摘要:Magnesium/aluminum laminated composites were fabricated by diffusion bonding method,and interfacial characteristics were measured by nano-indentation to know how to improve the interfacial properties of heat treated composites.The results reveal that laminated composites with desirable bonding can be prepared by the diffusion bonding with three sets of processing parameters,including 400 ℃/30 MPa/10 min,400 ℃ /40 MPa/10 min,400 ℃/30 MPa/20 min,however,the diffusion layer is not visible in the condiions of 400 ℃/30 MPa/10 min.Diffusion layer thickness of the composites can be remarkably increased with heat treatment,and nano-hardness of diffusion zone is 3 times higher than that of the matrix,and the Young’s modulus is located in the range of that of magnesium alloy and aluminum alloy.

摘要:The effects of minor Ag addition on the heat-resistant properties of Al-5.3Cu-0.8Mg-0.5Mn-0.5(Zr+Ti)alloy have been investigated by tensile testing and transmission electromicroscope(TEM).It is revealed that the ambient strength and heat-resistant properties of the alloy can be improved greatly as a result of changing the aging process of the alloy with Ag addition.The strengthening precipitates in the alloy containing Ag is composed of coherent laminate Ω phase and a small amount of θ’ phase with peak aging at 185 ℃.Strengthening mechanism of minor Ag addition is attributed to the precipitating hardening of Ω phase,and the improvement of heat-resistant properties of the alloy is a result of higher thermal stability of Ω phase than that of θ’ phase.
摘要:Effects of hydrogen content in liquid magnesium,sample thickness and degassing ways on micro-porosity in magnesium alloy have been investigated by quantitative hydrogen-measuring and quantitative metalography methods.The results show that micro-porosity in the magnesium alloy in the condition of the flux covering is more than that of the ones in the condition of inertial gas protection.With increasing in parts thickness,the micro-porosity in the magnesium alloy parts is increased with the same hydrogen content.Micro-porosity in the magnesium alloy can be reduced remarkably after Ar-degassing with flux protection,which obviously improves the tensile strength by 25% and the elongation by 50% compared with the parts without Ar-degassing treatment.

摘要:Thermal deformation behavior of 6063 aluminum alloy produced with fine grain aluminum ingot at a high temperature has been observed with Gleeble 1 500 dynamic materials test machine.The results reveal that the deformed 6063 aluminum alloy has higher aging hardness with solid solution plus homogenized treatment at 250 ℃ for three hours due to reducing rheological stress.Low temperature and slow-speed deformation can decrease the rheological stress of the treated alloy sample,however,it can be harmful for the dissolution of Mg2Si phase,which obviously affects the aging hardness of the deformed alloy.The rheological stress of the deformed alloy can be increased with the increase of Mg2Si phase in the sample with the same homogenized treatment.The effects of refining ways and variation of Ti content in the deformed alloy on thermal deformation behavior can be ignored.
摘要:Mg 65 Cu 22 Zn3Y5Nd5 bulky amorphous alloy was prepared in a traditional Cu mould in atmosphere condition.The structure,glass transition,crystallization and melting behavior of the amorphous alloy were investigated by XRD(X-ray diffusion)and DSC(differential scanning calorimetry.The results show that amorphous alloy strip with maximum 4.5 mm in thickness can be obtained with △Tx(undercooling liquid zone temperature)of 51.3 K and T rg(approximately glass transition temperature)of 0.59.Mg 65 Cu 22 Zn3Y5Nd5 bulky amorphous alloy exhibits a more complex crystallization process,which performed through three steps,compared with the alloy free Zn.With the isothemal treatment,the Mg 65 Cu 22 Zn3Y5Nd5 bulky amorphous alloy is converted from amorphous alloy into the crystal state where the sharp crystal peaks superimpose on the simple amorphous peak.The structure of the alloy becomes more homogeneous and finer with annealing step by step.

摘要:A finite element model has been established to simulate the influence of thermo-properties of mould on temperature distribution in powder,punch and die during electric current sintering.Simulated results indicate that the thermo-properties of the die have great effects on temperature distribution during electric current sintering.Compared with using conventional graphite material as die,ceramic materials with high electric resistance and low heat conductivity can significantly improve the temperature-increment rate and completed-sintering temperature of the powder in case of the same sintering parameters,but can result in the obvious temperature-gradient effects.The experiment for electric current sintering pure Ti is accordant with simulated ones.

摘要:By using self-developed wave-like sloping plate,semi-solid billets with sound microstructure and excellent thixoforming property have been prepared in the condition of the cooled sloping plate.While the sloping plate was heated,semi-solid slurry with good microstructure has been prepared.During preparing semi-solid alloy by using wave-like sloping plate,the co-action of the exploration of nucleation in the whole melt with the dendrite broken results in the formation of fine spherical microstructures in the semi-solid alloy,and casting temperature,cooling rate,sloping angle and the materials of the sloping plate are dominant in the formation of microstructure of semi-solid alloy.The pouring temperature ranges of preparing semi-solid billets for AlMg3 and AlSi6Mg2 are 660690 ℃ and 660680 ℃,respectively.AlSi6Mg2 semi-solid slurry with good microstructure can be prepared with pre-heating temperature at 300 ℃ for sloping plate and pouring at 680 ℃.
摘要:Electrolytic Al-Si alloy(EASA)is characterized by self-modified structure in the castings,where Si particles and iron or Ti-bearing phase exhibit fine structure with a large amount of primary aluminum dendrite.The structure in self-modified state is relatively insensitive to cooling rate during solidification process,and is inherited upon repeated remelting,exhibiting excellent toughness and plasticity.Self-modification in EASA is attributed to the occurrence of a severe undercooling during solidification,which is related with the formation of homogeneous melt and the electric current in electrolysis process.

摘要:Highly polymerized compound pattern-materials in SLS pattern is un-favorable for dewaxing and easily generating entrapped-slag in the investment castings due to high melting point and high viscosity.The pattern-materials properties in SLS pattern has been investigated,including melt viscosity temperature of 160180 ℃,100 Pa s melt viscosity temperature of 230 ℃,initial decomposed temperature of 310.48 ℃ and fully decomposed temperature of 476 ℃ as well as ash content of 0.307%.Based on the pattern-materials properties,the process of designed shell-making and dewaxing is as follows:majority wax-materials is removed at about 250280 ℃,then the residuals are burned off at 500700 ℃.The sequence of dewaxing should be considered in the practice due to the pattern always assembled with simple parts and gating system with low melting point wax and SLS wax.The low melting point wax pattern is firstly dewaxed at a lower temperature,then SLS pattern is dewaxed at a higher temperature.Entrapped-slag in the investment castings can be eliminated by setting exhausted riser and exhausted-slag riser in concave and slag-collection position of pattern to fully remove wax based on analysis of origination of entrapped-slag in SLS pattern complex parts.Exhausted pipe in the car and large stainless steel pump wheel in investment casting have been successfully produced by using above-mentioned technology,realizing desirable effects.
摘要:The precision steel castings were produced with nitrogen(N2)or propane gas(C3H8)filling the shell mold before and after pouring liquid steel in case of sand-free.The microstructure was observed and the micro-hardness of the castings was measured on a type HXD-1000 micro-hardometer.The reason resulting in the relief of surface decarborization in the precision steel castings has been approached with protection gas.The results show that although both the N2 and C3H8 can effectively relieve or prevent surface decarborization in precision steel castings,C3H8 exhibits better prevention-decarborization effects.Surface decarborization in precision steel castings can be effectively eliminated as a result of removing the air in the shell mold.

摘要:Effects of content and morphology of iron phase in eutectic Al-Si alloy have been investigated by optical microscope(OM),universal material testing machine and XRD(X-ray diffusion).The composition and microstructure of iron phase and the distribution of iron element in the alloy have been observed by SEM and energy spectrum analysis.The experimental results reveal that with the increase of Fe content,the tensile strength and elongation of the alloy are decreased gradually,in which the tensile strength and elongation are sharply descended with about 1% Fe content.The tensile strength of the alloy containing high Fe content can be improved by 180% with adding Mn to a given Fe/Mn ratio,which is contributed to the transformation of needle-like Fe phase from bulky and Chinese script Fe phase.
