Electromagnetic levitation and electron beam surface melting were employed to study the effects of supercooling and cooling
rate on the solidification of Cu-10 wt pct Co alloys. Two major effects were observed in the supercooled alloys: the nucleation
of a metastable copper-rich phase which contains 13 wt pct to 20 wt pct Co in samples supercooled between 105 and 150 K and
liquid phase separation which occurs in samples supercooled 150 K or more. The microstructure of the electron beam melted
surfaces consisted of very fine spheres which were similar to those of the sample supercooled more than 150 K but with a refined
microstructure. The results indicate that a dynamic bulk supercooling of 150 K may exist in the molten pool during the solidification
of electron beam melted surfaces. 相似文献

Fe-Co alloy melts with Co contents of 10, 30, and 60 at. pct were undercooled to investigate the dependence of the primary
phase on grain coarsening. A pronounced characteristic is that the metastable fcc phase in the Fe-10 at. pct Co alloy and
the metastable bcc phase in the Fe-30 at. pct Co alloy will primarily nucleate when undercoolings of the melts are larger
than the critical undercoolings for the formation of metastable phases in both alloys. No metastable bcc phase can be observed
in the Fe-60 at. pct Co alloy, even when solidified at the maximum undercooling of ΔT = 312 K. Microstructural investigation shows that the grain size in Fe-10 and Fe-30 at. pct Co alloys increases with undercoolings
when the undercoolings of the melts exceed the critical undercoolings. The grain size of the Fe-60 at. pct Co alloy solidified
in the undercooling range of 30 to 312 K, in which no metastable phase can be produced, is much finer than those of the Fe-10
and Fe-30 at. pct Co alloys after the formation of metastable phases. The model for breakage of the primary metastable dendrite
at the solid-liquid interface during recalescence and remelting of dendrite cores is suggested on the basis of microstructures
observed in the Fe-10 and Fe-30 at. pct Co alloys. The grain coarsening after the formation of metastable phases is analyzed,
indicating that the different crystal structures present after the crystallization of the primary phase may play a significant
role in determining the final grain size in the undercooled Fe-Co melts. 相似文献

The phase diagram for the Fe−Ni system below 400°C has been determined experimentally in the composition range from 0 to 52
wt pct Ni using analytical electron microscopy techniques. High spatial resolution X-ray microanalysis and electron diffraction
were conducted on the Fe−Ni regions of meteorites. Both stable and metastable phase boundaries were defined. Our phase diagram
is consistent with the available theoretical diagram in that firm experimental evidence was found for a miscibility gap and
an associated, asymmetrical spinodal decomposition region. The spinodal decomposition resulted in a two-phase, isotropic microstructure,
as expected. The miscibility gap is a metastable construction arising from the presence of a tricritical point due to magnetic
interactions. Our experimental diagram differs from the theoretical diagram in three ways. First, observations of meteorite
structures show that Fe−Ni solid solution containing 4.0 wt pct Ni is in local equilibrium with ordered FeNi containing 51.4
wt pct Ni and not Ni3Fe as in the theoretical diagram. Second, our miscibility gap below 400°C, located between 11.7 and 51.9 wt pct Ni at 200°C,
is wider than the calculated miscribility gap, especially at the high Ni end. Third, we also find evidence for an ordered
structure around ∼25 wt pct Ni. This structure may be either Fe3Ni or a two-phase structure incorporating ordered FeNi. 相似文献

Ni-base superalloys containing high Co (>20 wt pct) and Ti (>5.5 wt pct) were designed in order to study the effects of Co16.9
wt pct Ti addition on phase stability and mechanical property. These new alloys, though they contained high Ti, mainly consisted
of γ and γ′ phases. Ni3Ti (η) phase was observed along the grain boundaries in some of the alloys. The formation of η phase was mainly related to
the Ti/Al ratio, Ti content, and alloy composition. Tensile and compression tests showed that these new alloys exhibited higher
yield stress than that of the baseline alloy, TMW-1(U720LI). The possible strengthening mechanisms were discussed in terms
of solid-solution and precipitation strengthening effects by the Co16.9 wt pct Ti additions. Preliminary results show promising
trends for the development of new superalloys for turbine disc applications. 相似文献

Although Al-Li-Cu alloys showed initial promise as lightweight structural materials, implementation into primary aerospace
applications has been hindered due in part to their characteristic anisotropic mechanical and fracture behaviors. The Air
Force recently developed two isotropic Al-Li-Cu-X alloys with 2.1 wt pct Li and 1.8 wt pct Li designated AF/C-489 and AF/C-458,
respectively. The elongation at peak strength was less than the required 5 pct for the 2.1 wt pct Li variant but greater than
10 pct for the 1.8 wt pct Li alloy. The objectives of our investigations were to first identify the mechanisms for the large
difference in ductility between the AF/C-489 and AF/C-458 alloys and then to develop an aging schedule to optimize the microstructure
for high ductility and strength levels. Duplex and triple aging practices were designed to minimize grain boundary precipitation
while encouraging matrix precipitation of the T1 (Al2CuLi) strengthening phase. Certain duplex aged conditions for the AF/C-489 alloy showed significant increases in ductility
by as much as 85 pct with a small decrease of only 6.5 and 2.5 pct in yield and ultimate tensile strength, respectively. However,
no significant variations were found through either duplex or triple aging practices for the AF/C-458 alloys, thus, indicating
a very large processing window. Grain size and δ′ (Al3Li) volume fraction were determined to be the major cause for the differences in the mechanical properties of the two alloys. 相似文献

Alloying of Ti-based alloys with hydrogen is used to modify the microstructure and improve mechanical properties. In this
study, hydrogen charging was performed electrochemically in a 2:1 glycerin-phosphoric acid electrolyte at high fugacities.
This research investigated in detail, by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron
microscopy (TEM), thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), and microhardness tests, the influence of hydrogen at high fugacities
on the phase stability, desorption behavior, and microhardness in Ti-Nb (20 to 45 wt pct Nb) alloys before and after deformation.
Hydrogenation of Ti-Nb was found to exhibit a significant effect on the phase stability as well as the microhardness of Ti-Nb
alloys. Hydrogenation of Ti-20 wt pct Nb led to precipitation of (Ti,Nb)H
x
in the metastable α″ matrix. In Ti-Nb alloys with 40 or 45 wt pct niobium, hydrogen stabilized the bcc β phase, but destabilized the hcp ω phase. With increasing hydrogen content, an expansion of the lattice constant of the β phase occurred, followed by the formation of (Ti,Nb)H
x
. The influence of hydrogen on the microhardness of Ti-40 wt pct Nb and Ti-45 wt pct Nb shows only a minor effect, whereas
Ti-20 wt pct Nb exhibits significant softening in response to hydrogen charging up to 3000 ppm. The TDS showed that deuterium
desorption strongly depends on the niobium content and the deformation treatment prior to or after charging. The observed
results should provide further insight on the mutual effects and the resulting micromechanism of hydrogenation and deformation
in Ti-Nb alloys.

Precipitation in rapidly solidified Al-Mn alloys 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Precipitation at 450 °C was studied in melt-spun ribbons containing up to 15 wt pct Mn in solid solution in Al. The as-spun
ribbons were microsegregation-free at compositions up to 5 wt pct Mn, but in more concentrated alloys a cellular microstructure
was present. Upon annealing, four precipitate phases are observed, some of them being found preferentially on cell boundaries
and others being found within the cells. Al6Mn, G, and the Gℍ phase can coexist for long times at 450 °C, but the G phase appears to be slightly more stable. A less stable
T phase was detected in Al-5 wt pct Mn foils following short annealing periods. The supersaturation of the Al matrix can persist
for many hours in alloys containing up to 3 wt pct Mn, but is essentially gone after 1 hour in alloys with 5 wt pct Mn or
more.

Microstructure and its development in Cu-Al-Ni alloys 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The microstructure of as-cast Cu-AI-Ni alloys, based on copper containing 9 to 10 wt pct Al and up to 5 wt pct Ni, has been
examined. The development of the microstructure on continuous cooling has also been investigated. For alloys with 9.2 to 9.3
wt pct Al, and less than 1 wt pct Ni, the as-cast microstructure consists of proeutectoid α solid solution, α + γ2 eutectoid, and martensitic β. If the nickel content is more than 2.5 wt pct, the α + γ2 eutectoid is replaced by α + β
2
′
eutectoid, and no martensitic β is observed in the as-cast alloys. The morphologies of the β
2
′
and γ2 eutectoid phases are similar; both have the Kurdjumov-Sachs (K-S) orientation relationship with the a phase. Two eutectoid
reactions, involving β to α + γ2 and β to α + β′2, have been observed in an alloy containing 9.7 wt pct Al and 2.7 wt pct Ni. When both eutectoid reactions occur, the Nishiyama-Wassermann
(N-W) orientation relationship exists between γ2 or β
2
′
and the α phase. During continuous cooling, proeutectoid α solid solution is the first phase to precipitate from the high-temperature
β phase. The β to α + β
2
′
eutectoid reaction starts at higher temperatures than the β to α + γ2 reaction. Tempering of the as-cast alloys results in the elimination of the martensitic β.

The impact of cooling rates on the microstructure of Al-U alloys was studied by optical, scanning electron, and transmission
electron microscopy. A variety of solidification techniques were employed to obtain cooling rates ranging between 3 × 10−2 and 106 K/s. High-purity uranium (99.9 pct) and high-purity aluminum (99.99 pct), or “commercially pure” type Al-1050 aluminum alloys
were used to prepare Al-U alloys with U concentration ranging between 3 and 22 wt pct. The U concentration at which a coupled
eutectic growth was observed depends on the cooling rates imposed during solidification and ranged from 13.8 wt pct for the
slower cooling rates to more than 22 wt pct for the fastest cooling rates. The eutectic morphology and its distribution depends
on the type of aluminum used in preparing the alloys and on the cooling rates during solidification. The eutectic in alloys
prepared from pure aluminum was evenly distributed, while for those prepared from Al-1050, the eutectic was unevenly distributed,
with eutectic colonies of up to 3 mm in diameter. Two lamellar eutectic structures were observed in alloys prepared from pure
aluminum containing more than 18 wt pct U, which solidified by cooling rates of about 10 K/s. One structure consisted of the
stable eutectic between UAl4 and Al lamella. The other structure consisted of a metastable eutectic between UAl3 and Al lamella. At least three different eutectic morphologies were observed in alloys prepared from Al-1050. 相似文献

The extension of the solid-solubility limit obtained in Al-Fe alloys up to 4.4 at. pct Fe by rapid quenching from the melt
and the appearance of metastable Al6Fe phase for 4 to 20 wt pct Fe have been reported in the past. Present experiments with isochronal and isothermal annealing
of Al-Fe solid solutions containing 3.6 at. pct Fe have shown that the solutions are very stable at room temperature, and
less stable at 200°C, while at 300°C they decompose very rapidly and a metastable Al6Fe phase appears. This phase is replaced by Al3Fe after annealing for 10 min at 550°C or for 16 hr at 400°C. The Al6Fe phase remains stable for 76 hr at 300°C, while taking more than 670 hr to be replaced by Al3Fe. The author discusses the operation of the “two-piston” quenching apparatus and concludes that the sample thickness cannot
serve as a sufficient criterion for quenching effectiveness. 相似文献

The variation of the kinetics of the martensite transformation with carbon content and martensite habit plane has been investigated
in several Fe−Ni based alloys. Transformation in an Fe-25 wt pct Ni-0.02 wt pct C alloy exhibits predominantly athermal features,
but some apparently isothermal transformation also occurs. In a decarburized alloy, on the other hand, the observed kinetic
features, such as the dependence ofM
s
on cooling rate, were characteristic of an isothermal transformation. In contrast, Fe-29.6 wt pct Ni-10.7 wt pct Co alloys
with carbon contents of 0.009 wt pct C and 0.003 wt pct C transform by burst kinetics to {259}γ plate. At both these carbon levels, theM
b
temperatures of the Fe−Ni−Co alloys are independent of cooling rate. It is proposed that the change in kinetic behavior of
the Fe-25 pct Ni alloy with the different carbon contents is due to the occurrence of dynamic thermal stabilization in the
higher carbon alloy. Dynamic thermal stabilization is relatively unimportant in the Fe−Ni−Co alloys which transform by burst
kinetics to {259}γ plate martensite.

Effect of phosphorus on the microstructure and stress rupture properties in an Fe-Ni-Cr base superalloy 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

This article describes the effect of phosphorus on the microstructure and stress rupture property at 650 °C in an Fe-Ni-Cr
base superalloy. The results showed that phosphorus markedly improved the intergranular precipitation in the range of 0.0005
to 0.016 wt pct, which facilitated M23C6 and M3B2 precipitation but inhibited the formation of MC carbide. A too high phosphorus addition (0.051 wt pct P) resulted in an excessive
precipitation at grain boundaries, while a too low phosphorus content (0.0005 wt pct P) led to many precipitate-free grain
boundaries. Phosphorus also enlarged the size of the γ′ particles and lowered its stability, that η-Ni3Ti preferred to form in the alloy with 0.051 wt pct P. Due to the improvement of the microstructure, appropriate amount of
P content significantly prolonged the rupture life of the alloys in the range of 0.0005 to 0.016 wt pct. The peak value was
660 hours at 0.016 wt pct, more than 4 times that of the alloy with 0.0005 wt pct phosphorus, but phosphorus reduced the fracture
elongation. The mechanism by which phosphorus influenced the alloy is discussed. 相似文献

The mechanical and fracture properties of austenitic stainless steels (SSs) alloyed with gallium require assessment in order
to determine the likelihood of premature storage-container failure following Ga uptake. AISI 304 L SS was cast with 1, 3,
6, 9, and 12 wt pct Ga. Increased Ga concentration promoted duplex microstructure formation with the ferritic phase having
a nearly identical composition to the austenitic phase. Room-temperature tests indicated that small additions of Ga (less
than 3 wt pct) were beneficial to the mechanical behavior of 304 L SS but that 12 wt pct Ga resulted in a 95 pct loss in ductility.
Small additions of Ga are beneficial to the cracking resistance of stainless steel. Elastic-plastic fracture mechanics analysis
indicated that 3 wt pct Ga alloys showed the greatest resistance to crack initiation and propagation as measured by fatigue
crack growth rate, fracture toughness, and tearing modulus. The 12 wt pct Ga alloys were least resistant to crack initiation
and propagation and these alloys primarily failed by transgranular cleavage. It is hypothesized that Ga metal embrittlement
is partially responsible for increased embrittlement. 相似文献

Analytical transmission electron microscopy and thermal analysis of as-extruded Al-4.7 pct Zn-2.5 pct Mg-0.2 pct Zr-X wt pct Mn alloys, with Mn contents ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 wt pct, were carried out to elucidate the microstructural change
and accompanying mechanical properties during subsequent heat treatments. The as-extruded alloy was fabricated from rapidly
solidified powder and consisted of a fine, metastable manganese dispersoid and the ternary eutectic T phase (Al2Mg3Zn3). Solution heat treatment resulted in the formation of the stable Al6Mn phase and complete dissolution of the T phase. Formation of stable Al6Mn was made by two routes: by phase transition from metastable Mn dispersoids which already existed, and from the supersaturated
solid solution by homogeneous nucleation. The density of the Al6Mn phase increased with the addition of manganese, while the shape and average size remained unchanged. A significant increase
in the hardness was observed to coincide with the formation of the Al6Mn phase. Similarly, the tensile strength increased further after the aging treatment, and the increment was constant over
the content of Mn in the alloy, which was explained by the contribution from the same amount of precipitates, MgZn2. Results of thermal analysis indicated that the dissolution of the T phase started near 180 °C and that formation of Al6Mn occurred at about 400 °C, suggesting that further enhancement of strength is possible with the modification of the heat-treatment
schedule. 相似文献

We proposed a new method for developing Ni-base turbine disc alloy for application at temperatures above 700 °C by mixing
a Ni-base superalloy U720LI with a two-phase alloy Co-16.9 wt pct Ti in various contents. The microstructure and phase stability
of the alloys were analyzed using an optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and
an X-ray diffractometer. The yield strength was studied by compression tests at temperatures ranging from 25 °C to 1200 °C.
The results show that all the alloys had a dendritic structure. Ni3Ti (η) phase was formed in the interdendritic region in the alloys with the addition of Co-16.9 wt pct Ti, and its volume fraction
increased with the increase in the addition of Co-16.9 wt pct Ti. The results of exposure at 750 °C show that the addition
of Co-16.9 wt pct Ti to U720LI had a great effect on suppressing the formation of σ phase due to the reduced Cr content in the γ matrix. Compared to U720LI, the alloys with the addition of Co-16.9 wt pct Ti possessed higher yield strength. The solid-solution
strengthening of γ and γ′ and higher volume fraction of γ′ were assumed to cause this strength increase. 相似文献

The effect of Co addition has been studied in Fe-30Mn-6Si-xCo (x = 0 to 9 wt pct) shape memory alloys in terms of their microstructure, martensitic transformation and shape recovery. Microstructural investigations reveal that in Fe-Mn-Si-Co alloys, the microstructure remains single-phase austenite (??) up to 5 pct Co and beyond that becomes two-phase comprising ?? and off-stoichiometric (Fe,Co)5Mn3Si2 intermetallic ??-phases. The forward ??-?? martensite transformation start temperature (M S) decreases with the addition of Co up to 5 pct, and alloys containing more than 5 pct Co, show slightly higher M S possibly on account of two-phase microstructure. Unlike M S, the ??-?? reverse transformation start temperature (A S) has been found to remain almost unaltered by Co addition. In general, addition of Co to Fe-Mn-Si alloys deteriorates shape recovery due to decreasing resistance to plastic yielding concomitant with the formation of stress induced ?? martensite. However, there is an improvement in shape recovery beyond 5 pct Co addition, possibly due to the strengthening effect arising from the presence of (Fe,Co)5Mn3Si2 precipitates within the two-phase microstructure and due to higher amount of stress induced ?? martensite. 相似文献

This article describes the creep and microstructure of Mg-Al-Ca-based magnesium alloys (designated as ACX alloys, where A
stands for aluminum; C for calcium; and X for strontium or silicon) developed for automotive powertrain applications. Important
creep parameters, i.e., secondary creep rate and creep strength, for the new alloys are reported. Creep properties of the new alloys are significantly
better than those of the AE42 (Mg-4 pct* Al-2 pct RE**) alloy, which is the benchmark creep-resistant magnesium die-casting
alloy. Creep mechanisms for different temperature/stress regimes are proposed. A ternary intermetallic phase, (Mg,Al)2Ca, was identified in the microstructure of the ACX alloys and is proposed to be responsible for the improved creep resistance
of the alloys.
All concentrations in wt. pct, unless otherwise stated.
RE stands for a combination of rare earth elements, i.e., misch metal, in this case. 相似文献

Two Al-rich Al-Ta alloys containing by weight 3 and 6 pct Ta have been rapidly solidified from the melt using the ‘gun’ technique.
The microstructures and the crystal structures of the phases in the as-solidified as well as those formed on subsequent decomposition
of the supersaturated solid solution have been characterized. A supersaturated solid solution was obtained in both the alloys
in the as-solidified condition indicating a solid solubility extension of Ta in Al to almost 6 wt pct. The supersaturated
solid solutions formed in both the alloys have been found to be quite stable up to 673 K (for 1 hour). Annealing at higher
temperatures resulted in the formation of rod-shaped precipitates inside the grains and massive precipitates along grain boundaries.
The rod-shaped precipitates arranged in a regular pattern constitute a new metastable intermediate phase Al7Ta having an ordered structure. The massive precipitates which form along grain boundaries constitute the equilibrium Al3Ta phase with a tetragonal crystal structure. The transformation behavior and the morphology of the transformation products
are detailed in this paper. 相似文献
