文摘It is of great significance to study the corrosion process of aluminum(Al)alloys fasteners in order to mitigate corrosion for their widespread applications.In this paper,a method for enhancing the corrosion resistance of Al alloy fasteners is proposed.7075 Al alloy parts with a fine-grained microstructure were prepared by pre-heat treatment(PHT),combined subsequent equal channel angular pressing(ECAP)and cold upsetting(CU).The corrosion behavior of the specimens was investigated by intergranular corrosion and electrochemical test.Microstructure investigations were carried out by field emission scanning electron microscopy,energy dispersive spectrometer and transmission electron microscopy.The relationship between microstructural evolution and corrosion resistance changes was also explored.The results show that both PHT and ECAP-CU significantly improved the corrosion resistance of the samples and modified the corrosion process.The open circuit potential,corrosion current density and corrosion rate of the alloy on electrochemical test were(-0.812±8.854)×10^(-5) V(vs.SCE),(6.379±0.025)×10^(-6) A/cm^(2) and 0.066 mm/year,respectively,and the intergranular corrosion depth was(557±8)μm.The main factor controlling the corrosion behavior was the microstructure evolution.After PHT,the disappearance of the dendritic structure and the dissolution of the nonequilibrium second phase eliminated the potential difference between the phases,reducing the free energy in the as cast state.When ECAP-CU was used after PHT,the grain refinement was accompanied by a high density of grain boundaries and dislocations,which led to the formation of a denser passivation film on the alloy surface,improving the corrosion resistance in an aggressive environment.

文摘In this work,ultrasonic energy field assistance combined with tempering treatment is proposed to improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of A517Q alloy steel fabricated by laser directed energy deposition(LDED).The effects of ultrasonic vibration(UV)and tempering treatment on microstructure evolution,microhardness distribution and mechanical properties of deposition layer were studied in detail.The microstructure of UV assisted LDED sample after tempering is mainly composed of tempered sorbite(TS).Due to the improvement of microstructure inhomogeneity and grains refinement,UV assisted LDED sample with tempering treatment obtains excellent mechanical properties.The ultimate tensile strength(UTS),yield strength(YS)and elongation after breaking(EL)reach 765 MPa,657 MPa and 19.5%,the increase ratios of UTS and YS are 14.5%and 33.8%while maintaining plasticity compared to original LDED sample,respectively.It is obvious that ultrasonic vibration combined with tempering is a potential and effective method to obtain uniform microstructure and excellent mechanical properties in metal laser directed energy deposition field.

文摘High-entropy alloy composites(HEACs)have attracted significant attention due to their exceptional mechanical properties and chemical stability.By adjusting the content of reinforcing particles in the high-entropy alloy and by employing advanced additive manufacturing techniques,high-performance HEACs can be fabricated.However,there is still considerable room for improvement in their performance.In this study,CoCrFeMnNi HEA powders were used as the matrix,and NiCoFeAlTi high-entropy intermetallic powders were used as the high-entropy reinforcement(HER).CoCrFeMnNi/NiCoFeAlTi HEACs were fabricated using selective laser melting technology.The study results indicate that after aging,the microstructure of HEACs with HER exhibits Al-and Ti-rich nano-oxide precipitates with an orthorhombic CMCM type structure system.After aging at 873 K for 2 h,HEACs with HER achieved excellent overall mechanical properties,with an ultimate tensile strength of 731 MPa.This is attributed to the combined and synergistic effects of precipitation strengthening,dislocation strengthening,and the high lattice distortion caused by high intragranular defects,which provide a multi-scale strengthening and hardening mechanism for the plastic deformation of HEACs with HER.This study demonstrates that aging plays a crucial role in controlling the precipitate phases in complex multi-element alloys.

文摘The effect of forging on the microstructure and texture evolution of a high Nb containing Ti-45Al-7Nb-0.3W(at.%)alloy was investigated by X-ray diffractometer(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).The results show that the as-cast alloy is mainly composed of α_(2)/γ lamellar colonies with a mean size of 70μm,but the hot-forged pancake displays a near duplex microstructure(DP).Kinking and bending of lamellar colonies,deformation twinning and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)occur during hot forging.Meanwhile,dense dislocations in theβphase after forging suggest that the high-temperature β phase with a disordered structure is favorable for improving the hot-workability of the alloy.Unlike the common TiAl casting texture,the solidification process of the investigated as-cast alloy with high Nb content is completely via the β phase region,resulting in the formation of a<110>γ fiber texture where the<110>γ aligns parallel to the heat-flow direction.In comparison,the relatively strong<001>and weak<302>texture components in the as-forged alloy are attributed to the deformation twinning.After annealing,static recrystallization occurs at the twin boundary and intersections,which weakens the deformation texture.

文摘A reasonable heat treatment process for TC4 ELI titanium alloy is crucial to tune microstructures to improve its explosion resistance.However,there is limited investigation on tuning microstructures of TC4 ELI to improve explosion resistance.Moreover,the current challenge is quantifying microstructural changes'effects on explosion resistance and incorporating microstructural changes into finite element models.This work aims to tune microstructures to improve explosion resistance and elucidate their anti-explosion mechanism,and find a suitable method to incorporate microstructural changes into finite element models.In this work,we systematically study the deformation and failure characteristics of TC4 ELI plates with varying microstructures using an air explosion test and LS-DYNA finite element modeling.The Johnson-Cook(JC)constitutive parameters are used to quantify the effects of microstructural changes on explosion resistance and incorporate microstructural changes into finite element models.Because of the heat treatment,one plate has equiaxed microstructure and the other has bimodal microstructure.The convex of the plate after the explosion has a quadratic relationship with the charge mass,and the simulation results demonstrate high reliability,with the error less than 17.5%.Therefore,it is feasible to obtain corresponding JC constitutive parameters based on the differences in microstructures and mechanical properties and characterize the effects of microstructural changes on explosion resistance.The bimodal target exhibits excellent deformation resistance.The response of bimodal microstructure to the shock wave may be more intense under explosive loading.The well-coordinated structure of the bimodal target enhances its resistance to deformation.

文摘The evolution of mechanical properties,localized corrosion resistance of a high purity Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy during non-isothermal aging(NIA)was investigated by hardness test,electrical conductivity test,tensile test,intergranular corrosion test,exfoliation corrosion test,slow strain rate tensile test and electrochemical test,and the mechanism has been discussed based on microstructure examination by optical microscopy,electron back scattered diffraction,scanning electron microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy.The NIA treatment includes a heating stage from 40℃to 180℃with a rate of 20℃/h and a cooling stage from 180℃to 40℃with a rate of 10℃/h.The results show that the hardness and strength increase rapidly during the heating stage of NIA since the increasing temperature favors the nucleation and the growth of strengthening precipitates and promotes the transformation of Guinier-Preston(GPI)zones toη'phase.During the cooling stage,the sizes ofη'phase increase with a little change in the number density,leading to a further slight increase of the hardness and strength.As NIA proceeds,the corroded morphology in the alloy changes from a layering feature to a wavy feature,the maximum corrosion depth decreases,and the reason has been analyzed based on the microstructural and microchemical feature of precipitates at grain boundaries and subgrain boundaries.
文摘The effect of Ti addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of Zn-22Al eutectoid alloy with 0.15 wt%Ti was investigated.It was observed that the presence of Ti changes the morphology of n phase in the alloy.Addition of Ti to Zn-Al alloy caused the formation of Ti(Zn,Al)_(3);phase.Before applying equal channel angular pressing(ECAP),two times of homogenization treatment were conducted on the alloy.After secondary homogenization,the microstructure consisted of a homogeneous and fine mixture ofαand n phases and the as-cast lamellar structure removed.After homogenization,ECAP was carried out on Ti-containing Zn-22Al alloy.The fraction of high angle grain boundaries increased with increasing the number of ECAP passes.The average grain size reduced from 930 nm after secondary homogenization to 380 nm after 8 passes of ECAP.The texture of the alloy also changed by applying ECAP.Maximum elongation to failure of the homogenized alloy was 135%at a strain rate of 10^(-5)s^(-1)which enhanced to a maximum of 405%at a strain rate of 10^(-3)s^(-1)after 8 passes of ECAP.It was also observed that by conducting ECAP and increasing the number of passes the hardness decreases,which indicates work-softening behavior due to dynamic recovery/recrystallization.

文摘In this study,the Mg-3Zn-0.5Zr-χNd(χ=0,0.6)alloys were subjected to final rolling treatment with large deformation of 50%.The impact of annealing temperatures on the microstructure and mechanical properties was investigated.The rolled Mg-3Zn-0.5Zr-0.6Nd alloy exhibited an ultimate tensile strength of 386 MPa,a yield strength of 361 MPa,and an elongation of 7.1%.Annealing at different temperatures resulted in reduced strength and obviously increased elongation for both alloys.Optimal mechanical properties for the Mg-3Zn-0.5Zr-0.6Nd alloy were achieved after annealing at 200℃,with an ultimate tensile strength of 287 MPa,a yield strength of 235 MPa,and an elongation of 26.1%.The numerous deformed microstructures,twins,and precipitated phases in the rolled alloy could impede the deformation at room temperature and increase the work hardening rate.After annealing,a decrease in the work hardening effect and an increase in the dynamic recovery effect were obtained due to the formation of fine equiaxed grains,and the increased volume fraction of precipitated phases,which significantly improved the elongation of the alloy.Additionally,the addition of Nd element could enhance the annealing recrystallization rate,reduce the Schmid factor difference between basal and prismatic slip systems,facilitate multi-system slip initiation and improve the alloy plasticity.

文摘In this study,the cooling rate was manipulated by quenching with water of different temperatures(30,60 and 100℃).Surface and internal residual stresses in the quenched 6061 aluminum alloy samples were measured using hole-drilling and crack compliance methods,respectively.Then,the processability of the quenched samples was evaluated at cryogenic temperatures.The mechanical properties of the as-aged samples were assessed,and microstructure evolution was analyzed.The surface residual stresses of samples W30℃,W60℃and W100℃is−178.7,−161.7 and−117.2 MPa,respectively along x-direction,respectively;and−191.2,−172.1 and−126.2 MPa,respectively along y-direction.The sample quenched in boiling water displaying the lowest residual stress(~34%and~60%reduction in the surface and core).The generation and distribution of quenching residual stress could be attributed to the lattice distortion gradient.Desirable plasticity was also exhibited in the samples with relatively low quenching cooling rates at cryogenic temperatures.The strengthes of the as-aged samples are 291.2 to 270.1 MPa as the quenching water temperature increase from 30℃to 100℃.Fine and homogeneous β"phases were observed in the as-aged sample quenched with boiling water due to the clusters and Guinier-Preston zones(GP zones)premature precipitated during quenching process.

文摘Wire-arc additive manufacture(WAAM)has great potential for manufacturing of Al-Cu components.However,inferior mechanical properties of WAAM deposited material restrict its industrial application.Inter-layer cold rolling and thermo-mechanical heat treatment(T8)with pre-stretching deformation between solution and aging treatment were adopted in this study.Their effects on hardness,mechanical properties and microstructure were analyzed and compared to the conventional heat treatment(T6).The results show that cold rolling increases the hardness and strengths,which further increase with T8 treatment.The ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 513 MPa and yield stress(YS)of 413 MPa can be obtained in the inter-layer cold-rolled sample with T8 treatment,which is much higher than that in the as-deposited samples.The cold-rolled samples show higher elongation than that of as-deposited ones due to significant elimination of porosity in cold rolling;while both the T6 and T8 treatments decrease the elongation.The cold rolling and pre-stretching deformation both contribute to the formation of dense and dispersive precipitatedθ′phases,which inhibits the dislocation movement and enhances the strengths;as a result,T8 treatment shows better strengthening effect than the T6 treatment.The strengthening mechanism was analyzed and it was mainly related to work hardening and precipitation strengthening.

文摘The modification behavior of different Er contents on the microstructures and properties of as-cast 8030 aluminum alloy was investigated by optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),hardness test,electrical conductivity test and tensile property test.The results show that the addition of Er can refine the grains of as-cast alloy,which mainly promotes the nucleation ofα-Al by causing constitutional supercooling and forming the Al 3 Er nanoparticles as a heterogeneous nucleation core.Er can change the morphology of Al-Al_(6) Fe eutectic structure of the alloy,furthermore,Er can adsorb on the surface of the Al_(6) Fe phase to refine the Al_(6) Fe phase in eutectic structure.Er can improve the tensile properties,especially the elongation of as-cast 8030 aluminum alloy,which is attributed to the modification of Al-Al_(6) Fe eutectic and Al_(6) Fe phase.

文摘In this study,specific warm rolling was carried out to process the Fe_(50)Mn_(30)Co_(10)Cr_(10) high-entropy alloy.The aim was to investigate the effect of warm rolling temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties.The results indicated that serious transverse cracks appeared in the 25℃ rolled sheet with reduction of 60%,which was significantly improved through 100−300℃ warm rolling.In addition,the increase of rolling temperature promoted dislocation slip and inhibited martensitic transformation and twinning deformation.A single face centered cubic(FCC)matrix with abundant dislocations and stacking faults was developed in the 300℃rolled microstructure.Meanwhile,the deformation stored energy gradually increased,and the copper-type deformation texture was gradually enhanced.After annealing,the recrystallized microstructure of 25−200℃ rolled sheets was composed of FCC and a small amount of HCP phase.However,the hexagonal close packed(HCP)content in the annealed sheet rolled at 300℃ was as high as 20%−23% after annealing for 2−4 min and decreased to 4.5%after annealing for 8 min.All recrystallized microstructure contained a large number of annealing twins,and the average grain size increased with the increase of rolling temperature.Moreover,the mechanical properties of the annealed sheet were significantly improved after warm rolling.
