Abstract
The breakdown of classical Hall-Petch scaling remains an area of scientific interest, and will govern the limiting strength of nanocrystalline alloys for structural applications. In this work we discuss the hardness and scratch resistance of nanocrystalline nickel and nickel-tungsten solid solution alloys, assessed through nanoindentation and nano-scratch techniques. The materials have been prepared by electrodeposition, and are fully dense with grain sizes between 6 and 22 nm. In this range of grain sizes, there is some evidence for a breakdown of Hall-Petch scaling, reflected in both the hardness and abrasion data. The role of solid solution alloying on this breakdown is also discussed.
