Wrought products are those in which final shape is achieved by working rather than by casting. Cast alloys are described in separate Brush Wellman publications. Although the alloys in this guide are foremost in the line that has established Brush Wellman’s worldwide reputation for quality, they are not the only possibilities. We welcome the opportunity to work with you in selecting or developing an alloy to make your application succeed. 3 Alloy Guide Wrought Alloys Brush Wellman manufactures copper beryllium in Brushform® 290 is a mill hardened strip product that is several distinct compositions. These fall into two similar in strength properties and composition to Alloy categories: alloys selected for high strength (Alloys 25, 190 but exhibits improved formability. Component 190, 290, M25 and 165) and alloys selected for high reliability and fabrication considerations may require a conductivity (Alloys 3, 10, 174 and Brush 60®).

  • Transportation Vehicle Light-Weighting with Polymeric Glazing and Mouldings
    GCEP Final Report for Advanced Transportation Transportation Vehicle Light-Weighting with Polymeric Glazing and Mouldings Investigators Reinhold H. Dauskardt, Professor; Yichuan Ding, Graduate Researcher; Siming Dong, Graduate Researcher; Dongjing He, Summer student; Material Science and Engineering, Stanford University. Abstract Polymeric glazing and mouldings are an extremely high “want” from the transportation community, enabling more creative designs as well as improved part consolidation。 However, plastic windows and mouldings must have high-performance and low-cost protective coating systems with lifetimes in excess of 10 years. Current polymeric glazings do not meet durability/performance requirements for near-term implementation. Our project targets new coating system manufacturing to address durability and cost issues necessary to meet or exceed transportation engineering requirements. Atmospheric plasma deposition (APD) is an emerging technique that enables plasma deposition of coatings on large and/or complex geometry substrates in ambient air without the need for expensive vacuum or inert manufacturing platforms. It is an environmentally friendly and solvent-free technique, minimizing chemical waste throughout the process as well as greenhouse gas emissions when compared to current wet chemistry aqueous sol-gel manufacturing techniques. Low deposition temperatures (<50°C) allows the deposition on plastic and organic substrates. Using our state-of-the-art APD coating capabilities, we have demonstrated the ability to deposit highly transparent bilayer organosilicate coatings with superior combinations of elastic modulus and adhesion compared to commercial sol-gel coatings. The bilayer is deposited on large substrates by atmospheric plasma, in ambient air, at room temperature, in a one-step process, using a single inexpensive precursor. The significantly improved elastic modulus translates into improved durability and resistance to scratching and environmental degradation.

  • Correlation of Hardness Values to Tensile Strength
    Correlation of Hardness Values to Tensile Strength Semih Genculu, P.E. Various procedures and approaches are utilized to determine if a given material is suitable for a certain application. The material may be tested for its ability to deform satisfactorily during a forming operation, or perhaps for its ability to operate under a certain stress level at high temperatures. For technological purposes, economy and ease of testing are important factors. Hardness tests: In many cases it is possible to substitute for the relatively time consuming and costly tensile test with a more convenient test of the plastic deformation behavior of metals, a hardness test. Hardness is defined as resistance of a material to penetration of its surface, and the majority of commercial hardness testers force a small penetrator (indenter) into the metal by means of an applied load. A definite value is obtained as the hardness of the metal, and this number can be related to the tensile strength of the metal. In the Rockwell test, hardness is measured by the depth to which the penetrator moves under a fixed load. The elastic component of the deformation is subtracted from the total movement. In the Brinell and Vickers/Knoop scales, on the other hand, the hardness is measured by dividing the load by the area of an indentation formed by pressing the corresponding indenters into the metal. Therefore while the Rockwell number is read directly from a gage, which is part of the tester, the Brinell and Vickers/Knoop require optical measurements of the diameters or diagonals, respectively. While all indentation hardness tests may be thought to serve the same purpose, each one has definite advantages with some being more applicable to certain types of materials and size and shape parts than the others.

    Proposed RoHS Additional Substances Consultation – Beryllium and its compounds Submitted by: John Wagner Director of Materials Management Association of Equipment Manufacturers Email: [email protected] Tel: 001 414 298 4164 Background and issues caused by substitution AEM is a US trade association representing manufacturers of industrial equipment including products in the construction and agricultural sectors. Some of AEM members’ products are in scope of the RoHS directive although many are excluded as types of professional Non-Road Mobile Machinery (as defined by RoHS) or as equipment that is specifically designed to be installed in excluded types of equipment. Products that are in scope are believed to be mainly in RoHS category 11 with some in categories 6 and 9. Most AEM members’ products are complex products designed for long lifetimes and high reliability. They must comply with other legislation apart from RoHS, such as the Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) Emissions Regulation that necessitates gaining approval in the EU from a Notified Body after any changes are made to product design such as would result from new RoHS restrictions. The NRMM Regulation requires engines to meet strict emissions limits, have proven reliability and long lifetimes and manufacturers must test engines to obtain this data before approval can be granted. Another issue for AEM’s members is that most of their products have niche uses and are not made in large numbers. However many of the component parts used are obtained from suppliers whose main markets are types of products that are excluded from RoHS, such as in heavy goods vehicles.

  • 1 Introduction to Hardness Testing
    Copyright © 1999 ASM International ® Hardness Testing, 2nd Edition, 06671G All rights reserved. Harry Chandler, editor www.asminternational.org 1 Introduction to Hardness Testing Hardness has a variety of meanings. To the metals industry, it may be thought of as resistance to permanent deformation. To the metallurgist, it means resistance to penetration. To the lubrication engineer, it means resis- tance to wear. To the design engineer, it is a measure of flow stress. To the mineralogist, it means resistance to scratching, and to the machinist, it means resistance to machining. Hardness may also be referred to as mean contact pressure. All of these characteristics are related to the plastic flow stress of materials. Measuring Hardness Hardness is indicated in a variety of ways, as indicated by the names of the tests that follow: • Static indentation tests: A ball, cone, or pyramid is forced into the sur- face of the metal being tested. The relationship of load to the area or depth of indentation is the measure of hardness, such as in Brinell, Knoop, Rockwell, and Vickers hardness tests. • Rebound tests: An object of standard mass and dimensions is bounced from the surface of the workpiece being tested, and the height of rebound is the measure of hardness. The Scleroscope and Leeb tests are exam- ples. • Scratch file tests: The idea is that one material is capable of scratching another. The Mohs and file hardness tests are examples of this type. • Plowing tests: A blunt element (usually diamond) is moved across the surface of the workpiece being tested under controlled conditions of load Copyright © 1999 ASM International ® Hardness Testing, 2nd Edition, 06671G All rights reserved.

The present work emphasizes on the relation between hardness and yield strength of Al-Mg-Si alloys considering Tabor type equations. Al-0.5Mg-0.4Si alloy has been artificially aged at various temperatures (100 to 250 oC) for different time durations (0.083 to 1000 h) and the ageing response has been assessed by measuring the Vickers hardness and yield strength.

To calculate the relative hardening of the alloy, hardnessthe type of and crystal degree lattice of hardening and its parameter of multi-element value are alloys required. (HEAS).
