多级时效热处理对7056铝合金析出组织与耐蚀性的影响

利用透射电子显微镜(TEM)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、力学性能测试、电导率测试以及剥落腐蚀、慢应变速率拉伸应力腐蚀(SSRT)、Tafel循环极化曲线等手段研究多级时效热处理对7056铝合金析出组织及耐蚀性的影响。结果表明:过时效再时效热处理后溶质原子二次析出,晶内析出相体积分数增大,晶界析出相粗化断开,无沉淀析出带宽化。与120℃/24h相比,采用120℃/6h预时效工艺有利于晶内细小析出相回溶和粗大相长大。再时效热处理可提高过时效合金的强度和电导率,与峰时效和回归再时效相比,合金的抗拉强度损失不大,电导率明显提升。过时效再时效热处理后,合金晶界处连续阳极溶解被有效避免,抗剥落腐蚀和抗应力腐蚀性能增强。

Influence of multi-stage aging heat treatment on precipitation microstructure and corrosion resistance of 7056 aluminum alloy

The influence of different multi-stage aging heat treatment on microstructure and corrosion resistance of 7056 alloy was investigated by the measurements of transmission electron microscope(TEM), scanning electron microscope(SEM),mechanical properties and electrical conductivity, exfoliation corrosion, slow strain rate testing(SSRT), Tafel cyclic polarization. The results show that after over-aging and re-aging heat treatment, the solute atoms precipitate again, and the volume fraction of the precipitate in the matrix increases, the grain boundary precipitates coarsen and become discontinuous, the precipitate-free zone becomes wider. Compared with 120℃/24h pre-aging,120℃/6h has advantage in terms of dissolution of finer precipitates and the growth of large coarse phase. Re-aging heat treatment can improve the strength and conductivity of over-aging alloys;compared with peak aging and retrogression and re-aging, the loss of tensile strength of the alloy is not significant, while the conductivity increases obviously. After over-aging and re-aging heat treatment, continuous anodic dissolution is avoided effectively, and the exfoliation corrosion resistance and stress corrosion cracking is enhanced.
