Effect of Surface Densification on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Powder Metallurgical Gears by Using a Surface Rolling Process.

ABSTRACT: Powder metallurgy (PM) components are widely used in the auto industry due to the advantage of net-shape forming, low cost, and high efficiency. Still, usage of PM components is limited in the auto industry when encountering rigorous situations, like heavy load, due to lower strength, hardness, wear resistance, and other properties compared to wrought components due to the existence of massive pores in the PM components. In this study, through combining the powder metallurgy process and rolling process, the pores in the PM components were decreased and a homogenous densified layer was formed on the surface, which resulted in the enhancement of the strength, hardness, wear resistance, and other properties, which can expand its range of application. In this paper, we study the impact of different rolling feeds on the performance of the components' surfaces. We found that with the increase of the rolling feed, the depth of the densified layer increased.

Effect of Processing Route on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties in Single-Roll Angular-Rolling.

Project description:This paper reports the effect of the processing route on the microstructure and mechanical properties in the pure copper sheets processed by single-roll angular-rolling (SRAR). The SRAR process was repeated up to six passes in two processing routes, called routes A and C in equal-channel angular pressing. As the number of passes increased, the heterogeneous evolution of hardness and microstructural heterogeneities between the core and surface regions gradually became intensified in both processing routes. In particular, route A exhibited more prominent partial grain refinement and dislocation localization on the core region than route C. The finite element analysis revealed that the intense microstructural heterogeneities observed in route A were attributed to effective shear strain partitioning between the core and surface regions by the absence of redundant strain. On the other hand, route C induced reverse shearing and cancellation of shear strain over the entire thickness, leading to weak shear strain partitioning and delayed grain refinement. Ultimately, this work suggests that route A is the preferred option to manufacture reverse gradient structures in that the degree of shear strain partitioning and microstructural heterogeneity between the core and surface regions is more efficiently intensified with increasing the number of passes.

Effect of Rolling Temperature on Microstructure Evolution and Mechanical Properties of AISI316LN Austenitic Stainless Steel.

Project description:The impacts of rolling temperature on phase transformations and mechanical properties were investigated for AISI 316LN austenitic stainless steel subjected to rolling at cryogenic and room temperatures. The microstructure evolution and the mechanical properties were investigated by means of optical, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy, an X-ray diffractometer, microhardness tester, and tensile testing system. Results showed that strain-induced martensitic transformation occurred at both deformation temperatures, and the martensite volume fraction increased with the deformation. Compared with room temperature rolling, cryorolling substantially enhanced the martensite transformation rate. At 50% deformation, it yielded the same fraction as the room temperature counterpart at 90% strain, while at 70%, it totally transformed the austenite to martensite. The strength and hardness of the stainless steel increased remarkably with the deformation, but the corresponding elongation decreased dramatically. Meanwhile, the tensile fracture morphology changed from a typical ductile rupture to a mixture of ductile and quasi-cleavage fracture. The phase transformation and deformation mechanisms differed at two temperatures, with the martensite deformation contributing to the former, and austenite deformation to the latter. Orientations between the transformed martensite and its parent phase followed the K?S (Kurdjumov?Sachs) relationship.

Powder plasma spheroidization treatment and the characterization of microstructure and mechanical properties of SS 316L powder and L-PBF builds.

Project description:A plasma spheroidization treatment was applied to stock stainless steel 316L powder for additive manufacturing. The normal and treated powders were compared both in the powder state as well as in the resulting laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) builds. The plasma spheroidization process slightly increased treated powder aspect ratio and sphericity and shifted the size distribution to larger diameters relative to the normal powder. The normal powder was austenitic in nature whereas the plasma spheroidization process introduced a small fraction (∼3.5 vol %) of ferrite in the treated powder. Ferrite in the powder was not retained in the printed samples and was not shown to negatively affect the build quality. Porosity areal fraction was generally smaller in the treated powder builds. The normal powder builds had a 6% higher yield strength than treated, however the scatter was significantly larger in the 45° and horizontal orientations compared to the treated powder builds.

Influence of Glass Silica Waste Nano Powder on the Mechanical and Microstructure Properties of Alkali-Activated Mortars.

Project description:The recycling of millions of tons of glass bottle waste produced each year is far from optimal. In the present work, ground blast furnace slag (GBFS) was substituted in fly ash-based alkali-activated mortars (AAMs) for the purpose of preparing glass bottle waste nano-powder (BGWNP). The AAMs mixed with BGWNP were subsequently subjected to assessment in terms of their energy consumption, economic viability, and mechanical and chemical qualities. Besides affording AAMs better mechanical qualities and making them more durable, waste recycling was also observed to diminish the emissions of carbon dioxide. A more than 6% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions, an over 16% increase in compressive strength, better durability and lower water absorption were demonstrated by AAM consisting of 5% BGWNP as a GBFS substitute. By contrast, lower strength was exhibited by AAM comprising 10% BGWNP. The conclusion reached was that the AAMs produced with BGWNP attenuated the effects of global warming and thus were environmentally advantageous. This could mean that glass waste, inadequate for reuse in glass manufacturing, could be given a second life rather than being disposed of in landfills, which is significant as concrete remains the most commonplace synthetic material throughout the world.

Effect of Surface Mechanical Treatments on the Microstructure-Property-Performance of Engineering Alloys.

Project description:Fatigue is a dominant failure mechanism of several engineering components. One technique for increasing the fatigue life is by inducing surface residual stress to inhibit crack initiation. In this review, a microstructural study under various bulk (such as severe plastic deformation) and surface mechanical treatments is detailed. The effect of individual microstructural feature, residual stress, and strain hardening on mechanical properties and fatigue crack mechanisms are discussed in detail with a focus on nickel-based superalloys. Attention is given to the gradient microstructure and interface boundary behavior for the mechanical performance. It is recommended that hybrid processes, such as shot peening (SP) followed by deep cold rolling (DCR), could enhance fatigue life. The technical and scientific understanding of microstructural features delineated here could be useful for developing materials for fatigue performance.

Data on processing of Ti-25Nb-25Zr β-titanium alloys via powder metallurgy route: Methodology, microstructure and mechanical properties.

Project description:The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Cyclic Shear behavior of conventional and harmonic structure-designed Ti-25Nb-25Zr β-titanium alloy: Back-stress hardening and twinning inhibition" (Dirras et al., 2017) [1]. The datasheet describes the methods used to fabricate two β-titanium alloys having conventional microstructure and so-called harmonic structure (HS) design via a powder metallurgy route, namely the spark plasma sintering (SPS) route. The data show the as-processed unconsolidated powder microstructures as well as the post-SPS ones. The data illustrate the mechanical response under cyclic shear loading of consolidated alloy specimens. The data show how electron back scattering diffraction(EBSD) method is used to clearly identify induced deformation features in the case of the conventional alloy.

Effect of Multi-Pass Ultrasonic Surface Rolling on the Mechanical and Fatigue Properties of HIP Ti-6Al-4V Alloy.

Project description:The main purpose of this paper was to investigate the effect of a surface plastic deformation layer introduced by multi-pass ultrasonic surface rolling (MUSR) on the mechanical and fatigue properties of HIP Ti-6Al-4V alloys. Some microscopic analysis methods (SEM, TEM and XRD) were used to characterize the modified microstructure in the material surface layer. The results indicated that the material surface layer experienced a certain extent plastic deformation, accompanied by some dense dislocations and twin generation. Moreover, surface microhardness, residual stress and roughness values of samples treated by MUSR were also greatly improved compared with that of untreated samples. Surface microhardness and compressive residual stress were increased to 435 HV and -1173 MPa, respectively. The minimum surface roughness was reduced to 0.13 μm. The maximum depth of the surface hardening layer was about 55 μm. However, the practical influence depth was about 450 μm judging from the tensile and fatigue fracture surfaces. The ultimate tensile strength of the MUSR-treated sample increased to 990 MPa from the initial 963 MPa. The fatigue strength of the MUSR-treated sample was increased by about 25% on the base of 10⁷ cycles, and the lifetime was prolonged from two times to two orders of magnitude at the applied stress amplitudes of 650-560 MPa. The improved mechanical and fatigue properties of MUSR-treated samples should be attributed to the combined effects of the increased microhardness and compressive residual stress, low surface roughness, grain refinement and micro-pore healing in the material surface-modified layer.

Hybrid Cements: Mechanical Properties, Microstructure and Radiological Behavior.

Project description:The use of more eco-efficient cements in concretes is one of the keys to ensuring construction industry sustainability. Such eco-efficient binders often contain large but variable proportions of industrial waste or by-products in their composition, many of which may be naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORMs). This study explored the application of a new gamma spectrometric method for measuring radionuclide activity in hybrid alkali-activated cements from solid 5 cm cubic specimens rather than powder samples. The research involved assessing the effect of significant variables such as the nature of the alkaline activator, reaction time and curing conditions to relate the microstructures identified to the radiological behavior observed. The findings showed that varying the inputs generated pastes with similar reaction products (C-S-H, C-A-S-H and (N,C)-A-S-H) but different microstructures. The new gamma spectrometric method for measuring radioactivity in solid 5 cm cubic specimens in alkaline pastes was found to be valid. The variables involved in hybrid cement activation were shown to have no impact on specimen radioactive content. The powder samples, however, emanated 222Rn (a descendent of 226Ra), possibly due to the deformation taking place in fly ash structure during alkaline activation. Further research would be required to explain that finding.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of different keratinous horns.

Project description:Animal horns play an important role during intraspecific combat. This work investigates the microstructure and mechanical properties of horns from four representative ruminant species: the bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis), domestic sheep (Ovis aries), mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus) and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), aiming to understand the relation between evolved microstructures and mechanical properties. Microstructural similarity is found where disc-shaped keratin cells attach edge-to-edge along the growth direction of the horn core (longitudinal direction) forming a lamella; multiple lamellae are layered face to face along the impact direction (radial direction, perpendicular to horn core growth direction), forming a wavy pattern surrounding a common feature, the tubules. Differences among species include the number and shape of the tubules, the orientation of aligned lamellae and the shape of keratin cells. Water absorption tests reveal that the pronghorn horn has the largest water-absorbing ability due to the presence of nanopores in the keratin cells. The loading direction (compressive and tensile) and level of hydration vary among the horns from different species. The differences in mechanical properties among species may relate to their different fighting behaviours: high stiffness and strength in mountain goat to support the forces during stabbing; high tensile strength in pronghorn for interlocked pulling; impact energy absorption properties in domestic and bighorn sheep to protect the skull during butting. These design rules based on evolutionary modifications among species can be applied in synthetic materials to meet different mechanical requirements.

Effect of Oxide Particles on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of the 45 Carbon Structural Steel.

Project description:Striking difference in density between the oxide and the steel results in difficulty in preparing oxide dispersion strengthened steel with large size parts or materials. In this research, Al2O3 and TiO2 particles were initially milled with the 20 steel, and then the mixture was heated to a molten state to form a master alloy, which was used as a raw material for further preparation of the object steel. It was found that homogeneous distribution of the oxide particles was obtained in the mass production of the steel. Moreover, the obtained 45 carbon structural steel presents fine microstructures, together with improved mechanical properties, especially the impact ductility. This should be attributable to the transformation from the introduced micro-size oxide particles to the nano ones, which act as heterogeneous nucleants that play an important role in grain refinement and dispersion strengthening for the steel, during the remelting of the master alloy.
