    Boriding Kinetics and Mechanical Properties of Borided Commercial-Purity Nickel
    (Natl inst Science Communication-niscair, 2017) Uçar, Nuri; Calik, A.; Ucar, N.; Delikanli, K.; Carkci, M.; Karakas, S.; Bankacılık ve Finans
    Kinetics of boride layer growth and tensile behaviour in bonded commercial-purity nickel was investigated. Bonding was carried out in a solid medium consisting of Ekabor-II powders at 1173, 1223 and 1273 K for periods of 3, 5 and 8 h. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy showed column morphology in the boride layer. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses indicated that the boride layer formed on the surface consisted mainly of Ni2B, with precipitates of Ni6Si2B. A parabolic relationship between layer thickness and processing temperature was observed. The obtained results showed that although the boride layer thickness increased with increasing boriding temperature and time, boriding parameters had no significant effect on the hardness of the boride layer or the matrix. Tensile properties were negatively influenced by the bonding treatment; both yield and tensile strength values decreased due to the presence of the hard yet brittle surface coating. In addition, the growth kinetics of boride layers was also analysed. The results showed a nearly parabolic relationship between the layer thickness and the process temperature, with activation energy of 47.3 kJ mol(-1).

    Coating of Si3n4 With Hap Via Atomic Layer Deposition
    (Korean Assoc Crystal Growth, inc, 2023) Akin, Seniz R. Kushan
    Silicon nitride (Si3N4) is an attractive implant material, particularly in orthopedic surgery. Although it has only been on the market for spinal fusion surgery requirements so far, it is also a promising candidate for other implant applications where load-bearing is crucial. In this study, we aimed to examine the potential of making the material surface more advantageous for various implant applications by coating it with a very thin hydroxyapatite (HAp) layer using the atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. This was done to improve the material's bioactivity without sacrificing its mechanical properties. Characterization results showed that using a 3:1 CaO:PO4 ALD cycle ratio resulted in the formation of very fine crystalline HAp after heat treatment at 500 degrees C. The bioactivity assessment made by immersing the coated film in SBF revealed HAp formation on the surface, and it was observed that the bioactivity of this surface improved compared to the uncoated one.

    (2021) Kuşhan Akın, Şeniz Reyhan
    Silisyum Nitrür (Si3N4) genellikle yüksek sıcaklık ve yapısal uygulamalarda tercih edilen, üstün özellikli bir oksit dışı seramiktir. Çok sert bir malzeme olmasının yanı sıra, çubuksu beta () tanelerin gelişimi ile seramik malzemeler içinde yüksek kabul edilebilecek tokluk değerleri elde etmek mümkün olabilmektedir. Bu özelliklerine ilave olarak biyo uyumluluğunun da anlaşılması ile birlikte özellikle, bu malzemenin biyoseramik olarak kullanım potansiyelini arttırmak amacıyla son on yılda yapılan çalışmaların sayısı da artmıştır. Bu çalışmada da reaksiyon bağlama tekniği ile, çevre biyolojik dokularla entegrasyon açısından avantajlı olan gözenekli Si3N4 seramiklerinin üretilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Sinterleme ilavesi olarak sisteme yapılan CaO, Y2O3 ve CeO2 katkılarının, elde edilen Si3N4 seramiklerin fiziksel ve mikroyapısal özelliklerine ve bunların sonucu olarak antibakteriyel davranışlarına etkileri incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar CeO2’in hem E. coli hem de S. aureus açısından dezavantajlı bir sinterleme ilavesi olduğunu, Y2O3’in ise en avantajlı ilave olduğunu görülmüştür. CaO ilavesi yapılan sistem ise E. coli için düşük, S. aureus için yüksek oranda bakteri üremesi ile sonuçlanmıştır.

    Effect of Post Fabrication Aging Treatment on the Microstructure, Crystallographic Texture and Elevated Temperature Mechanical Properties of In718 Alloy Fabricated by Selective Laser Melting
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2022) Bilgin, Guney Mert; Davut, Kemal; Esen, Ziya; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Ozer, Seren
    The effect of building direction and post fabrication aging treatment on the microstructure, crystallographic texture and high temperature mechanical properties of Inconel 718 (IN718) alloy fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) method was investigated. After aging, arc-shaped structures seen in as-fabricated samples dis-appeared and converted into a mixture of columnar and equiaxed grains. Nano-sized gamma '' and/or gamma' precipitates were formed upon aging; however, MC type carbides and Laves phase encountered in as-fabricated samples were not dissolved completely after aging. Moreover, aging did not alter the texture ((001)//building direction (BD)) of as-fabricated samples. Mechanical properties of the alloys under tension were influenced by the build direction, aging time and test temperature. As-fabricated samples produced in vertical direction exhibited higher room temperature strengths with lower ductility due to orientation of overlapped prior melt pools. Room temperature tensile test results revealed that peak aging caused a significant improvement in ultimate tensile strength (UTS), from 1066.5 MPa and 998.4 MPa to 1408.5 MPa and 1330.4 MPa whereas elongation values decreased from 27.5% and 32.2% to 19.6% and 23.7% in vertically and horizontally built samples, respectively. Peak-aged samples (aged at 700 degrees C for 8 h) tested at 600 degrees C displayed serrated regions in their stress-strain curves due to dynamic strain aging (DSA). Although strength values of the samples displayed an expected decrease by temperature, ductility of the samples reduced to minimum at temperatures around 700-800 degrees C, which was attributed to intermediate temperature embrittlement.

    Designing thermochemical processes for ti-alloys produced by additive manufacturing techniques
    (2019) Esen, Ziya; Doğu, Merve Nur; Bilgin, Güney Mert; Tan, Evren; Berkay Gümüş, Berkay; Dericioğlu, Arcan F.
    Ti-6Al-4V alloys are extensively used in biomedical, aerospace and petro-chemical applications mainly due to their high specific strength, excellent corrosion resistance and high fatigue strength. In contrast to conventional techniques, additive manufacturing techniques make possible production of parts with complex geometries in one step by minimizing the usage of raw materials. However, post heat treatment processes need to be applied to reduce residual stresses created and to get uniform controllable microstructure so as to obtain desired mechanical properties. Conventional annealing heat treatments are effective in eliminating the residual stress and increasing the ductility. But, they usually degrade the strength and result in coarsening the microstructure. In this study, thermochemical process, called thermo-hydrogen process (THP), was applied to Ti-6Al-4V alloy parts produced by selective laser melting (SLM) and electron beam melting (EBM) with the aim of increasing ductility without degrading the alloy strength. Additively manufactured parts initially hydrogenated at 650oC for 1 h under H2+Ar gas mixture and then, dehyrogenated at 700oC for 18 h under high vacuum. As a result of alloying with hydrogen and dealloying turned martensitic microstructure in SLM parts into fine + lamellar phase mixture. On the other hand, microstructural refinement in EBM parts were limited since as-manufactured parts were already composed of fine lamellar microstructure. THP prevented grain growth and grain boundary α-phase formation in SLM parts. Ductility of the alloys increased by 110 %, while the strength decreased slightly only by 10 %. However, the effect of the THP on mechanical properties of EBM samples couldn’t be observed due to their high surface roughness which induced notch effect.

    Effect of SiC addition on the thermal diffusivity of SiAlON ceramics
    (2017) Kuşhan Akın, Şeniz Reyhan; Turan, Servet; Gençoğlu, Pervin; Mandal, Hasan
    Despite the fact that thermal conductivity is a crucial parameter for SiAlON ceramics with respect to their suitability in various applications, including high-temperature structural components, wear parts, and cutting tools, studies on SiAlON ceramics reported thus far mainly focus on the improvement of their mechanical properties. In view of the lack of sufficient studies on the thermal conductivity of SiAlON ceramics, this study investigates the improvement in the thermal diffusivity behaviour of SiAlON ceramics by the addition of highly conductive SiC particles. As solid-solution SiAlON ceramics exhibit complex crystal structures typically composed of defects, the phonon scattering increases, subsequently decreasing diffusivity. In particular, the improvement in the thermal diffusivity of both α- and β-SiAlONs was investigated by the addition of 0.25 wt% SiC. In addition, the effect of the SiC particle size on the thermal diffusivity of β-SiAlON was examined. Using inverse diffusivity data, intrinsic and extrinsic scattering parameters were determined, and compared to intrinsic scattering, extrinsic scattering was a dominant factor. Furthermore, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of SiCp-reinforced α and -β-SiAlON ceramics were recorded to examine the SiC particle distribution.

    Wetting Behavior and Reaction Layer Formation in C/Sic Composite-Titanium Alloy Joints
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Esen, Ziya; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Saltik, Simge
    The present study investigates the effect of brazing parameters on reaction layer formation, and mechanical properties of C/SiC composite-Ti6Al4V alloy joints produced by brazing technique. The wetting mechanism of the C/SiC composite surface by the Ag-CuTi-based active brazing filler alloy has also been studied and correlated with the reaction layer formation. The strength of C/SiC composite/Ti6Al4V alloy joints increased at first and then decreased with increasing reaction layer thickness. The joints with 1-mu m-thick reaction layer, which were obtained by brazing at 915 degrees C for 15 min, had the highest shear strength of 33 MPa. Brazing filler alloy presented a minimum contact angle of 15 degrees on the C/SiC composite surface at 915 degrees C during the wetting experiments. 915 degrees C and 15 min were determined to be the optimised brazing parameters to ensure almost complete wetting and a uniform reaction layer for effective adhesion of the C/SiC composite surface.

    Nanoscale Structure and Structural Relaxation in Zr 50cu 45al 5 Bulk Metallic Glass
    (2012) Melgarejo, Z.H.; Kalay, Y.E.; Kalay, I.; Kramer, M.J.; Stone, D.S.; Voyles, P.M.; Hwang, J.
    Hybrid reverse Monte Carlo simulations of the structure of Zr 50Cu 45Al 5 bulk metallic glass incorporating medium-range structure from fluctuation electron microscopy data and short-range structure from an embedded atom potential produce structures with significant fractions of icosahedral- and crystal-like atomic clusters. Similar clusters group together into nanometer-scale regions, and relaxation transforms crystal-like clusters into icosahedral clusters. A model refined against only the potential does not agree with the fluctuation microscopy data and contains few crystal-like clusters. © 2012 American Physical Society.

    Microstructural and Texture Evolution During Thermo-Hydrogen Processing of Ti6al4v Alloys Produced by Electron Beam Melting
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2020) Esen, Ziya; Davut, Kemal; Tan, Evren; Gumus, Berkay; Dericioglu, Arcan F.; Dogu, Merve Nur
    The present study was conducted to reveal the effects of building angles and post heat-treatments (2-step Thermo-Hydrogen Processing (THP) and conventional annealing treatment) on the density, microstructure and texture of Ti6Al4V alloy parts produced by Electron Beam Melting (EBM). The results showed that regardless of the building angle; the density, microstructure and crystallographic texture (defined with respect to building angle) of the as-produced samples were identical; having Widmanstatten a structure and columnar beta-grains which are parallel to building direction. The main texture component for the alpha phase was (10 (1) over bar0)//building direction, and for beta phase (001)//building or heat flow direction. The first step of THP, namely, the hydrogenation step, produced a needle-like microstructure and increased the local misorientations due to lattice distortion. On the other hand, after application of the second step of THP, dehydrogenation step, microstructure was refined, particularly alpha-grains that were larger than 10 mu m and located at grain boundaries. Moreover, THP randomized the crystallographic texture since it involves beta to alpha phase transformation, at which one beta-grain can produce 12 distinct alpha-variants. The grain boundary misorientation distributions also changed in accordance with the microstructural changes during the 2-step THP. On the other hand, annealing coarsened the grain boundary and Widmanstatten alpha phases; moreover, it changed the texture so that the basal planes (0001) rotated 30 degrees around the building direction.
