Selective laser melting (SLM) is widely used for the additive manufacturing (AM) of metal components, which can produce net shape complex geometries. Novel titanium alloy/bioactive glass composites were successfully fabricated via SLM method for biomedical applications. The fabricated composites contained a Ti5Si3 phase, which resulted from the reaction between the titanium alloy and the bioactive glass. The phase can improve the bonding strength between composite and bone. Additionally, the remained amorphous bioactive glass phase could improve bioactivity. The present study opens a new avenue for developing new titanium alloy/bioactive glass composites with optimal bioactivity and bonding strength with the bone.

Oxide Dispersion Strengthening copper (ODS-Cu) alloy has high strength, high thermal conductivity and superior irradiation resistance which are needed for fusion reactor divertor components. In this study, specimen size dependence of the yield stress in Cu and ODS-Cu which were made by mechanical alloying and hot pressing was investigated by micro-pillar compression test. The distributions of yield stress values were different between the sizes, 1, 3 and 5 µm cubic micro-pillars, which can be explained by the inhomogeneous spatial distributions of both the crystallographic grain in matrix and oxide-particles.

A new approach of nano-indentation measurements at elevated temperatures has been developed to evaluate a temperature-dependent mechanical behavior of heat resistant alloys on a submicron scale, where the measurement is conducted in an inert atmosphere to prevent the surface oxidation of a sample and heat an indenter passively. The developed approach enables us to perform nano-indentation testing with a diamond indenter in the temperature range of 23∼800°C. The developed approach has been applied to gamma single-phase single-crystal of a nickel-based superalloy. Then the degradations of the sample surface and the indenter tip have been discussed in this case.

The selective laser melting could be employed in fabrication of near-net shape products for airplane and biomedical applications from Ti–6Al–4V alloy, which is difficult-to-process material. In this method, the localized laser irradiation forms the unique Ti–6Al–4V microstructures which correspond to the laser scanning patterns and local thermal history as it could be observed from sample cross-sections with OM or SEM. In this study, the effects of heat treatments on mechanical properties of Ti–6Al–4V samples produced by selective laser melting are discussed based on quantitative analysis of microstructures with image processing and machine learning tools. It was found that microstructures of heat-treated samples retained their original morphologies and secondary α phase precipitated regularly at β grain boundaries with increased treatment time. These microstructures were appropriately segmented and classified. Each α particle geometrical characteristics were successfully extracted and evaluated by image analysis. Importantly, the hardness of the heat-treated samples was lower compared to that of as-built ones and it tended to increase with the area fraction of α phase, the α particle width, and the nearest neighbor distance between α particles.

Precious metals from industrial scraps generated by manufacturing processes have been extensively recycled. For these recycles, it is necessary to ensure confidentiality when dealing with the scraps and to perform the recycling operation in an isolated lot with a high recovery ratio, short operation time, and low treatment cost. In recent years, three challenges have emerged in scrap recycling. The first is the decrease in the precious metal content in the scrap, owing to the substitution of precious metals with other non-ferrous metals. The second is the contamination of the scrap with metals that are not present in natural ores. These contaminations pose challenges in the extraction and purification of precious metals. The third challenge is the adherence to Japan’s environmental regulations, which have been tightened recently, restricting the continuous use of some chemicals such as nitric acid. In this report, some efforts of precious metal recycling companies to overcome these challenges are discussed. This Paper was Originally Published in Japanese in Japan Inst. Met. Mater. 81 (2017) 152–156.

This study compared cryogenic treatment, ultra-cryogenic treatment, and high-low temperature tempering treatment using ASSAB Stavax ESR, and conducted the following analyses of the prepared specimens: (1) analysis the structure by X-ray diffraction, (3) analysis of the texture of the processed specimens by optical microscopy, (2) using a hardness tester to analyze the changes in hardness of specimens processed by cryogenic and heat treatment, (3) analyzing the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity by the water contact angle test, and (4) analyzing corrosion resistance by the corrosion resistance test. The experimental results showed that cryogenic temperature affects the amount and shape of the carbides, which are significantly reduced in cases of high-temperature tempering. The water contact angle test analysis showed that the coating film’s water contact angle performance is the best, followed by specimens of ultra-cryogenic treatment, specimens of cryogenic treatment, and specimens of traditional heat treatment. It was found that cryogenic treatment can increase polishability, and empower the specimens with good mold release performance. The coating-film corrosion resistance test showed that ultra-cryogenic treatment and cryogenic treatment can improve corrosion resistance; however, the performances of specimens by traditional heat treatment were the worst.

Malanjkhand copper project, Madhya Pradesh, India, generates a lot of lean sulphidic ores containing chalcopyrite (∼0.3% of copper) with traces of oxidized, semi-oxidized and secondary sulfides. EPMA analysis shows that the granitic rock samples have plagioclase feldspar, orthoclase feldspar and quartz as major constituents within which the ore minerals are sparsely distributed. Due to the complex structure and low solubility of the sulphide-bearing granitic rock, the dissolution of copper from the hard matrix is difficult. The present study deals with change in crystallographic and chemical nature of the mineral system present in the host rock. In an attempt to increase copper recovery, the ore was subjected to heating at 600°C under normal atmospheric conditions. This heat treatment resulted in enhanced copper recovery, up to 98% within 60 days of progressive leaching.

We investigated the formation and mechanical properties of Mg97Zn1RE2 alloys with long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures by examining RE = Y, La, Ce, Pr, Sm, Nd, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tb, Tm and Yb. The LPSO phase developed for RE = Y, Dy, Ho, Er, Gd, Tb and Tm. LPSO Mg-Zn-RE alloys are either type I, in which the LPSO phase forms during solidification: Mg-Zn-Y, Mg-Zn-Dy, Mg-Zn-Ho, Mg-Zn-Er and Mg-Zn-Tm, or type II, in which the LPSO phase is nonexistent in as-cast ingots but precipitates with soaking at 773 K: Mg-Zn-Gd and Mg-Zn-Tb. The criteria for REs that form an LPSO phase in Mg-Zn-RE alloys are discussed. Mg-Zn-RE alloys with an LPSO phase, which were worked by hot extrusion, include high strength both at ambient and elevated temperatures, and good ductility. Their tensile yield strength, ultimate strength and elongation were 342–377 MPa, 372–410 MPa and 3–9%, respectively at ambient temperature, and 292–310 MPa, 322–345 MPa and 4–13% at 473 K. The LPSO Mg-Zn-RE alloys are promising candidates for lightweight structural materials.

Neutron diffraction profile analysis using the whole profile fitting method is useful for obtaining microscopic information on metallic materials. To determine an appropriate fitting approach for obtaining reasonable and non-arbitrary results, we applied diffraction line profile analyses using the Convolutional Multiple Whole Profile (CMWP) method to diffraction patterns obtained using the Engineering Materials Diffractometer (TAKUMI, BL19) at the Materials and Life Science Facility (MLF) of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). The tensile specimens of 780 MPa grade bainitic steel were uniaxially stretched until the plastic strain reached a value of 0.05. We performed CMWP analyses on the obtained diffraction patterns during tensile test with various initial parameters of dislocation density and crystallite size. These parameters were optimized in the fitting procedures to minimize the weighted sums of squared residuals (WSSRs). Following this approach, we found that unsuitable initial parameter values resulted in unreasonable convergence. Therefore, initial fitting parameters should be chosen to ensure that the initial profiles are as broad as possible. Reasonable results were obtained following this suggestive approach even when the strain anisotropy parameter is set to arbitrary values.

The electrochemical and chemical behaviors of titanium were examined in aluminum chloride-1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AlCl3-BMIC) ionic liquid. The reduction of Ti(IV) in AlCl3-BMIC occurs in three consecutive steps: Ti(IV) → Ti(III) → Ti(II) → Ti, and Ti(III) ion can quickly react with Cl− anion to form sparingly soluble TiCl3. However, No elemental titanium can be obtained in either acidic or basic AlCl3-BMIC melt. Metal titanium can be oxidized to Ti(II) by Ti(IV) in AlCl3-BMIC melt. In addition, the anodic oxidation rate of titanium obviously increases in the presence of Ti(IV) and Ti(III) ions, suggesting that the anodic dissolution of titanium involves chemical dissolution. These results indicate that it is difficult to nucleate or stabilize pure titanium in ionic liquid, which makes pure titanium deposition quite difficult.

We analyzed the spatial distribution of Ca dopants in α-SiAlON by using a statistical approach that analyzed a high-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) image. By evaluating the image intensity of each atomic column, we found that the intensity deviation of columns with Ca atoms was twice that of other atomic columns. The results of HAADF-STEM image simulation suggested that there was a long-range repulsive interaction along the [0001] direction between pairs of Ca atoms in the same Ca column. Moreover, correlation of image intensities in neighboring Ca columns suggested the existence of a short-range repulsive force between first-nearest-neighbor Ca atoms. The origin of such anisotropic interactions between pairs of Ca atoms will be discussed.

In this study Cu-contaminated soils were chosen as a candidate material for the removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from hot coal gas. Experimental results showed that the H2S was significantly reduced below 10 ppm when the Cu-contaminated soils were reacted with H2S. The optimal removal temperature of H2S was found to be at 923 K in the operating conditions. In addition to Cu species, free Fe oxides in the contaminated soils also performed an active species to react with H2S and enhanced the overall sulfur capacity. Through the XPS analysis, Fe sulfide (FeS) and Cu sulfide (Cu2S) were the major products after removal experiments. Regeneration experimental results also indicated that the Cu-contaminated soils can be regenerated by pass air and thus be reused for many times.

Silver-containing 2205 duplex stainless steel was developed to study its phase transformation, precipitating behavior, as well as corrosion resistance. The result reveals that the doping of silver in 2205 duplex stainless steel decreased the γ2 phase volume fraction. In addition, the solubility of silver in iron was extremely low, and silver particles were distributed randomly both in the matrix and on the boundaries of the material. Silver particles were observed on the material surface and the number of particles on the surface increased with the silver content.The pitting corrosion resistance of the test materials decreased with increasing silver content. The pits on the material surface became more abundant when the silver content was increased. The protective function of continuous Cr2O3 film on the surface of the steel was destroyed by the silver particles that weakened the pitting resistance. In addition, the initiation of pitting corrosion usually occurred around the γ2 phase, which had low concentrations of chromium and molybdenum.

Fatigue crack closure in commercially pure titanium sheets severely deformed using the accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) process were investigated. Sheet processed through 6 cycles of ARB consists of fine equiaxed grains and elongated lamellar grains and shows a high 0.2% proof stress of 790 MPa. Fatigue crack closure was not observed in the ARB processed sheet. The effective threshold stress intensity factor ranges, ΔKth.eff, of the ARB processed sheets and starting sheet are nearly the same. On the other hand, the resistance of the fatigue crack growth rate of the ARB processed sheet is higher than that of the starting sheet. It was found that ARB increases the resistance for the fatigue crack propagation but has no effect on the onset of propagation.
