  1. MSE 791: Mechanical Properties of Nanostructured MaterialsModule 3: Fundamental Physics and Materials Design Instructor: Yuntian Zhu Office: 308 RBII Ph: 513-0559 ytzhu@ncsu.edu Lecture 7 Utilizing deformation mechanisms to design nanostructured materials for superior mechanical properties 1

  2. Only a few nanostructured materials show good ductility The yielding strength is normalized by the yield strength of a material’s coarse-grained counterpart Nanostructured materials have much higher strength than their coarse-grained counterparts Koch, Scripta Mater. 49 (2003) 657 Zhu & Liao, Nature Mat., 3 (2004) 351. Issue: How do we obtain high ductility in nanostructured materials?

  3. Early attempts to improve the ductility always sacrifice the strength

  4. Design Nanomaterials with high strength and High ductility The Issue:How do we increase the ductility without trading off the strength?

  5. nano Ti Compression CG Ti What affects the ductility of nano/UFG materials? • Low strain hardening • low ductility • Lack of dislocation accumulation • Strain rate sensitivity • Nano fcc metals has higher strain rate sensitivity → high ductility • Nano bcc metals have lower strain rate sensitivity • The effect of low strain hardening dominates • Low ductility Tensile curves Considère's Criterion for Necking: TheKeyto high ductility: Restore strain hardening

  6. fcc systems

  7. Two-Phase Alloy: Introducing second-phase particles to trap dislocations Materials: Age hardening 7075 Al alloy Processing: Cryo-rolling to produce nanostructure, then age hardening Zhao, Liao, Cheng, Ma and Zhu, Advanced Mater. 18, 2280-2283 (2006).

  8. Before Tensile testing Second phase particles, low dislocation density Zhao, Liao, Cheng, Ma and Zhu, Advanced Mater. 18, 2280-2283 (2006).

  9. Second phase particles can be used to simultaneously improve the strength and ductility • Density • Particle size • Other potential methods to introduce second phase particles • Powder consolidation • Formation of inter-metallic compound during ball-milling

  10. Strategy III: use preexisting twin to restore strain hardening capability Single-Phase Alloy with Medium Stacking Fault Energy: Introduce pre-existing twins Electrodeposited Cu After tensile deformation Lu, Shen, Chen, Qian, Lu, Science, 304 (2004) 422.

  11. Deformation at liquid nitrogen temperature to introduce deformation twins: Processing and structure Zhao, Bingert, Liao, Cui, Han, Sergueeva, Mukherjee, Valiev, Langdon, Zhu, Adv. Mater. 18, 2949-2953 (2006)

  12. Deformation at liquid nitrogen temperature to introduce deformation twins: Mechanical Behavior Zhao, Bingert, Liao, Cui, Han, Sergueeva, Mukherjee, Valiev, Langdon, Zhu, Adv. Mater. 18, 2949-2953 (2006)

  13. Nanostructural Hierarchy in Al-age hardening alloy • High density of dislocations • Subnanometer clusters in grain interior • Nanometer-sized solute clusters (4 nm, 4x18 nm ) • Nanometer grains (~26 nm) Nature Comm. DOI: 10.1038, Sept. 2010.

  14. Strategy IV: High-angle grain boundary and low dislocation density yield higher ductility in Cu HPT+CR ECAP Zhao, Bingert, Zhu, Liao, Valiev, Horita, Langdon, Zhou, Lavernia, APL, 92, 081903 (2008).
