Abstract
The TiAl alloy is attracting attention as a lightweight and heat-resistant material, because of its high specific strength, excellent high-temperature formability, and fatigue strength. However, its applications are limited by its high unit price and low room temperature ductility. To overcome this issue, dissimilarly bonded materials have been extensively employed...... More

Abstract
To analyze the effects of intercritical heat treatment on the temper embrittlement of SA508 Gr.4N steels, two model alloys with different phosphorus (P) contents were fabricated. Each sample was heat treated by applying a conventional heat treatment process (quenching-tempering) with/without an intercritical heat treatment process (IHT) and a step-cooling heat..... More
