Study on the effects of the compression ratio and mushy zone heating on the thixotropic microstructure of AA 7075 aluminum alloy via SIMA process

The effects of compression ratios on the microstructure evolution of semisolid Al7075 alloy produced by the strain induced melt activation (SIMA) process were investigated. The samples were cold deformed by compression into the different heights up to 40% reduction. The isothermal holding treatments within mushy zone of the alloy were carried out at 610, 620 and 625 °C for predetermined time intervals.The results revealed that the average grain size gradually reduced with the increase in the compressive ratio. While the compressive ratio surpassed 30%, the descending trend above was not as evident as that of below 30% reduction. The optimum condition presenting the minimum grain size and the maximum shape factor with the highest uniformity is discussed. During the subsequent mushy zone heating, the recrystallization was induced in the deformed samples by the increasingly accumulated strain energy.     

An investigation on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of A380 aluminum alloy during SIMA process

Microstructural evolution and tensile properties of thixoformed near net shape parts of A380 aluminum alloy have been studied. The effect of plastic deformation and holding time in the appropriate semi-solid temperature has been investigated in the strain-induced melt activating process (SIMA). The results of image analysis showed that by increasing the deformation value from 5% to 11%, the recrystallized α-Al grains gradually refined as a result of the increasing the nucleation rate. At the value of 11% plastic deformation a dominant globular structure of α-Al grains was obtained. However, further increasing in the plastic deformation (14%) reduced considerably the shape factor. The equivalent diameter and the shape factor of the globular grains were 70.3 μm and 79%, respectively, after about 11% of plastic deformation. Holding time of the specimens at the semi-solid temperature has been studied from zero to 30 min. It was found that the holding time of 25 min is the best to prevent grain growth. The mechanical properties of thixoformed alloys were also investigated. The results showed that the yield, tensile strength and elongation have been increased considerably using thixoforming, compared with the as-cast condition.

变形程度对7A04合金半固态触变组织的影响

获得具有触变特性的均匀的、近球形的显微组织是半固态触变成形工艺的基础和关键。以挤压态7A04合金SIMA法生成触变组织为例．研究变形程度对其半固态触变组织的影响。结果表明：在加热前的变形程度对显微组织的影响很大，随着变形程度的增加，晶粒尺寸减小，晶粒形状越趋于球形；当变形程度超过0．3时，晶粒尺寸及其球形化速度逐渐减慢并趋于稳定值。此外，经过冷变形后，晶粒内及晶粒间的偏析减小，晶界易被低熔点液相浸润．更易获得均匀的、近球形的触变组织。
