the evolution of texture was discussed during the formation of ultra-fine and nano grains in a magnesium alloy severely deformed through accumulative back extrusion (abe). the microstructure and texture obtained after applying multiple deformation passes at temperatures of 100 and 250°c were characterized. the results showed that after single abe pass at 100°c an ultrafine/nano grained microstr...

The reaction between aqueous Fe(II) and Fe(III) oxides is extremely complex, and can catalyze Fe(II)-Fe(III) electron transfer, exchange of Fe atoms between the aqueous and solid phases, mineral transformation, and contaminant reduction. Together, these processes represent a phenomenon referred to as Fe(II)-catalyzed Fe oxide recrystallization, which has been observed under controlled condition...

In this study, the grain boundary character and texture of 50% and 90% cold-rolled FePd alloy was investigated during recrystallization at 700 °C. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) measurements were performed on the rolling direction to normal direction section. Kernel average misorientation (KAM) calculated from EBSD measurements was employed to determine the recrystallization fraction. ...

Steinernema feltiae is a moderately freezing tolerant nematode, that can withstand intracellular ice formation. We investigated recrystallization inhibition, thermal hysteresis and ice nucleation activities in the infective juveniles of S. feltiae. Both the splat cooling assay and optical recrystallometry indicate the presence of ice active substances that inhibit recrystallization in the nemat...

Quantitative analysis of boundary migration during recrystallization is a key task to understand the recrystallization process and to improve recrystallization models. In the last 2530 years, quantification of boundary migration has mostly been conducted in term of average growth rates in many materials. This type of analysis has largely been based on the assumption that all or groups of recrys...

Total scattering pair distribution function (TSPDF) analysis of synchrotron X-ray diffraction data has been used to study the structural characteristics of amorphous lactose and its subsequent recrystallization on aging. This shows that the recrystallization kinetics vary substantially between spray dried, lyophilized, and melt quenched samples aged at 40 °C/75% relative humidity (RH), although...

Flow curves are generated in muti-pass torsion tests for a titanium stabilized and a niobium stabilized IF steel. Two types of test schedule are used, one based on plate rolling and the other approximating strip rolling. The purpose of the former is to define the three critical temperatures of steel rolling. The strip schedules are varied in order to investigate the influence of increasing the ...

Hot deformation and softening response for the titanium aluminide Ti–48Al–2V–0.2B has been investigated. The to mechanisms examined. Deformation experiments were carried out in strain rate range 0.01–10 s?1 keeping temperature constant at 1200 °C 1000–1200 1 s?1. With an increase rate, microstructural changes associated with mechanism include breaking of lamellae, spheroidization broken laths d...
