Abstract

Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion (ShAPE) -a novel processing route that combines high shear and extrusion conditions- was evaluated as a processing method to densify melt spun magnesium alloy (AZ91E) flake materials. This study illustrates the microstructural regimes and transitions in crystallographic texture that occur as a result of applying simultaneous linear and rotational shear during extrusion. Characterization of the flake precursor and extruded tube was performed using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and microindentation techniques. Results show a unique transition in the orientation of basal texture development. Despite the high temperatures involved during processing, uniform grain refinement and material homogenization are observed. These results forecast the ability to implement the ShAPE processing approach for a broader range of materials with novel microstructures and high performance.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of a novel rapidly solidified, high-temperature Al-alloy

Journal Article Overman, N.R., E-mail: Nicole.Overman@pnnl.gov ; Mathaudhu, S.N. ; University of California, Riverside, 3401 Watkins Dr., Riverside, CA 92521 ; ... - Materials Characterization

Rapid solidification (RS) processing, as a production method, offers a variety of unique properties based on far-from-equilibrium microstructures obtained through rapid cooling rates. In this study, we seek to investigate the microstructures and properties of a novel Al-alloy specifically designed for high temperature mechanical stability. Synthesis of, AlFe{sub 11.4}Si{sub 1.8}V{sub 1.6}Mn{sub 0.9} (wt.%), was performed by two approaches: rotating cup atomization (“shot”) and melt spinning (“flake”). These methods were chosen because of their ability to produce alloys with tailored microstructures due to their inherent differences in cooling rate. The as-solidified precursor materials were microstructurally characterized with electron microscopy. The resultsmore »« less

Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion (ShAPE™) of AZ91E Flake: A Study of Tooling Features and Processing Effects

Journal Article Darsell, Jens T. ; Overman, Nicole R. ; Joshi, Vineet V. ; ... - Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance

Charges of melt spun AZ91E flake were indirectly extruded into tubes using shear assisted processing and extrusion (ShAPE). The effect of instrument parameters and tool features on densification and microstructural evolution was studied. At a constant extrusion ratio, the tool rotational velocity was varied from 75 to 300 rpm, and was demonstrated to reduce the forge force by a factor of four. Modification of the extrusion die face with successively more aggressive scrolled features was found to enhance material flow into the extrusion orifice which led to a 30% reduction in spindle torque. Microstructure, texture and hardness are reported formore »« less

Technical Report Cordero, Zachary ; Elliott, Amy M.

Amorphous powders often possess high hardness values and other useful mechanical properties. However, densifying these powders into complex shapes while retaining their unique properties is a challenge with standard processing routes. Pressureless sintering, for example, can densify intricate green parts composed of rapidly-solidified powders. But this process typically involves long exposures to elevated temperatures, during which the non-equilibrium microstructure of the powder can evolve towards lower energy configurations with inferior properties. Pressure-assisted compaction techniques, by contrast, can consolidate green parts with simple shapes while preserving the microstructure and properties of the powder feedstock. But parts made with these processes generallymore »« less

Texture formation in bulk iron processed by simple shear

Journal Article Gibbs, M.A. ; Hartwig, K.T. ; Cornwell, L.R. ; ... - Scripta Materialia

The preferred orientation of grains in iron after conventional deformation by cold rolling or drawing is characterized as sheet or fiber texture respectively. The main texture component in the rolling direction is [110](001). For the case of wire drawing, again, the [110] direction aligns with the wire axis. A novel method of straining materials called equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE), has recently been developed. This new processing method has the capability of introducing large amounts of plastic strain into bulk material in a relatively uniform manner without a reduction in workpiece cross-section. The processing concept is elegant; press a blockmore »« less
