Pure W and W-2Y(2)O(3) materials were fabricated using powder metallurgy method. The microstructures of the materials were investigated by electron back-scattered diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques. Both materials contain 1-2 mu m ...
As part of the engineering validation and engineering design activities (EVEDA) phase for the international fusion materials irradiation facility IFMIF, major elements of a lithium target facility and the test facility were designed, prototyped and validat ...

Manufacturing of red gold components relies widely on controlling the formation of ordered precipitates during thermo-mechanical processing. The ordered phase hardens the material, makes it less workable and introduces residual stresses. We show that an in ...

An oxide dispersion strengthened ODS ferritic steel has been produced by mechanical alloying of Fe–14Cr–2W–0.2Ti (wt.%) prealloyed powder with 0.55 (wt.%) Fe2Y intermetallic particles and consolidated by hot isostatic pressing. The microstructure after the ...
Various thermo-mechanical treatments were applied to refine and homogenise grain size and improve mechanical properties of hot-isostatically pressed (HIP) 14%Cr ODS ferritic steel. The grain size was reduced, improving mechanical properties, tensile streng ...
Precious alloys are subjected to a series of mechanical and thermal operations during manufacturing. For 18 carat gold alloys the processing operations can induce L1(0) ordered nanodomains, known to lead to the buildup of residual stresses, which are the p ...
W-2Y, W-1Y(2)O(3) and W-2Y(2)O(3) materials have been fabricated using two different powder metallurgy methods. While W-2Y and W-1Y(2)O(3) have been fabricated using mechanical alloying and hot isostatic pressing (Hipping), W-2Y(2)O(3) has been fabricated ...
A W-2Y(2)O(3) material was developed in collaboration with the Plansee Company (Austria). An ingot of the material having approximate dimension of 95 mm x 20 mm was fabricated by mixing the elemental powders followed by pressing, sintering and hot forging. ...
One of the most crucial steps in the development of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steels is the engineering of their microstructure, which includes control of the type and size of oxide nanoparticles. In this work, t ...
