property, subsequent thermomechanical treatments have to be used for sintered products, including hipping and hot The eVect of iron on the sintering behaviour of forging.4,5 titanium powder was investigated from two aspects:To make more eYcient use of these bene ts in the BE (1) diVusional homogenisation of iron; (2) densi cation process, some new titanium alloys were developed, including of Ti-5Fe alloy. Under the present process conditions Ti-5Al-2Cr-1Fe,6 Ti-6·8Mo-4·2Fe-1·4Al-1·4V (Ref . 7) and ( heating rate of 5 K minÕ 1 and iron content 5 wt-%),Ti-4·5Al-3V-2Fe-2Mo.8 In these titanium alloys, Fe was iron dissolved into the titanium matrix thoroughly added to substitute partially more expensive vanadium. before the rst eutectic temperature; potential liquid Majima et al.9 studied the eVect of diVerent iron content phase did not appear. The addition of iron enhances the on the sintered density, microstructure and tensile properties sinterability of titanium alloys because the mobility of of pure titanium powder. The eVect of iron on the microtitanium atoms is accelerated by the rapid diVusion structure and the mechanical properties of Ti-5Al-2Cr-1Fe of iron. Most sintering shrinkage is achieved during was investigated by Hagiwara et al.6 Fujita et al.10 reported the heating stage from 950 to 1250°C. Based on the that the addition of transition element Fe could achieve diVusion creep mechanism of Nabarro-Hering, the higher sintering density in Ti-4·5Al-3V-2Fe-2Mo using the result can be explained as a combination of the diVusion same sintering process as compared with Ti-6Al-4V. They coeYcient D and inherent local sintering stress s, found that addition of iron could achieve higher sinterability and the dissolution of iron in titanium is expected to and better strength-ductility balance for titanium alloys, reduce the creep strength of the Ti matrix at high and consequently eliminate costly hipping or hot forging temperatures due to its very fast diVusion rate. The techniques. However, successful veri cation of its eVect eVect of iron on the microstructure of Ti-5Fe alloy is on the sintering behaviour of blended elemental titanium also discussed. The formation of a Widmanstättenlike alloys has not been thoroughly analysed, and a reasonable microstructure in Ti-5Fe alloy can be attributed to a mechanism regarding this eVect has not been suggested.

It is known that few Co-based superconducting
compounds have been
found compared with their Fe- or Ni-based counterparts. In this study,
we have found superconductivity of 4 K in the LaCoSi compound for
the first time. The combined analysis of neutron and synchrotron X-ray
powder diffractions reveals that LaCoSi exhibits an isostructure with
the known Fe-based LiFeAs superconductor, which is the first “111”
Co-based superconductor. First-principles calculation shows that LaCoSi
presents a quasi-two-dimensional band structure that is also similar
to that of LiFeAs. The small structural distortion may be more conducive
to the emergence of superconductivity in the LaCoSi compound, which
provides a direction for finding new Co-based superconducting compounds.
