Abstract Quasicrystalline alloys and their composites have been extensively studied due to complex atomic structures, mechanical properties, unique tribological thermal behaviors. However, technological applications of these materials not yet come age still require additional developments. In this review, we discuss the recent advances that made in last years toward optimizing fabrication processes properties Al‐matrix reinforced with quasicrystals. We detail high‐strength rapid‐solidified...

It was shown recently that the grain size contribution to flow stress and strain rate sensitivity of pure metals having different structures can be estimated by a model deformation for boundary sliding. The present research extends this earlier study estimating in CrMnCoFeNi high entropy alloy. This alloy has attracted significant attention recent years due its remarkable mechanical properties which include higher strength compared f.c.c. from solid solution strengthening. work demonstrates...

The Ti-6Al-4V alloy is widely used in orthopedic and dental implants due to its excellent mechanical, corrosion, biological properties. However, it exhibits several limitations that can compromise performance clinical applications. Notably, the suffers from a high coefficient of friction, which lead increased wear reduced longevity under relative movement conditions. Additionally, shows susceptibility localized corrosion physiological environments, particularly presence bodily fluids may...

Abstract Aluminum-based quasicrystals typically form across narrow composition ranges within binary to quaternary alloys, which makes their fabrication and characterization challenging. Here, we use combinatorial approaches together with fast techniques study a wide compositional range including known quasicrystal forming compositions. Specifically, magnetron co-sputtering fabricate libraries of ~140 Al-Cu-Fe ~300 Al-Cu-Fe-Cr alloys. The alloys compositions are measured through automated...

In order to obtain quasicrystalline (QC) phase by mechanical alloying (MA) in the Al-Cu-Fe system, mixtures of elementary Al, Cu and Fe proportion 65-20-15 (at. %) were produced high energy ball milling (HEBM). A very type mill (spex) short times (up 5 hours) employed. The resulting powders characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) electron microscopy (SEM). QC was not directly formed under conditions employed this work. However, transformations...
