Experimental investigation and multi-scale modelling of the behavior of mechanically activated metallic powders : from binary systems to High Entropy…
2021
Generally, metal alloys consist of a main element associated with other elements present in smaller quantities such as iron, nickel, aluminum or copper alloys. The precise composition of an alloy is adjusted according to the required performance: high temperature behavior, corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, durability ... In 2004, a Taiwanese scientist, JW Yeh, had the idea of making an alloy base of several elements, at least 5, whose composition in the alloy varies between 5% and 30% at. Yeh invented the high entropy alloy (HEA). Mixed on a microscopic scale, the metals form a remarkably stable solid solution. The explanation is thermodynamic. An alloy is all the more stable as …
Development of high entropy tungsten-based alloys by powder metallurgy processes
2022
Although metallurgy is a very old research domain, many innovations are still being considered, such as the emergence of high-entropy alloys. These alloys, composed of at least three elements, are characterized by a chemical composition without a majority element and most of the time equimolar. Research in this field is very recent since the first studies concerning these alloys are from the early 2000s. The original chemical compositions of these alloys open the way to many possibilities to obtain unusual properties.In conjunction with these developments, powder metallurgy processes are expanding quickly because of the advantages they offer over more traditional techniques (foundry and for…
Consolidation and densification mechanisms of copper powder during Spark plasma sintering (SPS)
2015
Spark plasma sintering is a manufacturing process that leads to dense materials with fine microstructures. SPS combines heating and uniaxial load as well as the Hot Pressing (HP) process but the material is heated using a pulsed current. The phenomena occurring during SPS are not fully understood and are still an open point: -Which densification and consolidation mechanisms are involved during SPS? -Why is sintering by SPS more efficient than sintering by traditional ways such as HP? –Does electrical current modify the sintering mechanisms? The aim of this work is to answer these questions in the case of spherical copper powder (from 10 to 50 µm). Comparisons between SPS and HP were perform…
Elaboration de matériaux à gradient de propriétés fonctionnelles pour les composants face au plasma des machines de fusion thermonucléaires
2014
The objective of this study was to develop a Functionally Graded Material (FGM) W / Cu to replace the compliance layer (Cu-OFHC) in the plasma facing components of thermonuclear fusion reactor like ITER. The peculiarity of this work is to elaborate these materials without exceeding the melting temperature of copper in order to control its microstructure. The co-sintering is the most attractive solution to achieve this goal.The first phase of this study has been to decrease the sintering temperature of the tungsten to achieve this co-sintering. The elaboration of a Functionally Graded Materials being delicate, thermo-mechanical calculations were performed in order to determine the number and…
