将不同厚度的AZ31B镁合金挤压坯经多道次和单道次两种轧制工艺制备成厚度约为1 mm的薄板.XRD结果表明,轧板出现了明显（0001）面织构.挤压和轧制过程中的大变形促使了再结晶的发生,进而形成了细小且均匀的显微组织.多道次轧制的最薄轧板中获得了尺寸为5-10 μm的等轴晶.细小的再结晶晶粒使材料的强度和塑性得到了改善.多道次轧板的拉伸强度达到了292MPa,其伸长率为单道次轧制的两倍.     

熔体温度对AZ31B镁合金铸态组织及力学性能的影响(英文)

采用自制的电阻炉研究熔体温度对AZ31B镁合金凝固组织与拉伸性能的影响。结果表明:在温度低于850℃水冷时,金属型AZ31B镁合金铸锭等轴枝晶的尺寸随着熔体温度的升高呈直线下降,超过850℃后变化不大。组织中第二相呈现出先细化后粗化的变化规律。AZ31B镁合金试样的抗拉强度、伸长率和屈服强度随着熔体温度的提高而先快速增大后略有减小,熔体温度为850℃时试样的抗拉强度达到260MPa,屈服强度达到75.4MPa,伸长率达到27.57%,比熔体温度为750℃时的分别提高了15%、13%和61%。DSC分析表明,升高熔体温度使凝固开始点温度降低,临界晶核半径减小,从而增加了熔体中的过冷度,提高了熔体中非均匀形核率,是镁合金晶粒细化和拉伸性能提高的主要原因。     

Effects of laser shock processing on stress corrosion cracking susceptibility of AZ31B magnesium alloy

Laser shock processing (LSP) is a new technique for strengthening metals. The effects of LSP on the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) susceptibility of AZ31B magnesium (Mg) alloy were investigated. Water-immersed specimens of AZ31B magnesium alloy were shocked by Q-switched Nd: glass laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm. A fine-grained structure with an average sub-grain size of 5.8 μm was obtained after four laser impacts. Residual stress distribution as a function of depth was assessed by using X-ray diffraction technology. It was observed that with increasing the number of laser impacts, the compressive residual stress near the surface increased. The depth of the compressive residual stress induced by LSP exceeded 0.8 mm from the surface. SCC test in 1 wt.% NaOH solution showed that LSP retarded the SCC initiation and growth in AZ31B Mg alloy.

针对镁合金表面耐磨性和耐蚀性差的问题,利用横流CO2激光器在AZ31B镁合金表面激光熔覆Cu-Ni合金层,并利用光学显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)和能谱分析仪(EDS)分析熔覆层与基体的结合界面特征以及显微组织和成分分布情况,测试合金层的显微硬度和耐蚀性。结果表明:合金层与基体结合良好,缺陷较少,但局部存在不均匀的Cu-Ni富集区,且在其边缘区域的枝晶间均匀分布着1~1.5μm的十字状Laves相;合金层的硬度分布比较均匀,约为75HV0.05,明显高于基体的显微硬度45HV0.05;Cu-Ni合金层比AZ31B镁合金基体的腐蚀电位正移317mV,腐蚀电流降低78mA/cm2,耐蚀性也得到较大改善。     

温度对AZ31B镁合金板材电磁成形的影响

镁合金室温塑性较差,温热条件下则表现出良好的塑性。该文对AZ31B镁合金板料匀压力线圈温热电磁胀形过程进行分析,研究温度对镁合金板料电磁胀形高度的影响。结果表明,电流的热效应影响板料的变形抗力。当放电电压较低时,电流的热效应对材料的变形抗力影响不大,在室温至150℃范围内,胀形高度随温度上升而下降;随着放电电压升高,电流的热效应不断增大,热效应对材料变形抗力的影响也逐渐加强,在室温至150℃范围内,胀形高度随温度升高而下降的趋势逐渐变缓;当放电电压增加到一定值时,电流热效应使被加工板料的温升足够大,其应力应变曲线发生显著改变,胀形高度随温度变化关系由原来的单调下降转变为单调上升。在能量相同的情况下,当集肤深度超过板厚时,在一定温度范围内,厚度小的板料胀形高度小于厚度大的板料的胀形高度。     

Study on ac-PMIG welding of AZ31B magnesium alloy

Abstract

Welding of AZ31B magnesium alloy is carried out using alternating current pulsed metal inert gas (ac-PMIG) welding with 1·6 mm diameter of filler wire. Typical current waveform is used to make sure arc given an accurate energy input into filler wire. The arc characteristics, metal transfer forms, microstructure and mechanical property of ac-PMIG welding of AZ31B magnesium are investigated. The results show that a stable welding procedure and continuous joints can be obtained easily under a wide range of welding parameters. The most important factors for ac-PMIG welding are negative electrode (EN) ratio and pulse rework current, which give an accurate energy input into filler wire. The grain in fusion zone is much finer and more uniform, and grain size does not grow significantly in the heat affected zone compared with base metal. The average ultimate tensile strength of weld beads is 97·2% of base metal.

Effects of deformation parameters on microstructure and mechanical properties of magnesium alloy AZ31B

Plastic deformation and dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behaviors of magnesium alloy AZ31B during thermal compression and extrusion processes were studied.In addition, effects of deformation temperature and rates on the microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated.The results show that the DRX grains nucleate initially at the primary grain boundaries and the twin boundaries, and the twinning plays an important role in the grain refinement.The DRX grain size depends on the deformation temperature and strain rate The average grain size is only 1 μm when the strain rate is 5 s-1 and temperature is 250 ℃.It is also found that the DRX grain can grow up quickly at the elevated temperature.The microstructure of extruded rods was consisted of tiny equal-axis DRX grains and some elongated grains.The rods extruded slowly have tiny grains and exhibit good mechanical properties.     

Fatigue properties of rolled AZ31B magnesium alloy plate

Fatigue strength, crack initiation and propagation behavior of rolled AZ31B magnesium alloy plate were investigated. Axial tension-compression fatigue tests were carried out with cylindrical smooth specimens. Two types of specimens were machined with the loading axis parallel (L-specimen) and perpendicular (T-specimen) to rolling direction. Monotonic compressive 0.2% proof stress, tensile strength and tensile elongation were similar for both specimens. On the other hand, monotonic tensile 0.2% proof stress of the L-specimen was slightly higher than that of the T-specimen. Moreover, monotonic compressive 0.2% proof stresses were lower than tensile ones for both specimens. The fatigue strengths of 107 cycles of the L- and T-specimens were 95 and 85 MPa, respectively. Compared with the monotonic compressive 0.2% proof stresses, the fatigue strengths were higher for both specimens. In other words, the fatigue crack did not initiate and propagate even though deformation twins were formed in compressive stress under the cyclic tension-compression loading. The fatigue crack initiated at early stage of the fatigue life in low cycle regime regardless of specimen direction. The crack growth rate of the L-specimen was slightly lower than of the T-specimen. Consequently, the fatigue lives of the L-specimen were longer than those of the T-specimen in low cycle regime.     

Temperature evolution and fatigue life evaluation of AZ31B magnesium alloy based on infrared thermography

The surface temperature of extruded AZ31B alloy plate was measured by infrared thermograph in air during tension and high-cycle fatigue tests. The mechanism of heat production was discussed and the value of critical fatigue damage temperature was calculated according to the P—ΔT curve. Results show that the variation trend of temperature is different between tension and fatigue tests. The temperature evolution in tension test consists of four stages: linear decrease, reverse linear increase, abrupt increase, and final drop. The initial decrease of temperature is caused by thermal elastic effect, which is corresponding to the elastic deformation in tension progress. When cyclic loading is above the fatigue limit, the temperature evolution mainly undergoes five stages: initial increase, steep reduction, steady state, abrupt increase, and final drop. The peak temperature in fatigue test is caused by strain hardening that can be used to evaluate the fatigue life of magnesium alloy. The critical temperature variation that causes the fatigue failure is 3.63 K. When ΔT≤3.63 K, the material is safe under cyclic loading. When ΔT>3.63 K, the fatigue life is determined by cycle index and peak temperature.

Friction stir welding of magnesium alloy AZ31B to aluminium alloy 5083

Abstract

A preliminary investigation has been carried out into the application of friction stir welding for joining a magnesium alloy to an aluminium alloy. The work has shown that liquation during the welding process can lead to the formation of a brittle intermetallic at the joint interface. This intermetallic has a microstructure composed of a divorced lamellar eutectic containing Al₁₂Mg₁₇ and magnesium. The formation of this microstructure and its influence on mechanical properties are discussed in terms of solidification theory.
