The XRD analysis, microstructure observations, and the theoretical calculations showed that the Mo-rich M2C-type precipitates in the Fe-Ni based HSLTE alloy dissolve completely at about 1100℃. The average grain size of the studied alloys increases from 14 to 46 μm in the temperature range of 1050 to 1200℃. The microhardness of the matrix decreases gust for the sake of solid-solution treatment, but then increases later with increasing solution temperature because of the solution strengthening effect.展开更多

The microstructure, phase distribution, chemical composition profile and microhardness along the coating layer depth were investigated. Shear strength of the coating was also tested. Microanalysis shows that the coating is consist of γ-Ni solution and γ-Ni+Ni3B lamellar eutectic, as well as small amount of Cr5B3 particles. Diffusion induced metallurgical bonding occurs at the coating/substrate interfaces, and the higher the temperature, the more sufficient elements diffused, the broader interfusion region and the larger bonding strength, but it has an optimum value. And the bonding strength at the interface can be enable to reach 250-270 MPa, which is nearly the same as that of processed by flame spray. The microhardness along the coating layer depth shows a gradient distribution manner.展开更多

Although numerous models involved with magnetism have been proposed to explain the Elinvar anomaly, some of the puzzles concerning the anomaly have not been fully understood. In this work, a remarkable discrepancy between the inflection temperature of modulus and the Curie temperature in a typical Fe-Ni-Cr Elinvar alloy was found,challenging the magnetic mechanism for Elinvar anomaly. Microstructural characterization and dynamic mechanical analysis demonstrate the occurrence of a strain glass transition with continuous formation of nanodomains. Accompanying such a transition, the gradual softening in the elastic modulus of austenite offsets the modulus hardening due to the vibrational anharmonicity of nanodomains upon cooling, leading to the Elinvar effect. As a result, the inflection temperature of modulus corresponds to the initiation of nanodomains' formation instead of magnetic transition. Our findings specify the association of Elinvar anomaly with structural aspects, and provide new insights into the mechanism of Elinvar anomaly in Fe-Ni based alloy.展开更多
