Deformation behaviour in superplastic 5083 Al alloy during biaxial gas pressure forming with lubrication

Abstract

Effect of lubrication on deformation behaviour of a superplastic material has been given little attention, although it is important for industrial application. In this paper, a superplastic 5083 Al alloy under biaxial deformation was investigated by deforming the sheet into a cylindrical die cavity with and without lubrication. Several interrupted tests were performed to bulge the sheets to various depths for two different strain rates, the formed parts were then utilised to evaluate the effect of lubrication on metal flow, thickness distribution and cavitation. It was found that reducing the interfacial friction by use of a lubricant improved the metal flow after the deformed sheet had made contact with the bottom surface of die. Changes of the metal flow during forming not only developed a better thickness distribution of the formed part, but also reduced cavitation levels.

采用自制的V型对向式双振动头功率超声处理装置,研究了熔体浇注温度和流道倾斜角度对5083合金半固态组织细化规律的影响.结果表明,功率超声对5083合金组织有明显的细化作用;流道倾角一定时,晶粒尺寸和形貌随着浇注温度的提高(试验所选范围)而变得细小和均匀;5083合金组织在流道倾角为20°时细化效果最佳.     

非恒温电解液中AA5083Al-Mg合金阳极氧化膜的制备及其耐蚀性

采用硼酸-硫酸-草酸电解液在铝合金表面制备有序多孔层,研究阳极氧化过程中电流随时间的变化,分析界面反应并计算膜层的生长效率。采用扫描电子显微镜、交流阻抗和动电位极化曲线研究膜层的微结构及其在不同温度环境下的耐蚀性。结果表明：在氧化层界面双离子层浓度的增大有利于提高膜层的生长效率。所制备的阳极氧化膜厚度为8-9μm,孔径为10-14 nm,膜层的微观形貌受金属基体组织结构的影响较大。在沸水封闭后膜层为分层结构,表面呈细片状。氧化膜层封闭后能够明显降低试样的自腐蚀电流密度,且耐蚀性随着环境温度的升高而具有更好的稳定性。     

The degradation of corrosion resistance for Al 5083 alloy after thermal and superplastic forming processes

Corrosion behavior, particularly the intergranular corrosion susceptibility of a superplastic Al 5083 alloy (denoted as Al 5083S) and a non-superplastic Al 5083 alloy (denoted as Al 5083N) with various thermal processes and a superplastic forming process, has been systematically evaluated. The nitric acid mass loss test (NAMLT) according to ASTM G 67 indicated that the weight loss of Al 5083S was larger than that of Al 5083N, which was due to the finer grain size in the former alloy. It also showed that superplastically formed specimens of Al 5083S and the specimens of Al 5083S and Al 5083N treated with the same thermal process as the superplastically formed specimens suffered from severe intergranular corrosion. The serious intergranular corrosion of these specimens was attributed to the formation of continuous β (Mg₂Al₃) precipitates at grain boundaries, i.e., the sensitization effect. Such a detrimental effect can be eliminated by a postforming annealing treatment at 345 °C for 1 h. Furthermore, electrochemical measurements in a 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution also revealed that the sensitized specimens possessed more active corrosion potential (E_corr), breakdown potential (E_b), and protection potential (E_pp), as well as higher corrosion current density (i_corr) and passive current density (i_p), than those of the as-received specimens. Experimental results also showed that the corrosion resistance of the superplastically formed specimen was the worst among all specimens, which was attributed to the formation of cavities during the superplastic forming in addition to the sensitization effect caused by the thermal processing. The influences of both detrimental effects on the corrosion resistance of the Al 5083 specimens were also discussed.

目的 研究5083铝合金搅拌摩擦焊接（FSW）的组织、力学性能和拉伸应变,分析接头的拉伸行为。方法 采用数码相机、光学显微镜、电子扫描显微镜等表征分析方法,对焊缝的表面宏观成形、微观组织、断口形貌进行分析;利用拉伸机、三维数字动态散斑应变测量分析系统和显微维氏硬度计对接头的力学性能和拉伸应变进行测试。结果 不同焊接工艺参数下FSW接头的最低抗拉强度为305 MPa,断后延伸率达到了14%以上;焊核区拉伸应变沿板厚方向呈现上高下低和上宽下窄的不均匀梯度分布,发生了较大程度的变形强化,直到拉伸应力达到抗拉强度。断裂失效前300/120接头的最大拉伸应变在晶粒粗大的母材区,500/120和500/200接头的最大拉伸应变则位于晶粒尺寸差异较大的后退侧焊核区与热力影响区交界处。接头拉伸断口宏观上均为45°剪切韧性断裂,微观上均以韧窝韧性断裂为主,而高热输入500/120接头出现脆性断裂特征,其延伸率明显降低。结论 高热力耦合输入使铝合金FSW接头薄弱区发生转变,强韧性降低。     

Sulforaphane is Synergistic with CB-5083 and Inhibits Colony Formation of CB-5083-Resistant HCT116 Cells

Human p97 is a potential drug target in oncology. Mutation-driven drug resistance is an obstacle to the long-term efficacy of targeted therapy. We found that the ATPase activity for one of the CB-5083-resistant p97 mutants was reduced, which also attenuated the degradation of K48 ubiquitinated proteins in cells. To understand how p97 mutant cells with significantly reduced ATPase activity can still grow, we discovered reduced levels of CHOP and NF-κB activation in the p97 mutant cells and these cellular changes can potentially protect HCT116 cells from death due to lowered p97 activity. In addition, the NF-kB inhibitor Sulforaphane reduces proliferation of CB-5083 resistant cells and acts synergistically with CB-5083 to block proliferation of the parental HCT116 cells. The combination of Sulforaphane and CB-5083 may be a useful treatment strategy to combat CB-5083 resistance.
