It was demonstrated that an increase in the volumetric energy density within the range of 28 to 139 J/mm³ led to the following effects: 1) increase in the relative density of the obtained O‑alloy from 97 to 99.9%, 2) intensification of axial texture with a pronounced 001 direction in the detected β/B2-solid solution, and 3) reduction in the Al content, increase in the Nb content, and lower enrichment with oxygen in the obtained samples. It was demonstrated that detachment from the build platform and longitudinal cutting of the O‑alloy results in the imbalance of residual stresses in samples synthesized on a platform, pre-heated at 200 °C, which is accompanied by the formation of cracks. This study considers the typical structural defects of the alloy, including pores, lack of fusion, and chemical heterogeneity, which are observed following SLM. A series of physical-mechanical properties of the synthesized O‑alloy samples were determined, including Vickers hardness (390–430 <i>HV</i>), elastic modulus (91–98 GPa), compressive yield strength (1060–1080 MPa), and compressive strain (of at least 30%). The relationship between these properties and the structural-textural state of the obtained O‑alloy samples is discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":702,"journal":{"name":"Metallurgist","volume":"68 6","pages":"845 - 854"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142595602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach implies the creation of a generalized model of the object under study taking the existing connections between its individual components into account, along with an analysis of the energetic, material, and informational resources inherent in this object. This allows selection of the most optimal solution for improving the technological system under analysis from a variety of possible options. Creation of high-entropy compounds of various compositions is an intensively developing direction of modern materials science. Due to their specific chemical composition, such materials may exhibit a unique combination of properties, thereby outperforming other types of compounds. In this work, we study structural and functional interactions in a technological system aimed at obtaining coatings by laser cladding of high-entropy materials, which are represented by the starting powders mixed in a certain proportion. The input and output parameters of the laser cladding process are established. This process is represented in the form of sequential phases, resulting in the formation of a coating on the surface of the product. The coating is characterized by both technological and specific properties, depending on the chemical composition of the starting powder components. A structural and functional scheme describing the process of coating formation from a high-entropy material during laser cladding is proposed. Connections between the input and output process parameters are demonstrated. These connections reflect the formation of specific coating properties in the process of laser cladding as a result of interaction of the powder material with the laser beam.

The chemical compositions of two novel jewelry alloys of 585 platinum-containing modifying additives of rhodium and ruthenium are proposed and patented. An analysis was carried out to evaluate the existing section rolling and drawing schedules for the three platinum alloys to identify more efficient drafting methods, with a focus on reducing the labor intensity of metal deformation processes and minimizing the force parameters. A computer model of section rolling for the studied jewelry alloys, based on 850 and 585 platinum, was developed to analyze the shape variation and force parameters of the process and to propose a new deformation schedule for the studied alloys with the accepted reduction distribution per pass. The new deformation schedule was characterized by a more uniform reduction distribution per pass than that observed in the existing schedule, allowing the number of rolling passes to be reduced due to their redistribution. In order to determine the rolling force and to model the process, an approximation formula was used to calculate the time resistance, which is dependent on the total degree of compression. By using proprietary software and computer simulation, the parameters of wire drawing with a diameter of up to 0.25 mm from the studied alloys were calculated, which allowed the deformation and force parameters to be assessed when implementing the proposed drafting schedule. In addition, it was established that the drawing process exhibits a sufficiently high safety factor and low power consumption.
