A high magnetic field accelerates ferrite transformation, changes the morphology of the transformed microstructures and increases the A3 and A1 temperature. In a magnetic field of 30T, the A1 temperature increases by about 37.1℃ for Fe-0.8C, the A3 temperature for pure Fe increases by about 33.1℃. The measured transformation temperature data are not consistent with calculation results using Weiss molecular field theory. Ferrite grains are elongated and aligned along the direction of magnetic field in Fe-0.4C and Fe-0.6C alloys by ferrite transformation, but elongated and aligned structure was not found in pure Fe, Fe-0.05C alloy and Fe-1.5Mn-0.11C-0.1V alloy.展开更多

Three different Fe/WC composite powder mixtures containing 0 wt%, 30 wt%, and 60 wt% of WC were investigated. The microstructure and phase composition of the Fe/WC composite PTA coatings were evaluated systemically by using scanning electron microscope(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD). The wear properties of the three fabricated PTA coatings were investigated on a BRUKER UMT TriboLab. The morphologies of the worn tracks and wear debris were characterized by using SEM and 3 D non-contract profiler. The experimental results reveal that the microhardness on the cross-section and the wear resistance of the fabricated coatings increase dramatically with the increasing adding WC contents. The coating containing 60 wt% of WC possesses excellent wear resistance validated by the lower coefficients of friction(COF), narrower and shallower wear tracks and smaller wear rate. In the pure Fe-based coating, the main wear mechanism is the combination of adhesion and oxidative wear. Adhesive and two-body abrasive wear are predominated in the coating containing 30 wt% of WC, whereas threebody abrasion wear mechanism is predominated in the coating containing 60 wt% of WC.展开更多

The melt-spun (QT1-xBx)99Al1 (x is from 0.006wt% to 0.01wt%) amorphous alloys exhibit onset crystallization temperatures and Curie temperatures of 759-780 and 629-642 K respectively, and whi- ch increase with B content. The amorphous ribbons are ductile and can be bent 180° without breaking. With the increase in B content from 0.006wt% to 0.01wt%, the Vickers microhardness of the amorphous alloys increases from Hv 830 to Hv 1110. The effects of the additional B and Al elements on the glass forming ability and mechanical properties were also discussed.展开更多
The annealing condition, AI content, and field amplitude dependences of the complex permeability for Nb-poor Finemet type alloys, Fe73.5Si13.5B9Cu1Nba-xAlx (x = 0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0), were investigated using an...The annealing condition, AI content, and field amplitude dependences of the complex permeability for Nb-poor Finemet type alloys, Fe73.5Si13.5B9Cu1Nba-xAlx (x = 0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0), were investigated using an impedance analyzer and X-ray diffraction. The results show that different AI contents lead to different optimum annealing conditions, and the A1 content exerts a distinct effect on microstructure thus resulting in a variety of real permeability value. For the samples annealed at 793 K for 0.5 h, the real permeability increases with an increase in A1 content when the AI content is below 2.0 at.%; as for those annealed at 793 K for 1 h and at 813 K for 0.5 h, an overall increase in real permeability can be obtained compared to those annealed at 793 K for 0.5 h. The permeability under different field amplitudes is also studied and it is found that the relaxation frequency in the lower frequency region tends to moving toward a higher frequency with an increase in field amplitude. All these might be because of the role of Nb in the annealing process and the solubility of AI in the amorphous matrix and nanocrystallized crystallites.展开更多

The variation of the non-monotonic effects of tungsten content and vacuum conditions on the glass forming ability(GFA) of Fe-based alloys can be drawn in a schematic diagram. The higher the GFA of alloys, the higher the difference between the thermal expansion coefficients of glassy state and crystalline state(-α), which can be described by the free volume model during dilatometric measurements. Under low and high vacuum conditions, the viscosity and microhardness are improved and the fragility of the Fe-based alloys are decreased by adding tungsten.展开更多
