Description

Current ways to alter the microstructure of materials are usually through heat treatments, alloying, and other physical metallurgical methods. Recent efforts in the 21st century are focused on altering the microstructure of a material without physical contact which can be achieved through exposure to a magnetic field (MF). The motivation of this research is to study the quantum effects by subjecting solid-state metals to exposure of MFs. Many of the popular metals currently used in industry are paramagnetic. The ability to alter the microstructure and thus properties of these paramagnetic materials through a magnetic field would open new avenues to … continued below

Description

Current ways to alter the microstructure of materials are usually through heat treatments, alloying, and other physical metallurgical methods. Recent efforts in the 21st century are focused on altering the microstructure of a material without physical contact which can be achieved through exposure to a magnetic field (MF). The motivation of this research is to study the quantum effects by subjecting solid-state metals to exposure of MFs. Many of the popular metals currently used in industry are paramagnetic. The ability to alter the microstructure and thus properties of these paramagnetic materials through a magnetic field would open new avenues to the field of research, including, potentially, a pollution-free, non-contact route. The effects of a magnetic field on the mechanical properties of paramagnetic materials were observed through compression testing of the pure paramagnetic material samples induced in a magnetic field. XRD and PPMS were used to relate flow stress to dislocation density and magnetic property of the samples when exposed to the presence of a static magnetic field. The effects of a magnetic field relative to alloyed paramagnetic materials were observed through the same procedure as pure paramagnetic elements. For this purpose, -Ti alloys were chosen as literature suggests a phase transition from  phase to  phase when tested in the presence of a magnetic field. The results indicate that the MF affected the dislocation density and yield stress of the different systems.
