材料科学技术（英文）

A comprehensive review of low temperature environmental embrittlement in intermetallics is pres- ented. Moisture and hydrogen are shown to severely embrittle many intermetallics, including iron, nickel and titanium aluminides. The roles of composition, microstructure and external test variables are emphasized. Several methods to reduce or avoid embrittlement are described.

A new molybdenum oxide phase which exists in bomb combustion products of Mo was found. It has been determined that this phase is a transformed MoO_3 of triclinic system.One set of its lattice parameters was also determined from the X-ray diffraction data as α=0.4049± 0.0001 nm,b=0.5079±0.0003 nm,c=1.4339±0.0009 nm,α=115.16±0.08°,β=90.69± 0.14°,γ=105.58±0.05° and unit cell volume=0.2544 nm~3.

A new “mid-relief” plate martensite was observed together with lenticular plate and thin plate martensites in Fe-29.37Ni-0.34C alloy after twice stepped cooling:-100/-120℃, -120/-140℃,-155/-165℃ and -165/-196℃,by means of colour metallography and TEM.The morphology of martensites changes with decreasing M_s temperature.The “mid-relief” plate martensite is characterized by the intensive mid-relie and the substructures of symmetric double twins or half twins and half dislocations,the formation of this martensite can be interpreted by a stress-induced co-generated mechanism.

A new Kossel orientation method of crystal is developed.Only the distances among three in- tersections of the Kossel lines on the indexed Kossel patterns observed are necessary.for de- termining the orientation.Thus,the error may be eliminated and the orientation precision may be improved to be within 0.3°.

A NEW METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING NANOCRYSTALLINE ALLOYS

Journal of Applied Physics

A new method to prepare nanocrystalline alloys was developed by means of crystallization from amorphous alloys. By using this method, a Ni-P alloy with 9 nm crystallites was synthesized. The structure and grain sizes of the alloy were examined by means of x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and high resolution electron microscopy. Specific heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficient of the nanocrystalline Ni-P alloy prepared by this method were found to be greater than those of the coarse-grained crystalline alloy by 12.3% and 56.2%, respectively. A new micromechanism for nanometer-sized crystallites formation is discussed.

A NEW EVALUATION PROCEDURE FOR CRACK CLOSURE

International Journal of Fatigue

Bending fatigue tests can be used as a simple method for the determination of load-displacement curves near threshold for specimens containing surface cracks. The test method involves a strain gauge technique that yields highly reproducible results for cyclic loading from positive to negative stress ratios. Applying a new evaluation procedure one obtains DELTA-K(th,eff) values that are considered to be more realistic compared with those determined by conventional methods.

A new probe for the investigation of soil corrosivity

Corrosion

A new type of soil corrosivity probe was developed that could be used to measure not only corrosion current density (i(corr)) and corrosion potential (E-corr) of metals in soil, but also parameters of soil such as resistivity (rho), redox potential (Eh(7)), and temperature in a field corrosion test. The stable i(corr) of low-carbon steel (LCS) measured by the probe was in satisfactory agreement with the weight loss in practice. Results showed that the probe could provide a valuable tool for measuring soil corrosivity.

Mechanical properties of a new electrorheological fluid

Solid State Communications

We have extended the Rayleigh identity based on a multipole expansion theory to analyze the mechanical properties of a new type of electrorheological (ER) system that consists of a novel doubly coated particle in silicone oil. The function of the inner conducting layer of the particle has been investigated. From the shear strain (theta) dependence of effective dielectric constant, the dependence of static yield stress (tau(s)) and shear modulus (G) on the applied electric field are presented. Implications for the design of ER fluids are discussed briefly. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

A new approach to isothermal precipitation kinetics of carbides in undercooled austenite has been proposed firstly, which is based on measuring the changes of Ms point vs holding time at a certain temperature. The isothermal precipitation kinetics (PTT) Curve of carbides was obtained by the use of the method for 13Cr-8Mn-0.07N stainless steel, and compared with the results of chemical phase analysis and TEM method. The results show that the new method is more sensitive and convenient than the other methods.
