Ingredient Losses during Melting Binary Ni-Ti Shape Memory Alloys

Losses of the alloying elements during vacuum induction melting of the binary NiTi alloys were evaluated by visual observation and chemical analysis of the NiTi melted specimens and the scalp formed on the internal surface of the crucible. The results indicated that the major sources of the losses were (a) evaporation of the metals, (b) formation of the NiTi scalp and (c) the sprinkling drops splashed out of the melt* due to the exothermic reactions occurring between Ni and Ti to form the NiTi parent phase. Quantitative evaluations were made for the metallic losses by holding the molten alloy for 0.5, 3, 5, 10 and 15 min at around 100癈above the melting point inside the crucible. Chemical analysis showed that there existed an optimum holding time of 3 min during which the alloying elements were only dropped to a predictable limit. Microstructure, chemical composition, shape memory and mechanical properties of the cast metal ingots were determined to indicate the appropriate achievements with the specified 3 min optimum holding time.     

Investigation of Subboundaries Evolution in Superplastically Deformed NiAl by Positron Lifetime

In order to study the subboundaries evolution in superplastically deformed NiAl,the positron lifetime change during superplastic deformation process was measured.It is shown that the superplastic deformation of NiAl has not influence on its τ2,the newly recrystallized grain boundaries formed during entire superplastic deformation process belong to the calegory of subboundaries and have not contribution to the superplastic strain.     

High strain rate superplasticity in a nano-structured Al–Mg/SiCP composite severely deformed by equal channel angular extrusion

High strain rate superplastic deformation potential of an Al–4.5%Mg matrix composite reinforced with 10% SiC particles of 3 μm nominal size was investigated. The material was manufactured using powder metallurgical route and mechanical alloying which was then processed by equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE). The composite showed a high resistance to static recrystallization. The manufacturing operations atomized SiC particles to nanoscale particles and the severe plastic deformation process resulted in a dynamically recrystallized microstructure with oxide dispersoids distributed homogeneously throughout the matrix. These particles stabilized the ultra-fine grained microstructure during superplastic (SP) deformation. Testing under optimum conditions at constant strain rates led to tensile elongations >360%, but it could be further increased by control of the strain rate path. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) studies showed that the low angle boundary sub-grain structure obtained on heating to the SP deformation temperature developed on straining into a microstructure containing high angle boundaries capable of sustaining grain boundary sliding.     

Low-temperature superplasticity of β-stabilized Ti-43Al-9V-Y alloy sheet with bimodal γ-grain-size distribution

The superplasticity of Ti-43Al-9V-0.2Y alloy sheet hot-rolled at 1100 ℃ was systematically investigated in the temperature range of 750-900 ℃ under an initial strain rate of 10-4 s-1.A bimodal γ grain-distribution microstructure of TiA1 alloy sheet,with abundant nano-scale or sub-micron γ laths embed-ded inside β matrix,exhibits an impressive superplastic behaviour.This inhomogeneous microstructure shows low-temperature superplasticity with a strain-rate sensitivity exponent of m =0.27 at 800 ℃,which is the lowest temperature of superplastic deformation for TiAl alloys attained so far.The maximum elongation reaches ～360％ at 900 ℃ with an initial strain rate of 2.0 × 10-4 s-1.To elucidate the softening mechanism of the disordered β phase during superplastic deformation,the changes of phase composi-tion were investigated up to 1000 ℃ using in situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD) in this study.The results indicate that β phase does not undergo the transformation from an ordered L20 structure to a disordered A2 structure and cannot coordinate superplastic deformation as a lubricant.Based on the microstructural evolution and occurrence of both y and β dynamic recrystallization (DR) after tensile tests as characterized with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD),the superplastic deformation mecha-nism can be explained by the combination of DR and grain boundary slipping (GBS).In the early stage of superplastic deformation,DR is an important coordination mechanism as associated with the reduced cavitation and dislocation density with increasing tensile temperature.Sufficient DR can relieve stress concentration arising from dislocation piling-up at grain boundaries through the fragmentation from the original coarse structures into the fine equiaxed ones due to recrystallization,which further effectively suppresses apparent grain growth during superplastic deformation.At the late stage of superplastic de-formation,these equiaxed grains make GBS prevalent,which can effectively avoid intergranular cracking and is conducive to the further improvement in elongation.This study advances the understanding of the superplastic deformation mechanism of intermetallic TiAl alloy.

热挤压态SiCP-LY12复合材料的超塑性变形

未经任何热处理的热挤压态SiC_P-LY12复合材料在基体固相点附近获得超塑性变形,在温度495～510C、应变速率2×10-4s-1时,终断延伸率大于150%。对试验数据的分析表明,在前述变形参数范围内,复合材料的变形机制发生了变化,使终断延伸率显著升高,但复合材料超塑性变形过程的应变速率敏感性指数(m)在同一温度下的m值随应变速率降低而逐渐增大,其最高值并未对应于最大延伸率;同时,应力-应变曲线在通常的动态再结晶阶段后出现一个独特的应变硬化阶段,直至最终断裂。微结构观察发现,变形初期复合材料即发生动态再结晶,据此推测,前述异常硬化阶段可能与再结晶组织的长大有关。另一方面,SiC_P-Al界面在变形过程中严重弱化,成为裂纹优先扩展的路径,不利于获得高的延伸率。     

Cavitation during diffusion creep of a magnesium alloy

Cavities associated with grain-boundary triple edges have been found in a Mg-0.55 Zr alloy after diffusion creep and the angular distribution of cavitated boundaries measured; cavities occur predominantly on boundaries normal to the stress axis and are rounded in form. Nucleation of cavities can, therefore, be associated with grain-boundary sliding and their growth with diffusion. It is suggested that similar cavities found in some alloys after superplastic deformation may also result from significant diffusion creep but this is not typical of all superplastic deformation.

Influence of fine grained structure and superplastic deformation on the strength of aluminium alloys

The influences of fine grained (FG) structure and superplastic deformation on the mechanical properties under quasistatic, impact and cycling loading conditions have been established for the aluminium alloys 1560 (Al-Mg-Mn), 1141 (Al-Cu-Mg-Ni-Fe) and 1960 (Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr). FG materials compared with recrystallized coarse grained (CG) ones improve tensile strength and ductility and high-cycle fatigue endurance, but reduce static and impact toughnesses. The effect of grain refinement on crack resistance is directly manifested in the difficulty of crack initiation and in facilitating its growth. Blanks with FG structure, after superplastic processing, are recommended instead of CG recrystallized ones for the production of principal parts whose service life is limited by first crack appearance. In the presence of cracks, higher strength can be obtained by the use of blanks made of CG commercial semifinished products and those manufactured by traditional methods of hot die forging.

高Ca/Al比的Mg-Al-Ca合金的超塑性

针对3种高Ca/Al比的Mg-Al-Ca合金(Mg-3.7Al-3.8Ca,Mg-4.4Al-4.5Ca和Mg-4.9Al-5.0Ca)的超塑性行为展开研究,研究结果表明,铸态镁合金具有二次相Al2Ca分布于晶界的枝晶结构。经挤压后,合金的晶粒被细化,二次相也被细化为更小的粒子。这些合金在400℃时表现出很高的伸长率,Mg-4.9Al-5.0Ca在400℃时3.6×10-4 s-1应变速率下获得最大伸长率572%。超塑性流变的变形机制为晶格扩散(DL)控制的晶界滑移(GBS)。对于挤压态Mg-4.9Al-5.0Ca合金,大部分高温稳定相Al2Ca粒子尺寸为80nm,对晶粒长大的抑制作用强烈,在晶界滑移时协调变形,因此在3种合金中Mg-4.9Al-5.0Ca具有最好的超塑性。     

均匀化对EK31镁合金组织与腐蚀性能的影响

为了研究均匀化热处理对含有稀土元素Er的EK31镁合金组织及其耐蚀性能的影响,本文利用光学显微镜(OM),扫描电镜(SEM),X射线衍射仪(XRD)和化学工作站研究了铸态EK31镁合金在均匀化温度为300,400和500℃,保温时间由0.5 h至8 h热处理后的组织结构和在3.5 wt.%的Na Cl水溶液中的腐蚀行为.结果表明,EK31镁合金主要由基体α-Mg晶粒和β-Zr核相组成.经过300℃×6 h均匀化处理后,合金基体α-Mg中的β-Zr核相溶解扩散,在3.5%Na Cl水溶液中浸泡96 h后的腐蚀速率达到最低,为4.3×10-3mg/(cm2·h);当均匀化温度为400和500℃时,保温时间超过6 h后,在晶界附近富集的稀土元素Er生成Mg24Er5相,使该合金的腐蚀速率上升到1.1×10-2mg/(cm2·h).然而,与其它镁合金相比较,EK31镁合金具有优异的耐蚀性能,其原因为稀土元素Er在晶界附近形成富Er区以及Mg24Er5相的阻碍作用.
