Rheologic behaviors of A356 aluminum alloy billet produced by semisolid continuous casting process

The experiments for rheologic behaviors of semisolid continuous casting billets of A356 alloy in semisolid state had been carried out with a multifunctional rheometer. The results show that the deformation rate increases with loading time, the maximum strain reaches to 120％ (which is one time larger than that of traditional mold casting billet) and the strain can be rapidly eliminated to 10％ after unloading. Moreover, there is a critic stress for billet deformation even in semisolid state, which is named as critic shear stress. This stress increases with the decreasing of heating time. The theologic behaviors can be expressed by five elements mechanical model (H_2- [N_1|H_2]-[N_2|S]) and can be modified with the increasing of heating time.

Effect of pre-annealing on thermal stability of amorphous Zr-Cu-Ni alloy

The influence of pre-annealing on thermal stability of the amorphous Zr70Cu20Ni10 alloy was reported by em-ploying the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) tech-niques. It has been observed that the supercooled liquid region decreases with increasing the annealing time under isothe-mal conditions, indicating that the thermal stability of the amorphous Zr70Cu20Ni10 alloy decreases gradually. HRTEM ob-servations reveal that there exist some ordered atomic clusters in the amorphous matrix at the relaxation stage. These or-dered atomic clusters can be regarded as precursors for the precipitation of the crystalline phases in the subsequent crystal-lization process. The reasons resulting in the decrease in thermal stability of the amorphous Zr70Cu20Ni10 alloy with anneal-ing time are discussed through the Gaussian decomposition for the radial distribution function of the amorphous Zr70Cu20Ni10 alloy.
