Synthesis of MoSi2-boride composites through in situ displacement reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a molybdenum disilicide matrix and different borides as reinforcements were produced using in situ displacement reactions, both using mixtures of lower silicides and boron or elemental powders as starting materials.

Phase Transformations in Cast Superaustenitic Stainless Steels

TL;DR: In this article, phase transformations in cast superaustenitic stainless steels were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), TEM and energy and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress or Strain Induced Martensitic and Bainitic transformations during ausforming processes

TL;DR: In this article, ausforming treatment consists in plastically deforming a fully austenitized steel below the recrystallization stop temperature, prior to either a martensitic or a bainitic transformation.
