Heterostructured materials

Yuntian Zhu et al.

Summary: Heterostructured materials are a new class of materials composed of heterogeneous zones with dramatically different properties. They exhibit superior mechanical or physical properties that surpass their conventional homogenous counterparts. This review focuses on the structural heterostructured materials, which achieve their superior mechanical properties through hetero-deformation induced strengthening and work hardening. The unique deformation behavior of these materials, along with their wide application potential, is driving the rapid development of the field.

Evading strength and ductility trade-off in an inverse nacre structured magnesium matrix nanocomposite

Xi Luo et al.

Summary: The study proposes an innovative strategy called inverse nacre structure, which embeds elongated and curled soft constituents in a matrix of hard constituent to create an ordered brick-and-mortar arrangement. This strategy has been applied in a particle reinforced metal matrix composite, resulting in a nanocomposite with high strength and especially high tensile elongation. The tailored inverse nacre structure contributes to a stable microcrack-multiplication process, promoting strain hardening and maintaining the post-ultimate tensile strength. This strategy is not limited to specific materials and offers a generic pathway for developing high-performance materials for engineering applications.

Trimodal grain structure enables high-strength CNT/Al-Cu-Mg composites higher ductility by powder assembly & alloying

Xiaowen Fu et al.

Summary: A novel trimodal grain structure was designed to achieve an excellent strength-ductility combination in CNT/Al-Cu-Mg composites. Tensile tests, in-situ tracking of strain distributions, and computational simulations were used to provide insights into the underlying mechanisms of how the trimodal grain structure enhances the mechanical properties of the composites. The results show that the trimodal grain structure facilitates strain hardening and alleviates strain/stress concentrations, leading to high yield strength and large tensile ductility in the composites.

Xudong Rong et al.

Summary: A novel manufacturing method of Al-CuO composite was reported, showing high strength and fracture elongation. The toughening mechanism was rationalized based on the influence of Al2O3 on dislocation punched zone and plastic zone. The size and spatial distribution of Al2O3 significantly contributed to the high mechanical performance of the composite.

Facile route to bulk ultrafine-grain steels for high strength and ductility

Junheng Gao et al.

Summary: Bulk ultrafine-grained steel is prepared by an approach that involves the rapid production of coherent, disordered nanoprecipitates, which restrict grain growth but do not interfere with twinning or dislocation motion, resulting in high strength and ductility. This method can be extended to other alloy systems and easily applied to existing industrial production lines.

Achieving high strength and ductility in ODS-W alloy by employing oxide@W core-shell nanopowder as precursor

Zhi Dong et al.

Summary: The aggregation and coarsening of oxide particles at grain boundaries has been a bottleneck for improving the mechanical properties of oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) alloys. In this study, core-shell nanopowder precursors were employed to achieve uniform dispersion of oxides in ODS alloys, resulting in a significant enhancement in strength and ductility of the alloy. This strategy has the potential to be applied to other dispersion-strengthened alloy systems, offering promising prospects for high-temperature applications.
