Composite material based on Fe3Si micro-particles and Mn-Zn nano-ferrite was prepared using powder metallurgy technology. The sol-gel followed by autocombustion process was used for synthesis of Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 ferrite. 3 wt.% of mechanically milled ferrite was mixed with Fe3Si powder alloy. Mixed micro-nano powder system was homogenized by the Resonant Acoustic Mixing using ResodynLabRAM Mixer...

We report the design and methodology for functionalization of the surface of small Co-ferrite nanoparticles with a mean size of up to 5.0 nm through the attachment of vitamin C molecules initiating [AuCl4]reduction and the subsequent deposition of gold. By this method, Co-ferrite-Au nanoparticles have been fabricated for the first time in a simple and controllable manner, consisting of the dete...

Magnetic powder of Sr-ferrite was prepared by conventional and sol-gel auto-combustion methods. In conventional method, strontium carbonate and ferric oxide powders were mixed together and then mixture was calcined. In sol-gel auto-combustion method, a solution containing strontium nitrate, ferric nitrate and citric acid was heated until the combustion took place automatically; then, as-burnt p...

MnZnFe2O4 ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method using a microwave heating system at temperature of 100 C. X-ray diffraction reveals the samples as prepared are pure ferrite nanocrystalline phase, transmission electron microscopy image analysis shows particles are in agglomeration state with an average size of about 10 nm, furthermore, crystal size of samples are increas...

the microstructure of dual phase steels can be considered as a matrix of ferrite phase reinforced by martensite particles. recent measurements show that the mechanical properties of the ferrite phase are changed with the distance from the martensite grains. in this paper, a new method has been proposed to consider this phenomenon in finite element modeling of dual phase steels microstructure. i...

The decomposition of austenite to ferrite or cementite begins at the equilibrium phase boundary of austenite/ (ferrite austenite) or austenite/(cementite austenite) in binary Fe–C phase diagram. The temperature values on the phase boundaries of austenite/(ferrite austenite) and austenite/(cementite austenite) at a certain carbon content are called Ae3 and Acm temperatures of the steel, respecti...

INTRODUCTION Stainless steel welds characteristically consist of a two-phase austenite plus ferrite microstructure. Ferrite levels may vary from a few percent in austenitic stainless steel welds to more than 50% in duplex stainless steel welds. The ability to predict the ferrite content in these welds is essential for many reasons. To a large extent, the final ferrite content determines a weldm...

Little is known about the effect of stress on the development of microstructure in steel welds. This paper contains an assessment of published data together with a description of the theory that is available for dealing with stress–affected transformations in steels. Attention is focused on those transformations which have the greatest potential for interaction with an externally applied stress...
