The thermodynamic properties of copper-nickel mattes

Matousek, Jan Werner January 1961 (has links)
The thermodynamic properties of the components in the Cu-Ni-S ternary system have been measured by means of the H₂S/H₂ ratio in a gas phase equilibrated with the molten matte at 1200°C. The measured sulphur potentials were integrated to establish the activities in the Cu₂S-Ni₃S₂ pseudobinary and the isoactivity lines over the ternary system. The resultant activity pattern suggests the presence of a pseudocomponent at approximately the composition 0.02 N Ni, 0.63 NCu, and 0.35 NS . The influence exerted by the pseudocomponent causes the activity of Cu₂S to be nearly constant in the miscibility gap. In this same region the activity of Ni₃S₂ is restricted to low values. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Materials Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Periodic precipitation in Cu-Ni-Co

Vandermousen, Roland F. January 1967 (has links)
An investigation of precipitation was carried out on the system Cu-Ni-Co at temperatures varying from 600°C to 800°C over a wide range of composition . The precipitation process was studied primarily by use of X-ray diffraction techniques. The precipitation was observed to procede by a spinodal decomposition process. The initial wavelength of the modulated structure was in the range 40 to 55Å, in good agreement with the theory for spinodal decomposition. On ageing, a coarsening was observed for all alloys aged inside the spinodal. This coarsening appeared to follow a law of the form Q[superscript: m] – Qo[superscript: m] = k (t-to) where Q = wavelength at time t Qo = wavelength before the coarsening begins at time to k and m = constants The activation energy of the coarsening process was found to be 65 kcal/mole + 10 kcal suggesting that volume diffusion was the controlling factor. RESUME Le présent travail étudie la formation de précipités dans divers alliages du systéme Cu-Ni-Co au cours de vieillissements à des temperatures de 600°C a 800°C. L’évolution de la précipitation a été suivie principalement par diffraction des rayons X. On a observé que la précipitation procède par décomposition spinodale. La longeur d'onde initiale de la structure modulée est comprise entre 40 et 55Å; en bon accord avec la théorie de la décomposition spinodale de Cahn. Au cours du vieillissement on a mesuré un accroissement de la longeur d'onde pourtous les alliages traités à l'intérieur du spinodal. Cet accroissement de longeur d'onde obéit à une loi de la forme Q[superscript: m] – Qo[superscript: m] = k (t-to) ou Q = longeur d'onde au temps t Qo = longeur d’onde avant que le grossisement commence, à to k et m = constantes if energie d'activation du mécanisme de croissance des précipités a été déterminée; sa valeur, 65 kcal/mole suggére que la diffusion en volume est le facteur préponderant. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Materials Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Environmental effects on the fatigue behavior of copper nickel alloys

Sudarshan, T. S. January 1984 (has links)
Mode I and Mode III fatigue tests were performed on copper nickel alloys in helium, salt water environments. The hydrogen, oxygen, two alloys used air and in this investigation were 90-10 and 70-30 copper nickel. Both alloys contained iron which was added to improve the erosion corrosion resistance. The extent of cracking varied with the test environment. Tests showed that oxygen and humid air promoted cracking while salt water helium was used as the baseline retarded cracking when environment. Hydrogen promoted cracking when compared to helium but retarded cracking if comparisons were made with oxygen or humid air. The environmental effects (helium as the base case} in the Mode I tests in gaseous environments were manifested in the form of shorter fatigue lives, easier crack initiation, marginally higher crack growth rates and the development of intergranular fracture at the surface. These effects were accompanied by a change in the near surface deformation characteristics. The increases in fatigue life induced by testing in aqueous environments were greatly extended if the copper nickel was galvanically coupled to steel. Mode III tests showed the same ranking of environmental effects as Mode I tests and also showed multiple initiation, brittle fracture and secondary cracking. Two models were proposed to explain the observed results. One was based on the dilation-aided diffusion of oxygen ahead of the crack tip and subsequent oxidation of internal iron particles. The oxidation caused a volume expansion which produced internal tensile strains and facilitated fracture. The other mechanism was based on dilation-aided transport of hydrogen with subsequent accumulation of hydrogen at interfaces, resulting in a lowering of the interfacial strength and promoting intergranular fracture. The observed increases in life in the aqueous environments were rationalized by the reduced oxygen content available in the stagnant solutions. These observations suggest that the presence of iron accelarates fatigue in copper nickel alloys exposed to aggressive environments. Thus, any application involving fatigue loading with simultaneous exposure to aggressive environments should attempt to ensure that the iron content of the copper nickel alloys is minimized. / Doctor of Philosophy

Effect of aqueous environments on the fatigue behavior of 90-10 copper nickel

Harvey, Daniel P. January 1985 (has links)
Fatigue tests on compact tension specimens of 90-10 copper nickel were conducted in 3.5% NaCl solutions. Anodic or cathodic currents were applied during testing. Anodic currents decreased and cathodic currents increased the fatigue life. Both anodic and cathodic currents changed the fracture mode from predominantly transgranular to intergranular. Constant extension rate tests were performed on similar CT specimens in environments of 3.5% NaCl solution and 3.5% NaCl solution titrated to pH 1.0 with various levels of applied current. The environment had little influence on the monotonic failure of 90-10 copper nickel. Polarization studies were conducted to determine the effects of welding and pH on the corrosion behavior of 90-10 copper nickel. The rate of corrosion was less in the weld and the heat affected zone than in the base metal. As the pH of the environment was lowered, the corrosion rate of 90-10 copper nickel increased due to the retardation of film formation and repassivation. These studies showed that three different mechanisms of corrosion fatigue were likely: localized anodic dissolution, surface film rupture and hydrogen embrittlement. The dominance of one mechanism over the other two depends on the applied current. No evidence of susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking was found, therefore, a true corrosion fatigue process is operative in 90-10 copper nickel. / Master of Science / incomplete_metadata
