摘要:Trace elements Sc and Zr were added into the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys,and the differences of the microstructures and properties of the alloy prepared were compared in gravity casting and in squeeze casting.The results show that through the addition of trace elements Sc and Zr,as-cast microstructure of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys is refined effectively,and dendrite segregation is relieved,so the mechanical properties of alloy are improved.Through squeeze casting,the compactness of the alloys is improved,and the probability of occurrence of shrinkage porosity(holes)and segregation are decreased.In addition,the grain can be refined by the pressure on the alloy melt.Combined the element Sc-Zr microalloying with squeeze casting,Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy with uniform,compact,little defect microstructures can be obtained,which provides a new way to the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy forming.

摘要:The isothermal constant strain rate compression tests of TA15 titanium alloy with Widmanstatten and basketweave microstructure were carried out by THERMECMASTOR-Z hot working simulator testing machine in the range of 750℃950℃ and strain rate range of 0.001s-110s-1 in alpha and beta phase Zone.Effect of original structure on plastic flow behavior were appraoched.The results indicate that the stress-strain curves of TA15 titanium alloy are characterized by strain-softening types.The flow softening resulted from the spheroidization of lamellar alpha phase is increased with decreasing in deformation temperature and increasing in strain rate.The degree of flow softening of basketweave microstructure is greater than that of Widmanstatten microstructure at the same hot deformation parameter,which is attributed to the different spheroidization percentage of alpha phase caused by different hot deformation activation energy.
