of 100 Oe.Furthermore,the dielectric constants of the Ni-doped ceramics initially exceeded that of the pristine sample as the temperature increased.At equivalent doping ratios,A-site doping demonstrated superior performance over B-site doping,including higher magnetization,lower dielectric loss,and enhanced electrical quality factors.

文摘The structural modulation of metal-based heterostructure plays a vital role in achieving enhanced performances for highly efficient electrocatalysis.Here we design submonolayered Ru-modified Pd mesoporous nanosheets(Pd-Ru MNSs)with the exposure of both Pd and Ru active sites as well as the high atomic utilization of two-dimensional structure.The obtained Pd-Ru MNSs can act as a highly efficient multifunctional catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and alcohol oxidation reactions including ethylene glycol oxidation(EGOR)and ethanol oxidation(EOR),offering new opportunities towards the alcohol oxidation assisted hydrogen production.Specifically,Pd-Ru MNSs demonstrate excellent HER performance in alkaline electrolyte,requiring an overpotential of only 16mV to reach 10mAcm^(−2),significantly outperforming Pd mesoporous nanosheets and commercial catalysts.Density functional theory calculations reveal that the Ru sites in Pd-Ru MNSs could facilitate the water adsorption,accelerate the water dissociation,and optimize the hydrogen desorption,leading to the superior HER activity.Pd-Ru MNSs also exhibit high mass activities of 11.19 A mg^(−1)Pd for EGOR and 8.84 A mg^(−1)Pd for EOR,which is 7.8 and 9.6 times than that of commercial Pd/C,respectively.The EGOR reaction pathway over Pd-Ru MNSs was further investigated by using in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.

文摘Microstructural change,stress rupture property,deformation and fracture mechanisms of Nimonic 105 superalloy at 750℃have been studied.Experimental results showed that the stress rupture strength of the alloy at 750℃ for 10^(5)h is about 200 MPa.γ'precipitates and M_(23)C_(6)carbides grew gradually with prolonging the rupture time,while no significant change was observed in MC carbide morphology.After stress rupture test at 750℃ and 250 MPa for 23,341 h,a transition from spherical to cuboidal morphology of γ'precipitates was found,and nearly continuous chains of M_(23)C_(6)carbides formed on the grain boundary.Orowan looping and strongly coupled dislocation pairs cutting and microtwinning were the dominant deformation mechanisms at 750℃ and 350-450 MPa,while the main deformation mode was Orowan looping at 750℃ and 250 MPa.The failure of the alloy was mainly attributed to the nucleation,growth and interlinkage of voids.

文摘Different from the grain boundary diffusion process(GBDP),which is suitable for modifying thin magnet,a green-pressing agents permeation process(GAPP)that uses low melting point alloys was applied to the Nd-Fe-B green compact with a thickness over 15 mm to reconstruct the boundary microstructure of a sintered Nd-Fe-B magnet.The coercivity increases from 12.3 kOe for the sample free of Pr80Al20 to16.8 kOe for the sample with 2 wt%Pr80Al20.By further increasing the Pr80Al20 content to 3 wt%,the coercivity increases slightly,but the remanence and Hk/Hcj deteriorate obviously.The optimal comprehensive properties of Hcj=16.8 kOe,Br=13.4 kG and Hk/Hcj=0.975 are obtained at 2 wt%Pr80Al20,since matrix phase grains are separated by relatively continuous thin grain boundary layers,which weaken the magnetic coupling between adjacent grains.The coercivities of the samples from the GAPP that use2 wt%Pr80Al20,Pr70Al30 and Pr60Tb20Al20 alloys,respectively,can be enhanced to a large extent.However,the coercivity of the magnet reconstructed with Pr80Al20 is lower than that of the sample with Pr60Tb20Al20 but is higher than that of the sample reconstructed with Pr70Cu30 alloy.Moreover,the coercivity of the sample from the GAPP using 2 wt%Pr80Al20 is much higher than that of the sample from the GBDP,which is due to a nearly uniform boundary microstructure from the surface to the interior of the thick magnet from the GAPP,thus providing new insights into the fabrication of thick and bulky permanent magnets with high coercivity.

文摘As a revolutionary industrial technology,additive manufacturing creates objects by adding materials layer by layer and hence can fabricate customized components with an unprecedented degree of freedom.For metallic materials,unique hierarchical microstructures are constructed during additive manufacturing,which endow them with numerous excellent properties.To take full advantage of additive manufacturing,an in-depth understanding of the microstructure evolution mechanism is required.To this end,this review explores the fundamental procedures of additive manufacturing,that is,the formation and binding of melt pools.A comprehensive processing map is proposed that integrates melt pool energy-and geometry-related process parameters together.Based on it,additively manufactured microstructures are developed during and after the solidification of constituent melt pool.The solidification structures are composed of primary columnar grains and fine secondary phases that form along the grain boundaries.The post-solidification structures include submicron scale dislocation cells stemming from internal residual stress and nanoscale precipitates induced by intrinsic heat treatment during cyclic heating of adjacent melt pool.Based on solidification and dislocation theories,the formation mechanisms of the multistage microstructures are thoroughly analyzed,and accordingly,multistage control methods are proposed.In addition,the underlying atomic scale structural features are briefly discussed.Furthermore,microstructure design for additive manufacturing through adjustment of process parameters and alloy composition is addressed to fulfill the great potential of the technique.This review not only builds a solid microstructural framework for metallic materials produced by additive manufacturing but also provides a promising guideline to adjust their mechanical properties.

文摘Magnesium alloys,a novel functional material for the fabrication of fracturing tools,are being paid more and more attentions recently due to their relatively high mechanical properties and fast dissolubility ability after fracturing.In this study,the novel extruded Mg-10Gd-3Y-0.3Zr-xNi alloys will be reported and their microstructure,mechanical and corrosion behaviors will be also studied.The results show that Ni contents influence phase precipitation behaviors.With adding 0.2 wt%Ni,a large amount of Zr_(7)Ni_(10)phases will be precipitated insidesα-Mg matrix,directly leading to degradation of strength and large corrosion rate.With further increasing Ni contents,the precipitation phases can be changed from Mg_(5)RE to 18R-LPSO structure,resulting in higher mechanical properties and faster corrosion rate.Moreover,adding Ni element also change the texture orientation by influencing the precipitation behavior of the alloys.The alloys invented in this paper have attained the highest compressive and tensile properties among all the reported dissoluble magnesium alloys.This work is beneficial in understanding the role of Ni in the magnesium alloys and provides more materials alternatives for the fabrication of dissoluble fracturing tools.

文摘Microstructural evolution and phase transformation induced by different heat treatments of the hypereutectic aluminium-silicon alloy, Al-25Si-5Fe-3Cu （wt%, signed as 3C）, fabricated by traditional cast （TC） and spray forming （SF） processes, were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） combined with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. The results show that A17Cu2Fe phase can be formed and transformed in TC- and SF-3C alloys between 802-813 K and 800-815 K, respectively. The transformation from β-Al5FeSi to δ-Al4FeSi2 phase via peritectic reaction can occur at around 858-870 K and 876-890 K in TC- and SF-3C alloys, respectively. The starting precipitation temperature of δ-Al4FeSi2 phase as the dominant Fe-bearing phase in the TC-3C alloy is 997 K and the exothermic peak about the peritectic transformation of δ-Al4FeSi2→β-Al5FeSi is not detected in the present DSC experiments. Also, the mechanisms of the microstructural evolution and phase transformation are discussed.

文摘Milled form of mesophase pitch-based graphite fibers were coated with a titanium layer using chemical vapor deposition technique and Ti-coated graphite fiber/Cu composites were fabricated by hot-pressing sintering. The composites were characterized with X-ray diffraction, scanning/transmission electron microscopies, and by mea- suring thermal properties, including thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion （CTE）. The results show that the milled fibers are preferentially oriented in a plane perpendicular to the pressing direction, leading to anisotropic thermal properties of the composites. The Ti coating reacted with graphite fiber and formed a continuous and uniform TiC layer. This carbide layer establishes a good metallurgical interracial bonding in the composites, which can improve the thermal properties effectively. When the fiber content ranges from 35 vol% to 50 vol%, the in-plane thermal conductivities of the composites increase from 383 to 407 W.（m.K）-~, and the in-plane CTEs decrease from 9.5 x 10-6 to 6.3 10-6 K-1.

文摘An in situ high-energy X-ray diffraction(HE-XRD) technique was mainly used to investigate the micromechanical behavior of medium-Mn Fe-0.12 C-10.16 Mn-1.87 Al(in wt%) transformation-induced plasticit(TRIP) steel subjected to intercritical annealing at 625℃, 650℃, 675℃ and 700℃ for 1 h. As the intercritical annealing temperature increased, the volume fraction of retained austenite(RA) and ultimate tensilstress(UTS) increased, while the Lüders strain and yield stress(YS) decreased. The incremental workhardening exponent of experimental steel increased with increasing intercritical annealing temperatureThe overall trend of the transformation kinetics of the RA with respect to the true strain followed thsigmoidal shape predicted by the Olson and Cohen(OC) model. Load partitioning occurred among the ferrite, austenite and martensite immediately after entering the yielding stage. Because the stability of thRA decreased with increasing intercritical annealing temperature, the load undertaken by the martensitincreased. The moderate transformation kinetics of the RA and effective load partitioning among constituent phases were found to contribute to a favorable combination of strength and ductility for thimedium-Mn TRIP steel.
