摘要:Morphology evolution of γ’ phase was investigated in a new nickel based single crystal during long-term aging. The results show that at 950、1 000 and 1 050 ℃,the phase morphology is evolved gradually into irregular strip shape,L shape and maze shape from initial cubical structure. The coarsening rate of phase in the interdendrite area is remarkably higher than that one in dendrite area. The coarsening rate is accelerated with aging temperature increase. The interfacial energy of γ /γ’ phase and the reduce of elastic strain energy are responsible for the phase coarsening and coarsening rate difference between the interdendrite and dendrite. The coarsening activation energy for phase in the interdendrite area and in dendrite area reach 345 kJ·mol- 1and 451 kJ·mol- 1,respectively.

摘要:Effects of Nd contents on microstructure and properties of quasi-crystal reinforced Mg-3. 0Zn-0. 6Y-0.6Zr alloy( ZWK3) contained I-Mg3YZn6quasi-crystal were investigated by SEM( scanning electron microscopy),XRD( X-ray diffraction),tensile testing and dynamic thermo-mechanical analysis. The results reveal that Nd addition can increase eutectic phase content in the alloy,and with increasing in Nd addition,eutectic structure is transformed from lamellar structure into divorced eutectic structure with absence of quasi-crystal phase. Meanwhile,the mechanical properties of ZWK3 alloy contained Nd is slightly lower than those of the matrix alloy,however,tensile strength and elongation of the alloy are increased with increasing in Nd addition. With Nd addition,the damping behavior of the alloy is slightly improved,which can be described by G-L dislocation model.

摘要:Effects of solid solution and aging treatment at varied temperature and time on microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-Y-Nd-Gd-Zr alloy were investigated by optical microscope( OM),scanning electron microscopy( SEM),hardness tester and electron tensile machine. The results show that the intermetallic compound with size coarseness in as-cast Mg-Y-Nd-Gd-Zr alloy is reduced with increasing in temperature and time,and the optimized solution treatment is at 520 ℃ for 8 hours.

After520 ℃ × 8 h solid solution treatment and hardness and 225 ℃ × 16 h aging treatment,the tensile strength and hardness of the Mg-Y-Nd-Gd-Zr alloy reach 271. 95 MPa and 78( HV),respectively.
摘要:The stabilizing temperature and time of the ZA35-0. 3Sr alloy were presented by electrochemical measurement of Tafel polarization curves,impedance spectroscopy test and microstructure analysis. The results show that the ε phase disappears due to dissolution into the matrix,and the non-equilibrium β phase at grain boundaries are eliminated after suitable stabilizing treatment for ZA35-0. 3% Sr alloy. The corrosion current density is reduced by 75. 69% and the corrosion resistance of the alloy is enhanced obviously compared with those of the alloy without treatment. The ZA35-0. 3Sr alloy with excellent corrosion resistance after stabilizing treatment is attributed to the increase of charge transfer reaction resistance and decrease significant of electrode electric double layer capacitor. The proper stabilizing treatment is at 350 ℃ for 4 h.

摘要:A electroslag remelting furnace with rotary mould was designed,and effects of the mould rotation speed on the degassing efficiency of Al2O3inclusion in electroslag remelting ingot were analyzed. The results show that when the mould rotating speed is in range of 0 28 r /min,the size of Al2O3inclusion is decreased gradually in electroslag ingot with the increase of mould rotating speed. The mould rotation can promote the refinement of metal droplet,enlarge the contact area between metal droplet with slag bath and improve dynamic condition of steelslag reaction. At the same time,slag bath movement can also drive the metal droplet to flow in the slag bath,which takes the longer route and longer delayed time in slag and accelerate steel-slag reaction. However,with the mould rotation speed further increased to 35 r /min,the inclusion size is increased,which is attributed to the higher mould rotation speed resulting in dramatical movement of metal bath and metal droplet to lead to involve the slag to metal bath and to decrease the ability of electroslag remelting to absorb the inclusion

Meanwhile,the relative density under grade-controlled pressurization is higher than under single-controlled pressurization. Under the same solidification pressure,the relative density is increased with the increase of wall thickness.

摘要:Welding-repair failure of aluminum alloy parts produced with gypsum mould by investment casting combining with vacuum pouring and solidification under pressure were analyzed. The results show that excessive hydrogen absorbed in the refining process can migrate towards the oxides and Al2O3double membrane in the process of solidification. During welding repair at defect surface of the upper castings,hydrogen concentration around the repair welding areas partially plays toward the Al2O3double membrane with the temperature increases,leading to the double membrane rupture to failure of welding repair as a result of pressure increase. By the degassing treatment and density measurement method,the hydrogen content in the Al alloy melt was controlled in a certain range,and failure of welding-repair could be improved.
摘要:Influences of different magnetic field intensity and pulsed frequency on solidified structure and mechanical properties of Mg97Y2Cu1alloy reinforced by long period ordered structure were investigated under direct current pulsed magnetic field( DCPMF). The results show that morphology and volume fraction of the second phase are changed. When the magnetic field intensity is at 0 0. 25 T,with the increase of magnetic field intensity,primary phase in the alloy is refined gradually,and the size and volume fraction of second phase are increased. When the pulsed frequency is at 1 5 Hz,effects of pulsed frequency on primary phase and second phase can be ignored. With the pulsed frequency increasd to 10 Hz,the desirable refinement effect of primary phase can be observed,and the second phase with the highest volume fraction is distributed uniformly into the matrix. With the increase of magnetic field strength or pulsed frequency,both the strength and elongation of the alloy are increased gradually. When the magnetic field intensity is 0. 25 T,tensile strength and elongation of the alloy are increased by 42. 5% and by 106. 0%,respectively,compared with the alloy in traditional condition.

摘要:Influences of alloying elements Cu,Mn and Ni on the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZL109 piston alloy were investigated. The results show that Cu can promote the precipitation of stripped Al3CuNi and skeleton like Al7Cu4Ni phases,which are responsible for gradually increase of tensile strength of alloy at room temperature and 300 ℃.

With the Mn content of 0.15%,the tensile strength at room and high temperature reaches peak value. With increasing Mn to 0. 30%,the tensile strength is decreased,which may be relate with the morphology of Mn-containing phase and its high temperature stability. It can be considered that the optimization compositions are 1. 0% Cu,0. 7% Ni,and 0. 15%Mn in ZL109 piston alloy.

摘要:MgO /Cu composites with different MgO content such as 1%,3%,5%,8%,were prepared by SPS( spark plasma sintering) method. Influences of different MgO volumetric fraction on density、electric conductivity,hardness and microstructure of the composites prepared were investigated. Arc erosion resistance was tested by JF04C electrical contact material testing system. Experimental results show that with the increase of MgO volumetric fraction,density and electric conductivity are decreased,meanwhile,the hardness is increased firstly and then decreased,and the weight loss is decreased and arc erosion resistance is improved. With MgO content of 5%,comprehensive properties of MgO /Cu composites exhibit desirable,where hardness is 110 HV and conductivity is 45. 24MS /m with electrical erosion resistance of 0. 1 mg. The microstructural observation reveals that with MgO content in range of 1% to 5%,MgO particles are uniformly distributed into the matrix with fine grain and decrease of contact surface melting degree. When the MgO volume fraction is 8%,MgO particles in copper matrix present a certain aggregation,leading to the comprehensive performance changes of MgO /Cu composites.
