脉冲电流对ZK60镁合金板组织与性能的影响

利用光学显微镜(OM)、电子背散射衍射(EBSD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对ZK60镁合金板组织与性能进行分析。利用高密度脉冲电流对轧制变形ZK60镁合金板进行处理,使变形组织在较短时间内发生完全再结晶。再结晶晶粒的平均晶粒尺寸达到3μm,抗拉强度可达310 MPa,伸长率达30.7%。然而,经过同样时间的等效热处理,变形ZK60板并未发生完全再结晶。脉冲电流提高了轧制变形ZK60镁合金再结晶形核速率,加速了再结晶转变过程。脉冲处理优化了ZK60镁合金组织,使其获得了较高的综合力学性能。     

Effect of high-density current electropulsing on corrosion cracking of titanium aluminide intermetallic

The effect of electropulsing on the corrosion cracking of titanium aluminide produced by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis has been investigated. The electropulsing treatment led to improved corrosion resistance in sodium fluoride solution and also eliminated corrosion cracking at the α₂/γ interface during corrosion in a solution of nitric and hydrofluoric acids. This behavior was attributed to thermal and athermal effects resulting from electropulsing and leading to the interaction of conduction electrons with the defect structure. The effect of magnetic field accompanying electropusling on depinning of dislocations also has been discussed. Support for this is provided on the basis of X-ray diffraction analysis and microhardness testing.     

Surface modification of D36 steel by ultrasonic impact with electropulsing

ABSTRACT

The present work investigated the effect of ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) assisted with electropulsing (EP) on the microstructure of D36 low-carbon steel. Optical microscope and scanning electron microscope were employed to reveal the microstructural evolution of the specimen subjected to the treatment. In comparison with UIT solely, a higher hardness on the superficial layer was obtained by EP-UIT and the fracture on treated surface was avoided effectively which meant a better plasticity. The electron back scatter diffraction analysis indicated a high density of low-angle boundary network owing to the large strain introduced. The distinguishing features of EP-UIT were ascribed to the athermal effect of drifting electrons which facilitate the mobilising of dislocations in the deformation.

电脉冲对9SiCr钢超声滚压表面性能的影响

目的 提高9SiCr钢表面硬度、光洁度,获得更好的表面质量。方法 对9SiCr钢棒状试样进行车削加工,然后分别进行不同参数下的超声滚压(USRP)和高能电脉冲辅助超声滚压(EP-USRP)加工。通过表面粗糙度测试、微观形貌分析、表层显微维氏硬度测试,分别评价不同加工状态试样的表面粗糙度、表面形貌、表层一定深度内的硬度梯度分布,并通过光学显微镜和扫描电子显微镜对试样表层形貌进行分析。结果 车削后试样的表面粗糙度为0.45 μm,经施加压力为1 000 N的USRP加工后,试样表面粗糙度为0.043 μm,对试样进行EP-USRP加工,当均方根电流密度为0.71 A/mm²时,表面粗糙度降至0.032 μm,比单纯USRP加工后试样的表面粗糙度降低了25.6%。经车削后,试样的显微维氏硬度约为550HV,经施加压力为800 N的USRP加工后,试样表层硬度为590HV。当对试样施加均方根电流密度为0.71 A/mm²的EP-USRP处理后,其硬度为612HV,比USRP加工后的硬度增加了3.8%。从硬化层深度来看,经USRP加工后试样径向表层到心部大概有300 μm得到硬化,而经EP-USRP加工后硬化层的深度可以增至400 μm。从微观形貌分析可以看出,试样表层具有一定深度的细晶层,随着加工状态的不同,晶粒大小和细晶层深度也不同。结论 采用USRP、EP-USRP加工都可以在一定程度上提高9SiCr钢的表面质量,电脉冲可以提高USRP加工的效果,进一步提高表面质量。

Effects of High Density Electropulsing Treatment on Aging Kinetics of GH4199 Alloy

GH4199 alloy was treated by high density electropulsing for different time, and the microstructure evolution and tensile properties were examined. The results show that the diffusion of solute atoms in GH4199 alloy can be strongly accelerated by electropulsing. The growth activation energy of γ′ phase of 89.86 kJ/mol in the alloy electropulsing-treated, decreases by 64.31 % compared with that normally aged, which accelerates the precipitation and the growth of both the γ′ phase and carbides on the grain boundary of the alloy. The strength of GH4199 alloy increases with increasing of electropulsing treatment time, and the plasticity has no obvious change. The growth of γ′ phase and the precipitation of carbides on the grain boundary is the main reason for obstructing the dislocation motion and improving the plastic deformation resistance of the alloy. The piled-up dislocations can go through the grain boundary across the gap of carbides which is distributed on the grain boundary in chainlike form, and no degradation of the plasticity of GH4199 alloy appears.

Microstructure and formability of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet under continuous pulse current

Utilising electropulsing treatment (EPT) to improve the formability of metals is of paramount importance for engineering applications. The effects of EPT on the microstructure and formability of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet were investigated. The results indicated that the microstructure and mechanical properties were slightly improved with the increase of current density, while the formability was promoted distinctly. Besides, the formability of the specimen after EPT was better than that of the specimen annealed at the same temperature, which indicated that pulse current can effectively increase the formability of the sheet. Further studies confirmed that the athermal effect caused by the pulse current made great contribution to the dislocation mobility and improved the formability of the sheet.
