摘要:The microstructure,mechanical properties and fracture behaviors of Mg-6Zn-1.5Cu alloy at ascast,solution and aging treatment were investigated by OM,SEM,TEM,XRD and mechanical tests,respectively.The experimental results indicate that the microstructure of the as-cast alloy is composed ofα-Mg,semi-continuously or continuously distributed intermetallics(α-Mg+MgZn2+Mg2Cu+CuZnMg)at grain boundaries and isolated particles in the grain.With the increase of holding time,solution effects and aging strengthening effects of the alloy are increased gradually with solution treatment at 450℃ for 12,20,28 and 36 h,and then aged at 180℃ for 12,20,28 and 36 h.With the solution and aging time more than 28 h,residual eutectic compounds and aging strengthening precipitation present coarsening phenomenon.With aged at 180℃ for 28 h,the alloy with desirable structure presents tensile strength and elongation of 265 MPa and 15.90%,respectively.The fracture morphology of the as-cast alloy is characterized by cleavage and inter-granular fracture,while the fracture behavior of the alloy aged is dominated by the mixture of inter-granular and trans-granular modes.
摘要:Five typical metal materials for fashion jewelry,including 316L stainless steel,TA2 pure titanium,CoCrMo alloy,tungsten carbide and TaC system carbide,were investigated comparatively from physical properties,chemical properties,mechanical properties,process performance and safety performance.The results show that all the experimental materials belong to colorless with the highest brightness for CoCrMo alloy and the highest chromatic value for TaC system carbide.The five materials have excellent corrosion resistance in the artificial sweat,especially the highest corrosion potential for TA2 while the lowest for tungsten carbide.The higher hardness of the material presents the lower wear weightlessness rate in the wet erosion test,accordingly the glossiness on jewelry surface can be kept the longer.316 L,TA2 and CoCrMo alloy can adopt a variety of forming processes,in which 316L and TA2 alloy are more suitable for setting ornamental stones directly,and they can be colored by anodic oxidation process,by contrast,tungsten carbide and TaC system carbide can only be formed by powder metallurgy and linear cutting,which are unsuitable for setting stones directly.TA2 and CoCrMo alloys have the desirable biocompatibility among them.

摘要:Effects of different pulsed voltage and pulsed frequency on distribution and morphology of primary silicon in Al-20Si alloy were investigated.The results show that primary silicon mainly presents segregation and coarsening under pulsed magnetic field,which provides possibility for the preparation of gradient materials.When the pulse voltage is 80 V,the primary silicon is coarsened with segregation,which is concentrated in the edge not in the core position.With the pulsed voltage of 160 V,primary silicon tends to be coarsened and agglomeration,however the whole distribution tends to be uniform.When the pulse voltage is 240 V,the agglomeration and coarseness of primary silicon is weakened with more uniform distribution.When the pulsed frequency is 15 Hz,the distribution and morphology of primary silicon will be independent on the increase of the pulse frequency.However,when the pulse frequency is increased to 10 Hz,the primary silicon presents segregation and coarsening effects.

摘要:The isothermal constant strain rate compression experiment was carried out on titanium alloy TC4 ELI at the two phase region temperature of 750950 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.00170 s-1 by using Gleeble-3500 thermal simulation machine.The hot deformation behavior of the alloy was analyzed,and the constitutive model of the alloy was established by the Arrhenius equation and BP artificial neural network model.The results reveal that the effect of strain rate and deformation temperature on the flow stress of titanium alloy TC4 ELI exhibits remarkable,and the flow stress is decreased with increasing in deformation temperature and decreasing in strain rate.In the deformation of the two-phase region,theαphase in the original microstructure has a certain degree of spheroidization/dynamic recrystallization,and the low strain rate can promote occurrence of the spheroidization/dynamic recrystallization.The average errors reach 17.51% and 1.36% for establishment of Arrhenius equation and BP artificial neural network model for the constitutive equations,and BP artificial neural network model has a higher precision,which is more suitable for predicting the flow stress of titanium alloy TC4 ELI.
