In this paper, a new biomedical Mg-Li alloy for the improvement of the comprehensive mechanical properties by micro-alloying and processing to meet the need of mechanical properties of biomedical materials. And the Mg-Li (Mg-Li-Al-Zn-Ca-Sr) alloy's processing and heat treatment were investigated in detail. The crystal texture of cast state, forged state and rolled state were observed and analyzed by OM, XRD and SEM. The mechanical properties of every stage were tested as well. The results showed that the grain size was refined obviously by the concentrating of Ca and Sr in the grain boundary. With the increase of rolling lane, the second phase's distribution was changed to a scattered state gradually from the reunion state. The tensile strength of the forged alloy was improved as well as its elongation after cold rolling and with rolled heat treatment process. The tensile strength reached 220MPa and the elongation reach 22%, which might meet the demand of cardiovascular stents mechanics.

This work deals with the examination of the mechanical properties of Aluminium (LM6) reinforced with iron oxide (Fe2O3). Stir casting process is used to formulate the composite sampling by varying iron oxide in 5% and 10% by weight. Three different heat treatment process of hardening, annealing and normalizing is carried out on samples of aluminium (LM6), aluminium (LM6) + 5% Fe2O3 and aluminium (LM6) + 10% Fe2O3. Composite specimens are tested to analyze the mechanical properties such as hardness, yield stress, tensile strength and elongation. Present reinforcement specks enabled the alloy to preserve higher hardness during the heat treatment. Results have shown substantial improvements in properties of the specimens with various compositions of reinforcement.

This paper studies the microstructure of drawn gold wires to equivalent strain of 10 and to equivalent strain of 8.5 then heat-treated. The texture of gold wire drawn to strain of 10 is mainly composed of <100> and <111> fibers. Tensile strength of the gold wire increases with <111> fiber fraction, while the grain size does not appear to affect the tensile property. With an exception at heat treatment at 600oC, the texture of gold wire drawn the strain of 8.5 is replaced with <100> fiber component by heat treatment process at 400~700oC. Heat treatment at 600oC produces <110> fiber or <112> fiber, depending upon annealing time.

Effects of heat treatment process of quenching and tempering under different temperature conditions on mechanical properties of X70 grade pipeline steel bends were studied. Brinell hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and impact absorbing energy of the bends were tested by using hardness tester, cupping machine and impact testing machine, respectively. It shows that the best heat treatment process of the X70 grade pipeline steel bends is quenching at 890 °Cand thermal insulation for 26 min then water cooling followed by tempering at 590 °C and thermal insulation for 60 min then air cooling. Furthermore, the resulting hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, yield ratio, elongation and impact absorbing energy reach HB230, 595 MPa, 725 MPa, 0.82, 28% and 300 J respectively, which has excellent comprehensive mechanical properties.

The effect of the heat treatment process parameters on the mechanical properties and microstructure of SWRS82B wire rods were investigated. Specimens were austenitized at 850°C~900°C and held at 500°C~600°C. The results show that the interlamellar spacing and the pearlite block size become finer with the decrease of the isothermal temperature. At the same isothermal temperature condition, the interlamellar spacing decreases with the increase of austenitizing temperature. The fine interlamellar spacing increases the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength.

During the installation process, copper pipes for air conditioning will experience a very large deformation due to straightening and bending following the installation path. Hardening strains occur that result in changes in mechanical properties in this case decreases ductility making it difficult to do the connecting process with flaring. Studies need to be carried out to restore the mechanical properties of copper pipes that have been used, including the heat treatment process on copper pipes, so that used copper pipes have a better benefit value than having to be recycled. The temperature of the heat treatment is varied from 400oC, 500 oC and 600 oC. Tensile test results show that at annealed temperature of 400 oC has the highest tensile strength of 125.81 N / mm2 and proportional limit stress of 40.52 N / mm2. Whereas in the microhardness test, the highest hardness occurs also at annealed temperature of 400 oC which is equal to 50.8 HV.

Steel represents a metallic material which is still dominantly used in the engineering industry and mechanical construction. In order to fulfil the industrial demand, the high quality and mechanical properties of steel has to be always available.It is necessary to conduct a heat-treatment process to identify the improvement of mechanical properties and microstructure of steel JIS G 4051 grade S 45 C .Results of the heat-treatment process indicate that the maximum tensile strength of the investigated steel is 1074 MPa , it is earning from the warm-up temperature 860 °C and the highest hardness of the investigated steel is 579 HV it is earning from the warm-up temperature 920 °C .

Abstract A novel Ta/Re layered composite with high temperature resistance, low cost, light weight, and excellent mechanical properties has been prepared by chemical vapor deposition, for improving the comprehensive service performance of the aerospace engine nozzle materials. The interface structure, element distribution, and mechanical properties of the Ta/Re layered composites have been studied with scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and tensile testing machine. The results show that the structure of the Ta/Re layered composites is flat and smooth, uniform, and dense. Further, the interface joint is a serrated meshing structure, which tremendously improves the interface bonding properties. The high temperature (1600 °C) tensile strength of the heat-treated Ta/Vol. 30% Re layered composite is 125 MPa, which is 2.8 times and 56.3% higher than the commonly used nozzle materials C103 and Nb521, respectively, whereas the raw material cost is only about 46% of that of pure rhenium. The heat treatment process enhances the mutual diffusion behavior of the atoms in the interface diffusion layer, and increases the thickness of the diffusion layer, besides changing the mechanical properties of the material. When the heat treatment process is at 1800 °C × 1 h, the highest tensile strength at room temperature is 739.61 MPa, which is 42.76% higher than that in a deposited state. This work can provide a reference for the further research of the Ta/Re layered composites.

A troostite nodular cast iron was obtained by a heat treatment process of controlled cooling, reheating-up and isothermal treatment. Experimental results show that the troostite substrate demonstrates an interlamellar spacing below 100 nm. The supercooling condition in this specific heat treatment process is key to the formation of troostite. The mechanical properties are excellent, with tensile strength of 905.5~1029.5 MPa, hardness of 30.8~32.8 HRC, and elongation of 3.1~4.0 %.

The influence of chemical composition, heat treatment process and microstructure on the properties of E40 heavy plate have been studied. After normalization process of thick TMCP plate for high strength hull steel, the structure is substantially more regular, but the strength decreases. The former microstructure consists of lath-like bainite, but after heat treatment it consists of ferrite and pearlite. The mechanical properties meet the requirement of GB 712 prescript. With cooling rate decreasing, grain size in normalizing samples increases gradually, and the strength decreases. With the holding time extending, grain growth is not obvious, and the strength decreases. The best normalizing temperature is 910 °C, and the best holding time is about100 min.

This study investigated the mechanical properties and microstructures of Er-containing Al–Mg alloys. The research found that the H114-T sheet of Er-containing Al–Mg alloys showed a relative good comprehensive performance in mechanical properties. With the special rolling and heat treatment process, this H114-T sheet showed different morphology of microstructures with the other sheets in Er-containing Al–Mg alloys. Grains in H114-T sheet performed irregular shape polygon, a number of subgrains appeared in grains, the amount of dislocations in grains decreased. H114-T sheet possessed a lot of Copper texture, this may be one of important factors influenced the mechanical properties.
