Effect of solution treatment on the microstructure, phase transformation behavior and functional properties of NiTiNb ternary shape memory alloys fabricated via laser powder bed fusion in-situ alloying

#LaserPowderBedFusion enables high-performance NiTiNb shape memory #alloys, where optimized solution treatment tailors eutectic morphology, boosts strength and #ductility, raises transformation temperatures, and preserves >90% shape recovery.

The influence of nano-size La2O3 and HfC on the microstructure and mechanical properties of tungsten alloys by microwave sintering

#Microwave-sintered W–Fe–Co–Ni heavy #alloys reinforced with nano-La2O3 and HfC achieve refined grains, higher densification, and superior mechanical performance—La2O3 boosts #ductility while HfC enhances strength.
