以Cu-0.5Cr和Cu-0.5Cr-0.1Ti-0.1Ag合金为实验材料,研究同时添加Ti和Ag元素对Cu-Cr系合金微观组织及力/电性能的影响。结果表明,Cu-0.5Cr和Cu-0.5Cr-0.1Ti-0.1Ag两种合金在450 ℃×1 h退火时达到峰时效状态,且Ti和Ag元素的加入显著提高了Cu-Cr系合金的硬度,但导电性能有所降低。同时研究了两种合金的高温抗软化行为,发现软化过程伴随着晶粒回复和再结晶,Ti和Ag元素的添加提高了Cu-Cr系合金的再结晶活化能,延缓了软化过程中合金的再结晶过程,使得Cu-0.5Cr-0.1Ti-0.1Ag合金的抗软化温度比Cu-0.5Cr合金提高约25 °C。

Mechanical Properties and Nanocrystallization Behavior of Al-Ni-La Alloys

Rapidly solidified Al₈₉Ni₆La₅ ribbons were obtained by induction melting and ejecting the melt onto a rotating Cu wheel in an Ar atmosphere. The ribbons were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), microindentation, and nanoindentation techniques. The XRD and TEM studies revealed that the ribbon was fully amorphous; however, DSC did not show any glass transition. The alloy undergoes two stages of crystallization. The growth of fcc-Al is responsible for the first stage, and precipitation of Al₃Ni and Al₁₁La₃ is responsible for the second stage of crystallization. Microhardness of ribbons in the as-melt-spun, partially, and fully devitrified conditions was examined and subsequently correlated with evolved microstructure. Significant improvement in hardness was observed, with the progress of primary nanocrystallization, due to the effective barrier to shear band by a hard La-rich shell around the fcc-Al nanocrystals and enrichment of the remaining amorphous matrix by the solute elements. The pile up of materials in the form of semicircular shear bands was observed around all the indentations. During nanoindentation, it was observed that hardness and modulus values were initially increased and then decreased. The reasons for such observation were also discussed.

Enhanced Mechanical Properties of As-Forged Co-Cr-Mo-N Alloys with Ultrafine-Grained Structures

The ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructures of Ni-free Co-29Cr-6Mo (mass pct) alloys, which are designed for biomedical applications, have been successively fabricated by the conventional hot-forging process. The grain size decreased with increasing hot-forging reduction, and the equiaxed UFG structures with a mean grain size less than 1 ??m were obtained in 83?pct (true strain of 1.8) hot-forged specimens. Significant grain refinement drastically enhanced tensile strength; dislocations residual in the grains also play a crucial role for strengthening of the UFG-structured specimen. The elongation decreased with the reduction in grain size. However, we revealed that the addition of nitrogen, which is one of the nontoxic ?? phase (face-centered cubic [fcc] structure) stabilizer, improves the ductility of the UFG alloys remarkably with maintaining high strength. It was deduced that the enhanced ductility in the UFG material by N doping was related to constituent phase and strain-induced martensitic transformation behavior: the addition of nitrogen eliminated athermal ?? martensite detrimental to tensile elongation, and strain-induced martensitic transformation effectively increased work-hardening rate to avoid the plastic instability at the early stage of deformation. The present method characterized by ultragrain refinement in conjunction with nitrogen addition to stabilize the ?? phase can provide a potent strategy to obtain superior combination of high strength and adequate ductility.     

Solidification Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Cast Magnesium-Aluminum-Tin Alloys

The solidification microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-Al-Sn alloys have been investigated using computational thermodynamics and experiments. The as-cast microstructure of Mg-Al-Sn alloys consists of α-Mg, Mg₁₇Al₁₂, and Mg₂Sn phases. The amount of Mg₁₇Al₁₂ and Mg₂Sn phases formed increases with increasing Al and Sn content and shows good agreement between the experimental results and the Scheil solidification calculations. Generally, the yield strength of as-cast alloys increases with Al and Sn content, whereas the ductility decreases. This study has confirmed an early development of Mg-7Al-2Sn alloy for structural applications and has led to a promising new Mg-7Al-5Sn alloy with significantly improved strength and ductility comparable with commercial AZ91 alloy.

Three-Dimensional Network Structure and Mechanical Properties of Al-Cu-Ni-Fe Cast Alloys with Gd Micro-addition

High-temperature tensile testing and X-ray microscope (XRM) characterization were performed to assess the effects of the micro-addition of Gd and the three-dimensional (3-D) network structure on the improvement of Al-6Cu-3.5Ni-0.8Fe alloy under as-cast conditions. Gd addition contributed to the modification of the microstructure, where a new thermally stable micro-sized Al₃CuGd phase was formed, and the refinement occurred in Al₃CuNi and Al₉FeNi. The tensile test results revealed that the alloy modified with 0.4 pct Gd exhibited optimal properties at 623 K (350 °C), with an ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation of 74.1 MPa, 61.2 MPa, and 15.5 pct, respectively. Fractographic analysis after the tensile tests indicated that at ambient temperature, brittle cleavage-type fracture of the precipitates and ductile fracture of the matrix were dominant, whereas the transformation from mixed fracture to fully ductile trans-crystalline fracture was detected at elevated temperatures. According to the CT characterization, there was no significant difference in the curvature or interconnectivity of the 3-D network structure formed by the aluminides between before and after the tensile test at 623 K (350 °C). It is believed that the 3-D continuous network structure of aluminides, equipped with excellent heat resistance, plays a pivotal role in the high-temperature performance of the studied alloys. This work provides a new and promising idea for solving the current heat resistance problems of cast Al alloys.

     

Mechanical Properties and Crystallization Behaviors of Microstructured Co-Fe-P Amorphous Alloys

Microstructure with microsized amorphous grains is found in thick-film Co-Fe-P amorphous alloys prepared by electrodeposition. The amorphous alloys exhibit different structure, mechanical properties, and crystallization behaviors compared with those of homogeneous amorphous alloys, e.g., bulk metallic glasses. The mechanical properties of these microstructured amorphous alloys are characterized by tensile tests, dynamic mechanical analysis, and micro- and nanoindentations. Using a differential scanning calorimeter, the activation energy of the crystallization process of the microstructured amorphous alloy is measured and is found to depend on its microstructure.
