JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA solution-treated specimen and four kinds of aged specimens of Cu-2.3 wt%Fe alloy, containing spherical coherent precipitates with smaller diameters than 430 Å, were cold-rolled 93.3%. The effects of the precipitate particles on the softening behaviour during isochronal annealing were studied by hardness measurement, and optical and transmission electron microscopy. The results obtained were summarized as follows. The hardness of this alloy increases remarkably and non-ferromagnetic γ-precipitates in the aged specimens transform to a ferromagnetic α-phase and lose coherency with the matrix by 93.3% cold-rolling.
The softening of the aged specimens proceed gradually during annealing after rolling and the softening rates were much slower than that of the solution-treated specimen. The temperatures for 50% hardness drop in the aged specimens were higher than that of the solution-treated specimen by about 410°∼470°C.
The differences of the softening rates among the aged specimens are small, but the softening rate of the specimen containing precipitate particles with a diameter of about 430 Å, is lower than that of the other specimens.
The formation and the growth of recrystallization nuclei during annealing in the aged and rolled specimens proceed preferentially in the area with no or a few precipitate particles.
It appears that the precipitate particles in the aged and rolled specimens retard the movement of dislocations, subgrain boundaries, recrystallized grain boundaries and old grain boundaries in the process of recovery and recrystallization.
Recovery and recrystallization of the solution-treated and rolled specimen during annealing almost complete before precipitate particles come to reveal a retardation effect.View full abstractDownload PDF (2935K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe very early stage of ageing of Al-40 at%Zn alloy around 290°C has been investigated by means of electrical resistivity measurements, hardness tests and transmission electron microscopic observations. The results are summarised as follows:
(1) Electrical resistivity change during ageing around 290°C suggests that there is a considerable difference between the ageing behaviours at high and low temperatures.
(2) Hardness of the alloy increases at the very early stage of ageing, passes through a maximum, and decreases rapidly.
(3) In the very early stage of ageing, a fine grid-like structure can be observed by transmission electron microscopy, and this fine grid-like structure is very similar in appearance to the modulated structure formed due to the occurrence of spinodal decomposition. The increase in hardness at the very early stage of ageing seems to be associated with the formation of the fine grid-like structure.View full abstractDownload PDF (1795K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSOver a strain rate range from 10−4 l/s to 103 l/s, tensile properties of a low carbon steel were investigated at −196°∼500°C. The results obtained are summarized:
(1) The temperature of blue-brittleness shifts to a higher temperature range with increase in strain rate, and the strain rate range at which blue-brittleness occurs widens with elevated temperatures. And the mechanism of blue-brittleness at higher temperatures is different from that at lower temperature.
(2) The lower yield stress and the tensile strength are expressed in terms of four strengths determined by the temperature and the strain rate at a certain grain size;

where σ1, σ2, σ3 and σ4 are the strength without ageing, the strength increment induced by strengthening with deformation, the strength decrement induced by softening and the strength increment with blue-brittleness, respectively.
(3) At lower temperatures, elongations are considerablly small in spite of sufficient area contractions at higher strain rates because of the existence of a quasi-critical impact velocity.View full abstractDownload PDF (2085K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn 1943, Kaya and Sato measured the specific heat of a FeCo superlattice alloy and observed a bump in the specific heat versus temperature curve at 550°C in addition to the order-disorder transformation at 730°C. Such a bump cannot be seen in the theoretical specific heat versus temperature curve for ordinary superlattice alloys. Despite numerous works that followed, the reason for this phenomenon has not been fully explained.
In the present study the following procedure was employed: In heating the slowly cooled ordered FeCo alloy, the specimen was kept at a predetermined temperature for a sufficient time, so that the electrical resistivity could be retained constant. Then the specimen was submerged into water several times and its electrical resistivity was measured in liquid nitrogen. This process was repeated several times at different temperatures up to 800°C.
In cooling the specimen, the same procedure as mentioned above was employed in a reverse direction.
In the equilibrium electrical resistivity versus quenching temperature curves thus obtained, the anomaly near 550°C cannot be seen which has been reported by some workers. When the temperature of the specimen is changed, it takes a certain time until equilibrium in the ordered degree is reached. This is considered as the cause of the anomaly in specific heat of FeCo alloy.View full abstractDownload PDF (1694K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIt is well known that the mechanism of the reduction of oxides with gas depends often on the experimental conditions chosen. By the use of synthetic nickelferrite, the effect caused by the shape of samples on the reduction with hydrogen gas and the reduction process in the case of the hydrogen reduction of nickelferrite have been studied in the current investgation. The weight changes were measured by a thermobalance and the reduction process of nickelferrite was estimated from the data by an X-ray diffractometer. The experimental results obtained are summarized as follows: The fractional reduction, R, of nickelferrite increased parabolically with increasing of the time of the reduction. Furthermore, the function which is commonly used for the case of the reaction controlled by the interfacial areas, 1−(1−R)1⁄3, was proportional to the time of the reduction in the range from 0 to 82% reduction. The shape effect for the reduction mechanism was not so significant in the case of the hydrogen reduction of nickelferrite at 700°C. From the data of X-ray diffraction analysis, it is considered that the hydrogen reduction process of nickelferrite at 700°C may proceed in the order of the following three steps; 3NiFe2O4→3Ni+2Fe3O4, Fe3O4→3FeO, FeO→Fe.View full abstractDownload PDF (2169K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe effects of sulphur on the recrystallization of cold rolled 3.17%Al-Fe alloy sheets were investigated on the specimens with three different sulphur contents.
On primary recrystallization, the main component of the texture transformed from (100)[001] to (110)[001] with increasing sulphur content, where the latter was the same as the case of a 3.25%Si-Fe alloy sheet.
On secondary recrystallization, (100)[001] and (110)[001] components in the lower sulphur contents and (100)[001] component in the higher sulphur contents developed dominantely by consuming the matrix of the (111)[11\bar2] component.View full abstractDownload PDF (1545K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe effects of heat treatment on the yield stress, the stress-strain relationship, the deformation mode and the dislocation structure were studied in the alloy whose composition was close to the stoichiometric Cu2NiZn. Some of the specimens were initially water quenched from 800°C and then deformed in tension. The others were deformed after annealed at various temperatures.
The results obtained are as follows:
(1) The yield stress reaches a maximum at 300°∼400°C annealing and then decreases rapidly by annealing at temperatures above 400°C.
(2) The stress-strain curves for the quenched single crystals exhibit the prolonged stages I and II. The deformation proceeds by the propagation of Lüder’s band. On the other hand, the specimens annealed at 300° and 400°C show a high work hardening rate from the beginning of deformation. The behavior of yield stress after annealing resembles that for polycrystallines.
(3) Slip lines of the quenched single crystals are coarse and dislocations are arranged in the piled-up arrays. On the contrary, slip lines of the annealed specimens are extremely fine, and dislocations are distributed rather uniformly and contain many secondary dislocations.
(4) In the specimens annealed at 300° and 400°C, dislocation pairs, i.e. super lattice dislocations, are observed. The separation of pairs decreases as the annealing time increases.
(5) From these results, it is confirmed that the long range order is introduced by annealing of this alloy.View full abstractDownload PDF (2080K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe size and shape of G.P. zones in Al-Zn alloys were studied by means of the X-ray small angle scattering technique and transmission electron microscopy, and the following results were obtained.
(1) The shape of G.P. zones was changed from spherical to ellipsoidal when their radii exceeded about 32 Å.
(2) The ellipsoidal G.P. zones had long axes which were parallel to the ⟨111⟩ direction. The dimensions of G.P. zones were 32∼35 Å in short axis and 32∼150 Å in long axis, when the specimens were aged at room temperature.
(3) The size of G.P. zones in the quenched specimens were distributed fairly uniformly, but not so in the air-cooled specimens.
(4) When heated at high temperatures, the size of G.P. zones in the aged specimens becomes larger and the shape became ellipsoidal. The sizes of ellipsoidal G.P. zones were 35∼70 Å in short axis and 150∼500 Å in long axis. But no G.P. zones were observed after heating for 2 minutes at 150°C.View full abstractDownload PDF (848K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe yield stresses of Al-Zn single crystals containing G.P. zones were measured at 77°K as functions of the solute concentration and the size of G.P. zones. It was found that the solute concentration dependence of the yield stress was in good agreement with the theory of the stacking fault strengthening mechanism, but the zone size dependence of the yield stress did not agree with any theories.
The various models proposed for zone-hardening were compared with the experimental results, and the hardening model for Al-Zn alloys should be the one in which the attractive force acts between the zones and the dislocations. In this model, there are two cases in which the shear modulus or the stacking fault energy are different between the matrix and the zones.
The difference in the shear modulus could not account for the zone size dependence of the yield stress. It is found that the stacking fault strengthening is the zone hardening mechanism in the present case, but to account for the zone size dependence of the yield stress, it should be considered that the effective stacking fault width is smaller than the value calculated by Hirsch.View full abstractDownload PDF (1139K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe present report is related to the newly developed metallic spraying method by means of wire explosion.
In this report the surface roughness, hardness, component, structure and adhesion strenghth, etc. of spray coating of various metals by this spray method are investigated.
The results obtained are summarized as follows:
(1) The surface of spray coatings is smooth and RMS is 1∼5 μ. It shows small value as compared with RMS of 75∼125 μ in plasma flame spray.
(2) The hardness of spray coating of cemented carbides is lower than that of base materials.
But in other case, the hardness of spray coatings is higher.
(3) The components of cemented carbides (WC-Co system) in spray coating mainly consist of W2C and Co. The carbon content in a steel shows a decrease of about 30% after spraying.
(4) The adhesion strength is high, but it depends on the combinations of spray metals and base metals. In the case of using Cu as base materials, the adhesion strength is not so high. In the case of mild steel and brass it is as large as more than 200 kg/cm2.
(5) By optical microscopy and electron microscopy, it is ascertained that the spray coatings are comparatively compact, and adhesion is satisfactory.View full abstractDownload PDF (1307K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn order to know the electrochemical behaviours of Ti in the crevice, the weight loss, corrosion potential and galvanic current were measured for Ti in the crevice and on the open surface in boiling acid NH4Cl solution. Also, anodic polarization measurement for Ti in the crevice and on the open surface was conducted in boiling acid and neutral NH4Cl solutions. The results obtained were as follows.
In boiling acid NH4Cl solution containing a small amount of the oxidizing agent, titanium undergoes crevice corrosion in narrow gaps at points of contact with nonmetallic materials due to the depletion of the oxidant in the crevice.
In acid and neutral solutions containing more than 5 N NH4Cl, the current of Ti in the passive region in the crevice was much higher than that of Ti on the open surface, and a granular corrosion product mainly composed of TiO2 (rutile) was observed after anodic polarization measurement.
In anodic polarization of Ti in the crevice in boiling 5 N NaCl solution, a similar phenomenon to that in NH4Cl solution was observed, but not in Na2SO4 solution. Potential decay curves indicate that the corrosion product of Ti in the crevice in chloride media is less stable and easily activated than that of Ti on the open surface.
The results mentioned above suggest that the passive film formation is hindered and oxychloride TiOxCly is formed on Ti in the crevice in boiling neutral solution with higher Cl− ion concentration (5 N, 10 N) due to the depletion of H2O in the crevice, promoting crevice corrosion.View full abstractDownload PDF (1707K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSProlonged ageing behaviors in an Aluminum-5.06 wt% Zinc-0.94 wt% Magnesium alloy at 100°C have been investigated by the specific heat measurements and tensile tests. A large heat effect arising from the G.P. zones has been observed even after ageing for 10000 hours at 100°C. On the contrary, only a small energy change due to the intermediate precipitate has been detected.
Remarkable age-hardening has been observed. The maximum strength (0.2% proof stress) of about 24 kg/mm2 was obtained after ageing for 500 hours. The strength has decreased to the as-quenched value by heating at 250°C for 30 seconds (reversion), even after ageing to the maximum strength.
The serrated stress-strain curve has been obtained in the early stage of the ageing. This has been correlated to the age-hardening characteristics of the alloy.
The metastable equilibrium with respect to the zone and the role of the zone in the age-hardening has been discussed.View full abstractDownload PDF (1848K) -

(1) Although pits grow rapidly, they stop to grow very rapidly by forming a protective film in them.
(2) Usually crystal planes, such as {111} and {100}, tend to dissolve and appear predominently, but {110} plane does not appear so often when no stress is applied to the alloy.
(3) The electropolishing mechanism seems to exist in the pit growth process especially at the noble potential.

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe precipitation hardening behavior of Ni-2.5 wt%Be alloy has been investigated by means of hardness measurement, electrical resistivity measurement, and optical and transmission electron microscopy.
The results show that the precipitation sequence of this alloy is α (supersaturated solid solution)→G.P.zone→β′ (metastable phase)→β (stable phase).
The grain boundary reaction type of precipitation occurs at the grain boundary.
The high age-hardenability of the alloy is found to be caused by the formation of the G.P.zones and the metastable phase. The overageing of the alloy is due to the precipitation of the grain boundary reaction type and the coalescening of the Widmanstätten type precipitates.
The slow rate of decrease in electrical resistivity during the initial stage of the ageing is attributed to the formation of the G.P.zones and the metastable phase, and the rapid decrease, to the precipitation of the grain boundary reaction type or the Widmanstätten type.View full abstractDownload PDF (2122K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe surface tension, density and viscosity of PbO-K2O-SiO2 ternary melts have been measured in the temperature range 800° to 1200°C by the use of the dipping cylinder method, the Archimedean method and the counter-balanced-sphere method, respectively.
In the (PbO·SiO2)-K2O pseudo-binary system, the surface tension decreases with the addition of K2O. The temperature coefficient of surface tension changes from the negative to the positive sign with increasing amount of K2O. This characteristic phenomenon may be explained in terms of the production of a homopolar Pb-O bond in the melt with the addition of K2O.
The negative deviation from the additivity in molar volume and the decrement of viscosity with the addition of K2O indicate the bond breaking of SiO2 network and the production of descrete anions.
The apparent activation energy for viscous flow decreases with increasing content in the K2O in (PbO·SiO2)-K2O system. For the (PbO·SiO2)-(K2O·SiO2) pseudo-binary system, the activation energy shows a minimum value at about 10 mol%K2O.View full abstractDownload PDF (2149K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe 18-8 type stainless steels are known as materials difficult to machine. The causes and counter-measures, however, have never been studied in relation to the metallurgical factors of cemented carbides. Therefore, the wear processes of WC-TiC-10%Co alloy tools in the cutting of stainless steels were investigated with particular attention to the grain size of WC and β phases, and carbon content, titanium carbide and impurity contents.
The main results obtained were as follows:
(1) Different mechanisms between cratering wear and outside wear were found to exist, and clearance wear was caused by the plastic deformation of the tools.
(2) With increasing titanium carbide content, cratering wear, plastic deformation and clearance wear were all decreased with the exception of outside wear.
(3) In the case of high speed cutting, low carbon WC-10%TiC-10%Co alloy tools showed better resistance to all the wears than high carbon alloy tools. With increasing grain size of the β phase and decreasing grain size of the WC phase, the resistance to cratering and clearance wears was highly improved.
(4) In sum, it was found that the WC-TiC-Co alloy tools showing high resistance to the various wears in high speed cutting of stainless steels, should be developed in the alloys with low carbon content, fine grain size of WC and coarse β phases. These results may be applied to WC-TiC-TaC-Co alloy tools.View full abstractDownload PDF (1950K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe reasons why the strength of Cu-Zr-Cr alloys is superior to those of Cu-Zr and Cu-Cr alloys were investigated in relation to their aged structures by transmission electron microscopy. Three sorts of alloys, i.e., Cu-0.54%Zr-0.50%Cr, Cu-0.30%Zr and Cu-0.26%Cr alloys, were used in this study. In each alloy, specimens in the state of solution-treatment at 950°C and of cold-working by 83% after solution-treatment were prepared. Each specimen was vacuum-aged at various temperatures up to 700°C.
The results obtained were as follows:
(1) Under the same aging condition, two sorts of precipitates in Cu-Zr-Cr alloy, i.e., Cu3Zr and Cr, were finer and more densely distributed than the individual precipitate in each binary alloy, leading to the higher strength of the ternary alloy.
(2) The sequense of precipitation of the two sorts of precipitates corresponded to that of the precipitate in the binary alloys. Modes of precipitation were heterogeneous and homogeneous in the Cu-Zr and Cu-Cr alloys, respectively.
(3) In cold-worked state, the precipitate of Cu3Zr stabilized the worked structure of the Cu-Zr-Cr alloy due to preferential precipitation on the cell-walls in the same way as in the Cu-Zr alloys.View full abstractDownload PDF (2383K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe switching and sliding characteristics of Ag-C mixtures produced by carbonization of several resins such as vinyle, furan and phenol have been measured. The results obtained are as follows:
(1) The carbonized Ag-C mixtures have high resistance to erosion for switching and sliding contacts. Particularly, the Ag-C mixture produced by carbonization of vinyle chloride resin has excellent resistance to erosion and stability, the amount of erosion is one-fifth and one-tenth that of the sintered Ag-graphite mixture for switching contact and for sliding contact respectively. This may be due to the presence of AgCl which is produced by the reaction of decomposed chlorine and silver.
(2) The hardness of the carbonized Ag-C mixtures is higher than that of sintered Ag-graphite mixtures. The carbon is homogeneously dispersed and the rate of crystallization of the carbon depends on the carbonization temperature.View full abstractDownload PDF (850K)
