| Research Abstract |
High-strength nanocrystalline Ni-W alloys were produced by electrodeoisition. The plating bath for the electrodeposition contained nickel sulfate, trisodium citrate, sodium tungstate and ammonium chloride, and was operated at various bath concentrations and conditions of electrolysis. The ductility and tensile strength of the deposited alloys are strongly influenced by inclusion of codeposited hydrogen during deposition process. After degassing the hydrogen, the high-strength nanocrystalline Ni-W alloy containing about 20.7 at.% W with an average grain size of about 3 nm has been obtained : the tensile strength attained to about 2300 MPa. The high ductility of this alloy was also observed : bending through an angle of 180 degree was possible without breaking. On annealing these materials at various temperatures, however, grain growth occurred and they lost their ductility. In order to estimate the critical grain size for keeping the good ductility in the nanocrystalline alloys, grain boundary sliding is considered to occur along the close-packed planes of the nanocrystalline grains under the condition where the nanoscaled spherical hard grains is represented as a densely packed array.
