摘要:Tungsten wire with 0.5 mm in diameter toughened Zr41Ti14Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 bulk amorphous composites were prepared by reverse infiltration technology. Effects of infiltrated temperature on interface and compression behavior of the composites were investigated. Interface of the composites exhibit the features of mechanical bonding, co-existence of mechanical bonding and metallurgical bonding and reactive bonding, respectively, at 1 000 K, 1 100 K and 1 200 K. The bonding strength is decreased with the lower infiltrated temperature, while interface reactive product can be formed with the higher infiltrated temperature as a result of W wire melting, which is harmful for the compression strength and deformation behavior of the composites. The Wf/Zr-based bulk amorphous composites with 2 409 MPa in maximum compressive strength and 19.5% in plastic deformation can be obtained with infiltrated temperature of 1100 K for 30 min.
摘要:New VAR process for preparing TB8 Ti alloy with high molybdenum content was presented. Firstly, commercial pure Mo powder was directly added into the alloy to prepare TB8 alloy ingot, and then based on using proper raw material and optimized VAR parameters, TB8 alloy ingot with high Mo content was prepared successfully. The alloy ingot was examined at different locations by composition testing and microstructure observation as well as XRD analysis. The results show that the alloy ingot exhibits homogeneous composition distribution, and the absence of inclusion and segregation of Mo element can be observed. The new VAR process is greatly superior to conventional process in raw material cost, quality cost and product cost.
摘要:Powder cladding diffusionalloying on the surface before and after nanocrystallined treatment of Mg-Gd series wrought magnesium alloy was carried out by vacuum high-temperature microwave oven. Microstructure features and structure refinement at different deformed zones on surface along thickness direction were observed by OM (optical microscope) and TEM (transmission electron microscope), and phase constituent in the alloyed layer at different microwave treatment conditions was analyzed by XRD (X-ray diffraction). The results show that microstructure and its structure in the deformed zone exhibit gradient distribution, and nano-crystalline with clear boundary and 1020 nm in diameters can be observed on surface of the Mg-Gd alloy specimens. Aluminized behavior on the nanocrystallined surface of Mg-Gd alloy is realized at 320 ℃ as a result of microwave induction greatly decreasing diffusion-alloying temperature. In addition, diffusion-alloy process is promoted due to high volumetric fraction grain boundary and severe distortion. At the same experimental conditions, thickness of alloyed layer on surface nanocrystallined Mg-Gd alloy is 23 times thicker than that without nanocrystallined ones.
摘要:Microstructure variation of TC4 alloy after hydrogen treatment was investigated by optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Effects of hydrogen content on hardness of TC4 alloy were researched by hardness testing. The results show that martensite α′ and hydride δ appear in the TC4 alloy after hydrogenation treatment with increase of hydrogen content, while only α and β phase existed in the alloy after dehydrogenation. Microstructure is refined in the alloy after hydrogenation and dehydrogenation treatment, which is attributed to the transformation of eutectoid (δ+α), in which the δ phase parallel to the α phase, and the decomposition of martensite α′. Hardness of the TC4 alloy is increased with the increase of hydrogen content after hydrogenation treatment as a result of microstructure refinement in the alloy.
摘要:Numerical simulation of vacuum arc remelting process of TiAl alloy with 180 mm in diameter was carried out to understand effects of melting temperature, melting velocity and cooling rate on temperature gradient in metal pool, melting pool shape and mushy zone width. The results show that with increasing in melting temperature, depth of melting pool is increased, and its shape is transformed from bowl shape to V-shape. Meanwhile, melting temperature has the slight effects on temperature gradient in melting pool and mushy zone width at solidification front. With the increase of melting velocity, temperature gradient is greatly decreased, and mushy zone width and melting pool depth are obviously decreased also. With the improvement of cooling rate, mushy zone width is greatly decreased with the slight decrease of temperature gradient and melting pool depth.

摘要:With the development of investment casting industry, the performance, especially the high performance of the silica sol shell was been highly required, so it was necessary to improve the quality of the shell. It was important to improve the quality of shells and castings by investigating the high temperature performance of the shell. Surface change and residual strength of the shell baked at 9001 600 ℃ were analyzed comparatively. The results show that existence of impurities in the refractory materials is closely related to the change of surface morphology of the shell. Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, and K in the refractory material can react with Al2O3 and SiO2 during baking process at high temperature to generate the low point phase, leading to the change of shell surface morphology and possible soft behavior of shell at high temperature. To ensure high surface quality and desirable de-shell ability and to reduce the possibility of high temperature softness of shell during pouring process, impurities in the shell should be strictly controlled. Residual strength of the shell exhibits basically stable at 9001 200 ℃,and residual strength of the shell is increased at 1 2001 500 ℃ as a result of mullite secondary reaction and effects of impurities, existing in the possibility of high temperature softness. Residual strength is greatly increased due to recrystallization of shell at above 1 500 ℃, resulting in the deterioration of de-shell performance.

The results show that trace Sr addition can greatly improve the morphology of Mg2Si phase, where primary Mg2Si phase is converted from coarse dendrite into polygonal structure, and eutectic Mg2Si phase is transformed from coarse Chinese script into fine rod-like ones or polygonal particle. Meanwhile, MgCO3 can obviously refine the AM60B matrix. Based on the above effects, the mechanical properties of the in-situ Mg2Si/AM60B magnesium matrix composites were significantly improved.
摘要:Carbon-nanotube reinforced Mg-based bulk metallic glass composites were prepared successfully with copper mold by differential pressure casting. Moreover, the microstructure, compressive behavior, fracture strength as well as fracture morphology of the composites were investigated. The results show that there exists desirable bonding between carbon-nanotube particle and the Mg-based bulk metallic glass, and the glass forming ability and thermal stability of the Mg-based bulk metallic glass can not be apparently changed by the induction of carbon-nanotube particle. Compared with the matrix amorphous alloy, the composites exhibit obvious advantages in the maximum compressive strength and fracture displacement. Carbon-nanotube is uniformly distributed into the matrix amorphous alloy in the absence of large-area colony, meanwhile, amounts of dimple structure in the fracture morphology of the composites can be observed.

摘要:The mechanism of Ti refining pure aluminum could not be described substantially by the theory of classical phase diagram, especially trace Ti on refining effects of pure Al. Valence electron structure of Ti, Al AlTi and Al3Ti phase was investigated by the empirical electron theory of solids and molecules (EET), and covalent bond electron numbers and bonding energy were calculated. It is found that, with trace Ti addition, Al3Ti phase can be created in the pure Al to refine grain size as heterogeneous nuclei.

摘要:The effects of cathodic & anodic duty cycles ratio of a bipolar square pulse power source on constitute,structure,surface morphology and corrosion resistance of microarc oxidation ceramic film’s were investigated. The results show that cathodic & anodic duty cycles have important influence on the film’s thickness,structure,morphology as well as corrosion resistance. Firstly,the surface roughness and mullite phase are increased with the the increese ratio of cathodic & anodic duty cycles. Secondly,a moderate da/dc is a key to obtain desirable corrosion resistance on MAO ceramics films. The duty cycle ratio also influences the film growth pattern. With da/dc≠1,the anodic voltage jumps suddenly in the third stage of the microarc oxidation time-growth curve.
摘要:CuCr powder was prepared with ethyl alcohol as process control agent (PCA) by mechanical alloying. Effects of PCA on powder yield, phase constituent, composition and microstructure of the mechanical alloyed powder were investigated. The results show that, with PCA addition, the powder yield and its dispersion are improved with the decrease of wear of abraser and introduction of impurities. However, excessive PCA addition can fade the grain refinement effects, leading to the decrease of solubility increment of Cr in Cu. With the 15% PCA addition, average grain size in the mechanical alloyed CuCr powder with homogeneous composition distribution after milling for 40 hours reaches up to 35 nm, and micro-strain is 0.448%, and the solid solubility of Cr in the Cu makes 1.0139%.

摘要:Influence of Zn on the properties of as-cast, cold working, electrochemical corrosion resistance, anti-tarnish of sulfuration and anti-oxidation of sterling silver were researched. The results show that with proper Zn addition, as-cast property of the sterling silver is improved, and shrinkage porosity is decreased, and compact microstructure in the silver can be observed. However, Zn addition is harmful for the improvement of the hardness of the sterling silver. With Zn addition less than 3.5%, the silver alloy exhibits acceptable cold working performance, electrochemical corrosion resistance and anti-tarnishing as well as oxidation resistance, in which, the more the Zn addition is, the better the anti-tarnishing of sterling silver is. However, with the Zn addition more than 4.5%, the cold working is deteriorated, and electrochemical corrosion resistance and anti-tarnishing are slightly decreased.
