Ti alloys have high melting temperature and affinity for oxygen, which makes Ti alloys difficult to be processed. The Co addition reduces the melting temperature and Ti-Co alloy was sintered at lower temperatures. The electrochemical corrosion behaviour of the specimens was examined in the artificial saliva solution. The effects of Co content of the alloy, the p H value and fluoride concentration of the artificial saliva solution on the electrochemical corrosion properties of the specimens were investigated. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the specimens were examined. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results indicate that the corrosion resistance of the specimens decreases at high fluoride concentrations and low p H value. The defect density increases with increasing the fluoride concentration and decreasing the p H value of artificial saliva according to Mott-Schottky analysis.展开更多

The proposed content of TiO_2（0, 4%, 8%, 12%, mass fraction） was blended to Al-15% SiC composites through powder metallurgy（P/M） process. Wear test was conducted using pin-on-disc apparatus under dry sliding conditions. Fabricated preforms were characterized using X-ray diffractometer（XRD）, scanning electron microscope（SEM） and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer（EDS）. Optical micrographs of the composite preforms display uniform distribution of TiO_2 throughout the matrix. Quantitative results indicate that wear resistance and microhardness increase with the increase of TiO_2 content. SEM images unveil that high wear resistance is attributed to high dislocation density of deformed planes and high hardness of TiO_2. SEM images of wear debris display gradual reduction in mean size of debris when TiO_2 content increases. EDS spectra confirm the presence of oxide layer which obviously reduces the effective area of contact between the sliding surfaces thereby lowers the wear loss of composites. The observation concludes that delamination and adhesive wear are the predominant mechanisms.展开更多

Results show that,under dynamic loading,the high temperature strength of the PM TiAl intermetallics is higher than that under quasi-static loading, and the ductile to brittle transition temperature(DBTT) increases with the increase of strain rate. Formation of twinning and stacking faults is the main deformation mechanism during dynamic loading. The work hardening rates of the PM TiAl intermetallics are nearly insensitive to strain rate and temperature at high strain rates(800-1600 s-1)and high temperatures(650-850 ℃). Zerilli-Armstrong model is successfully used to describe the dynamic flowing behavior of the PM TiAl intermetallics. In general, the PM TiAl intermetallics are found to have promising impact properties, suitable for high-temperature and high-impact applications.展开更多

The effects of increasing SiC content and number of layers of Al2024/SiC FGMs on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composite were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analyses indicated that Al and SiC were dominant components as well as others such as Al4C3, CuAl2, and CuMgAl2展开更多

SEM （scanning electron microscopy）, OM （optical microscopy） and EDS （energy dispersive spectroscopy） were employed to examine the chemical composition and microstructure of the as-deposited sections. Vickers hardness tests were then applied to characterize the mechanical properties of the deposit samples which were fabricated using pre-mixed elemental powders. The EDS line scans indicated that the chemical composition of the samples was homogenous across the deposit. After significant analysis, some differences were observed among two sets of deposit samples which varied in the particle size of the mixing Ti-6wt.%Al-4wt.%V powder. It could be found that the set with similar particle number for Ti, Al and V powder made composition much more stable and could easily get industry qualified Ti-6Al-4V components.展开更多
