Effect of an abrupt change in pulling rate on microstructures of directionally solidified Al2O3-Er3Al5O12 eutectic and off-eutectic composite ceramics

Directionally solidified microstructures of Al₂O₃-Er₃Al₅O₁₂ eutectic and off-eutectic in situ composite ceramics were explored under abrupt-change pulling rate conditions. Corresponding temperature distributions and interface locations were studied. In eutectic composition, fluctuation of eutectic spacing occurred when the pulling rate increased abruptly. A gradually increase or abrupt increase in eutectic spacing was observed when the pulling rate decreased abruptly. In hypoeutectic and hypereutectic compositions, formation of the primary phases were suppressed when the pulling rate increased abruptly from 10?µm/s to 100?µm/s, while primary phases precipitated when the pulling rate decreased abruptly from 100?µm/s to 10?µm/s. The interface altitude decreased after the pulling rate increased abruptly, but increased after the pulling rate decreased abruptly. The liquid composition restriction (around the eutectic composition) at the eutectic interface plays an important role in the suppression of the primary dendrite and coupled eutectic oxides can be obtained in off-eutectic compositions even under higher solidification rate conditions.     

Low cycle fatigue behavior of a eutectic 80Au/20Sn solder alloy

The eutectic 80Au/20Sn solder alloy is widely used in high power electronics and optoelectronics packaging. In this study, low cycle fatigue behavior of a eutectic 80Au/20Sn solder alloy is reported. The 80Au/20Sn solder shows a quasi-static fracture characteristic at high strain rates, and then gradually transforms from a transgranular fracture (dominated by fatigue damage) to intergranular fracture (dominated by creep damage) at low strain rates with increasing temperature. Coffin-Manson and Morrow models are proposed to evaluate the low cycle fatigue behavior of the 80Au/20Sn solder. Besides, the 80Au/20Sn solder has enhanced fatigue resistance compared to the 63Sn/37Pb solder.

Ionothermal synthesis of a three-dimensional zinc phosphate with DFT topology using unstable deep-eutectic solvent as template-delivery agent

A three-dimensional zinc phosphate compound with DFT topology, designated as ZnPO₄-EU1, has been synthesized by an ionothermal approach from the system HF-ZnO–P₂O₅-choline chloride-imidazolidone. Ethylenediamine, derived from decomposition of the imidazolidone component of the deep-eutectic solvent (DES) itself, is delivered to the synthesis and serves as an appropriate template for ZnPO₄-EU1. Experiments in which the synthesis conditions were varied showed that ZnPO₄-EU1 may be prepared over a wide molar ratio of P/Zn = 0.55–13.0. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns have been obtained at intervals to track the crystallization process of this material. The experimental data show that Zn₃(PO₄)₂ · 4H₂O (a dense phase) was first isolated from the DES after reaction for 1 h. Subsequently, the pure phase of ZnPO₄-EU1 was obtained with increasing crystallization time from 12 h to 72 h. The experimental results show that the nucleation and crystallization take place with relatively low levels of solvent degradation, demonstrating that zinc phosphate with a three-dimensional framework can be synthesized by in situ generation of an appropriate template using an unstable DES at high temperatures (150–200 °C).

针对W9Cr3M04V轧制成品材低倍碳化物剥落的形成原因分析，得出一次碳化物颗粒粗大、在1／4D至中心区域聚集是导致低倍热酸浸试验碳化物剥落的主因；由此进行冶炼过程中注速（锭形）、浇注温度选择对比工艺试验，得出在原有冶炼＋轧制的工艺基础上选用2．2t锭、降低浇注温度（1489℃）能有效改善一次碳化物颗粒大小和聚集程度，进而有效降低低倍碳化物剥落倾向。

研究了在250℃、不同挤压比下挤压变形对Mg95 Zn4.3 Y0.7合金组织及性能的影响。结果表明，Mg95 Zn4.3 Y0.7经过挤压变形后，合金中晶界处的共晶相破碎，弥散分布至晶粒内部，并且晶粒显著细化。同时，随着挤压比的增大，晶粒细化程度增加，合金的力学性能单调增加。当挤压比为16时，合金晶粒尺寸为5-8μm，抗拉强度为288.9MPa，显微硬度HV值为117.8。     

Ce对共晶Mg-Al合金组织的影响

模拟AZ9l镁合金半固态液相凝固后期的成分，分析了共晶成分镁铝合金添加不同含量的稀土元素Ce后，铸态显微结构的变化。结果表明：Ce的加入改变了合金的组织，增加了初晶α相的含量，细化了β相并减少了β相的含量。随着稀土Ce加入量的增加，在Ce的加入量为0．6％时，所得的组织最好；在Ce含量大于0．6％时，随着Ce加入量的增加，细化效果反而变差。     

对Al-Cu合金中α-Al及Al2Cu生长行为的探讨

研究了Al-Cu合金中α-Al和Al2Cu的生长行为,分析了初生α-Al及初生Al2Cu作为共晶核心形核的能力.结果发现,在过共晶组织中,初生相Al2Cu形貌大部分有明显的拐角,观察其平面有的呈矩形,呈现小面生长特性.而α-Al与Al2Cu共晶生长时,Al2Cu择优生长特征削弱,与α-Al耦合生长呈现非小面-非小面生长,表明Al2Cu在不同的生长阶段表现出的生长行为不同.在亚共晶组织中,初生相α-Al周围形成离异共晶的Al2Cu,而过共晶组织中初生相Al2Cu周围没有离异共晶的α-Al,表明初生相Al2Cu作为共晶层片核心的能力比初生相α-Al作为共晶层片核心的能力强.
