Inconel 617 is a candidate tube material for high temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGR). The microstructure and mechanical properties of Inconel 617 were studied after exposure at high temperature of 1050oC. The dominant oxide layer was Cr-oxide. The internal oxide and Crdepleted region were observed below the Cr-oxide layer. The major second phases are M23C6 and M6C types of carbides. The composition of M23C6 and M6C were determined to be Cr21Mo2C6 and Mo3Cr2(Ni,Co)1C, respectively, by EDS. These carbides are coarsened during exposure. M6C carbide is more stable than M23C6 at high temperature. There was not much change in mechanical properties after exposure at 1050oC for 1000 h.

The effects of minor Al and Ce on the microstructures, room-temperature and high-temperature mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Zn magnesium alloys were investigated. With the Al addition into Mg-6Zn alloy, the coarse eutectic Mg51Zn20phases were refined and distributed discontinuously. After adding 0.5wt.% Ce into Mg-6Zn-1Al alloy, a new needle-like Al2CeZn2phase was observed. Meanwhile, the volume fraction of Mg51Zn20phase decreased and the semi-continuous Mg51Zn20phase became discontinuous globular morphology. It has been observed that the addition of Ce element coarsens the grains, and 1wt.% Al addition enhanced the yield strength and ultimate strength from 86.35MPa, 229MPa to 90.7MPa, 238MPa, respectively. Moreover, the Ce addition can significantly increase the high-temperature mechanical properties of cast Mg-6Zn-1Al alloy.

ABSTRACTPrevious work has shown that ternary Ti-Al-Si alloys with hypoeutectic and eutectic microstructures containing the intermetallic phases Ti3 (Al,Si) and Ti5 (Si,Al)3 have promising high temperature mechanical properties [1]. In the present investigation alloying additions of Niobium have been made to selected Ti-Al-Si alloys based on hypoeutectic compositions and the effects of Niobium on the microstructure and mechanical properties have been studied. The high temperature creep and oxidation behaviour of such alloys appears to be superior to that of currently available Ti3Al-based alloys.

It is expected that silicon nitride based ceramics will be used as high-temperature structural components. Though much progress has been made in both processing techniques and microstructural control, the mechanical properties required have not yet been achieved. It is thought that the high-temperature mechanical properties of Si3N4 are limited largely by the secondary glassy phases present at triple points. These are due to various oxide additives used to promote liquid-phase sintering. Therefore, many attempts have been performed to crystallize these second phase glassy pockets in order to improve high temperature properties. In addition to the glassy or crystallized second phases at triple points a thin amorphous film exists at two-grain junctions. This thin film is found even in silicon nitride formed by hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) without additives. It has been proposed by Clarke that an amorphous film can exist at two-grain junctions with an equilibrium thickness.
