摘要:Al-5Band Al-7Balloy melts were poured into different moulds(graphite mould,iron mould and sand mould)for solidification to understand influences of cooling rate and stirring on the microstructure evolution of Al-B alloys.The results demonstrate that the average size and width of the size distribution of the boride particles are decreased with the increase of cooling rate.At fixed cooling rate,a boride particle in Al-5Bmaster alloy exhibits serious segregation while it exhibits weak segregation in Al-7Bmaster alloy.Furthermore,effects of stirring on microstructural evolution of Al-B master alloy were described.It also indicates that stirring before casting can prevent effectively the coagulation between the boride particles and inhibit the formation of coarse boride particles,promoting the formation of dispersed microstructure.
摘要:Recent progress in eutectic silicon modification of Al-Si alloys was summarized,and application status of the main modifier and key factors affecting modification treatment were reviewed,focusing on influences of modifiers on the porosity in castings and the interaction between modifiers and grain refiners.Recently,the research on the widest used Na and Sr series modifiers is concentrated on the mechanism and solutions on porosity increase in castings caused by modification.The cooling rates and alloying elements are two important factors affecting the modification.The method to improving the modification level of eutectic silicon in multi-element Al-Si alloys at a lower cooling rate is still an important research direction.The nature of mutual poisoning effect between Sr andα-Al grain refiners is the reaction between Sr and refinement particles resulting in efficient content reduction of both modifier and grain refiner.By rational control of content of modifier and grain refiner in the melt and the addition technique,the well-modified eutectic silicon and fineα-Al grains can be achieved.In addition,development of novel Al-(Si)-Sr-(Ti)-B master alloy is also an efficient way to avoiding mutual poisoning.

摘要:The modification effects of rare earth Er content on primary Mg2Si in hypereutectic Mg-5Si alloy were investigated,and mechanical properties of the alloy containing different Er were tested.In addition,the modification mechanism of Er was described.The results reveal that the primary Mg2Si phase can be modified and refined effectively with adding 2.0% Mg-30 Er,where the average size of primary Mg2Si phase can be decreased from more than 150μm to less than 15μm,and the morphology of primary Mg2Si phase is transformed from the coarse dendrite into fine polyhedron particle with uniform distribution.The tensile strength and elongation of the alloy with 2.0% Mg-30 Er reach 135 MPa and 3.8%,respectively.However,with the Mg-30 Er content more than 3.0%,the primary Mg2Si phase in hypereutectic Mg-5Si alloy becomes coarse again,which is attributed to the enrichment of Er on the growth facets of the primary Mg2Si crystals to depress preferred growth manner of the primary Mg2Si crystals.
