Microstructural Constituents and Mechanical Properties of Low-Density Fe-Cr-Ni-Mn-Al-C Stainless Steels
(2022-07-23)
Metallic material concepts associated with the sustainable and efficient use of resources are currently the subject of intensive research. Al addition to steel offers advantages in view of lightweight, durability, and efficient use of high-Fe scrap from the Al industry. In the present work, Al was added to Fe-12Cr-(9,12)Ni-3Mn-0.3C-xAl (x = 0.1–6) (wt.%) stainless steels to assess its influence on microstructure and mechanical properties. According to density measurements based on Archimedes’ principle, densities ...

Microcantilever Fracture Tests of α-Cr Containing NiAl Bond Coats
(2022-01-08)
MCrAlY bond coats are widely used as oxidation-resistant coatings on superalloys. The major phase is the thermally stable intermetallic β-NiAl phase. The addition of Cr increases the oxidation and corrosion resistance but leads to the formation of α-Cr precipitates. Both phases are brittle and limit the fracture toughness of these coatings. To study the influence of thermal exposure and the resulting changing chemical composition on the fracture properties, the fracture toughness of both phases is measured by notched ...

Investigation of processing windows in additive manufacturing of AlSi10Mg for faster production utilizing data-driven modeling
(2022-04-29)
To reduce production time and decrease production cost, the increase of layer thickness is an adequate option in powder bed fusion. In order to determine the relationships between process parameters in laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) and final porosity in AlSi10Mg, samples were processed following a space-filling experimental design in the present study. A total of 144 samples were fabricated considering layer thicknesses of 30 µm, 45 µm, 60 µm, and 90 µm. Afterwards, porosity was assessed using image analysis and ...

A comparative study using water atomized and gas atomized powder in laser powder bed fusion process – Assessment of the fatigue performance
(2022)
Gas-atomized (GA, spherical) and water-atomized (WA, spattered) commercially pure iron (cp-Fe) powders were processed using laser-based powder bed fusion, resulting in a slightly higher porosity of the WA condition. In addition to characterization of quasi-static mechanical properties, fatigue tests, which are known to be detrimentally affected by porosity, were finally considered, revealing good properties even for the WA condition. In terms of microstructure stability, the GA and WA specimens significantly differ; ...

On the Friction Stir Processing of Additive-Manufactured 316L Stainless Steel
(2022)
The novel combination of friction stir processing (FSP) and additive manufacturing (AM) is studied herein. Laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) is used to establish 316 L stainless steel with a bimodal microstructure. Upon FSP, the as-built bimodal microstructure with an average grain size of 179 μm is transformed into the unimodal microstructure containing ultrafine grains with an average grain size of 1.2 μm. Results obtained by mechanical testing reveal that after FSP; the hardness, the yield point, ...

Oxide Modified Iron in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion - From Processability to Corrosion Properties
(2022-03-07)
Additive manufacturing (AM) processes are not solely used where maximum design freedom meets low lot sizes. Direct microstructure design and topology optimization can be realized concomitantly during processing by adjusting the geometry, the material composition, and the solidification behavior of the material considered. However, when complex specific requirements have to be met, a targeted part design is highly challenging. In the field of biodegradable implant surgery, a cytocompatible material of an application-adapted ...

Effects of blending poly(lactic acid) and thermoplastic polyester polyurethanes on the mechanical and adhesive properties in two-component injection molding
(2022-09-16)
One possible way to increase the use of bioplastics and thus contribute to a more resource-efficient and sustainable economy is to broaden the application range of such bioplastics. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a promising and commercially available bio-based and biologically degradable polymer, which exhibits a high strength and stiffness but is very brittle. Blending with other polymers can lead to an enhancement of the ductility of the PLA. The goal of this work was to show that blending of PLA with a bio-based ...

Modification of self-reinforced composites (SRCs) via film stacking process
(2022-02-25)
This work presents the mechanical behavior of self-reinforced composites (SRCs) manufactured and modified via film stacking. For modification, interleaved films made of polypropylene (PP), a thermoplastic elastomer and a polyolefin engage were combined in different ways to induce the elastic modifier into the matrix material. The content of modifier was also varied in two ways. First, the films were produced out of a single material and second out of a compound. So, the same content of modifier was implemented in two ...

Investigation of the adhesive strength in a combined compaction and back-injection process to produce back-injected self-reinforced composites (SRCs)
(2022-03-08)
This publication investigates the adhesion between an injection molded component and a self-reinforced composite (SRC) produced in a combined compaction and back-injection process to produce back-injected self-reinforced composites. To study the influence of the process, the parameters barrel temperature, time of injection, and tool temperature were varied. In addition, samples were taken at different positions along the flow path. In light of the orthotropic material behavior of SRCs, investigations were conducted ...

Holzdesign trifft Kunststofftechnik
(2022)
Werkstoffverbunde aus Holzgeweben in einer thermoplastischen Matrix verbinden die Idee des textilen Holzbaus mit der Faserverbundtechnologie. In einem Projekt werden Fassadenelemente aus solchen Wood Textile Composites hergestellt. Dabei spielt neben den mechanischen Anforderungen auch die gestalterische Seite und die Akzeptanz der zukünftigen Nutzer eine wichtige Rolle.
