    摘要: A composite material (20) comprises a matrix layer (21) having a plurality of interspersed reinforcing whiskers (23) and a plurality of continuous reinforcing fibers (25) embedded within the matrix layer (21). The preferred embodiment includes a matrix layer (21) which may be a ceramic, intermetallic or metallic material having interspersed reinforcing whiskers (23) upon which a second layer of the matrix (24) having embedded continuous reinforcing fibers (25) is placed, and a third layer (22) of the matrix material having the interspersed reinforcing whiskers (23) on the second layer (24). The composite exhibits improved fracture toughness due to the crack deflection ability of whiskers (23) and crack bridging and fiber pull out due to continuous fibers (25) and minimizes creep associated with known ceramic and intermetallic composites.

    摘要: A process of making useful shapes by joining of tungsten alloys. Joining of tungsten heavy alloys which are alloys typically made from W—Ni—Fe is used. These alloys are typically manufactured by liquid phase sintering. This leads to difficulty in producing large length to diameter ratio parts that have some significant weight (such as penetrators). A “brick and mortar” approach is employed wherein smaller segments of this alloy (low length to diameter ratio) are joined to together to produce a larger part with higher length to diameter ratio.

    摘要: An abrasive composite particle comprising a cubic abrasive core particle encapsulated within a deposit of hexagonal metallurgical bond forming material comprising at least about 50 volume percent rhenium, ruthenium, osmium or mixtures thereof. The metallurgical bonds serve to retain the core particle in a matrix/binder very strongly. Metallurgical bonds are formed by the encapsulating material taking into solution, at the interface with the cubic abrasive core particle, some element or compound from the abrasive particle such as, for example, carbon or cubic boron nitride, from the core particle. Chemical bonds are not formed between the abrasive particle and the deposit. Suitable abrasive core particles include diamond, cubic carbides, cubic borides, cubic nitrides, cubic oxides, and the like. Conventional fabrication procedures such as chemical vapor deposition are employed to form the metallurgical bond forming deposit on the core particle. The composite abrasive particles are useful in forming articles according to conventional powdered metal processing operations. The articles so formed are useful for their hardness as well as their abrasiveness.

    摘要: Gun barrels made from advanced materials have the potential to provide a significant increase in barrel life as well as a reduction in weight (for advanced ceramic materials) for small caliber systems. The potential use of advanced materials as gun barrels is severely limited due to the difficulty in introducing the rifling pattern on the inner diameter. Most projectiles coming out of the guns are spin stabilized (for aerodynamic flight stability). This spin is imparted by a rifling pattern (lands and grooves) in the inner surface of the gun barrel. The processing of gun barrels made from advanced materials with internal rifling pattern poses a tremendous processing challenge to the materials community. The rifling lands and grooves and desired twist rate coupled with the difficulty of machining some of the advanced materials (ceramics, cermets, hardmetals, etc.) makes the economic manufacturing of such gun barrels extremely difficult. Currently, this form of rifling is achieved by machining in case of metallic gun barrels.The limitation in producing the rifled pattern lies with the conventional processing of complex shaped advanced materials such as ceramics, cermets, or hardmetals. Shaping of these typically requires careful diamond grinding. This grinding process is not only very expensive but it also introduces flaws in case of the brittle ceramics (microcracks). These flaws are detrimental to the performance of these advanced materials as rifled gun barrels. Thus, there is an opportunity and challenge to the materials community to come up with a processing solution that will allow advanced materials such as silicon nitride (Si3N4), SiAlON, hardmetals, etc. to be used as gun barrels that have the rifled pattern in the inner diameter.Herein are provided methods and compositions useful to form the rifled gun barrel tubes from advanced materials using little or no machining of the internal rifled geometry.

    摘要: A high density, high strength and high compressive strain tungsten heavy alloy consists essentially of tungsten in the amount of approximately 90% by weight, and the rest Mn and Ni in an amount sufficient to cause sintering at between 1100.degree. and 1400.degree. C. The W-Ni-Mn alloy exhibits characteristics of intense shear bands (which could indicate failure by adiabatic shear during high strain-rate dynamic testing) thus making it an attractive material for kinetic energy penetrators. Moreover, the alloy provides an inexpensive high density material which can be produced in furnaces for conventional ferrous powder metal part manufacturing and other conventional non-ferrous powder metal part manufacturing by lowering the sintering temperature by 2000.degree. to 300.degree. C.
