In this study, the two types of high-strength low-alloy steels were melted and cast in a vacuum induction furnace. Phase transition temperature of HSLA steel was calculated by JMatPro software. The calculation results show that the two different types of HSLA steels which have equal phase proportions of ferrite and austenite at a temperature of approximately 820 and 800 °C in HSLA-I and HSLA-II, respectively. In addition, the effect of chemical composition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of steels were studied. The results indicate that the ultimate tensile stress value of HSLA-II samples was greater than the HSLA-I samples by about 35%, and the yield stress and breaking strength value of HSLA-II were higher than HSLA-I as well.

This paper aims to research the high-temperature oxidation behavior of TiC/Mo composite. Adding 5 wt.% TiC, Mo-based composite was prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering. The composite was oxidized at different temperatures (400°C, 600°C, 800°C, 1000°C and 1200°C) and times (5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min and 60 min). When oxidation was at 400-1000°C for 20 minutes, the degree of oxidation intensifies with the increase of temperature, and TiO2 was observed at 1000°C. While the temperature was 1200°C, the oxidation rate gradually decreased with the increase of time. The result shows that the formation of TiO2 can inhibit the oxidation process.
