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.

分别采用T6、T73和RRA 3种时效制度对超声铸造Al-7.8Zn-1.6Mg-1.8Cu-0.12Zr铝合金热轧板进行时效处理,研究时效制度对材料的组织、力学性能与耐腐蚀性能的影响,并与未经超声熔体处理的合金热轧板进行对比。结果表明:对于超声铸造Al-7.8Zn-1.6Mg-1.8Cu-0.12Zr铝合金的热轧板,与T6时效态合金相比,T73时效态合金的抗腐蚀性能较好,但强度显著降低,RRA状态的合金强度与T6态合金相当,抗腐蚀性能显著提高;相对于未经超声熔体处理的合金,在超声波的空化、声流和机械振动效应的作用下,铸态合金的合金元素固溶度以及基体空位浓度都增加,在其组织遗传效应的影响下,采用相同时效工艺处理后合金中析出相的分布更加均匀但出现部分粗化现象,均匀分布的细小析出相对合金的强度有积极影响,粗化的析出相对合金的强度不利,但能提高合金的耐腐蚀性能。     

固溶温度对挤压态Mg-13Al-6Zn-4Cu合金组织与性能的影响

采用不同的固溶温度对挤压态Mg-13Al-6Zn-4Cu(质量分数,%)合金进行热处理,然后在(150℃/10 h)条件下进行时效处理,通过金相显微镜、扫描电镜及能谱分析、维氏硬度与极化曲线测试,研究固溶温度对挤压态合金显微组织、硬度与腐蚀性能的影响。结果表明:固溶处理促进晶界处的β-Mg_(17)Al_(12)相充分溶入α-Mg基体中。提高固溶温度使基体晶粒再结晶长大,逐渐缩小T-MgAlCuZn相心部的Cu元素富集区,改变β析出相的形态和分布,促进层片状β相在α-Mg晶界析出,从而提高时效态合金的硬度。但固溶温度超过420℃时,合金晶粒粗化并发生过烧。固溶温度升高导致合金腐蚀电位负移,腐蚀电流增大,腐蚀速率加快。

Phase transformation of Zn-4Al-3Cu alloy during heat treatment

The phase transformation in Zn-4 Al-3 Cu alloy employing various solution-treatment temperatures (230 °C to 325 °C) was studied by means of microhardness, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The starting microstructure of the as-cast Zn-4Al-3Cu alloy consists of an α phase (aluminum-rich, fcc structure) in the η matrix (zinc-rich, h.c.p. structure) prior to solution-treatment. A platelike ε phase with 3-μm length and 0.5-μm thickness was found in the η phase matrix after solution-treating the as-cast material at 240 °C for 1 hour. The ε phase was then dissolved gradually back into the η matrix above that temperature. A four-phase transformation, α + ε → T′ + η, was observed from the temperature 250 °C to 310 °C, wherein the T′ phase formed at the interface of ε platelet and η phase matrix. This T′ phase was further identified as a rhombohedral structure. As the solution-treatment temperature was increased to above 310 °C, the ε phase was completely dissolved back into the η matrix and numerous β phase particles were distributed uniformly in the η matrix. The β phase subsequently decomposed at room temperature to a fine α phase embedded in the η matrix. For the materials solution-treated above 250 °C, the microhardness of the η matrix increased in 40 minutes during natural aging, which was associated with the formation of fine ε phase of 0.15-μm diameter. The orientation relationship between this fine ε phase and η phase was determined as .

搅拌摩擦加工及后续热处理对7B04-O铝合金组织和硬度的影响

对7B04-O铝合金进行搅拌摩擦加工,对不同旋转速度参数下获得的7B04-O铝合金搅拌区的组织和硬度进行研究,同时利用后续热处理改善搅拌区的组织和硬度.研究表明,搅拌摩擦加工导致搅拌区的晶粒细化,硬度提升.不同的旋转速度会对后续热处理造成影响.采用低转速时,后续热处理不能进一步提高搅拌区的硬度;而采用高转速时,搅拌区的硬度则可以通过后续热处理得到提升.采用O态铝合金作为母材时,基体内的原始析出强化相尺寸粗大,热稳定性较高,难以在搅拌摩擦加工过程中充分溶解.通过提高转速来增加加工热输入可以增加析出相的溶解量,有利于后续热处理对组织和硬度的改善.

Evolution of microstructure and tensile properties of extruded Mg-4Zn-1Y alloy

In order to investigate the effect of extrusion on Mg-4Zn-1Y alloy, microstructure and mechanical properties were analyzed by optical microscopy（OM）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, energy dispersive spectrum（EDS） and tensile testing.The results indicated that the microstructure was obviously refined by extrusion and dynamic recrystallization.The second phases were dynamic precipitated and distributed more dispersively through extrusion.W-Phases（Mg3Zn3Y2） were twisted and broken, while I-Phases（Mg3Zn6Y） were spheroidized by deformation.Twin bands were formed to achieve the large deformation and hinder the slip of dislocations effectively to improve tensile properties.The tensile strength and elongation of extruded Mg-4Zn-1Y alloy were 254.94 MPa and 17.9% respectively which were improved greatly compared with those of as-cast alloy.The strengthening mechanisms of the extruded alloy were mainly fine-grain strengthening and distortion strengthening.     

Mg-6Al-1Zn-Y镁合金组织及力学性能的研究

在Mg-6Al-1Zn合金的基础上添加不同质量分数的Y（分别为0％，0．5％，0．9％，1．4％），制备了4种实验合金，研究了Y的添加对合金组织性能的影响。通过X射线衍射、金相显微镜、扫描电镜、电子探针等手段分析了Mg-6Al-1Zn合金添加Y后组织结构的变化。研究结果表明，添加了不同含量Y的合金中都出现了一种新相Al2Y相。随着Y含量的增加，Al2Y相数量增多而Mg17Al 12相则减少。Y能细化合金铸态及挤压态显微组织，其细化作用在添加了0．9％Y的镁合金中尤为明显。铸态合金室温拉伸试验表明：该合金具有最佳的综合力学性能。当Y含量添加至1．4％时，Al2Y相变得粗大且出现团聚现象而导致了拉伸性能的下降。经过挤压后，合金的力学性能大幅度上升。     

The effect of copper content and heat treatment on the stress corrosion characteristics of Ai-6Zn-2Mg-X Cu alloys

The effect of copper and aging on the stress corrosion characteristics of Al-6 pct Zn-2 pct Mg-(0.01-2.1) pct Cu alloys in 3.5 pct NaCl was studied with other variables remaining constant. In the peak-strength condition the crack velocity in the stress-independent region decreased by two orders of magnitude when copper was increased from 0.01 to 2.1 pct. In the stress-dependent region crack velocity decreased only for copper contents higher than 1 pct. Overaging further reduced the plateau crack velocity in all the alloys studied. The results are interpreted on the basis of the effects of copper and aging on the deformation mechanism and electrochemical activity of the phases.
