摘要:Influences of strain rate on superplasticity of TA15 alloy were investigated by constant strain-rate tensile method.The results show that the elongation is increased gradually with decreasing in strain rate at 900 ℃ and strain rate in range of 3.3×10-4~1.1×10-2 s-1,and the maximum elongation of 1074% can be observed,and the better superplasticity can be also obtained at the high strain rate.Moreover,the extensive strain hardening stages appear in the curves of strain-stress.The lower the strain rate is,the longer the strain hardening stage is,and it is in favor of superplastic deformation.The microstructure observation shows that the strain rate is closely related with microstructure evolution.The lower the strain rate is,the more serious the microstructure coarsening is.Additionally,at the high stain rate,lots of new fine equaxied α phase appear in the deformed region of the specimen as a result of dynamic recrystallization.
摘要:Effects of different contents of RE(rich La) or Yttrium on morphologies of primary Mg2Si phases in Mg2Si/AZ91D composites were investigated.The results show that RE and Yttrium can all effectively refine the primary Mg2Si phases in Mg2Si/AZ91D composites,and the modification effect of Yttrium is superior to that of RE.Morphologies of the primary Mg2Si phases are changed from coarse dendrites to fine polygonal particles with 0.8% RE or Yttrium addition.Over-modification of the primary Mg2Si phases can be observed with RE or Yttrium addition to 1.2%,and primary Mg2Si phase is coarsened again.Modification mechanism is attributed to the enrichment of RE,Yttrium and their intermetallic compounds on the growth faces of the primary Mg2Si crystals restraining the growth of primary phase.

摘要:The adhering sand behavior of high strength A357 aluminum alloy transition ring castings during the pouring and solidification process was analyzed.Through the metallographic microstructure observation,micro-hardness measurements,SEM(scanning electron microscope) and EDS(energy dispersive spectrometer) and mechanical properties testing,serious adhering sand defects area were analyzed and identified.The results show that interface chemical reaction nearby the sand burning area can not be observed,and the internal casting defects in the cavity belong to mechanical adhering sand by the X-ray diffraction,which is attributed to the capillary permeability and gas phase penetration effect as a result of high temperature melting aluminum strongly eroding the surface coating of resin sand mould.With adding resistant high temperature oxide into the coating and increasing the coating’s thickness,the severity of mechanical adhering sand among the interface area is relieved,improving greatly the mechanical properties of the A357 aluminum alloy transition ring castings.

摘要:The high-strength copper/steel bimetal composite guide plates were produced by using two kinds of method such as liquid copper and steel casting cladding,liquid steel and copper casting cladding.The interface characteristics of the composite guide plate prepared was analyzed by observing the microstructures and measuring the elements distribution.The results show that desirable metallurgical bonding can be obtained at the copper/steel interface by the two methods.Atoms in high-strength copper/steel bimetal are preferential to diffusion along the metal surface and intergranular infiltration in composite process,and the main diffusion channel is grain boundary.The interfacial bonding of high-strength copper/steel bimetal can be achieved as a result of formation of Fe-Cu alloy phase in the Fe-rich and Cu-rich areas by surface wet-spread and atoms diffusion.
摘要:The short carbon fiber reinforced copper matrix composites are a promising metal matrix composites.However,copper plating on the surface of the short carbon fiber was conducted owing to the bad wettability between copper and carbon fiber.The electroplating copper and electroless copper process of short carbon fiber were reviewed,and merits and disadvantages of its process were analyzed in order to present its future tendency.With formaldehyde as reducing agent,the purity of the plating copper reaches almost 100%.So copper matrix composites made by such process exhibits excellent conductivity.But formaldehyde is harmful for human body and resulting in environmental pollution.Electroless copper plating in which hypophosphite acts as reducing agent is avirulent and harmless,however,the carbon fiber requires sensitization and activation.In the future,the main aspects will be focused on the system of electroless copper plating with hypophosphite acts as reducing agent,especially on simplifying process and improving the purity of plating copper.
