DEVELOPMENT OF HARDNESS IN A Fe- BASED NANO-COMPOSITE ALLOY
Authors
Abstract:
Achieving extreme hardness in the newly synthetic steel formed by converting from initial amorphous state to subse-quent crystalline structure –named as devitrification process- was studied in this research work. Results of TEM observa-tions and XRD tests showed that crystallized microstructure were made up four different nano-scale phases i.e., α-Fe, Fe 36 Cr12 Mo10 , Fe 3 C and Fe3 B. More, Vickers hardness testing revealed a maximum hardness of 18.6 GPa which is signifi-cantly harder than existing hardmetals. Detailed kinetic and structural studies have been proof that two key factors were contributed to achieve this extreme hardness supersaturation of transition metal alloying elements (especially Nb) and also reduction in the structure to the nano-size crystals.

Hardness and Tensile Strength Study on Al356 Alloy Matrix-nano Al2o3 Particle Reiforced Composite
Additions of high modulus nano particles to Aluminum alloys offer the potential to develop a lightweight composite with high mechanical properties. It is extremely difficult to disperse nano-sized ceramic particles uniformly in molten metal. In order to investigate the effect of nano-alumina on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composite, a new method was used in stir casting to a...

Crystallization of α – Fe phase during annealing process of Fe55Cr18Mo7B16C4 bulk amorphous alloy has been evaluated by X- ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetric tests and TEM observations in this research. In effect, crystallization mechanism and activation energy of crystallization were evaluated using DSC tests in four different heating rates (10, 20, 30, 40 K/min). A two -st...

The evolution of nano-scale Fe particles precipitated in a Cu–Fe alloy has been examined from the viewpoint of the relationship between the microstructure and magnetic properties, using conventional, high-resolution and Lorentz electron microscopy, and magnetic measurements. It has been revealed that spherical Fe particles have a tendency to align along the <001> direction in a Cu matrix at the...
