In this work, the microstructure and sliding wear behavior of a spray-formed Al 90 Cu 4 Fe 2
Cr 4 (at%) alloy was studied. Mechanical properties under compression and Vickers …

The inherent brittleness of quasicrystal materials limit their application as structural
materials, so they are widely used in surface films/coatings. However, it is still difficult to …

Cold spray (CS) technology has proven a great potential in the production of composite
coatings, enabling the production of materials with superior qualities such as enhanced …

An Al-based quasicrystalline composite has been processed by spray-forming resulting in a
microstructure containing α-Al and a decagonal quasicrystalline phases as the major …

Six quasicrystal alloys were created by varying their composition and subsequent
microstructure. The corrosion of those quasicrystal alloys was investigated in an artificial …

Different industries, including aerospace, marine, and automotive, widely use titanium alloys
such as Ti-6Al-4V. Although, this alloy has excellent properties; it is highly susceptible to …

Quasi-crystalline metal foams are considered a new class of materials, as they differ
fundamentally from conventional materials in their atomic structure and mechanical …

The heat treatment of (Al63Cu25Fe12) 99Ce1 alloy was performed at 650, 750, and 850◦ C
for different holding times. The effects of the heat treatment process on the alloy's …

This work describes an aid to three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction based on serial section
technology for better characterizing non-transparent material microstructure and orientation …

Magnetron sputtering was used in the current study to deposit the quasicrystal (QC) coating
on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. After the sputtering process, a continuous argon flow at 700 C was …
