- Using combustion synthesis approach we fabricated B2 NiAl intermetallic compound as well as quasibinary Ni(Al50Ti50) alloy, where half Al atoms are randomly substituted by transitional metal Ti. Youngs modulus for synthesized materials was measured and appeared to be 222 +/- 10 GPa for NiAl and 175 +/- 15 GPa for Ni(Al50Ti50) phases. Using first-principles simulations in the framework of the Density Functional Theory, we investigate the elastic properties of Ni(Al1-xTix) system, including single-crystal, as well as polycrystalline elastic moduli. Direct comparison of the experimental and theoretical values of the Youngs modulus demonstrates that the employed theoretical approach allows carefully predict elastic properties of NiAl-based intermetallics. In particular, we predict that alloying NiAl with Ti should increase the ductility of the intermetallic phase. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

- Due to their high melting temperature, high-temperature oxidation resistance and outstanding mechanical properties, TaxZr1-xC solid solutions are promising ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC). However, accelerated knowledge-based development of UHTCs solid solutions requires reliable data regarding the properties of the solution phases in the whole interval of concentrations. At present, there are contradictory reports regarding the existence of the miscibility gap in Ta-Zr-C system at temperatures below 900 degrees C. In this work, we carry out ab-initio calculations of the thermodynamic properties of TaxZr1-xC alloys and demonstrate that the solid solutions should not decompose into TaC and ZrC end member compounds. We synthesize single-phase samples of TaxZr1-xC with compositions x = 0.9, 0.8, 0.6, and 0.3 by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) and anneal the samples for 40 h. We do not observe any sign of the decomposition of the solid solution during the annealing, corroborating the conclusions obtained by theoretical simulations. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V.
