Superplasticity in intermetallic alloys and ceramics

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Surprisingly, certain materials which are commonly seen as brittle may exhibit superplastic behavior under the proper conditions, and the ability to use superplastic forming methods on intermetallics and ceramics opens a realm of possibilities. By using unique processing techniques, superplasticity has been observed in such advanced materials as nickel silicides (Ni3Si), yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (YTZ) and an Al2O3-reinforced YTZ composite (Al2O3/YTZ). © 1989 TMS.
