Al-6.1Zn-2.6Mg-1.6Cu 铝合金的回归再时效热处理

The effects of the retrogression temperature and time of retrogression and re-aging heat treatment(RRA) on the hardness and electrical conductivity of Al-6.1Zn-2.6Mg-1.6Cu aluminum alloy were studied. Samples were pre-aged at 120℃ for 24h as the first-stage treatment. Then, retrogression was performed at a temperature range of 170～250℃ for times of between 1min and 180min, followed by re-aging at 120℃ for 24h. Hardness (H) and electrical conductivity (EC) measurements were used to characterize the samples after RRA treatment. Analysis of the results shows: (1)The re-aging treatment at 120℃ for 24 h increases both H and EC of the retrogressed alloy in the RRA process;(2) RRA with retrogression at higher than 200℃ result in EC higher than that of peak-aged, but H lower; The change of H and EC with respect to retrogression temperature (T) and time (t) can be seen as functions of H (t) = H0 A1e(-t/s) ,EC(t) =A(1-e(-k·(t-Xc)));(3) RRA treatments with retrogression at 190℃ for 4～30min result in H and EC which are both higher than those of the peak-aged temper, and retrogression at 190℃for 30min is the industrial application that yields H of 190 HV and EC of 33.5%IACS.

Stress corrosion cracking of sensitized AA5083 (Al-4.5Mg-1.0Mn)

The AA5083 (Al-4.4Mg-0.7Mn-0.15Cr) alloy is a nonheat-treatable aluminum alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance. However, it can become susceptible to intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) when exposed to temperatures ranging from 50 °C to 200 °C for sufficient lengths of time. This IGSCC is widely believed to be associated with dissolution of the electrochemically active β phase, Al₃Mg₂, which is precipitated on grain boundaries. Recently, alternative mechanisms have been invoked related to hydrogen effects and/or free Mg segregation or depletion in the grainboundary regions. To establish a baseline for the sensitization effect, constant-extension-rate tests (CERTs) were conducted under open-circuit conditions and under potential control in 3.5 pct NaCl on samples isothermally treated at 150 °C. To aid in interpreting the CERT results, grain-boundary precipitation and solute depletion were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Additionally, the electrochemical behavior of the β phase was characterized by anodic polarization of the intermetallic compound synthesized in bulk form. In CERTs under open-circuit conditions, the measured ductility depended strongly on sensitization time, reaching a minimum at 189 hours, followed by a slight increase at longer times. This trend correlated well with the fractional coverage of β phase on grain boundaries, which increased up to 189 hours, where it existed with nearly continuous coverage. At longer times, this film coarsened and became discontinuous. Correspondingly, some resistance to IGSCC was recovered. In polarization experiments, bulk synthesized β phase was found to be spontaneously passive from its corrosion potential (−1.40 V_SCE) up to about −0.92 V_SCE, where passivity was observed to break down. Sensitized AA5083 samples polarized below the β-phase breakdown potential showed almost no evidence of IGSCC, indicating that a high β dissolution rate is a requirement for IGSCC. Mg-depleted zones were observed along grain boundaries in sensitized alloys, but a clear role for solute depletion in IGSCC could not be defined on the basis of the results developed in this study.     

Effect of alloying elements on the solidification characteristics and microstructure of Al- Si- Cu- Mg- Fe 380 alloy

The effect of varying the major alloying elements within the limits of specification on the solidification behavior, fluidity, and microstructure of a 380 alloy has been studied at two cooling rates. The thermal analysis technique has been used to study the solidification behavior. The alloying elements investigated ranged from 3.22 to 4.09 pct copper, 1.01 to 1.70 pct iron, 0.06 to 0.50 pct magnesium, 1.69 to 3.00 pct zinc, and 0.16 to 0.46 pct manganese. The results show that the solidification behavior of the 380 alloys is complicated, and the cooling curve at 0.4 ‡C/s indicates six reactions taking place during the process of solidification. Cooling curves obtained for each of the alloying element additions, their analysis, and the resultant microstructures are discussed.     

Microstructure and mechanical properties of spray-deposited Al-17Si-4.5Cu-0.6Mg wrought alloy

High Si content in Al-Si alloys usually leads to the formation of coarse, brittle Si phase under slow solidification conditions. In the present study, an Al-17Si-4.5Cu-0.6Mg (referred to hereafter as AS17) was synthesized using spray deposition to modify the Si phase. In the spray deposition process, the master alloy of AS17 was atomized using N₂ gas, and was deposited on a collecting substrate directly into a three-dimensional material. The microstructure and mechanical behavior of the spray-deposited AS17 were studied using optical microscopy (OM) scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction, and tensile tests. The present results indicate that in the spray-deposited AS17, the eutectic Si phase was modified from a “flakelike” morphology, characteristic of ingot metallurgy (IM) materials, into a “particulate” morphology. The formation of the coarse primary Si blocks was suppressed. Moreover, the size and morphology of Si particulates were found to have significant influences on the deformation behavior. During plastic deformation, extensive fracture of Si occurred. The percentage of fractured Si increased with the increasing amount of plastic deformation and the size of Si particulates. Finally, the room-temperature mechanical properties of the spray-deposited AS17 were compared with its IM counterpart A390 (an IM alloy with identical composition as AS17). The strength and ductility of AS17 were improved over those of A390. In the T6 condition, the yield strength and tensile elongation of AS17 were 503 MPa and 3.0 pct, respectively, whereas those of A390 were 374 MPa and 1.3 pet, respectively.
