Abstract: | It has been recognized generally that the spray-deposited process is an innovative technique of rapid solidification. In this
paper, Al-20Si-5Fe-3Mn-3Cu-1Mg alloy was synthesized by the spray atomization and deposition technique. The microstructure
and mechanical properties of the spray-deposited alloy were studied using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy,
transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and tensile tests. It is observed that the microstructure of spray-deposited Al-20Si-5Fe-3Mn-3Cu-1Mg
alloy is composed of the α-Al,Si and the particle-like Al15(FeMn)3Si2 compounds. The aging process of the alloy was investigated by microhardness measurement, differential scanning calorimetry
analysis, and TEM observations. The results indicate that the two types of precipitates, S-Al2CuMg and σ-Al5Cu6Mg2 precipitate from matrix and improve the tensile strength of the alloy efficiently at both the ambient and elevated temperatures
(300 °C). |
