Ultrasonic and Conventional Fatigue Endurance of Aeronautical Aluminum Alloy 7075-T6, with Artificial and Induced Pre-CorrosionMetals - Tập 10 Số 8 - Trang 1033
Ishvari F. Zuñiga Tello, Marijana Milković, Gonzalo M. Domínguez Almaraz, Nenad Gubeljak
Ultrasonic and conventional fatigue tests were carried out on the AISI-SAE AA7075-T6 aluminum alloy, in order to evaluate the effect of artificial and induced pre-corrosion. Artificial pre-corrosion was obtained by two hemispherical pitting holes of 500-μm diameter at the specimen neck section, machined following the longitudinal or transverse direction of the testing specimen. Induced pre...... hiện toàn bộ
Processing and Properties of Aluminum and Magnesium Based Composites Containing Amorphous Reinforcement: A ReviewMetals - Tập 5 Số 2 - Trang 743-762
S. Jayalakshmi, Sankaranarayanan Seetharaman, Manoj Gupta
This review deals with the processing and properties of novel lightweight metal matrix composites. Conventionally, hard and strong ceramic particles are used as reinforcement to fabricate metal matrix composites (MMCs). However, the poor mechanical properties associated with the interfacial de-cohesion and undesirable reactions at (ceramic) particle–(metallic) matrix interface represent ma...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Batch Mass on Formation of NiTi Shape Memory Alloy Produced by High-Energy Ball MillingMetals - Tập 11 Số 12 - Trang 1908
Tomasz Goryczka, Piotr Salwa
A high-energy ball milling technique was used for production of the equiatomic NiTi alloy. The grinding batch was prepared in two quantities of 10 and 20 g. The alloy was produced using various grinding times. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, hardness measurement and differential scanning calorimetry were used for materials characterization at various milling stages. The pr...... hiện toàn bộ
The Origins of High-Entropy Alloy Contamination Induced by Mechanical Alloying and SinteringMetals - Tập 10 Số 9 - Trang 1186

One of the prevailing problems for materials produced by powder metallurgy is contamination from various sources. This work deals with the influence of process parameters and presence of process control agents (PCA) on the contamination level of materials produced by means of mechanical alloying (MA) technology, densified with spark plasma sintering (SPS). The equiatomic CoCrFeNi high-entr...... hiện toàn bộ
Synergism Red Mud-Acid Mine Drainage as a Sustainable Solution for Neutralizing and Immobilizing Hazardous ElementsMetals - Tập 11 Số 4 - Trang 620
Hugo Lucas, Srečko Stopić, Buhle Xakalashe, Sehliselo Ndlovu, Bernd Friedrich
Acid mine drainage (AMD) and red mud (RM) are frequently available in the metallurgical and mining industry. Treating AMD solutions require the generation of enough alkalinity to neutralize the acidity excess. RM, recognized as a waste generating high alkalinity solution when it is in contact with water, was chosen to treat AMD from South Africa at room temperature. A German and a Greek RM...... hiện toàn bộ
Development of Low Silver AgCuZnSn Filler Metal for Cu/Steel Dissimilar Metal JoiningMetals - Tập 9 Số 2 - Trang 198
Peng Xue, Yang Zou, Peng He, Yinyin Pei, Huawei Sun, Chaoli Ma, Jingyi Luo
The microstructure and properties of a Cu/304 stainless steel dissimilar metal joint brazed with a low silver Ag16.5CuZnSn-xGa-yCe braze filler after aging treatment were investigated. The results indicated that the addition of Ce could reduce the intergranular penetration depth of the filler metal into the stainless steel during the aging process. The minimum penetration depth in the Ag16...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Na2CO3 and K2CO3 Addition on Iron Grain Growth during Carbothermic Reduction of Red MudMetals - Tập 9 Số 12 - Trang 1313

Red mud is a by-product of alumina production from bauxite ore by the Bayer method, which contains considerable amounts of valuable components such as iron, aluminum, titanium, and scandium. In this study, an approach was applied to extract iron, i.e., carbothermic reduction roasting of red mud with sodium and potassium carbonates followed by magnetic separation. The thermodynamic analysis...... hiện toàn bộ
Quantitative Analysis of Inclusion Engineering on the Fatigue Property Improvement of Bearing SteelMetals - Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 476
Chao Gu, Min Wang, Yanping Bao, Fuming Wang, Junhe Lian
The fatigue property is significantly affected by the inner inclusions in steel. Due to the inhomogeneity of inclusion distribution in the micro-scale, it is not straightforward to quantify the effect of inclusions on fatigue behavior. Various investigations have been performed to correlate the inclusion characteristics, such as inclusion fraction, size, and composition, with fatigue life....... hiện toàn bộ
Tuning Interface to Improve Corrosion Resistance of Electroless Ni-P Coating on AZ31B AlloyMetals - Tập 8 Số 5 - Trang 328
Beilei Ma, Ruihong Wang
Interface is crucial to enable desirable service performances of coatings on substrates. In this paper, Ni-P coatings were prepared on AZ31B alloy by using electroless plating, with the coating/substrate interface being tuned to improve the corrosion resistance. The interface tuning involved a phosphate treatment prior to the electroless plating, which created a uniform surface of the Mg s...... hiện toàn bộ
Final Heat Treatment as a Possible Solution for the Improvement of Machinability of Pb-Free Brass AlloysMetals - Tập 8 Số 8 - Trang 575
Anagnostis Toulfatzis, George Pantazopoulos, Constantine David, Dimitrios Sagris, Alkiviadis S. Paipetis
Heat treatment was performed in order to improve the machinability of three lead-free extruded and drawn brasses, namely CuZn42 (CW510L), CuZn38As (CW511L), and CuZn36 (C27450), based on the concept of microstructural modification. The examined machinability criteria were the following: chip morphology, power consumption, cutting force, and surface roughness. All the above quality characte...... hiện toàn bộ
