Structure and mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy billets by different hot-top semi-continuous casting technology

AZ31 alloy billets of 200 mm in diameter were produced by three different processes of conventional direct chill(DC) casting,low-frequency electromagnetic casting(LFEC) and low-frequency electromagnetic vibration casting(LFEVC),respectively.The effect of LFEC and LFEVC on the microstructures,macrosegregation and mechanical properties of AZ31 alloy billets was investigated.In conventional DC casting,the AZ31 alloy billets exhibited coarse grains(about 370 μm) and severe segregation of Al and Zn.In the presence of a solo low-frequency alternating magnetic field or a low-frequency electromagnetic vibration field applied during DC casting of φ200 mm AZ31 billets,grains in the AZ31 alloy billets were effectively refined(about 210 μm) and the macrosegregation of Al and Zn in the billets was greatly decreased.Furthermore,the tensile strength,fracture elongation and hardness of the as-cast AZ31 alloy billets were improved by the processes of LFEC and LFEVC relative to that cast by the process of conventional DC casting.

Effect of Heat Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of ZM6 Alloy Prepared by Solid Recycling Process

ZM6 magnesium alloy was prepared by solid recycling process. Effect of heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy was investigated. Cold pressing was employed to prepare extrusion billets of ZM6 chips, then the billets were hot extruded at 773 K with an extrusion ratio of 25:1. During hot extrusion, the grains refined and the particles were broken. The peak-aging materials showed fine plate-shaped β′ precipitates. The ultimate tensile strength and elongation to failure of as-extruded rods was 232.2 MPa and 23%, respectively. After T5 and T6 heat-treatment, obvious improvement of the tensile strength was obtained because of dispersive particles or fine precipitates. The morphology of the fracture surfaces was examined by employing scanning electron microscope.     

Effect of pressure on microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-Cu-based alloy prepared by squeeze casting

A new high-strength aluminum alloy with better fluidity than that of ZL205A was developed. The effect of applied pressure during squeeze casting on microstructures and properties of the alloy was studied. The results show that the fluidity of the alloy is 16% and 21% higher than that of ZL205A at the pouring temperature of 993 K and 1 013 K, respectively. Compared with permanent-mold casting, mechanical properties of the alloy prepared by squeeze casting are much higher. The tensile strength and elongation of the alloy are 520 MPa and 7.9% in squeeze casting under an applied pressure of 75 MPa, followed by solution treatment at 763 K for 1 h and at 773 K for 8 h, quenching in water at normal temperature and aging at 463 K for 5 h. The improvement of mechanical properties is attributed to the remarkable decreasing of the secondary dendrite arm spacing(SDAS) and eliminating of micro-porosity in the alloy caused by applied pressure.

Effect of heat treatment on microstructure and properties of semi-solid squeeze casting AZ91D

Semi-solid AZ91D magnesium alloy billets were prepared by near-liquidus heat holding. Semi-solid squeeze casting was conducted at 575, 585 and 595 ℃, respectively, with 1 mm·s~(-1) squeeze speed. The semisolid squeeze casting AZ91D samples were heat treated by T4(solution at 415 ℃ for 24 h) and T6(solution at 415 ℃ for 24 h + 220 ℃ for 8 h) processes, respectively. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy in different states were investigated by means of OM, SEM and tensile testing machine. The results show that compared to as-cast alloy, the grain size of the semi-solid squeezed AZ91D decreased significantly, and with the increase of semi-solid squeeze temperature, the grain size of AZ91D increased. The grains of the alloy were refined by T4 treatment, and further refined by T6 treatment. T6 treatment greatly improved the tensile strength, elongation, and hardness, but did not significantly improve yield strength. After 575 ℃ squeeze casting and T6 treatment, the ultimate tensile strength(UTS) reached 285 MPa, the elongation reached 13.36%, and the hardness also reached the maximum(106.8 HV), but the yield strength(YS) was only 180 MPa. During the process of semi-solid squeeze casting and heat treatment, the matrix grain was refined and a large number of precipitated and secondary precipitated phases of Mg_(17)Al_(12) appeared. Both the average size of matrix grain and secondary precipitated phase decreased, while the volume fraction of secondary precipitated phase increased. All these resulted in high tensile strength, elongation and hardness.     

Effect of rare earth on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Cu-30Ni alloy

Cu-30Ni-xRE (x = 0–0.213) alloys were prepared by a metal mould casting method. The effect of RE on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloys was investigated using optical microscope, scanning electronic microscope with energy-dispersive spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, and mechanical test. The results show that RE has obvious effect on refining dendrite structure and grain size, as well as on purifying the melting of Cu-30Ni alloy. With the increase of RE content, the ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation increase at first and then decrease after adding RE more than 0.095 wt.%. Cu-30Ni-0.095RE alloy possesses preferable mechanical properties, i.e., the ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation are 308 MPa, 125 MPa, and 51.2%, respectively. The microstructure and mechanical properties are worsened with increasing RE content more than 0.095 wt.%. The improvement of mechanical properties of Cu-30Ni-0.095RE alloy is attributed to RE refining microstructure and purifying the matrix.

Microstructure and Properties of Micro-Alloyed Mg-2.0Nd-0.2Sr by Heat Treatment and Extrusion

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have broad application prospects in the fields such as biomedical materials and automobile manufacturing. A micro-alloyed Mg-2.0Nd-0.2Sr (wt.%) magnesium alloy is designed and obtained through semicontinuous casting. The evolution of microstructures and tensile properties are investigated with different heat treatments and extrusion treatments. The grain sizes decrease significantly after extrusion, thus changing the fracture mode during the tensile testing process. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS), yield strength (YS) and elongation (EL) of the properly processed extrusion alloy (referred to as MNS-E2) reach to 247 MPa, 228 MPa and 24%, respectively. The dramatical improvement of mechanical properties results from the refined grains and interactions between dislocations and precipitates. Some nanoparticle bands blocking the slippage and movement of dislocations are also found in the MNS-E2 alloy. The above causes combined result in an integrated effect of grain boundary strengthening, dislocation strengthening, precipitation strengthening and nanoparticle band strengthening. The contribution of strengthening mechanisms of MNS-E2 alloy consists of grain boundary with around 96 MPa, dislocations with around 3.4 MPa, precipitation strengthening with around 45 MPa and the nanoparticle band with around 18 MPa, respectively.
