The recrystallization and grain growth behaviour of IN718 alloy additively manufactured by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is presented herein. effects three different temperatures (1050, 1150 1250 °C) holding times (15, 45 90 min) were investigated. texture evolution the samples was recorded via electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). as-built sample composed bowl-shaped melt pools, a chessbo...

This study addresses the crystallization and multiple melting behavior of a new high temperature semicrystalline polyimide, which is based on an ether diamine (TPER or 1,3 (4) APB) and BTDA dianhydride, both of which are commercially available. It also uses phthalic anhydride to endcap the chains thus improving thermal stability. The polyimide displays a Tg at ca. 230°C and two prominent meltin...

20Mn5 steel is widely used in the manufacture of heavy hydro-generator shaft forging due to its strength, toughness, and wear resistance. However, the hot deformation and recrystallization behaviors of 20Mn5 steel compressed under a high temperature were not studied. For this article, hot compression experiments under temperatures of 850-1200 °C and strain rates of 0.01 s-1-1 s-1 were conducted...

Abstract Tungsten and tungsten-based alloys are the leading material choices for divertor plasma facing components (PFCs) in future fusion reactors. Recrystallization may occur when they undergo high heat loads, drastically modifying predesigned grain structures associated desired mechanical properties. However, influence of recrystallization on thermal fatigue behavior tungsten PFCs still rema...

The current understanding of the fundamentals of recrystallization is summarized. This includes understanding the as-deformed state. Several aspects of recrystallization are described: nucleation and growth, the development of misorientation during deformation, continuous, dynamic, and geometric dynamic recrystallization, particle effects, and texture. This article is authored by the leading ex...
