稀土Y对AZ80镁合金组织及耐蚀性能的影响

通过静态失重法、电化学测试法、扫描电子显微镜、X射线衍射等测试手段对添加不同含量稀土元素Y的AZ80镁合金的微观组织和腐蚀性能进行了研究。结果表明:稀土Y的加入使实验合金中β-Mg17Al12相的数量明显减少,并且由连续网状分布变为断续状、均匀分布。同时,Y与合金中Al结合形成块状或颗粒状的稀土相Al2Y。本实验条件下,添加0.5%Y合金的耐腐蚀性能最佳,腐蚀速率为0.2585 mg.cm-2.d-1,仅为原始合金腐蚀速率的48.07%,此外加入适量Y可提高合金的平衡电位和腐蚀电位,降低腐蚀电流密度,提高了合金的耐蚀性能。     

添加稀土Er于熔剂中对铸态AZ91镁合金组织与性能的影响

研究了熔炼时在熔剂(42%MnCl2 53%LiCl 5?F2,质量分数,%)中添加稀土Er对铸态AZ91镁合金显微组织、力学性能、断口形貌以及腐蚀行为的影响。结果表明:在熔剂中添加稀土Er能够去除镁合金熔炼过程中产生的熔剂夹杂,净化镁合金熔体,提高铸态AZ91镁合金的拉伸性能和耐腐蚀性能;当熔剂中添加10%的稀土Er时,镁合金的抗拉强度σb和伸长率δ分别从156MPa和1.8%上升到最大值220MPa和4.1%;同时,镁合金在5%NaCl水溶液中的腐蚀速率从1.20mg/(cm2.d)下降到最小值0.15mg/(cm2.d);然而,随着稀土Er在熔剂中添加量的进一步提高,合金中开始有φ-(Al7ErMn5)和τ-(Al66.7Mg23.3Er10)等含有稀土Er的相生成,消耗了合金中的Al和Mn元素,改变了β-(Mg17Al12)相的形态;而且沿枝晶界附近分布的粗大φ-(Al7ErMn5)相降低了枝晶之间的结合力,使得合金的σb和δ下降;同时,部分网状的β-(Mg17Al12)相断裂,呈离散的块状,导致合金的腐蚀速率增加;熔剂中添加稀土Er不改变镁合金的断裂机理,断裂机制仍为准解理断裂。     

稀土对AZ91镁合金干湿交替循环腐蚀行为的影响

镧铈(La,Ce)混合稀土的添加改变了AZ91镁合金微观组织和元素分布。La元素与Ce元素在AZ91镁合金中以不同的形式存在,一部分固溶在镁合金基体中,一部分参与生成了针状的Al4(La,Ce)相和粒状的Al_(10)Ce_2Mn_7相。稀土添加后AZ91镁合金中β相的体积分数有所降低,Al元素分布由晶界向晶内迁移。对不同添加量的稀土镁合金在模拟融雪剂溶液中的干湿交替循环腐蚀行为的研究结果表明,La、Ce混合稀土的添加,可以增加镁合金表面膜的致密度。虽然混合稀土降低了镁合金的自腐蚀电位,但腐蚀电流密度相比较于AZ91明显降低。SECM结果则表明,稀土添加可以减少镁合金表面微区的活性点数量。

Ca对镁合金组织、力学性能和腐蚀性能的影响

研究了Ca对AZ91D镁合金显微组织、力学性能和腐蚀性能的影响.当AZ91D中加人的Ca含量大于1.0%时,β相(Mg17Al12)减少,并且在晶界上形成了网状分布的Al2Ca相.拉伸测试表明,当加入Ca含量小于1%时,可以提高合金的常温抗拉强度和延伸率,继续增大Ca含量时合金的力学性能明显下降.当AZ91D中加入的Ca含量达到1.0%时,常温抗拉强度和延伸率较AZ91D分别提高了8.2%和29.3%,并且腐蚀速率下降为AZ91D的17.2%.其原因主要是由于形成了网状分布的Al2Ca相,使镁合金的自腐蚀电位升高,腐蚀电流密度降低,从而阻碍了镁合金的腐蚀.

The effects of rare earth（RE） elements Y and Nd （w（Y）/w（Nd）=3：2） with total content of 1%-4% on microstructures and elevated temperature mechanical properties of AZ81 magnesium alloy were investigated. The results show that, proper content of rare earth elements makes the microstructures of AZ81 magnesium alloy refine obviously and the quantity offl-MglTAll2 phases reduce, and Al2Y and Al2Nd form. After solid solution treatment, with increasing content of rare earth elements, the tensile strength and elongation of the alloys （at room temperature, 150 ℃ and 250 ℃） increase first, then decrease. When the content of rare earth elements is up to 2%, the values of tensile strength at room temperature and 150 ℃ are up to their maxima simultaneously, 282 MPa and 212 MPa, respectively. Meanwhile, the values of elongation at room temperature and at elevated temperature are also up to their maxima, 13% and 15%, respectively.

Effects of combined addition of Y and Ca on microstructure and mechanical properties of die casting AZ91 alloy

A series of die casting heat-resistant magnesium alloys based on Mg-Al system were developed for automotive application by adding Y and various amounts of Ca. The mechanical properties and microstructures of die casting AZ91 alloy with combined addition of Y and Ca were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, X-ray diffractometry and mechanical property test. The results show that the combined addition of Y and Ca can refine the as-die-cast microstructure, result in the formation of Al2Ca phase and Al2Y phase, and inhibit the precipitation of Mg17Al12 phase. The combined addition of Y and small amount of Ca has little influence on the ambient temperature tensile properties, but increasing the content of Ca can improve significantly the tensile strength at both ambient and elevated temperatures. It is found that for AZ91-1Y-xCa alloy, the hardness and the elevated temperature tensile strength increase, while the elongation decreases with increasing the addition of Ca. The mechanism of mechanical properties improvement caused by the combined addition of Y and Ca was also discussed.

Study on microstructure and properties of laser surface melted layer of AZ31B magnesium alloy

An attempt has been made to improve the surface properties of AZ31B magnesium alloy through solid solution hardening and refinement of microstructures using a CO_2 laser as a heat generating source. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the phases. Microstructure and properties of laser melted layer of AZ31B magnesium alloy were observed or tested by means of optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), micro-hardness equipment and electrochemical corrosion equipment etc. The results show that the microstructure of laser melted layer becomes finer significantly and uniform. Compared with the substrate, the content of β-Mg_(17)Al_(12) phase of melted layer decreases comparatively. Microhardness of the laser melted layer is improved to 50-95HV_(0.05) as compared to 40-45HV_(0.05) of the AZ31B Mg alloy substrate. The results of electrochemical corrosion show that the corrosion resistance of laser surface melted layer has been improved.     

Corrosion behaviour of Mg/Al alloys in high humidity atmospheres

The influence of relative humidity (80–90–98% RH) and temperature (25 and 50 °C) on the corrosion behaviour of AZ31, AZ80 and AZ91D magnesium alloys was evaluated using gravimetric measurements. The results were compared with the data obtained for the same alloys immersed in Madrid tap water. The corrosion rates of AZ alloys increased with the RH and temperature and were influenced by the aluminium content and alloy microstructure for RH values above 90%. The initiation of corrosion was localised around the Al–Mn inclusions in the AZ31 alloy and at the centre of the α‐Mg phase in the AZ80 and AZ91D alloys. The β‐Mg₁₇Al₁₂ phase acted as a barrier against corrosion.
