in this study, ultrafine grained 2024 al alloy based b4c particles reinforced composite was produced by mechanical milling and hot extrusion. mechanical milling was used to synthesize the nanostructured al2024 in attrition mill under argon atmosphere up to 50h. a similar process was used to produce al2024-5%wt. b4c composite powder. to produce trimodal composites, milled powders were combined w...

this paper provides an overview on obtaining low-carbon ultra-fine grained dual-phase steels through rapid intercritical annealing of cold-rolled sheet as improved materials for automotive applications. a laboratory processing route was designed that involves cold-rolling of a tempered martensite structure followed by a second tempering step to produce a fine grained aggregate of ferrite and ca...

Introduction: Dust is the basic building block of all larger bodies formed in the Solar System: planets, their satellites, comets and asteroids. Some of these dust grains have survived 4.56 Gyr of processing, and occur as interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), GEMS (Glass with embedded sulphides) within IDPs and presolar grains in meteorites. Primitive meteorites can also be regarded as aggregat...

Introduction: Several studies have contributed to our understanding of the record of alteration of CR chondrites [e.g., 1-5]. However, recent observations of CR2 GRA 06100 suggest that hydration of the CR parent body was a more diverse process than previously anticipated [6]. [6] observed that Fe,Ni metal in this meteorite was invariably and extensively altered to form complex assemblages conta...
