Corrosion behavior of under‐, peak‐, and over‐aged 6063 alloy: A comparative study

The mechanical property of age‐hardenable Al‐alloys is governed by the state of ageing, which determines the microstructure and consequently, their corrosion behavior which is a vital aspect for a number of applications. This article presents a comparative assessment of corrosion behavior of under‐, peak‐ and over‐aged Al‐Mg‐Si alloy. Corrosion characteristics have been determined via immersion tests in 0.1 M ortho‐phosphoric acid solution and intergranular corrosion (IGC) tests. Corroded surfaces are examined by field emission scanning electron micrographs‐energy dispersive spectroscopy and 3D optical profilometer. The obtained results reveal that the corrosion rate at a specific immersion time as well as the depth of IGC increases in the order for under‐, peak‐, and over‐aged states. Irrespective of the state of ageing, corrosion loss increases linearly but the rate of corrosion decreases rapidly with increasing immersion time. The dominant mode of corrosion in under‐aged alloy is identified as localized pitting, while peak‐aged is highly susceptible to IGC in contrast extensive pitting corrosion is observed for over‐aged alloy. The observed differences in corrosion behavior are explained considering characteristics of precipitates. Formation of β (Mg₂Si) in case of over‐aged alloy and presence of inclusions like AlFeMnSi particles are found to accelerate pitting corrosion.     

控轧控冷中碳非调质钢的高周疲劳性能

 采用中碳非调质钢制造的轴类等零件常承受交变载荷，因而对钢材疲劳性能具有高的要求。为了评估控轧控冷工艺生产的非调质钢棒材的疲劳性能，利用旋转弯曲疲劳试验机研究了一种常用的钒微合金化中碳非调质钢38MnVS及对比钢38MnS的高周疲劳性能。结果表明，与38MnS钢相比，38MnVS钢中铁素体体积分数增加，组织明显细化；相分析表明约有54%的钒处于M（C，N）相中，且尺寸小于10 nm的M（C，N）粒子质量分数为32%，这些细小粒子的析出强化增量约为116 MPa。38MnVS钢的疲劳极限较38MnS钢提高了62 MPa，提高幅度约为18%；疲劳极限比从38MnS钢的0.43提高到38MnVS钢的0.48。M（C，N）相的析出强化及组织细化是38MnVS钢较38MnS钢具有优异疲劳性能的主要原因，但其疲劳性能仍低于锻态非调质钢。根据试验结果及文献数据，给出了预测铁素体＋珠光体型非调质钢疲劳极限的简便方法。     

SiO2对CaO-Fe2O3熔体结晶矿物组成及显微结构的影响

摘要：由于近年来低品位铁矿石的使用量增加，导致烧结过程中SiO2含量升高。SiO2是烧结矿中主要的脉石成分，其含量的变化与烧结矿最终质量密切相关。运用X射线衍射、光学显微镜和SEM-EDS方法研究了SiO2对CaO-Fe2O3熔体结晶矿物组成及显微结构的影响。研究结果表明，随着SiO2含量的增加，CaO-Fe2O3-SiO2熔体结晶产物中CaFe2O4(CF)含量减少而富铁铁酸钙(SFC)含量增加，CaFe2O4和SFC分别以块状和板条状析出，SFC的晶体结构随着SiO2含量的增加从Ca36Fe144O25-2向SFCA-I转变；当SiO2的质量分数超过3.0%时，椭圆状的Ca2SiO4（C2S）从熔体中结晶，其含量随SiO2含量的增加而增加，另有大量圆点状玻璃相分布于铁酸钙基体表面。

采用等离子喷涂技术在Q235钢基体上制备Fe48Cr15Mo14C15B6Y2非晶合金涂层,之后对涂层进行200,300,500,600,700℃热处理,研究了热处理对涂层微观结构、耐电化学腐蚀性能和耐均匀腐蚀性能的影响。结果表明:随着热处理温度的升高,涂层的非晶含量降低,孔隙率先减小后增大,经300℃热处理后涂层的孔隙率最低,且低于未热处理涂层的;热处理后涂层中的晶体相主要包括α-Fe,Fe-Cr,Fe63Mo37,Fe3C等;随着热处理温度的升高,涂层的自腐蚀电流密度先减小后增大,经300℃热处理后,自腐蚀电流密度最小,涂层的耐电化学腐蚀性能最好;经过热处理后,涂层在NaCl溶液中浸泡31d后的单位面积质量损失减小,且热处理温度越高,单位面积质量损失越小,涂层的耐均匀腐蚀性能提高。     

基于临界钙矾石膨胀破坏的磷石膏基复合胶凝材料的配料计算研究

为制备大掺量磷石膏基复合胶凝材料,在确定主要水化产物类型的基础上,通过计算临界钙矾石膨胀破坏的边界条件,确定各组分最佳掺量范围,研究其对复合胶凝材料力学性能、干缩性能的影响,并通过X射线衍射（XRD）、扫描电镜（SEM）等测试方法研究水化产物的组成及发展规律。研究结果表明：通过理论配料计算,矿粉掺量为50%（质量分数）时,最大磷石膏掺量为26.3%（质量分数）,最小熟料掺量为23.6%（质量分数）。最佳配比组28 d胶砂抗压强度为45.2 MPa,线膨胀率小于0.04%;对比组28 d抗压强度仅有36.4 MPa,线膨胀率远大于0.04%。XRD、SEM表征结果表明,磷石膏基复合胶凝材料的水化产物主要是钙矾石（AFt）和水化硅酸钙（C-S-H）凝胶,氢氧化钙几乎反应完全;对比组钙矾石生成量远大于最佳配料组,微观结构存在大量裂缝。这说明理论配料计算可以有效用于磷石膏基复合胶凝材料的配比优化。

On processing of Ni-WC based functionally graded composite clads through microwave heating

Present study focuses on the development of four layered functionally graded clads (FGC) of Ni-WC based composite material on AISI 304 substrate through microwave heating route. Experimental trials were conducted inside a microwave applicator of domestic type at frequency range of 2.45?GHz. The optimal exposure time of 900?W microwave power was varied with compositional gradient and it was from 300 to 360?s. The mechanism of FGC formation through microwave heating was explained and developed FGC was subjected to mechanical and microstructure characterizations. The results of micro-structural analysis revealed that the FGC of ～1.8?mm thickness was produced and was free from any type of interfacial cracks and visible porosity. It was observed that WC particles were randomly dispersed in the nickel matrix. XRD study revealed the formation of inter-metallics, such as NiW₄, NiSi, and Cr₂₃C₆. Maximum value of microhardness was observed in the top FGC layer and was 880?±?30?HV.
