摘要:Cu-Ni-Nb alloy was fabricated by vacuum arc melting.The effects of Nb content on microstructure,melting point and thermal conductivity of Cu-Ni-Nb alloy were investigated.The results show that the Cu-Ni-Nb alloy is composed of Cu0.81 Ni0.19 matrix and the second phase of NbNi3.When the mass ratio of Ni/Nb is(610)∶1,the second phase morphology in the Cu-Ni-Nb alloy exhibits all lamellar structure.When the mass ratio of Ni/Nb is(24)∶1,the second phase morphology in Cu-Ni-Nb alloy presents the mixed structure of lamellar and particle structure.With the increase of Nb content,the solid solubility of nickel atoms in Cu-Ni-Nb alloy is decreased,so the melting point of the alloy is decreased,while the thermal conductivity is increased.The second phase in the Cu-20 Ni-5 Nb is fine lamellar and particle structure,which are distributed uniformly in the matrix.The second phase volume fraction reaches 19.2%,and the melting point of Cu-20 Ni-5 Nb alloy is 1 134.92℃ with its thermal conductivity up to 45.25 W/(m·K),which can meet the requirements of manufacture and application of cast copper cooling water jacket.
摘要:The effects of Sr addition on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of Mg-5.5 Zn-1.2 Y-0.6 Zr(ZWK611)alloys were investigated systematically using XRD,OM,FESEM,EDS and tensile tests.The results reveal that trace addition of Sr(0.08%)can refine grain size in the ZWK611 with the increase of second particles,so tensile strength and elongation of the alloy reach 246.1 MPa and14.5%,compared with those of alloy without Sr addition,increased by 10.1%and 21.8%,respectively.However,with further increasing in Sr addition,mechanical properties of the ZWK611 are decreased,which may be attributed to the combined effects of grain coarsening and decrease of the second phases strengthening as well as more W phases generation.
摘要:In order to understand influence of preheating temperature on TiC/Ni functionally gradient coating,the TiC/Ni functionally gradient coating on H13 steel surface was prepared by self-propagating high temperature synthesis and pseudo hot isostatic pressing(SHS/PHIP).The phase and microstructure of the coating were analyzed by XRD and SEM-EDS.Microhardness and bonding strength of the coating were tested by microhardness tester.The results reveal that the coating mainly consists of TiC particles generated in situ and Ni-based solid solution which closely wraps around the TiC particles.The coatings present porous skeleton structures.With the increase of preheating temperature,the coating surface porosities are decreased,while density,TiC grain size and surface hardness are increased.Meanwhile,element diffusion between coating and matrix is enhanced,and metallurgical bonding strength is increased.

摘要:Mg-20 Cu-8 Sn and Mg-15 Ca-5 Sn alloys for magnesium based thermal storage materials were designed.Densities of two alloys were measured by drainage method.The microstructure,phase composition of the two alloys are characterized by metallographic microscope(OM),X-ray diffraction(XRD)and electron microprobe(EPMA).And thermal phase change temperature,latent heat were measured by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).The results show that the densities of Mg-20 Cu-8 Sn and Mg-15 Ca-5 Sn alloys reach 2.133 g/cm3 and 1.695 g/cm3,respectively.Mg-20 Cu-8 Sn alloy is composed ofα-Mg+CuMg2+Mg2 Sn and Mg-15 Ca-5 Sn consists ofα-Mg+MgCa2+Mg2 Sn.The phase transition temperature and latent heat of the two alloy are 462.42,517.37 ℃ and 136.4,195.1 J/g,respectively.
摘要:The influence of w(Mg)/w(Si)mass ratio on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-4 Mg-xSi-0.6 Cr die casting alloys was investigated.The results reveal that Mg is mainly soluted inα-Al matrix and a small amount of Al3Mg2 particle phase can be generated,which results in the high comprehensive mechanical properties withoutSi added in the alloy.With the addition ofSi elements,the strength of the alloy is increased,while ductility is decreased sharply due to Mg andSi formed Al-Mg2Si eutectic microstructure.Al-Mg2Si eutectic lamellar spacing is increased and it’s morphology is transferred into concave polygon with the decrease of Mg/Si mass ratio,which can accelerate fracture during tensile process as a result of stress concentration.When the Mg/Si mass ratio is decrease to 1.6,with the increase ofSi,the amount of Mg2Si phase keeps constant value.Meanwhile,the strength is increased and ductility is decreased due to long stripSi eutectic phase formed in the die casting alloy.The category and morphology of Cr phase are related with Mg/Si mass ratio.With excess of Mg,the Cr exists in form of large block Al13 Cr2 phase,while with excessSi,the Cr is distributed evenly with irregular Al5(Cr,Fe)Si.

摘要:Raveling magnetic field(TMF)was applied in the solidification of ZL205 Aalloy.The effects of different TMF current intensity on element distribution,microstructure and grain size of ZL205 Aalloy samples were investigated.The results show that distribution of Cu element is more uniform in the solidification of ZL205 Aalloy with TMF,and the grain size at the upper of the samples is refined.Due to the density difference,the deposited layer can be formed in the samples and thickness of the deposited layer is decreased with the increase of the intensity of excitation current and eventually disappear,which are attributed to the melt flow caused by TMF promoting the uniform distribution of solid phase and liquid phase.The element in the samples is more uniformly distribution and the deposition of the elements and phases can be avoided by TMF.

摘要:The reaction between salt fluxes containing metal fluorides and main elements in A356 alloy was investigated by thermodynamics analysis and experiments,and its influence on microstructure and constituent of Al alloy and the phase of fluxes were analyzed by SEM,EDS and XRD.The results reveal that the equilibrium constants of displacement reactions between main elements of A356 alloy and metal chlorides are mostly lower than those of metal fluorides,which indicate that metal chlorides are more stable than fluorides in salt fluxes.NaF,SrF2 and BaF2 in the fluxes can react easily with Al or Mg and generate the divorced atoms in Al melt,such as Na,Sr,Ba,to modify eutectic silicon significantly.Na3 AlF6 fluxes can also react with Al and generate trace the divorced Na atoms to modify eutectic silicon slightly.However,influences of AlF3,MgF2 and CaF2 on microstructures of A356 alloy can be ignored.Metal fluorides not exhibit measurable effects on the phase of salt fluxes while NaF and BaF2 can generate new phases KMgF3 and BaFCl in salt fluxes,respectively.MgF2,CaF2,SrF2,BaF2 would remain in A356 alloy because of their high densities and melting points,which could affect the constituents of alloy.
