Effect of heat treatment process on microstructure and mechanical properties of SLM formed Fe-35Mn Fe based high manganese alloy for automobile
LIU Lingge, ZHU Jingjin, TIAN Hailan
The selective laser melting (SLM) was used to prepare Fe-35Mn Fe-based high Mn alloy for automobile. Three heat treatment processes, namely solid solution, aging, and solid solution-aging, were used to treat the alloy, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were analyzed and tested. The results show that Fe-35Mn alloy prepared by SLM and treated by solid solution or solution-aging treatment can refine the grain and generate many twins. Compared with the alloy of solid solution treatment, larger size grains are formed after the solid solution aging treatment, and the twins size of solution aging alloy is larger than that of solution aging alloy. After different heat treatment, Fe-35Mn alloys all produce α-Mn phase. With the increase of tensile strain, the solution alloy has the earliest plastic deformation and the best plasticity. After aging treatment, the tensile strength and yield strength of high-Mn Fe-35Mn SLM alloy increase, but the impact toughness and elongation decrease. After solution aging treatment, the number of pores is the least, the impact toughness and elongation reach the maximum (22.8 kV/J and 21.6%, respectively), and the alloy has good plasticity. Both the morphology of SLM and the tensile fracture of heat-treated Fe-35mn alloy are dimple fracture. The solution aged alloy has the least number of pores and the best plasticity.

LIU Ruiqing, HE Hao, LOU Jia, LI Yimin, LI Song, LIU Chen, QIN Jianchun
The M2 high speed steel was prepared by vacuum sintering process. The effects of vacuum and carbon content on microstructure and properties of M2 high speed steel were studied. The results show that the effective sintering temperature of M2 HSS under low vacuum (10
-1
Pa) is 1 220-1 230 ℃, and its relative density is above 96%. The microstructure of M2 is composed of austenitic matrix, M
6
C and MC carbides after sintering. When vacuum degree increases to 10
-3
Pa,the effective sintering temperature of M2 HSS decreases, and the carbides in the matrix are finer and more evenly distributed. The relative density of the sintered sample is 98%, and its tensile properties and elongation reached 989 MPa and 7.1%, respectively. With the increase of carbon content, there is no obvious change in sintering interval of M2 high-speed steel, but the densification can be easier to achieve at lower temperature. When the mass fraction of carbon is 1.0%, the relative density of the sample is 97%, its tensile strength and elongation are 954 MPa and 7%, respectively.

HAN Fuyong, NI Pan, HU Yangming, WANG Qin
In order to solve the problems of corrosion and wear failure of polished rod of oil field pumping unit, nano-TiCN coating was synthesized by mixing cheap graphite or carbon black powder with micro-Ti powder, feeding into high temperature plasma flame containing nitrogen, and self-propagating reaction of Ti with C and N. By adding elements such as Cr and Mo into the coating, a composite coating with micron-nano multi-scale structure is formed, which can reduce the stress of nano-TiCN coating. The results show that the hardness of C/TiCN composite coating is more than 1 500 HV, higher than that of hard Cr coating, the bonding strength of coating is more than 25 MPa, and the thickness of coating is more than 300 μm. The problem of inversion of hardness and toughness of nano-coating was solved, and the chromium plating layer on the surface of polished rod was replaced by a coating with good toughness, wear resistance and abrasion resistance, so as to prolong the service life of polished rod and disk root of oil field pumping unit and reducing the consumption of pumping unit.

REN Yuduo, YAN Gang, ZHANG Shiting, LUO Kun
TiC powder was obtained by high energy ball milling of pure titanium powders and toluene. After calcination at 750 ℃ for 1h and secondary ball milling, the negative electrode of lithium-ion battery was prepared. The phase composition and microstructure of the TiC powder were analyzed and observed, the tests of the charge-discharge cycle performance of the anode material were performed. The results show that TiH
2
and WC impurities are presented in the product after ball milling, and the TiH
2
impurity is removed by vacuum calcination and secondary ball milling, higher purity TiC powder is obtained. The TiC grain size is refined and the final product grain size is 12.5 nm. The specific capacity of the TiC anode prepared by ball milling is stable during long-term discharge. When the current density is 1 A/g, the specific discharge capacity still can be maintained at 110 (mA∙h)/g when the cycle is 3 000 times. The TiC anode material has excellent long cycle performance and can be used as the framework material of Si anode material.

SiC coatings were prepared on the surface and inside of porous low-density C/C composites by chemical vapor phase reaction using Si and SiO
2
powders as raw materials. MoSi
2
powder was used as raw materials to reactive infiltrate C/C composites and C/C composites with SiC interface layer to obtain MoSi

B

C particles modified C/C-SiC composites were prepared by slurry infiltration combined with precursor infiltration and pyrolysis. The effect of the addition of B
4
C particles on the mechanical properties of C/C-SiC composites was investigated. The results show that,the flexural strength and fracture toughness of B
4
C particles modified C/C-SiC composites are 250.41 MPa and 13.56 MPa·m
1/2
, respectively. Compared with C/C-SiC composites, the flexural strength decreases by 45.5%, the toughness increases by 46.0%. The B
4
C particles can promote the sintering of SiC matrix. However, the bending strength of the composites decrease due to the formation of a large number of closed pores and weak interfaces of the matrix. The main reason for the improvement of the fracture toughness of the C/C-SiC composites modified by B
4
C particles is that the weak interface between B
4
C particles and SiC matrix make the cracks deflect effectively in the SiC matrix, increase the propagation path of the cracks in the matrix, and improve the fracture toughness of the composites.

The effects of sintering temperature and heat treatment process on the microstructure, hardness and tensile strength of alloy steel were studied by three different processes of heat treatment. The results show that,the sintering density of 4605 low alloy steel increases with the increase of sintering temperature, the microstructure is composed of lath martensite and polygonal ferrite, the hardness and tensile strength of alloy steel increase with the increase of sintering temperature. The optimum properties of low alloy steel are obtained after sintered at 1 380 ℃, with its density up to 96.38% and the tensile strength is 613 MPa. The plasticity increases first and then decreases with the increase of temperature. At 1 360 ℃, the elongation of the sintered sample is optimal, reaching 13.50%. The martensite structure can be obtained through heat preservation at 800 ℃ for 0.5 h, and then at 200 ℃ for 2 h after oil quenching. The tensile strength and hardness of the sample attain to optimum, that is 708 MPa and 78.8 HRA respectively. The tempered sorbite can be obtained by heat preservation at 800 ℃ for 1 h followed by heat preservation at 600 ℃ for 2 h after oil quenching. The elongation of the sample is optimal, reaching 18.76%.
