Abstract

Abstract: For micro or nanophase identification, the ideal method is electron microscopy which combines experimental technique and theoretical analysis in order to solve the problem which is typical in non homogeneous materials. In this work, two heterogeneous materials have been investigated: a Fe- 22Cr - 5Ni -0.3Mo - 0.03C (wt%) duplex stainless steel and a 6H-SiC reinforced Al-Cu alloy fabricated by the Ospray technique followed by extrusion and aging. This aging often gives rise to the precipitation of intermetallic compounds some of which can be new phases. Using microdiffraction, EDS and HREM, it was possible to identify two new phases: the orhorhombic τ phase in the heat treated duplex steel and the tetragonal Al7Cu3Zr2 in the reinforced aluminium copper alloy
