摘要:The mechanical properties of cast Be-37.6Al-0.4Sc alloy were characterized by nano-indentation and tensile tests,and effects of Sc-alloying on the microstructure and fracture behaviors of the alloy were investigated via tensile fractography and optical metallography.With Sc alloying,the microstructure of the Be-Al alloy is converted from coarse columnar dendritics to uniform and fine equiaxed grain,which are responsible for improving strength and decreasing plasticity.The Sc-containing secondary phases presents the highest elastic modulus of 321.48 MPa,the highest hardness of 9.83 GPa and the lowest plasticity index of 0.803 compared with those of the matrix alloy.The secondary phases locating at the Be/Al interfaces is not acted as pre-existing micro-crack sources during the deformation,whereas the highly-faceted secondary phases within Be grains induced the formation of micro-cracks and resulted in the decrease of elongation.The failure mode of Be-37.6Al-0.4Sc alloy are characterized by brittle cleavage failure of Be regions and ductile dimple failure of Al regions compared with the Be-Al alloy.
摘要:The effects of different magnetic field excitation currents on the solidification microstructure and mechanical properties of ZL205A alloy were investigated by using downward traveling wave magnetic field,and the evolution law ofθphase was analyzed.The results show that the traveling wave magnetic field can refine the alloy structure to form fine near-equiaxed crystal structure,and improve the tensile strength and elongation of ZL205A alloy.Meanwhile,the excitation current of the magnetic field has a direct effect on the refinement effect of solidification structure.With the current frequency of 50 Hz,the desirable excitation current for ZL205A alloy is in range of 10~20 A.In addition,with the increase of the excitation current,theθphase appears to be paramagnetic in the magnetic field.As the magnetic field increase,the nucleation undercooling degree is increased,so the nucleation rate is increased andθphase is broken down.When the excitation current is less than 10 A,the electromagnetic force generated by the magnetic field has a great influence on the size of theθphase.When the magnetic current is 20 A,the melt viscosity is increased as a result of the magnetic field Lorentz force,which can prevent theθphase from further refinement.

摘要:The surface modification was used on FSC(FeSi7Cr3)magnetic powder with the coupling agent KH560 through the ball milling process.The microstructure and thermal analysis properties of the surface modification layer were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and thermogravimetric analysis(TG).The vector network analyzer was adopted to measure the electromagnetic parameters of the microwave absorbing materials.The results show that the shape of the magnetic powder particle is changed from spherical to flat after ball milling treatment.TG results show that the sample after surface treatment still has good oxidation resistance after oxidation for 4 hat 900℃.The electromagnetic parameter results show that the dielectric parameters of the sample after high temperature oxidation are decreased,which is conducive to improving the dielectric matching of microwave absorbing materials.The high-temperature oxidation results show that the surface modification of FSC magnetic powder with coupling agent KH560 can improve the high-temperature resistance of the microwave absorbing material.The surface-modified FSC magnetic powder still maintain good microwave absorbing properties after high temperature treatment.At the oxidation temperature of 700~900℃,the reflection loss peak is shifted from 4 GHz to high frequency near 6 GHz,and the reflection loss performance is kept at approximately 15 dB.The surface-modified absorbing material shows the satisfied oxidation resistance and microwave absorbing characteristics.

摘要:Striped slag is often appeared in the spigot position of centrifugal ductile iron pipes.The average thickness of slag layer is about 5~10 mm with black and dense structure,resulting in poor appearance and worse internal performance.The analysis reveals that the Si content in the stripped slag reaches 65.15%,and the "silicon rich structure" is formed by the accumulation of iron melt inoculant in the socket site without melting and diffusion.The stripped slag is mainly attributed to the advanced flow of Fe liquid.According to the analysis,through refining molten iron and strictly controlling the advanced flow of molten iron as well as pouring at high temperature,keeping uniform flow of the liquid Fe in the flow slot and matching with inoculants,stripped salg can be eliminated effectively.

摘要:Cu-25Zn-6Al-3Fe and Cu-25Zn-6Al-3Fe-4Mn alloy samples were prepared by medium frequency induction furnace smelting and graphite mould casting.The hardness and tribological properties of the two alloys were tested,respectively,and structure of the alloys was characterized by OM,XRD,SEM and EDS.The results reveal that both two kinds of alloy are composed of the CuZn matrix and the second phase.The addition of manganese does’ t change the type of the main strengthening phase and the self-lubricating phase of the alloy,and component testing confirms that the second phase of the two alloys belongs to iron-enrichment phase.The manganese element in the Cu-25Zn-6Al-3Fe-4Mn alloy exists in the matrix and iron-rich phase in form of solute atoms and has the highest concentration in the iron-enrichment phase.The addition of manganese can change the morphology of the second phase particles,and refine the size of the second phase,increasing the dispersion of the particles and improving the hardness of the matrix and the second phase by solid solution strengthening.As a result,the hardness of Cu-25Zn-6Al-3Fe-4Mn alloy reaches 251(HV),and the friction coefficient and the wear rate reach 0.319 and 5 mg,respectively,and the tribological properties are superior to those of the Cu-25Zn-6Al-3Fe.
