MTMoCr is a kind of Mo-Cr alloy cast iron often used to make automobile panel dies. To study high-speed machining process of automobile panel dies, the material’s elastic modulus and rupture critical values of MTMoCr at 20 -800 were studied based on the high temperature elongation test. The material’s stress-strain diagram at various temperatures set-points (20 -500 ) and various strain-rates (...

A powder of equiatomic CoCrFeNiCu high entropy alloy (HEA) was prepared by short-term (120 min) energy ball milling (HEBM). Our structural and chemical analysis showed that microsized particles fcc with a grain size 8 nm were obtained after 120 min HEBM at 694/1388 rpm. The structural/phase evolution HEA its thermal stability explored high-temperature XRD 600 °C, 800 °C 1000 DSC up to 1500 thro...

The Earth's core is mostly an Fe-Ni alloy with a fraction of light elements (~10 wt%, mainly O, S and Si). Accumulation of these light elements under the core-mantle boundary (CMB) may lead to chemical stratification. Seismic observations have been presented both for and against the stratification in the topmost region of the outer core. Here we investigate the structure under the CMB using dif...

High temperature high vacuum electrostatic levitation was used to determine the complete time– temperature–transformation ~TTT! diagram of the Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10.0Be22.5 bulk metallic glass forming alloy in the undercooled liquid state. This is the first report of experimental data on the crystallization kinetics of a metallic system covering the entire temperature range of the undercooled ...

In order to generate homogeneous high temperatures at high pressures, a ring-shaped graphite heater has been developed to resistively heat diamond-anvil cell (DAC) samples up to 1300 K. By putting the heater in direct contact with the diamond anvils, this graphite heater design features the following advantages: (1) efficient heating: sample can be heated to 1300 K while the DAC body temperatur...

In this paper, we present our research into the interruption performance of vacuum circuit breakers in aviation intermediate-frequency (360 Hz to 800 Hz) power supply systems. Intermediate-frequency vacuum arc experiments were carried out in interrupters with a diameter of 41 mm and CuCr50 alloy contact material. The results show that, as the frequency and peak value of the current increase, bo...

Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Al–Sc with Rare-Earth Element or Al2O3 Additions Richard Albert Karnesky, Jr. Aluminum alloys strengthened with coherent (L12), nanosize Al3Sc precipitates are structural materials that have outstanding strength at ambient and elevated temperatures. They are creep resistant at 300 ◦C and exhibit a threshold stress, below which creep is not measurable....

Magnetic nanoparticles are of great importance particularly in the field of biomedicine as well as nanotechnology and nano materials science and technology. Here, we synthesise magnetic alloy-filling carbon nanoparticles (MA@C NPs) via the following two-step procedure; (1) Irradiation of a laser beam of 266 nm wavelength into super-critical benzene, in which both ferrocene and cobaltocene are d...

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the relationship between the structural and corrosion properties of an ISO 5832-9 biomedical alloy modified with titanium dioxide (TiO2) layers. These layers were obtained via the sol-gel method by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide in isopropanol solution. To obtain TiO2 layers with different structural properties, the coated samples wer...

Ein Leitartikel im 4. Heft des Jahres 2005 der GMS ZMed Ausbild [1] stellte mit Genugtuung fest, dass die Gesellschaft für Medizinische Ausbildung (GMA) sich in einer überaus dynamischen Entwicklung befand, sich die Mitgliederzahl in den zwei Jahren zuvor auf 400 verdoppelt hatte und insbesondere jüngereMitglieder die Aktivitäten der GMA belebten, darunter auchmehr als 70 Studierende. Die Wahrn...
