Improved Production Of Wrought Articles From Powders

Improved technique for consolidation of powders into dense articles developed. Peripheral bands used in consolidation, forging, and rolling operations. Facilitates consolidation of dispersion-hardened aluminous powders and composite mixtures for processing to such useful wrought articles as plates and sheets. Potential use in production of plates and sheets and perhaps other objects from "hard" powders, particularly from powders, objects made from which have propensity to crack when mechanically worked to other forms.

Corrosion Studies of Wrought and Cast NASA-23 Alloy

Corrosion studies were carried out for wrought and cast NASA-23 alloy using electrochemical methods. The scanning reference electrode technique (SRET), the polarization resistance technique (PR), and the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were employed. These studies corroborate the findings of stress corrosion studies performed earlier, in that the material is highly resistant to corrosion.

Effect of Strain Rate on Mechanical Properties of Wrought Sintered Tungsten at Temperatures above 2500 F

Specimens of wrought sintered commercially pure tungsten were made from 1/8-inch swaged rods. All the specimens were recrystallized at 4050 F for 1 hour prior to testing at temperatures from 2500 to 4000 F at various strain rates from 0.002 to 20 inches per inch per minute. Results showed that, at a constant temperature, increasing the strain rate increased the ultimate tensile strength significantly. The effects of both strain rate and temperature on the ultimate tensile strength of tungsten may be correlated by the linear parameter method of Manson and Haferd and may be used to predict the ultimate tensile strength at higher temperatures, 4500 and 5000 F. As previously reported, ductility, as measured by reduction of area in a tensile test, decreases with increasing temperature above about 3000 F. Increasing the strain rate at temperatures above 3000 F increases the ductility. Fractures are generally transgranular at the higher strain rates and intergranular at the lower strain rates.

A new nickel-base wrought superalloy for applications up to 1033 K (1400 F)

Alloy was melted from high purity raw materials and cast ingots extruded at 1422 K. Material was hot rolled to 0.013 m diameter bar stock. Partial solution heat-treatment followed by aging produced structure of fine gamma prime precipitate reinforcing gamma matrix containing coarser blocky gamma prime particles. Alloy can be processed by powder metallurgy.

Effects of C and Hf concentration on the mechanical properties of wrought superalloys based on NASA IIB-11 produced from prealloyed powders

This work describes the effects of C and Hf concentration on the mechanical properties of NASA IIB-11, a candidate material for advanced-temperature gas turbine engine disks. IIB-11 and four alloys of varied C and Hf concentrations were produced as cross-rolled disks from hot-isostatically pressed powder billets. The lower C, higher Hf modification exhibited the best mechanical properties at 760 C and below. These properties were at least equivalent to those of other candidate alloys for advanced temperature disks. Because of their finer grain sizes, all of these powder metallurgy alloys had lower rupture strength, however, than that achieved previously in conventionally processed IIB-11.

Effects of C and Hf concentration on phase relations and microstructure of a wrought powder-metallurgy superalloy

NASA IIB-11, a candidate alloy for advanced temperature turbine engine disks, and four modifications with varying C and Hf concentrations were produced from prealloyed powders. Several notable effects of C and Hf concentration in the alloys were observed. Both the amount of the gamma-prime phase and its solvus temperature increased with decreasing C, but only the gamma-prime solvus was affected by Hf, increasing with increasing Hf. Hf also promoted a cellular gamma-prime precipitation. Hf was, however, about equally distributed between gamma-prime and gamma. Hf and C both affected the carbides formed. Increasing both promoted formation of an MC relative to that of an M6C.

Creep fatigue of low-cobalt superalloys: Waspalloy, PM U 700 and wrought U 700

The influence of cobalt content on the high temperature creep fatigue crack initiation resistance of three primary alloys was evaluated. These were Waspalloy, Powder U 700, and Cast U 700, with cobalt contents ranging from 0 up to 17 percent. Waspalloy was studied at 538 C whereas the U 700 was studied at 760 C. Constraints of the program required investigation at a single strain range using diametral strain control. The approach was phenomenological, using standard low cycle fatigue tests involving continuous cycling tension hold cycling, compression hold cycling, and symmetric hold cycling. Cycling in the absence of or between holds was done at 0.5 Hz, whereas holds when introduced lasted 1 minute. The plan was to allocate two specimens to the continuous cycling, and one specimen to each of the hold time conditions. Data was taken to document the nature of the cracking process, the deformation response, and the resistance to cyclic loading to the formation of small cracks and to specimen separation. The influence of cobalt content on creep fatigue resistance was not judged to be very significant based on the results generated. Specific conclusions were that the hold time history dependence of the resistance is as significant as the influence of cobalt content and increased cobalt content does not produce increased creep fatigue resistance on a one to one basis.

Influence of soft inclusions on the strength of wrought materials

The three dimensional soft particles (such as sulfides, silicates and voids) present in most materials are modelled by circular voids in sheet metal. Relationships are sought between the shape and orientation of a hole after rolling and testing in tension. Then, the effect of hole shape and size on mechanical properties is considered experimentally. The presence of voids has a negligible influence on the ultimate tensile stress of ductile materials based on the unperforated area because plastic flow neutralizes the stress intensification present in the elastic region. However, the shape and orientation of the defects are found to play an important role relative to strain at fracture. In certain engineering applications the strain at fracture is more important than the stress at fracture and in this sense the presence of voids are considered to influence the strength of a ductile material.

Influence of voids on the strength of wrought materials

Three-dimensional voids, which are present in most materials, may be satisfactorily modelled by two-dimensional holes (i.e., cylindrical voids) in sheet metal. In this study, the influence of certain orientations and shapes of voids upon the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of certain ductile materials has been studied. The presence of voids is found to exert a negligible influence on the ultimate tensile strength, owing to plastic flow neutralizing the stress intensification present before yielding occurs. The shape and orientation of the defects, however, are seen to play an important role relative to strain at fracture. The maximum intensified tensile stress criterion which holds for brittle materials is found to apply to ductile materials as well.

Bearing Strengths of Some Wrought-aluminum Alloys

Although a number of investigations of the bearing strength of aluminum alloys have been made, the problem remains one of considerable interest to the aircraft industry. For this reason it has seemed advisable to make additional tests of the commonly used aircraft alloys in an effort to establish a better basis for the selection of allowable bearing values. Current design practice does not recognize the effect of edge distance upon bearing strengths, and for this reason edge distance was one of the principal variables considered in this investigation. The increasing emphasis being placed upon permanent set limitations makes it essential that more information on bearing yield phenomena be obtained. The object of this investigation was to determine bearing yield and ultimate strengths of the following aluminum alloy products: 17S-T, 24S-T, Alclad 24S-T, 24S-RT, 52S-0, 52S-1/2H, 52S-H, 53S-T, and 61S-T extrusions. Ratios of these bearing properties to tensile properties were also determined.
