The microstructures and properties of pure molybdenum wire and $Mo-La_2O_3$ alloy wire annealed at different temperatures are investigated systematically in this paper. It is shown that the recrystallization temperature, toughness and strength at room temperature of this wire was increased greatly by addition of $La_2O_3$. The room temperature embrittlement of this wire annealed at high temperature is improved remarkably.

Oil Pump rotor is essential parts for automobile and, it is consisted of drive rotor and driven rotor in general. These parts are requested different properties according to environment. There are 2 types of Oil Pump rotor according to its usage. One is used for electric system, and the other is used for shaft-driven system. Especially, high precision and functionality is required in electric pump, and cost reduction is required in shaft-drive pump without slowing down its performance. This paper is mainly describing about the non-machine treated shaft-drive pump, based on the trial sample producing process.

Biomimetic apatite deposition behaviors on Zr-1Nb and Ti-6Al-4V plate with various surface conditions were examined. Both alloys were polished with abrasive papers to have different roughness and some of them were treated in NaOH before exposition in simulated body fluid. NaOH treatment was found to enhance the deposition rate of apatite on Ti-6Al-4V significantly. On the other hand, the deposition rate of Zr-1Nb was not influenced by NaOH treatment. Without NaOH treatment, the polished Zr-1Nb with abrasive paper was found to induce more apatite nucleation than the polished Zr-6Al-4V.

The paper presents the possibilities of obtaining new composite materials based on sintered porous ceramics with particles and fibre of $Al_2O_3$ infiltrated by aluminum alloy. The EN AC - AlSi12 alloy features the matrix material, whereas the RF50AX-301 preform, of Saffil Automotive, was used as the reinforcement. Examinations of ceramics preforms permeability were made. Metallographic examination of composite materials made on light microscope and in scanning electron microscope show that aluminum alloys fill micropores in the matrix. New composite materials show twice higher value of hardness in comparison with matrix. Results indicate that it is possible to infiltrate porous ceramic with liquid aluminum alloy to obtain new composite materials were advantageous properties of each component are connected.

In this paper, the fundamental attributes, phase composition of three pre-alloyed powders for diamond tools by water atomization were investigated. The density, hardness, bend strength and bending modulus of their hot pressing samples were examined. The results showed that the three pre-alloyed powders have excellent low temperature sintering characteristics. The physical and mechanical properties of the samples were found to be nearly the same as those of fine cobalt powders.

The shrinkage variation of Low Temperature Cofired Ceramics(LTCC) limits the size of the substrates that impose limitations on embedded passive components. This paper focuses on the method of minimizing or controlling planar shrinkage and reducing distortion during firing. The laminated sheets of alumina and glass were sintered at varying temperature, and depending on the amount of the glass ceramics. When the sintered of multi-layer structure with $Al_2O_3/Glass/Al_2O_3$, the glass infiltrated entirely into $Al_2O_3$ layer at the temperature of about $950^{\circ}C$ or higher.

The paper investigates the possibility to avoid extrinsic embrittlement of $Ni_3Al$, also increasing the high temperature strength, by alloying with both Fe - of a high strengthening effect and Cr - able to remove a part of diffused oxygen along the grain boundaries. As Cr homogenization in $Ni_3Al$ is difficult because of its low diffusion coefficient, for its improving a mechanical alloying (MA) step before the compound synthesis by Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) was adopted. The obtained better homogenization resulted in higher mechanical resistance and deformability than of the unalloyed $Ni_3A/Ni_3Al$ alloys of the same composition obtained without MA step.

Considering the idea that some properties, especially the mechanical properties of $Ni_3Al$ at ambient temperature can be improved by adding of some substitutional/interstitial elements, our goal was to obtain these materials starting from mechano-composites powders. In this aim, using mechanical alloying techniques three type of mechano-composite powders starting from elemental powders were obtained. Then, by reactive sintering in argon atmosphere at temperature over $900^{\circ}C$, alloyed $Ni_3Al$ materials were realized. This paper presents our research results regarding the microstructural aspects and phase formation in obtained materials.

Driven by the unavailibility of commercial test equipment for tensile and creep testing at temperatures up to $3000^{\circ}C$ a measuring system has been developed and constructed at the University of Applied Sciences, Jena. These temperatures are reached with precision by heating samples directly by electric current. Contact-less strain measurements are carried out with image processing software utilizing a CCD camera system. This paper covers results of creep tests which have been conducted on TZM sheet material (thickness 2 mm) in different heat-treatment conditions in the temperature range between $1200^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$.
