Characterization of NiTi Shape Memory Damping Elements designed for Automotive Safety Systems
(2014)
Actuator elements made of NiTi shape memory material are more and more known in industry because of their unique properties. Due to the martensitic phase change, they can revert to their original shape by heating when subjected to an appropriate treatment. This thermal shape memory effect (SME) can show a significant shape change combined with a considerable force. Therefore such elements can be used to solve many technical tasks in the field of actuating elements and mechatronics and will play an increasing role in the next years, especially within the automotive technology, energy management, power, and mechanical engineering as well as medical technology. Beside this thermal SME, these materials also show a mechanical SME, characterized by a superelastic plateau with reversible elongations in the range of 8%. This behavior is based on the building of stress-induced martensite of loaded austenite material at constant temperature and facilitates a lot of applications especially in the medical field. Both SMEs are attended by energy dissipation during the martensitic phase change. This paper describes the first results obtained on different actuator and superelastic NiTi wires concerning their use as damping elements in automotive safety systems. In a first step, the damping behavior of small NiTi wires up to 0.5 mm diameter was examined at testing speeds varying between 0.1 and 50 mm/s upon an adapted tensile testing machine. In order to realize higher testing speeds, a drop impact testing machine was designed, which allows testing speeds up to 4000 mm/s. After introducing this new type of testing machine, the first results of vertical-shock tests of superelastic and electrically activated actuator wires are presented. The characterization of these high dynamic phase change parameters represents the basis for new applications for shape memory damping elements, especially in automotive safety systems.
Mechanical properties after stretching testings were calcu-lated and experimentally determined via Tempcore method for bar core, bar surface and whole bar cross section. It was displayed on the base of experiments and imitating simulation that deformation in core and surface areas of a bar are equal and therefore influence of structural parameters in the core area is principally decisive for initiating of neck forming in the surface area. The results showed that resistance to destruction of martensite surface layer has rather less effect on bar properties in general in comparison with previous investigations. It is concluded that improvement of core structure quality can help to lower brittleness of the whole bar. It was also proved that used techniques provide good concordance between the obtained results and experimental data. Therefore, the additivity rule for structural components can be used successfully for determination of whole bar parameters, taking into account thickness of surface layer that can be measured easily using hardness sensor. It will simplify practically quality control of products.
Durch eine Aufweitung des Kristallgitters mittels Niedertemperatur-Eindiffusion von Kohlenstoff und/oder Stickstoffatomen können in der Randzone von nichtrostenden Stählen eine hohe Härte und eine hohe Verschleißbeständigkeit erzeugt werden, ohne dass zusätzliche Legierungselemente verwendet werden müssen. Die metallkundlichen Hintergründe für die Härtung, die Wirkung auf Verschleißvorgänge und mögliche Anwendungsbereiche werden geschildert. Anhand von Reibwerten wird gezeigt, in welcher Weise das Reibungsverhalten bei Schraubverbindungen durch die Behandlung verändert wird. Über Migrationsversuche wird nachgewiesen, dass die Ionenabgabe durch die Oberflächenhärtung nicht erhöht, sondern sogar abgesenkt wird. Neben dem besseren Verschleißschutz und einer höheren Dauerfestigkeit sichert diese Oberflächenbehandlung am nichtrostenden Stahl den Schutz gegen die Kontamination von Pharmaprodukten durch Metallabrieb/-ionen. Tests an oberflächengehärteten Edelstahlproben ergaben weiterhin, dass durch die Oberflächenhärtung die Biokompatibilität des nichtrostenden Edelstahls nicht beeinträchtigt wird.
Die Beständigkeit von hochlegierten korrosions- und säurebeständigen Stählen wird primär durch den Chromgehalt bestimmt. Allerdings gibt es entlang der Wertschöpfungskette von der Stahlerschmelzung bis zum fertigen Produkt eine Vielzahl weiterer Einflussfaktoren. Dem Schleifen kommt hier eine besondere Bedeutung zu, da es je nach Wahl der Prozessparameter sowohl zu einer signifikanten Verschlechterung als auch zu einer Verbesserung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit führen kann. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird aufgezeigt, dass die erzeugte Rauheit nur eine begrenzte Aussagekraft bietet. Vielmehr erhöhen lokale Mikrodefekte die Anfälligkeit gegen Lochfraß – je nach Ausprägung und Anzahl. Die Automatisierung für die Innenbearbeitung von Behältern im pharmazeutischen Apparatebau kann dabei zu einer signifikanten Verbesserung der Oberfläche und einem homogeneren Erscheinungsbild führen.
Improving the tribological properties of Stainless Steels by low-temperature surface hardening
(2022)
Ferromagnetism is of increasing importance in the growing field of electromobility and data storage. In stable austenitic steels, the occurrence of ferromagnetism is not expected and would also interfere with many applications. However, ferromagnetism in austenitic stainless steels after low-temperature nitriding has already been shown in the past. Herein, the presence of ferromagnetism in austenitic steels is discovered after low-temperature carburization (Kolsterizing), which represents a novel and unique finding. A zone of expanded austenite is established on various austenitic stainless steels by low-temperature carburization and the respective ferromagnetism is investigated in relation to the alloy composition. The ferromagnetism occurring is determined by means of a commercial magnetoinductive sensor (Feritscope). Ferromagnetic domains are visualized by magnetic force microscopy and a ferrofluid. X-ray diffraction measurements indicate a clear difference in the lattice expansion of the different alloys. Furthermore, a different appearance of the magnetizable microstructure regions (magnetic domain structure) is detected depending on the grain orientation determined by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Strongly pronounced magnetic domains show no linear lattice defects, whereas in small magnetizable areas linear lattice defects are detected by electron channeling contrast imaging and EBSD.
