The effect of impact velocity on EC behavior of 17 4PH steels at different aging temperatures was analyzed. Surface micrographs of the specimens after E C test were observed by using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that under the condition of the same solution heat treatment, when aging temperature ranged from 400 ℃ to 610℃, the hardness reached the highest value near the temperature 460℃. The characteristics of E-C for 17-4PH stainless steels at different aging temperatures were as follows: pure erosion (wear) was dominant, corrosion was subordinate and at the same time corrosion promoted erosion. The effect of aging temperature on E-C rate of 17-4PH steels was not significant at low impact velocity, but it was found that E-C resistance of 17-4PH steels aged near 460℃ was the most excellent due to the best precipitation strengthening effect of fine and dispersed e-Cu phase. With a prerequisite of appropriate corrosion resistance, the precipitation hardening could significantly improve the E-C resistance of the materials.展开更多

It is shown that the thermal cycling causes the decreases in M8 and Af temperatures in Ti50Pd50-xNix, (x=10, 20, 30) alloys, but no obvious thermal cycling effect was observed in Ti50Pd50Pd40Ni10 alloys and the aging effect shows a curious feature, i.e., the Af temperature does not saturate even after relatively long time aging, which is considered to be due to the occurrence of recovery recrystallization during aging.展开更多

Itwas found that the thicker gold plating, the less discoloration degree for ceramic packages.Non-cyanide gold plating performed better resistance to high-temperature aging than cyanide goldplating. The relationship between the gold plating thickness and the amount of diffused Ni to thegold plating of ceramic packages with Au/Ni and Au/Ni-Co platings after heating at 420℃ for 15 minwas also studied. When the gold plating thickness reach 2.0 μm and 1.6 μm for Au/Ni and Au/Ni-Coplating systems, respectively, no discoloration was observed on the gold plating surface of cavity,and the corresponding diffused Ni amounts (mass fraction) are 1.0% and 0.4%, while the diffused Coto the gold plating is 0.04%.展开更多

The electrical resistance measurements of the nanostructured Ag bulk samples obtained by compacting the Ag powders after heat treatments showed a change in the sign of a with dP and dc. When dp and dc are smaller or equal to 18 and 11 nm below room temperature or 20 and 12 nm above room temperature, respectively, the sign of the temperature coefficient of resistivity changes from positive to negative. The negative a arises mainly from the high resistivity induced by the particle interfaces with very lowly ordered or even disordered structure, a large volume fraction of interfaces and impurities existing in the interfaces, and the quantum size effect appearing in the nano-Ag grains.展开更多

Microstructure was analyzed by means of optical microscopy, transmission e leetron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrum analysis. Gibbs free energy of Nia Ti and Fez Mo at different temperature was calculated by Thermal-calc software. The microstructure of weld metal in as- welded state is martensite. The yield strength of weld metal after 430 ℃ aging process may increase to 1561 MPa from 890 MPa in as-welded state, which is ascribed to the formation of spinodal constitute and GP zones. After 480 ℃ aging process, there are great deal of NiaTi precipitates in the martensite matrix and 10% reverted austenite phase in the cellular grain boundary, and the yield strength increases to 1 801 MPa. After aging process at 580 ℃ , there are many Fe2 Mo precipitates in the martensite matrix and 30%o reverted austenite phase in the cellular grain boundary, and the yield strength is 1329 MPa, which ls the lowest among the three cases. The phase transformation may also influence the toughness. It is found that precipitates make the toughness decrease and reverted austenite increases it. The mechanism of phase transformation on strength and toughness is discussed.展开更多

Potentiodynamic polarization curves were applied to study the effects of Nb addition and aging temperature on corrosion resistance. The results demonstrated that eutectoid decomposition of the ferritic phase (δ → σ + γ2) was observed at 700-900 ℃. The content of σ-phase first increased and then decreased in the steels, where the maximum content was obtained at 800 ℃, indicating that the highest hardness occurred at 800 ℃ accordingly. The hardness of Nb-containing steels was significantly higher than that of Nb-free steels. The corrosion resistance of heatresistant cast steels in various aging temperatures was different due to the formation of σ-phase. Both Cr-rich carbides and σ-phase were harmful to the corrosion resistance, while Cr-rich carbides were the main factor. Nb-containing heat-resistant cast steels exhibited superior corrosion resistance, as Cr-rich carbides were reduced and the corrosion products of Nb-rich slowed down the formation of steady-state pits.展开更多

文摘The change of the temperature coefficient of resistivity (a) with the particle size, dp, and the grain size, dc, in the nanostructured Ag bulk samples was investigated. dp and dc were controlled by heating the nano-Ag powders over the temperature range from 393 to 453 K. The electrical resistance measurements of the nanostructured Ag bulk samples obtained by compacting the Ag powders after heat treatments showed a change in the sign of a with dP and dc. When dp and dc are smaller or equal to 18 and 11 nm below room temperature or 20 and 12 nm above room temperature, respectively, the sign of the temperature coefficient of resistivity changes from positive to negative. The negative a arises mainly from the high resistivity induced by the particle interfaces with very lowly ordered or even disordered structure, a large volume fraction of interfaces and impurities existing in the interfaces, and the quantum size effect appearing in the nano-Ag grains.
