Abstract

The strong and ductile single-phase body-centered-cubic (BCC) HfNbTaTiZr refractory high-entropy alloy (RHEA) is a potential structural material for high-temperature applications. However, the BCC phase stability in the intermediate temperature range (500-900 degrees C) needs to be better understood to make this alloy applicable to industry. Here, the phase decomposition of the HfNbTaTiZr RHEA is examined at different temperatures (500-1000 degrees C). Additionally, the formation of BCC Ta-Nb-rich and hexagonal-close-packed (HCP) Hf-Zr-rich precipitates are studied as a function of annealing time at 700 degrees C using a combination of atom probe tomography, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. In conclusion, we found that these BCC and HCP precipitates have preferred orientations with the BCC matrix.

Phase stability and transformation in a light-weight high-entropy alloy

Journal Article Feng, Rui ; Gao, Michael C. ; Zhang, Chuan ; ... - Acta Materialia

Light-weight high-entropy alloys (HEAs) with a vast alloy-design space have offered new avenues to explore novel low-cost, high strength-to-weight ratio structural materials. Studying their phase stability and possible transformations is critical for designing microstructures for optimal material properties. However, the complex local atomic environment of HEAs poses challenges to the fundamental understanding of phase stability and transformation behaviors. The present paper investigates the phase stability and transformation behaviors of a newly-designed light-weight Al _1.5CrFeMnTi HEA by integrated experimental and theoretical approaches. The coherent precipitation of the L2 ₁ phase within the body-centered-cubic (BCC) matrix at intermediate temperatures was observed, andmore »« less

Anomalously high impact fracture toughness in B.C.C. Mg-Li between 4.2 K and 77 K

Journal Article Russell, A.M. ; Chumbley, L.S. ; Xu, K. ; ... - Scripta Materialia

Mg-Li alloys` unique combination of low density and extraordinary ductility have interested engineers and scientists since the 1940`s. As a preliminary phase of a larger program to investigate the potential for strengthening Mg-Li with dispersed metallic reinforcing phases, this study was designed to measure the grain size dependence of the ductile-brittle transition temperature of a single-phase, body-centered cubic alloy of Mg-12 weight % Li. Most body-centered cubic (BCC) metals undergo a transition from ductile to brittle fracture as the temperature is lowered. These transition temperatures vary widely for different BCC metals; for example, plain carbon steel transition temperatures range frommore »« less

Polymorphism and melt in high-pressure tantalum. II. Orthorhombic phases

Journal Article Haskins, Justin B. ; Moriarty, John A. - Physical Review B

Continuing uncertainty in the high-pressure melt curves of bcc transition metals has spawned renewed research interest in the phase diagrams of these materials, with tantalum becoming an important prototype. Here, the present paper extends the quantum-based investigation of high- T, P polymorphism and melt in Ta that was begun in Paper I [Haskins et al., Phys. Rev. B 86, 224104 (2012)] on five candidate cubic and hexagonal structures (bcc, A15, fcc, hcp, and hex-ω) to here treat four promising orthorhombic structures (Pnma, Fddd, Pmma, and α-U). Using DFT-based MGPT multi-ion potentials that allow accurate MD simulations of large systems, wemore »« less
