微量Er在高强Al-Zn-Mg-Cu合金中的存在形式及其“遗传效应”

采用铁模铸造制备Al-Zn-Mg-Cu及Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-0.15% Er两种合金铸锭。利用光学显微镜（OM）、扫描电镜（SEM）及能谱分析（EDS）、差热分析（DSC）、透射电镜（TEM）、X射线衍射分析（XRD）和常温拉伸等方法研究了Er元素在Al-Zn-Mg-Cu合金铸态组织、均匀化态组织、变形组织以及时效态组织中的存在形式、作用机理以及其对合金室温拉伸性能的影响。研究结果表明： 微量Er元素对Al-Zn-Mg-Cu合金铸态组织有一定细化作用,但这种作用较为有限。Er在合金中主要以三元Al8Cu4Er相的形式存在,该相在合金凝固过程中形成并偏聚在晶界附近,常出现在共晶网状结构之间。此外,还有少量的Er生成了细小Al3Er粒子。Al8Cu4Er相熔点约为573.8°C,为难溶硬脆第二相,在合金变形过程中易破碎从而会导致裂纹萌生或成为粒子诱发再结晶形核的核心,最终会对合金的综合力学性能产生不利的影响。

均匀化退火对Mg-3Al-1Zn-2.2/5Sr镁合金中第二相的影响

为研究均匀化退火处理对Mg-3Al-1Zn-2.2/5Sr镁合金中第二相的影响,通过X射线衍射分析(XRD)、扫描电镜观察(SEM)和能谱分析(EDS)等手段,并结合Pandat热力学计算软件,对Mg-3Al-1Zn-2.2/5Sr镁合金均匀化退火后组织中的第二相的类型及形成原因进行了分析。结果表明:经过400℃,15 h(炉冷)的均匀化退火处理以后,合金铸态组织中原本存在的(Mg,Al)17Sr2相中固溶的Al元素所占原子分数有所降低。此外,Sr含量为2.2%(质量分数)的合金组织中可以观察到大量沿(Mg,Al)17Sr2相边缘分布的颗粒状Al4Sr相,而Sr含量为5%的合金中基本观察不到(Mg,Al)17Sr2相的变化。     

Effect of Cu addition on microstructure and properties of Mg-10Zn-5Al-0.1Sb high zinc magnesium alloy

To improve the strength,hardness and heat resistance of Mg-Zn based alloys,the effects of Cu addition on the as-cast microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-10Zn-5Al-0.1Sb high zinc magnesium alloy were investigated by means of Brinell hardness measurement,scanning electron microscopy (SEM),energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS),XRD and tensile tests at room and elevated temperatures.The results show that the microstructure of as-cast Mg-10Zn-5Al-0.1Sb alloy is composed of α-Mg,t-Mg32(Al,Zn)49,φ-Al2Mg5Zn2 and Mg3Sb2 phases.The morphologies of these phases in the Cu-containing alloys change from semi-continuous long strip to black herringbone as well as particle-like shapes with increasing Cu content.When the addition of Cu is over 1.0wt.%,the formation of a new thermally-stable Mg2Cu phase can be observed.The Brinell hardness,room temperature and elevated temperature strengths firstly increase and then decrease as the Cu content increases.Among the Cu-containing alloys,the alloy with the addition of 2.0wt.% Cu exhibits the optimum mechanical properties.Its hardness and strengths at room and elevated temperatures are 79.35 HB,190MPa and 160MPa,which are increased by 9.65%,21.1% and 14.3%,respectively compared with those of the Cu-free one.After T6 heat treatment,the strengths at room and elevated temperatures are improved by 20% and 10%,respectively compared with those of the as-cast alloy.This research results provide a new way for strengthening of magnesium alloys at room and elevated temperatures,and a method of producing thermally-stable Mg-10Zn-5Al based high zinc magnesium alloys.     

Mg含量对Al-Zn-Mg铝合金组织及性能的影响

通过改变镁的含量,设计了4种不同成分的Al-6.0Zn-xMg合金。采用光学显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)、差式扫描量热分析仪(DSC)、硬度、导电率以及室温拉伸等分析测试方法,研究了Mg含量对Al-Zn-Mg合金铸态、均匀化态组织性能及T6态力学性能的影响。结果表明:4种铸态合金组织晶界附近存在大量共晶网状结构与链状第二相,主要为α(Al)+三元T(AlZnMg)相,合金中还存在少量的Al₃(Zr,Ti)相和富铁相,提高Mg含量会使合金组织中的非平衡共晶相增加。合金均匀化处理后空冷,基体内有大量细小弥散的针状η(MgZn₂)相析出,且随着Mg含量的提高,这种针状η(MgZn₂)相的析出数量也逐渐增多。随着Mg含量增加,硬度逐渐增加,导电率逐渐下降,且均匀化态合金的硬度及导电率比铸态的高。4种T6态合金中Al-6.0Zn-2Mg合金的综合力学性能最佳。

Zn与Mg质量比对热挤压Al-Zn-Mg-Sc显微组织及力学性能的影响

制备了Al-2Mg-0.4Sc、Al-5Mg-0.4Sc、Al-5Mg-2Zn-0.4Sc和Al-5Zn-2Mg-0.4Sc等4种合金并在350℃进行热挤压,通过光学显微镜(OM),X射线衍射(XRD),扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、室温拉伸测试,研究了Zn/Mg比对于Al-Zn-Mg-Sc合金组织与力学性能的影响。结果表明,Zn/Mg比的提高对于铸态晶粒具有细化作用,挤压后发生动态再结晶,晶粒尺寸显著减小,但挤压态晶粒尺寸并未随Zn/Mg比的提高而减小。另一方面,Zn/Mg比的提高使Mg32(Al,Zn)49第二相数量增加,且呈现更明显的网状结构。挤压态Al-Zn-Mg-Sc合金屈服强度随Zn/Mg比的提高而提升,主要由于大量Al3Sc粒子与碎化的第二相呈网状分布于晶界,使第二相强化起到主导作用。

采用电导率、显微硬度、扫描电子显微镜（SEM）和透射电子显微镜（TEM）研究Al-0．30Zr与Al-0．30Zr-0．08Y合金的微观组织与性能。铸态Al-Zr-Y合金中微米尺度初生Al3Y相通过共晶反应在晶内和晶界上同时生成。在Al-Zr-Y合金中,Y明显加速了Al3Zr（Ll2）的析出动力学。由于较大体积Al3（Zr,Y）析出相的生成,Al-Zr-Y合金的电导率明显高于Al-Zr合金的。在Al-Zr-Y合金中观察到了高密度的弥散球状Ll2结构Al3（Zr-Y）析出相。Al-0．30Zr-0．08Y合金具有比Al-0．30Zr合金更强的抗再结晶能力。

Solidification path calculations of Al-Zn-Mg alloys in Al-rich corner

The solidification paths of Al-Zn-Mg alloys in the Al-rich corner were investigated. The thermodynamic data for the calculation are obtained by direct coupling with the CALPHAD software Thermo-Calc via its TQ6-interface and the COST2 database. The influences of the initial compositions and the extent of solid back diffusion on the solidification path were numerically investigated by sample calculation of the ternary Al-Zn-Mg alloys. The calculation results of solidification paths of the selected alloys: Al-Zn-3 Mg(in wt.%), Al-5 Zn-10 Mg, Al-2.5Zn-15Mg, Al-10Zn-20.5 Mg, Al-8Zn-25 Mg, were: L→(L+α-Al), L→(L+α-Al)→(L+α-Al+TAU), L→(L+α-Al)→(L+α-Al+Al Mg_β), L→(L+α-Al)→(L+α-Al+TAU)→(L+α-Al+TAU+Al Mg_β), L→(L+α-Al)→(L+α-Al+Al Mg_β)→(L+α-Al+TAU+Al Mg_β), respectively. The results show that the initial compositions and the extent of solid back diffusion have a great influence on solidification path, and the amounts of eutectic phase increase with the decrease of the solid back diffusion coefficient. The equilibrium solute partition coefficients for Zn and Mg in alloys are also calculated and their influence on micro-segregation in the primary solidification of Al-5Zn-10 Mg alloy is analyzed.     

铸态和挤压变形态Mg-Zn-Al-Re镁合金的室温和高温力学性能

采用透射电子显微镜、扫描电子显微镜及能谱分析、拉伸力学性能测试等手段比较分析了铸态和挤压变形态Mg-7Zn-3Al-0～0.7Re(质量分数,%)镁合金的室温和高温力学性能,探讨了稀土和变形加工对合金强度和塑性的影响规律。结果表明,适量稀土Er可以显著提高铸态Mg-Zn-Al合金的高温塑性,而稀土含量对合金室温力学性能和高温屈服强度影响不明显;挤压变形过程中动态弥散析出纳米级的球形析出相,显著提高Mg-Zn-Al-Er合金的高温力学性能,其200℃下的屈服强度和延伸率分别较铸态提高了105%和120%,断口显示其断裂方式呈明显的韧性断裂特征。

Effects of Sc, Zr and Ti on the microstructure and properties of Al alloys with high Mg content

The effects of trace Sc, Zr, and Ti on the microstructure and hardness of Al alloys with high Mg content (Al-6Mg, Al-8Mg, and Al-10Mg) were studied by optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Brinell hardness. The grain size of the as-cast alloys was refined by the addition of Sc and Zr, and it was further refined by the addition of Ti. With the same contents of Sc, Zr, and Ti, an increase in Mg content was beneficial to the refinement due to the solution of Mg into α-Al. The refined micro-structures of the as-cast alloys were favorable for Brineil hardness. Addition of Sc, Zr, and Ti to the Al-10Mg alloy results in the improve-ment of peak hardness and it is about 45% higher than that of the Al-10Mg alloy, which is due to fine precipitations of Al_3(Sc_(1-x)Zr_x), Al_3(Sc_(1-x)Ti_x), and Al_3(Sc_(1-x-y)Zr_xTi_y).     

常压及高压凝固Al-Mg及Al-Mg-Zn合金中Al相的固溶体结构

采用X射线衍射仪、能谱仪和透射电镜分别对Al-9.6%Mg合金、Al-11Mg-4.5Zn合金和Al-17Zn-1.5Mg合金常压及6 GPa高压凝固后Al相的固溶体结构进行研究。结果表明:6GPa高压凝固后,Al-9.6%Mg合金中Mg在Al相中的固溶度显著增大;在Al-11Mg-4.5Zn合金和Al-17Zn-1.5Mg合金中,Mg、Zn溶质在Al相中的固溶度均增大,但Zn比Mg固溶的比例要大得多。在常压凝固条件下,与纯铝相比,3种合金中Al相的晶格常数均增大。与常压凝固相比,高压凝固Al-9.6Mg合金和Al-11Mg-4.5Zn中Al相晶格常数分别增大了1.178%和0.220%;在Al-17Zn-1.5Mg合金中,Al相晶格常数变化很小。此外,在Al-Mg-Zn合金中,原子半径较大的Mg固溶到Al相中,导致其晶格常数增大,原子半径较小的Zn固溶到Al相中,导致其晶格常数减小,且高压凝固后,溶质的原子半径越小,在Al相中固溶的比例越大。     

复合添加Cr、Mn、Zr对Al-Zn-Mg合金组织和性能的影响

通过光学显微镜、扫描电镜、透射电镜观察以及拉伸试验等手段,研究Cr、Mn、Zr微合金元素对Al-Zn-Mg合金组织和性能的影响。结果表明:复合添加Zr、Mn、Cr在基体上析出大量不规则的、直径为10~20 nm与基体共格的(Al,Cr)₃Zr粒子。(Al,Cr)₃Zr粒子弥散相能强烈钉扎位错、阻碍位错和亚晶界迁移,显著抑制再结晶和晶粒长大。复合添加Zr、Mn、Cr的Al-Zn-Mg合金的抗拉强度和规定塑性延伸强度分别提高34 MPa、19 MPa,具有较好的加工性能和力学性能。     

Al-Cu-Ce合金的微观组织与力学性能

采用X射线衍射、金相显微镜、扫描电镜、能谱分析及拉伸性能测试等方法,研究3种成分Al-Cu-Ce合金的显微组织与力学性能。结果表明:铸态Al-14Cu-7Ce合金由α-Al+Al8CeCu4片状共晶组成,而Al-10Cu-5Ce、Al-18Cu-9Ce合金中除含有α-Al+Al8CeCu4共晶组织外,还分别含有α-Al和Al8CeCu4初生相。铸态Al-14Cu-7Ce合金具有优良耐热性能,即使550℃×3 h退火后仍能保持约360 MPa的抗拉强度,退火导致合金强度下降的主要原因是高温下共晶Al8CeCu4相的球化。经充分球化退火后,Al-Cu-Ce合金能获得良好的热轧、冷轧变形能力,并且变形态合金也具有良好的耐热性能,因而Al-Cu-Ce合金有望成为一种兼具铸造和变形两用的新型耐热铝合金。     

Ce含量对Mg-Li-Al-Zn合金显微组织和拉伸性能的影响(英文)

制备了Mg-5Li-3Al-2Zn-xCe(x=0-2.5;质量分数,%)铸态合金,并将所得合金分别于300°C和370°C进行均匀化和固溶处理;研究固溶处理后合金显微组织和拉伸性能的变化。结果表明,合金中加入Ce后出现Al2Ce/Al3Ce析出相,此时合金主要由α-Mg、Al2Ce、Al3Ce和AlLi相组成;固溶处理后合金中AlLi和Al-Ce析出相数量减少。析出相的数量与形态对合金的力学性能十分重要,含有1.0%Ce的合金获得了优良的拉伸性能。固溶处理后Mg-5Li-3Al-2Zn-0.5Ce合金的强度和伸长率都得到了大幅度的提高,这是因为合金在固溶处理后由于基体中的溶质原子增加而获得良好的固溶强化作用。
