  1. Dispersion and Solution Hardening

  2. Solid Solution Hardening -Impurity atoms go into either substitutional or interstitial solid solution. Lattice strain field interacts between dislocations and these impurity atoms result, and consequently, dislocation movement is restricted. - The strain (or stress) field “roughen” the lattice structure and hinder the dislocation movement.

  3. Solid Solution Hardening Solid solution hardening in brass

  4. Solid Solution Hardening There is an interaction between the strain fields about a soluteatom and the strain fields about the dislocations.

  5. Solid Solution Hardening Example – Al Alloys 1.8%

  6. 5000 series Aluminum Alloys (Al-Mg) • Hold at 450C (Solution Heat Treatment) • Cool moderately quickly to room temperature

  7. Solid Solution Hardening – Al Alloys

  8. Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening Dispersion Strengthening - Strengthening by the introduction of a second phase. Precipitation Strengthening - Through the formation of extremely small uniformly dispersed particles of a second phase within the matrix

  9. Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening-Small particles • Particle Cutting • Particles should be small enough to be cut. • Large size particles offer more resistance to dislocation motion.

  10. Strengthening Particle Radius Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening-Small particles • Strengthening effect can be estimated as: • G – Shear Modulus • r – Particle radius • b – Burgers vector • f – volume fraction of particles • - strain field factor

  11. Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening- Big Particles Dislocation Bypass by the Orowan Bowing Mechanism:

  12. Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening- Big Particles The stress required to bypass in this manner is given by the linetension when the dislocation is bowing at the maximum curvature – Depends then on the distance between particles (L):  - Shear strength increase G – Shear Modulus b – Burgers vector L – Particle spacing

  13. Strengthening Particle Radius Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening - Big Particles f – volume fraction of particles r – particle radius

  14. Precipitate or Dispersion Hardening - Particle Size Effect
