face centered cubic
Co, Cr, Fe, are less ductile and stronger and form what kind of lattice
body centered cubic
Ti is very strong and tightly packed into which lattice
hexagonal close packed
what kind of grain crystal structure is ideal
small grain structure
smaller grains brings about more of what
grain boundaries
Common form of alloys is a
solid solution
Mixture of elements at the atomic level, and is similar to a mixture of liquids that are soluble in one another is called a
solid solution
The solvent atoms are replaced by the atoms of the solute in which solid solution
substitution solid solution
The solute atoms take up the space between the solvent atoms in which solid solution
intersititual solid solution
All of the following are criteria for what solid solution?
- The atoms must have the same valency
- The atoms must have the same crystal structure (e.g. BCC)
- The atomic sizes are within 15% of each other
Substitution solid solution
All of the following are criteria for what solid solution?
-The atoms must have similar crystal
structure
-The atomic size of the solute is less than 60% of the solvent
