喷射成形Mg-9Al-xZn合金的微观组织演变

利用喷射成形技术制备AZ91、AZ92和AZ93镁合金沉积柱坯,并对其微观组织演变进行观察.结果表明:铸态普通凝固AZ91合金的晶粒粗大,脆性β-Mg17Al12相连续分布成网状结构;而喷射成形AZ91、AZ92和AZ93合金的组织均匀,晶粒被充分细化,β-Mg17Al12相的网状结构被打破;喷射沉积快速凝固条件下高的冷却速率促进了过饱和α-Mg固溶体组织的形成,使得偏析相减少,形态改善;Zn含量的增加降低了Al在Mg中的溶解极限,促进了β-Mg17Al12相在晶界的析出及α-Mg+β-Mg17Al12离异共晶组织的形成;Zn元素的偏析倾向为激活成分过冷区内的形核质点提供了驱动力,从而阻碍了晶粒长大.     

AZ61镁合金的差热分析及凝固组织观察

通过差热分析并结合金相组织观察的方法研究了AZ61镁合金相变温度点和凝固组织的特征,并对凝固组织演变机理做了理论分析。结果表明:AZ61镁合金固液转变温度在587.10~608.43℃之间,共晶转变温度在413℃左右;AZ61镁合金在凝固过程中首先析出α-Mg树枝晶,α-Mg树枝晶间富Al的残余液体发生共晶转变,形成α-Mg+β-Mg17Al12共晶组织。共晶组织中的α-Mg相往往依附初晶α-Mg形核生长,并将β-Mg17Al12相推向α-Mg枝晶的晶界,形成离异共晶组织。     

微量钒对AZ91D镁合金显微组织的影响

研究了添加微量钒对AZ91D镁合金显微组织的影响。在AZ91D镁合金熔炼过程加入AlV55中间合金引入钒元素,用光学显微镜、扫描电镜、能谱仪和X射线衍射等分析研究了加钒前后合金组织的变化以及钒在合金中的存在形式。结果表明:钒的引入使β-Mg17Al12相由不连续网状逐渐离散化,钒在AZ91D合金中主要以新相Al3V形式溶解或分散于β-Mg17Al12相和α-Mg基体中。高熔点的新相Al3V在AZ91D镁合金凝固过程中先于其他相生成聚集在固液界面前沿,抑制晶粒的长大;同时由于α-Mg相细化而使晶界面积增加,相应的单位面积晶界处发生共晶反应的熔液体积减少,生成的β-Mg17Al12相变得细小。同时由于晶粒尺寸减小以及晶界处Al3V相的强化作用,AZ91D合金的硬度随着添加钒含量的增加呈增大趋势。     

Si对喷射成形AZ91镁合金微观组织的影响

在保护气氛中采用喷射成形技术制各AZ91和AZ91+2.0%Si镁合金,采用OM、SEM、XRD及TEM等技术分别对合金的微观组织进行观察和分析.结果表明:与相同成分的铸造镁合金相比,喷射成形技术显著细化合金组织;喷射成形沉积态AZ91镁合金具有均匀、细小的等轴晶组织,平均晶粒尺寸约为17 μm,离异共晶β-Mg17Al12相在晶界的偏析被有效改善:对于喷射成形AZ91+2.0%Si镁合金,喷射成形过程中高的冷却速度抑制了Mg2Si相的长大,细小的Mg2Si相呈现为近球形或多边形态,与基体结合良好且弥散分布,并可以作为а-Mg异质彤核核心,使合金组织得到充分细化.

Gd对Mg9AlZnY镁合金消失模组织和性能的影响

在Mg9AlZnY合金基础上添加不同含量Gd元素,采用消失模铸造成形,研究其组织性能变化。结果发现,随着Gd含量的增加,Mg9AlZnY合金中的β-Mg17Al12相形成数量显著减少,并由连续网状结构转变为断续状和颗粒状结构。含Gd的Mg9AlZnY合金组织主要由α-Mg固溶体、β-Mg17Al12相和分布在α-Mg晶界的少量棒状Al2Y相和块状Al2Gd相组成。Al2Y和Al2Gd相热稳定性好,在高温下对晶界具有钉扎作用,防止晶界滑移,提高了晶界的高温强度。当Gd含量在0.9%(质量分数)左右时,经T6热处理后室温的抗拉强度为235MPa,200℃高温抗拉强度为156MPa,分别比Mg9AlZnY合金提高了11.9%和28.9%。     

稀土Ho对AZ61合金显微组织及力学性能的影响

采用OM、XRD、SEM、EDS和高温拉伸试验机研究了不同Ho含量对AZ61合金的微观组织与力学性能的影响。结果表明,加入Ho能够细化基体组织,使β-Mg17Al12相由连续的网状变为断续的岛状和鱼骨状,但是加入量超过1.0%时,β相有重新结网的倾向,同时基体也有粗化的趋势。同时从基体中逐渐析出花瓣状的相,可以判断该相为Al-Mn-Ho的三元相。Ho的加入促进Al-Mn相的析出从而转化为三元相,随Ho的加入该相逐渐增多,并均匀分布在基体中和晶界处。同时随着Ho含量的增加,常温和高温下的力学性能都有了一定的改善。分析可知合金的抗拉强度σb、延伸率δ和韧性都在加入Ho量为1.0%时达到最大值分别为207.88 MPa、13.22%、11.5 J/cm2。当Ho含量为1.5%时合金的硬度达到了峰值为68.9 HB。当Ho加入量为1.0%时高温性能效果最佳,强度和延伸率分别为128 MPa、13.2%.     

Effect of Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasicrystals on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy

To improve the strength, toughness, heat-resistance and deformability of magnesium alloy, the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy strengthened by Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal phase (I-phase) particles were investigated. Mg40Zn55Nd5 (I-phase) particles in addition to α-Mg, MgZn phase and MgZn2 phases can be obtained in ZK60-based composites under normal casting condition by the addition of quasi-crystal containing Mg-Zn-Nd master alloy. The experimental results show that the introduction of Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal phase into ZK60 alloy makes a great contribution to the refinement of the matrix microstructures and the improvement of mechanical properties. While adding Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal master alloy of 4.0wt.%, the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of ZK60-based composite at ambient temperature reach their peak values of 256.7 MPa and 150.4 MPa, which were about 17.8% and 24.1% higher respectively than those of the ZK60 alloy. The improved mechanical properties are mainly attributed to the pinning effect of the quasi-crystal particles (I-phase) at the grain boundaries. This research results provide a new way for strengthening and toughening of magnesium alloys as well as a new application of Mg-based spherical quasi-crystals.

Effect of hot extrusion on microstructure and mechanical properties of quasicrystal-reinforced Mg-Zn-Y alloy

The microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast and as-extruded Mg-Zn-Y alloy （Mg-11 %Zn- 0.9%Y, mass fraction） containing Mg3 YZn6 quasicrystal were studied. The eutectic icosahedral quasicrystal phase （I-phase） is broken and almost distributes along the extrusion direction, and fine I-phase with nano-size is precipitated during the extrusion. The a-Mg matrix grains are refined due to recrystallization occuring during the hot extrusion. Some {1012} twins are observed in the extruded ZW1101 alloy. And {0002}（1010） fiber texture is formed in matrix alloys after hot extrusion. The extruded alloy exhibits high strength in combination with large elongation at room temperature. The strengthening mechanism of the as-extruded alloy was discussed.     

Effects of spherical quasi-crystal on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZA155 high zinc magnesium alloy

Effects of spherical quasi-crystal contained in Mg-Zn-Y-Mn master alloy on the microstructure and as-cast mechanical properties of ZA155 high zinc magnesium alloy have been investigated by means of optical microscopy, XRD, SEM, EDS, tensile test, impact test and hardness test. Experimental results show that the addition of spherical quasi-crystal contained in the Mg-Zn-Y-Mn master alloy into the ZA155 high zinc magnesium alloy resulted in grain refinement of the matrix, changing the morphologies of φ-Al2Mg5Zn2 phase and τ-Mg32(Al,Zn)49 phase from continuous net-like structures to discontinuous strip-like structure and blocky one, respectively.In the present research, the best comprehensive mechanical properties of reinforced ZA155 high zinc magnesium alloy has been obtained when 5.0wt% spherical quasi-crystal was introduced from the Mg-Zn-Y-Mn master alloy into the target alloy system. In such case, the room-temperature tensile strength reached 207 MPa, about 23% higher than that of the base alloy; the impact toughness peaked at 5.5 J/cm2, about 40% higher than that of the base alloy; and the elevated-temperature tensile strength reached 203 MPa, indicating improved heat resistance.     

Influence of aging modes on microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ80 magnesium alloy

The microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ80 magnesium alloy after solid solution and aging treatments were studied by using optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) as well as tensile testing. The results indicated that β-Mg17Al12 phase was getting to distribute discontinuously along the grain boundary after treated at 395℃ ageing for 12 h followed by water-cooling, but it did not dissolve into α-Mg completely. The residual β-Mg17Al12 phase distributed along the grain boundary and had block-like or island shapes. The size of α-Mg was getting to be coarsening but not significantly. The β-Mg17Al12 precipitates appeared in discontinuous and continuous patterns from supersaturated α-Mg solid solution after aged at 200℃. The precipitation patterns were associated with the aging time essentially. The tensile strength and elongation of the alloy increased significantly but the hardness and yield strength decreased after solid solution treatment. However, with the prolonging of aging time, the hardness and strength of alloy increased while the ductility decreased.
