Popis: | The evolution of microstructure and microhardness was studied in a commercial tungsten-25% rhenium (mass fraction) (W-25Re) alloy processed by the high pressure torsion (HPT) procedure under a pressure of 7.7 GPa up to 10 revolutions at different temperatures. The results show that the samples processed by 10 revolutions at room temperature could have the smallest grain size at around 0.209 μm. High saturation hardness (HV ∼1200) could be achieved after the rapid strengthening stage for samples processed by 10 revolutions both at room temperature and at 573 K. Microstructural observation and analysis from Hall–Patch relationship could reveal that grain refinement and grain boundaries strengthening are the main factors of hardening mechanism in W-25Re alloy. It is also demonstrated that sintered W-25Re sample may have brittle phase separation phenomenon after HPT processing. |
