Couple plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP AES), X ray diffractometry(XRD), scanning electronic microscopy(SEM), microhardness test and rapid heating cooling method were adopted to detect the properties of the amorphous Fe Ni Cr deposit, such as composition, crystalline structure, micrograph, hardness, and adherence between deposit and substrate. The effects of the operating parameters on the electrodeposit of the amorphous Fe Ni Cr alloy were discussed in detail. The results show that a 8.7?μm thick mirror like amorphous Fe Ni Cr alloy deposit, with Vicker’s hardness of 530 and composition of 45%~55% Fe, 33%~37% Ni, 9%~23% Cr was obtained by electroplating for 20?min at room temperature(10~30?℃), cathode current 10~16?A/dm 2, pH=1.0~3.0. The XRD patterns show that there only appears a broad hump around 2 θ of 41?°~47?°for the amorphous Fe Ni Cr alloy deposit, while the SEM micrographs show that the deposit contains only a few fine cracks but no pinholes.展开更多

The results showed that when the annealing temperature was 673 K, both the At and the Ms temperatures increased appreciably as the prestrain increased, the As temperature increased slightly with increasing prestrain; the resistivity difference at 303 K between the heating and cooling curve also increased with increasing prestrain, which agreed with the recovery strain. The shape memory effect in Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni shape memory alloy is caused by the stress-induced γ→ε martensite transformation and its reverse transformation. When the prestrain was 10%, the Ms temperature decreased remarkably as the annealing temperature increased.展开更多

The results showed that the second phase particles rich in chromium, manganese and silicon precipitate during aging, and thereby increase the hardness and strength of the alloy. The shape recovery ratio can be remarkably improved by aging and a maximum value can be obtained at 1223 K, which is 68% higher than that of the specimen in solid solution state. When the aging temperature is below 1223 K, the amount of second phase particles increases as the aging temperature increases. The size of austenite grain increases with increasing aging temperature. When the temperature is over 1223 K, the second phase particles can not precipitate. The lack of second phase particles and the increase of grain size make the hardness and shape recovery ratio drastically decrease, when the temperature is over 1223 K.展开更多

The Fe-3Cr-0.5Mo, Fe-1.5Cr-0.2Mo, and Fe-0.85 Mo pre-alloyed powders were mixed with 0.4wt%, 0.6wt%, and 0.8wt% C and compacted at 500, 600, and 700 MPa, respectively. The compacts were sintered at 1473 K for 1 h and then cooled at 6 K/min. Ferrite with pearlite was mostly observed in the sintered alloys with 0.4wt% C, whereas a carbide network was also present in the alloys with 0.8wt% C. Graphite at prior particle boundaries led to deterioration of the mechanical properties of alloys with 0.8wt% C, whereas no significant induction hardening was achieved in alloys with 0.4wt% C. Among the investigated samples, alloys with 0.6wt% C exhibited the highest strength and ductility and were found to be suitable for induction hardening. The hardening was carried out at a frequency of 2.0 kHz for 2–3 s. A case depth of 2.5 mm was achieved while maintaining the bulk(interior) hardness of approximately HV 230. A martensitic structure was observed on the outer periphery of the samples. The hardness varied from HV 600 to HV 375 from the sample surface to the interior of the case hardened region. The best combination of properties and hardening depth was achieved in case of the Fe-1.5Cr-0.2Mo alloy with 0.6wt% C.展开更多

These results show that in freckle areas a large number of M6C, μ and P phases precipitate in grain boundaries even within grain due to the enrichment and segregation of Mo and C during solidification, which results in small grains in freckle areas. Equilibrium phase and liquid segregation calculation can give an reasonable interpretation of the freckle feature for this alloy.展开更多

A comparison experimentwas carried out between the as-quenched and annealed States (400℃/2h) of the amorphousalloy. The results show that, for both states of the amorphous alloy in the temperature rangeof 200~350℃, the diffusivity and permeability of hydrogen are in agreement with Arrheniusrelationship, there does not exist H-trapping effect, and the activation energies of diffusion andpermeation almost keep the same.展开更多
