The effects of adding boron on their as-melted microstructure and oxidation resistance are analyzed. The (Nb,Ti)ss, β-(Nb,Ti)5Si3 and γ-(Nb,Ti)5Si3 exist in Nb-22Ti-16Si-6Cr-3Al-4Hf alloy, while (Nb,Ti)ss, α-(Nb,Ti)5Si3 and γ-(Nb,Ti)5Si3 are present in Nb-22Ti-16Si-6Cr-3Al-4Hf-lB and Nb-22Ti-16Si-6Cr-3Al-4Hf-2B alloys. The oxidation of Nb-Ti-Si-based ultrahigh-temperature alloys is dominated by the diffusion of oxygen through (Nb,Ti)ss. Compared to boron-free alloys, the boron-containing alloys have significantly lower oxidation rate when oxidized at 1 200 ℃ for less than 50 h, but, for more than 50 h, their oxidation resistance deteriorates.展开更多

In the present work, an attempt of LSM on magnesium alloy with liquid nitrogen-assisted cooling(LNSC) was carried out to get the higher cooling rate and improve the surface properties. The experimental results were compared with those of Ar gas protection at room temperature. The samples after LSM with LNSC resulted in a thinner melted layer, a highly homogeneous, refined melted microstructure and formed a lot of worm-like nanocrystals and local amorphous structures. Microhardness of the melted layer with LNAC was improved to HV 90-148 as compared to HV 65-105 of the samples with Ar gas protection. The corrosion resistance of the melted layer in a 3.5% Na Cl solution(mass fraction) was improved because of the grain refinement and redistribution of β-Mg17Al12 phases following rapid quenching associated with the process.展开更多
