Microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-5Li-1Al sheets prepared by accumulative roll bonding

Ultrafine-grain and high-strength Mg-5Li-1Al sheets were prepared by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process. Evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties of ARB-processed Mg-5Li-1Al sheets was investigated.Results show that, during ARB process, the evolution of deformation mechanism of t Mg-5Li-1Al alloy is as follows: twinning deformation, shear deformation, forming macro shear zone, and finally dynamic recrystallization (DRX). The grain refining mechanism changes from twin DRX to rotation DRX. With the increase in ARB cycles, strength of the Mg-5Li-1Al sheets is enhanced, whilst elongation varies slightly. With the increase in rolling cycles, anisotropy of mechanical properties decreases. It is conclusive that strain hardening and grain refinement dominate the strengthening mechanism of Mg-5Li-1Al alloy.     

Ti70合金板的组织与力学性能的各向异性

通过拉伸及低温冲击试验、光学显微镜、扫描电镜及X射线衍射仪,对Ti70合金板的组织与力学性能的各向异性进行了研究。结果表明,Ti70合金板热轧及退火后组织未出现明显差异,退火过程中主要以回复为主,但在高密度位错的剪切带上出现了一定数量的再结晶晶粒。退火态Ti70合金板横向屈服强度及低温冲击吸收能量都高于纵向,但抗拉强度低于纵向,表现出了明显的各向异性。退火后Ti70合金板形成了较强的{0002}基面织构,其晶面法向向RD方向(纵向)偏转±30°,向TD(横向)方向偏转±41°。由于基面织构更向RD方向集中,因此造成了Ti70合金板力学性能的各向异性。

双态组织高Nb-TiAl合金的缺口敏感性

通过对圆棒状缺口试样和无缺口光滑试样进行单向拉伸试验,研究了双态组织高Nb-TiAl合金的缺口敏感性。研究表明,缺口根半径R≥0. 5 mm的U型试样和缺口角度60°、R≥1 mm的V型试样的抗拉强度RmN都大于光滑试样的抗拉强度Rm,缺口敏感度NSR均大于1,合金对缺口不敏感。当缺口类型相同时,缺口敏感性随缺口根半径R的减小而增大; V型缺口敏感性大于U型缺口;对于V型缺口试样,当R=0. 5 mm时,其NSR在0. 98～1. 03之间,RmN在Rm附近波动,易出现缺口敏感。     

A dense and compact laser cladding layer with solid metallurgical bonding significantly improved corrosion resistance of Mg alloy for engineering applications

Although Mg alloy attracts great attention for engineering applications because of high specific strength and low density, low corrosion resistance limits its extensive use. In this study, Mg–Al–Zn–Mn alloy was treated via a laser cladding process to generate a dense and compact laser cladding layer with solid metallurgical bonding on the substrate for improving corrosion resistance, effectively hindering the corrosion pervasion into Mg alloy. The corrosion current density declined from 103 μA/cm² for Mg alloy to 13 μA/cm² for the laser cladding layer in NaCl aqueous solution. Moreover, the laser cladding layer was slightly corroded in comparison with Mg alloy in NaCl aqueous solution. Besides, the microhardness of the cladding layer reached a mean value of 170.5 HV, 3.1 times of Mg alloy (56.8 HV) due to the in situ formation of hardening intermetallic phases. Wear resistance of laser cladding layer was also obviously improved. These results demonstrated that the laser cladding layer obviously enhanced anticorrosion property of Mg alloy for engineering applications.     

Effects of isothermal treatment parameters on the microstructure of semisolid alloys

Cold-rolled 6061 aluminium alloys are used to prepare semisolid billets by recrystallisation and partial melting. The effects of isothermal treatment parameters on the microstructures were investigated. The results indicated that the high isothermal holding temperature increases the experimental liquid fraction, average grain size and shape factor. A long isothermal holding time also increases the experimental liquid fraction and improves the spheroidisation degree of solid grains, but the average grain size also increases. Moreover, when the isothermal holding time at high temperature is increased, the size of intragranular liquid droplets increases, but their quantity decreases. The optimal isothermal holding temperature and time during semisolid isothermal treatment were 635°C and 5?–?10?min, respectively.     

自保护药芯焊丝明弧堆焊Fe-Cr-C-B-W合金的组织及性能

采用自保护药芯焊丝明弧堆焊技术制备五组不同钨含量的Fe-Cr-C-B-W合金. 借助金相显微镜、扫描电子显微镜、X射线衍射仪、洛氏硬度计和磨损试验机分析堆焊合金的组织及性能. 结果表明，合金的显微组织由马氏体、残余奥氏体、M₇(C,B)₃，M₃(C,B)，Fe₃W₃C和WC组成. 大部分钨元素被迁移到晶界生成了比WC稳定性更好的Fe₃W₃C缺碳复合相，堆焊层中没有典型的初生WC硬质相颗粒生成. 随着钨添加量的增多，共晶硬质相M₇(C,B)₃，M₃(C,B)和Fe₃W₃C随之增多，间距减小，呈连续网状均匀分布. 当钨的添加量为12%时，堆焊层的耐磨性达到最佳.     

高Cu含量Al-Cu-Li-Sc合金中W(Al8Cu4Sc)相的形成机制

采用光学显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)、电子探针显微分析(EPMA)、X射线衍射(XRD)以及扫描透射电镜(STEM),研究了一种高Cu含量Al-2.35Cu-4.6Li-0.12Sc(at%)合金在均匀化热处理过程中微观组织演变以及W(Al₈Cu₄Sc)相的形成机制。结果表明:铸态时,合金中的主要凝固相为T_B(Al₇Cu₄Li)相,Sc主要以过饱和固溶体的形式存在于基体中;均匀化后,T_B相完全溶解,基体中的Cu含量增加,Sc含量减少,稳定的W相形成。分析表明,由于T_B相与基体界面是非共格的,W相优先在此界面形核将有利于其形核能的降低。W相形核后通过不断消耗其附着的T_B相上的Cu原子和Al基体中的过饱和Sc原子而逐渐长大,直至形成尺寸1 μm左右的稳定粒子。
