The thickness of the final layers is dependent upon the thickness of the original aluminum and titanium foils. This process is highly flexible since metal/alloy foils other than titanium can be used individually, or in combination, within the same composite, to produce their respective metal/metal- aluminide combinations. For example, MIL composites using iron-based, nickel-based, and cobalt-based alloys as the starting metal layer (instead of tita- nium) have been successfully fabricated using the described technique.

  • Reinforcements—The Key to High Performance Composite Materials
    ^_ a ^-9I NASA Technical Memorandum 103230 Reinforcements—The Key to High Performance Composite Materials Salvatore J. Grisaffe Lewis Research Center Cleveland, Ohio Prepared for the Complex Composites Workshop sponsored by the Japanese Technology Evaluation Center Washington, DC, March 27, 1990 NASA REINFORCEMENTS - THE KEY TO HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPOSITE MATERIALS Salvatore J. Grisaffe National Aeronautics and Space Administration Lewis Research Center Cleveland, Ohio 44135 INTRODUCTION High-temperature reinforcements are the key to high-performance composite materials. Such materials are the critical enabling technological issue in the design and development of 21st-century aerospace propulsion and power systems. The purpose of this section is to review some of the insights and findings developed on Japanese fibers and whiskers during the Japanese Technology Evalu- ation Center (JTEC) one-week visit to Japan and to examine these in light of current U.S. fiber technology. Conventional materials are too heavy to provide effective structural mem- bers for future flight systems. The estimated cost of moving 1 pound to orbit is about $1000; cost per pound to the Noon is about $50,000; and cost per pound to Mars is about $500,000. Thus, the payoff for low-density, high-strength fibers and composites becomes clear. Figure 1 shows how high-performance com- posites could generally benefit any future high-speed civil transport aircraft. NOx intrusion and noise must be overcome before such an aircraft can be consid- ered feasible. Minimal environmental intrusion is contingent on combustors that can operate at extremely high temperatures and so , must ,be constructed of, for example, ceramic matrix composites.

  • Applications of an Aluminum-Beryllium Composite for Structural Aerospace Components
    Applications of an Aluminum -Beryllium Composite for Structural Aerospace Components William Speer and Omar S. Es -Said Mechanical Engineering Department, Loyola Marymount University, 7900 Loyola Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90045 -8145, USA Abstract The us e of AlBeMet AM162, an aluminum -beryllium metal matrix composite, is an effective way to reduce the size and weight of many structural aerospace components that are currently made out of aluminum and titanium alloys. These savings, which are essential for today’s technologies, are primarily due to the material’s high modulus and low density combined with its better than average specific strength. The raw material costs are significantly higher than they are for traditional engineering alloys, and the avai lable billet sizes are more limited than they are for aluminum and titanium alloys. Although the material costs are higher for the aluminum -beryllium composite, ease of machining makes it financially competitive when compared to equivalent parts made out of titanium alloys. Due to toxic nature of beryllium, however, debris -generating operations must be strictly regulated to limit worker’s exposure to the material and protect them from potentially fatal diseases. Keywords: Metal matrix; AlBeMet; High el astic modulus; Low density; Weight reduction; Stiffness -driven design 1. Introduction The aerospace industry is continually searching for ways to reduce the weight of its products and maximize the amount of profit -making payload in launch vehicles. One o f the most common ways engineers reduce weight is to make their products out of low-density alloys or engineering composites. These materials offer very high strength and/or stiffness to weight ratios; therefore, they require less mass and take less space to support a given load in comparison to other material choices.

Prakash Kolli 1,* ID and Arun Devaraj 2 1 Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA 2 Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, WA 99354, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-301-405-5217; Fax: 301-405-6327 Received: 21 May 2018; Accepted: 25 June 2018; Published: 30 June 2018 Abstract: In this article, we provide a broad and extensive review of beta titanium alloys. Beta titanium alloys are an important class of alloys that have found use in demanding applications such as aircraft structures and engines, and orthopedic and orthodontic implants. Their high strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent biocompatibility, and ease of fabrication provide significant advantages compared to other high performance alloys. The body-centered cubic (bcc) b-phase is metastable at temperatures below the beta transus temperature, providing these alloys with a wide range of microstructures and mechanical properties through processing and heat treatment. One attribute important for biomedical applications is the ability to adjust the modulus of elasticity through alloying and altering phase volume fractions. Furthermore, since these alloys are metastable, they experience stress-induced transformations in response to deformation. The attributes of these alloys make them the subject of many recent studies. In addition, researchers are pursuing development of new metastable and near-beta Ti alloys for advanced applications. In this article, we review several important topics of these alloys including phase stability, development history, thermo-mechanical processing and heat treatment, and stress-induced transformations.

  • Structure and Properties of Titanium Tantalum Alloys for Biocompatibility
    Structure and Properties of Titanium Tantalum Alloys for Biocompatibility Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Daniel E. Huber Graduate Program in Materials Science and Engineering The Ohio State University 2016 Committee: Dr. Hamish L. Fraser, Advisor Dr. David McComb Dr. Stephen Niezgoda Copyrighted by Daniel E. Huber 2016 Abstract In this thesis, the phase stability and elastic modulus of Ti–Ta simple binary alloys as well as alloys with small additions of ternary elements have been studied. The binary alloy from a nominal 8 to 28 wt.% Ta was first explored using a combinatorial approach. This approach included Laser Engineered Net Shape (LENS™) processing of materials and subsequent characterization by instrumented indentation and site specific Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The composition range of 15 to 75 wt.% Ta was further explored by more traditional methods that included vacuum arc melting high purity elements, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and modulus measurements made by ultrasonic methods. Beyond the simple binary, alloys with low levels of ternary elements, oxygen, aluminum, zirconium and small additions of rare earth oxides were investigated. The crystal structure with space group Cmcm was chosen for it applicability with P63/mmc and !"3! sub group / super group symmetry. This provides a consistent crystal structure framework for the purpose of studying the α to β transformation pathway and associated α’ and α’’ martensitic phases. In this case, the pathway is defined by both the lattice parameters and the value of the parameter “y”, where the parameter “y” describes the atomic positions of the [002]α’’ plane.

  • High Strength Aluminum Alloys with Emphasis on Scandium Addition K
    CAFP - 2008 Special Metal Casting and Forming Processes HIGH STRENGTH ALUMINUM ALLOYS WITH EMPHASIS ON SCANDIUM ADDITION K. Venkateswarlu, V. Rajinikanth, Ajoy Kumar Ray National Metallurgical Laboratory, Jamshedpur 831007 e-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION Aluminium is perhaps the youngest among the large group of metallic elements. It was first commercially produced in the year 1886 and rose in prominence meteorically to occupy today the second position in the total weight produced, next only to steel. Aluminium is a silvery white ductile metal with a FCC structure. It has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity (next only to copper and silver). It has low density (2.7 g/cc) which gives it a very high specific modulus and strength. Pure aluminium is the soft metal with the modulus value of 70 GPa and the yield strength of about 40 MPa. One of the most important properties of aluminium is to form a thin protective oxide layer on the surface. This layer is tenacious, adherent, deformable and impervious to most corroding elements. Aluminium is the common structural material because of the following properties. Light weight : Aluminium weighs roughly one third of iron and steel, but is one and a half times as heavy as magnesium. It finds application in reducing the weight of the component and structures particularly connected with transport, especially with aerospace application. High strength to weight ratio can be achieved in certain alloys, which show marked response to age hardening. High strength to weight ratio saves a lot commercially when dead weight is decreased and pay load of transport vehicle is increased.
