Effect of Ti-Al on microstructures and mechanical properties of plasma arc in-situ welded joint of SiCp/Al MMCs

The effect of Ti-Al on microstructures and mechanical properties of SiCp/Al MMC joints produced by plasma arc in-situ weld-alloying was investigated, in which argon-nitrogen mixture was used as plasma gases and Ti-Al alloy as filling composite. The results show that the formation of needle-like harmful phase Al4C3 is effectively prevented in the weld by in-situ weld-alloying/plasma arc welding with Ti-Al alloy sheet filler whose titanium content is more than 20%. The fluidity of molten pool is improved, and stable molten pool is gained for the addition of the Ti-Al alloy. The mechanical properties of welded joint are effectively enhanced by the compact-grain structure and the new reinforced composites such as Al3Ti, TiN, AlN and TiC welded joint. The test results of mechanical property show that the maximum tensile strength of welded joint gained by adding Ti-60Al alloy is up to 235 MPa. The factors influencing the tensile strength were also investigated.

An experimental study on deformation behavior below 0.2% offset yield stress in some SiCp/Al composites and their unreinforced matrix alloys

The deformation behaviors below 0.2% offset yield stress in some silicon carbide particulate reinforced aluminum composites (SiCp/Al) and their unreinforced matrix alloys were investigated experimentally in this work. The results of the study showed that incorporation of SiC particulate into aluminum matrix can enhance the plastic flow stress (PFS) in macroplastic stage but slightly lower PFS in microplastic stage. With increase in the volume fraction of SiC particulate (V_p), the 0.2% offset yield stress (σ_0.2) increases while the resistance to microplastic deformation (σ_10⁻⁵) first decreases and then increases. The composite with smaller particle size presents higher PFS both in micro- and macro-plastic stages. It was also found that heat treatment remarkably influence both micro- and macro-plastic behaviors of the composites. Quenching followed by artificial aging can significantly enhance PFS both in micro- and macro-plastic stages for the age hardened alloy based composites (SiCp/2024Al) but has no obvious effect for the non-age hardened alloy based composites (SiCp/Al). For both the SiCp/2024Al composite and unreinforced 2024Al alloy, PFS exist a ‘peak value’ with variation of aging time, implying that like the conventional yield strength, PFS in microplastic stage of the composite is also strongly controlled by the precipitates formed in matrix during aging treatment. The effects of thermal cycling on PFS are dependent to the V_p. In large V_p case (35%), with increase in cyclic number PFS slightly decreases but in small V_p case (15%) PFS slightly increases as the cyclic number increases. The PFS in microplastic stage is very sensitive to the microstructure features. The lower residual thermal stresses, small density of moveable dislocations and harder matrix would be beneficial to the increase of PFS in microplastic stage in the composites.
