The results reveal that with the addition of Hf and Dy, the Ni2AIHf Heusler phase and NisDy phase form along the NiAI/Cr(Mo) phase boundaries in intercellular region. By the injection casting method, some Ni2AIHf Heusler phase and NisDy phase transform into Hf and Dy solid solutions, respectively. Moreover, the microstructure of the alloy gets good optimization, which can be characterized by the fine interlamellar spacing, high proportion of eutectic cell area and homogeneously distributed fine Ni2AIHf, NisDy, Hf solid solution and Dy solid solutions. Compared with conventional-cast alloy, the room temperature mechanical properties of injection-cast alloy are improved obviously.展开更多

The hardness, toughness and bending strength of the composite at ambient temperature are a little higher than those of Dy-α-sialon.while the bending strength is maintained up to 1000℃ and about 2 times more than that of Dy-α-sialon at the same temperature. The fracture surfaces show that the grain size of the composite is smaller than that of Dy-α-sialon, and both Of them have predominately transgranular mode of fracture. It is believed that the decrease of the bending strength of Dy-α-sialon at elevated temperature is caused by the viscous flow of the grain boundary phase, while the addition of nanosize SiC particles effectively increases the viscosity of the grain boundary phase and therefore prevents the strength loss of Dy-α-sialon/nano-size SiC composites at elevated temperature展开更多
