Mg - Cu - Zn ultrafine eutectic composites with different length scale heterogeneity, consisting of micrometer size dendrites and/or ultrafine scale bimodal eutectics, exhibit high yield strength as well as good plasticity at room temperature compression. Among these alloys, micron-scale α- Mg dendrites reinforced ultrafine eutectic composites exhibit high yield strength of 310 ~ 420 MPa and large plasticity of 7 ~ 12%. Meanwhile, a Mg 72Cu5Zn23 alloy comprising a bimodal eutectic structure without the micron-scale α- Mg dendrites shows the optimized mechanical properties the highest yield strength of 455 MPa combined with a considerable plastic strain of ~5%.

A new bainitic steel with a combination of exceptionally high yield strength and fracture toughness has been developed. This steel has been synthesized by austempering a medium carbon low alloy steel by a novel two-step austempering process. The influence of this two-step austempering on the microstructure and the mechanical properties of this new steel have been examined.

The effect of Mn on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-extruded Mg-0.5Sr alloy were discussed in this work. The results showed that high Mn alloying (2 wt.%) could significantly improve the mechanical properties of the alloys, namely, the tensile and compressive yield strength. The grain size of as-extruded Mg-0.5Sr alloys significantly was refined from 2.78 μm to 1.15 μm due to the pinning effect by fine α-Mn precipitates during the extrusion. Moreover, it also showed that the tensile yield strength and the compressive yield strength of Mg-0.5Sr-2Mn alloy were 32 and 40 percent age higher than those of Mg-0.5Sr alloy, respectively. Moreover, the strain hardening behaviors of the Mg-0.5Sr-2Mn alloy were discussed, which proved that a large number of small grains and texture have an important role in improving mechanical properties.

Due to high strength, perfect plasticity and higher hardness, bulk metallic glass (BMG) has been widely concerned. The work used the vaccum casting of copper-formed mold to establish (Ti36.1Zr33.2Ni5.8Be24.9)100-xCux, where x = 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11. Thermal properties, mechanical behaviors of compression, and corrosion resistance in the proposed compounds were investigated. The results show that the increase in Cu content enhances the heat resistance and the forming of glass of BMGs, small amount of fine dendritic crystals presents in BMG when x = 3, and the best corrosion resistance and mechanical properties can be obtained when x = 7, the yield strength, fracture strength and plastic strain can reach 1496.15 MPa, 2003.44 MPa and 19.19%, respectively.

This paper presents an overview of the microstructures found in a range of two-phase FeNiMnAl alloys ranging from near-equiatomic very high-strength nanostructured alloys, such Fe30Ni20Mn25Al25, to more ductile f.c.c./B2 alloys, such as Fe30Ni20Mn35Al15. The effect of annealing at 823 K on the room temperature hardness is presented together with the temperature dependence of the yield strength.

The uranium-6 niobium (U-6Nb) alloy has been shown to exhibit elongations of 400-600% after a thermomechanical processing (TMP) sequence. This sequence (below the monotectoid temperature of 647°C) was utilized to develop the ultrafine grain size essential for superplastic behavior. The room temperature mechanical properties of the thermomechanically processed (TMP) U- 6Nb alloy before and after a gamma solution heat treatment (GSHT) were measured and compared to conventionally processed, GSHT U-6Nb alloy. These data are in Table I. The data show that the GSHT conditions have comparable mechanical properties and, so, the prior TMP treatment does not cause any loss of properties. However, the as-thermomechanically processed U-6Nb alloy exhibits negligible ductility and an extremely high yield strength. Metallography and AEM techniques have been utilized to characterize the TMP U- 6Nb microstructure to explain this behavior.

In this study, selectively laser melted AlSi10Mg alloy was subjected to ECAP processing for the first time. Mechanical properties of the ECAP processed samples were compared based on hardness measurement, compression and wear tests. The results showed exceptional synergy of high yield strength ~382 MPa and strain to failure of ~48% of the SLM ECAP processed sample. This sample also offered approximately ~71% higher wear resistance, than an unprocessed one. The proposed novel route expands the opportunities of both technologies to produce materials with exceptional properties.
