摘要:Mg99.9-3xZnxY2xZr0.1(x=0.5,1,2,molar fraction,%)alloys reinforced with LPSO structure was prepared by rheo-squeeze casting.Microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloys prepared were investiagted.The results reveal that rheo-squeeze casting can refine effectively the microstructure of the alloys.The matrix structures of the alloys are composed of largerα1-Mg and smallerα2-Mg grains.The LPSO structure is distributed uniformly in the grain boundary.The lower the content of LPSO structure is,the more obvious the refining effect is.With the increase of squeeze pressure,the thickness of LPSO structure in the alloys is decreased.After the squeeze pressure reaches 100 MPa,the thickness is changed slowly with increasing in pressure.Compared with conventional gravity casting,rheo-squeeze casting can improve effectively the mechanical properties of the alloys,especially for the elongation,where the tensile strength and elongation of the rheo-squeeze casting Mg96.9Zn1Y2Zr0.1 alloy under 400 MPa are improve by 19%and 170%,respectively.

摘要:The Sn-58 Bi solder ribbon was prepared by the twin-roll rapid solidification technique,and the Cu/Sn-58 Bi/Cu linear solder joints were prepared.The interface IMC,element diffusion and microstructure evolution of solder joints were analyzed by EPMA and EDS after the current density of 1×104 A/cm2(25 ℃).The results reveal that the morphology of the anode IMC layer is changed from scallop shape to zigzag shape,and the cathode IMC layer is changed from scallop shape to irregular one with the increase of thickness gradually.Bi is segregated toward the anode to form a Bi-rich layer,and Sn is segregated at the cathode.And the matrix eutectic structure(Bi+β-Sn)is coarsened.Based on linear fitting,the growth coefficient n of IMC layer of the anode and cathode are 0.263 and 0.442,respectively,and the growth mechanism is attributed to volume diffusion.
摘要:In order to understand influence of internal cooling with annular electromagnetic stirring(IC-AEMS)treatment,the precipitation behavior of the primary Al3Zr phase and the solidification structure of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy,was investigated by optical microscope(OM)and scanning electron microscope(SEM).The results show that with IC-AEMS,the morphology of Al3Zr particles is transformed from needle and plate-like to small and finely distributed blocks.Compared with the microstructure of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy without IC-AEMS,the refining effect and uniformity of the microstructure is improved greatly with IC-AEMS treatment,where the average grain size is reduced from 387μm to 218μm.
摘要:In order to reduce the"stray grain"presented in laser restoration layer on single crystal superalloy,an energy-retrained laser epitaxial restoration(ERLER)process was put forward.The effects of laser power and the width of single crystal superalloy base metal on the morphology and microstructure of restoration layer were investigated.The results reveal that,the restoration layer produced by ERLER process possesses directionally epitaxial grains in almost entire layer,and the formation probability of"stray grains"is decreased greatly.Under the optimized parameters,continuous epitaxial grains can be obtained in restoration layer with a thickness of 1 220μm.With the increase of laser power,the layer thickness is increased to some extent.At the same laser power and laser spot diameter,the layer thickness is increased and then decreased with flattening morphology when the base metal width is increased.For the case of 3 mm width,obvious flow paths are presented in the restoration layer.Combined with the photos taken by high-speed camera,the flow behavior in the laser molten pool can be revealed as follows:the metal firstly rised up from bottom of molten pool center to surface and spreaded to around,then flowed back to the center bottom along with the molten pool bottom.
摘要:The effects of Si,Mn and Fe elements alloying on the high temperature properties and microstructure of ultrathin aluminum alloy fins were investiagted by high temperature tensile test,optical microscope and scanning electron microscope.The results reveal that the strength of 3003 and 3003 mod aluminum alloy is decreased with the increase of tensile temperature,while the elongation is increased firstly and then decreased.The yield strength of alloy-modified ultrathin 3003 mod at 500 ℃is 32.2% higher than that of 3003 alloy.The number of nanoscale particles in 3003 mod aluminum alloy is increased significantly with alloying,and the micronscale particle number is reduced.The characteristic of microstructure of 3003 mod alloy can suppress secondary recrystallization nucleation of the ultrathin foil in the process of high temperature tensile,leading to more coarse grain and bigger aspect ratio compared with the 3003 alloy at the same tensile temperature.The secondary recrystallization is mainly respeosnible for the sharp decrease of the elongation of the two alloys compared with that at 300℃.

摘要:2 A14 aluminum alloys wheel hub forging blank with different Sc contents were prepared by casting and isothermal compound forging.Effects of Sc additions on the mechanical properties and microstructure of 2 A14 aluminum alloy wheel hubs were investigated.The results reveal that the grain in the 2 A14 aluminum alloy can be refined greatly,and most of the grains present equiaxed grain with the addition of Sc element to 0.3%.Although the Sc element can improve the elongation of the 2 A14 aluminum alloy wheel hub,it can reduce significantly tensile strength to below 400 MPa,which is mainly related to the fact that the Sc element can consume Cu elements in the 2 A14 aluminum alloy,resulting in a decrease of strengthening phaseθ′-Al2 Cu.However,the Sc element can inhibit recrystallization,narrow the performance difference between the various parts of the alloy hub,and thus improving the thermal stability.

摘要:In the post-processing of cast CAE,it is necessary to fill the isolated gas phase of the casting,however as the complexity of the casting increases,the scanning line seed filling algorithm cann’t adapt to the demand of the massive data generated by the casting CAE post-processing module.By modifying the original algorithm,the stack structure was modified,so that the scanned line segments and the filled cells didn’t need scanned and filled,respectively,which reduced the amount of calculation data,and the parallel calculation greatly saved the filling and display time.The results of several examples show that the improved algorithm can improve the display speed of isolated areas of complex castings,and with the filling area increase,the more time is saved.

摘要:The effects of low-speed process on the porosity,microstructure and mechanical properties of YZAlSi9 Cu3 die-casting parts were investigated by means of optical microscopy,X-ray inspection and mold flow analysis,etc,combined with orthogonal test and mechanical testing.The experimental results show that the air hole in the machining surface of an engine cylinder block is mainly caused by the unreasonable design of the low speed process.When the slow injection speed is more than 0.4 m/s,the entrapped-gas volume of the castings is increased,and the liquid of the piston is more than the piston oil,so comprehensive performance is decreased.When the slow injection low speed is 0.2 m/s,the casting structure presents sound with a little slag content and low porosing,so the mechanical properties are desirable.

摘要:A method was proposed of opening a circular arc groove at the bottom of the crystallizer to improve the uniformity of microstructure and composition of the horizontal continuous casting Cu-15 Ni-8 Sn alloy.Firstly,based on the temperature field simulation of horizontal continuous casting process of the alloy,influence of crystallizer structure with different arc groove angle,length and thickness was analyzed on temperature distribution in crystallization zone.Then,based on the optimized circular arc groove crystallizer and the crystallizer without the circular arc groove,a horizontal continuous casting process for a 65 mm diameter ingot was carried out.The results reveal that with the increase of the angle,length and thicknessof circular arc groove,the relative horizontal distance of the upper and lower solid-liquid interface is decreased,and the axial angle between the solid-liquid interface and the bar is tended to be 90°.Meanwhile,the temperature field uniformity of the billet is improved obviously during solidification.When the slot angle is 180°,the slot length is 144 mm and the slot thickness is 5 mm for the circular groove,the relative horizontal distance between the upper and lower solid-liquid interfaces is only7%to that without the circular groove.Due to the more reasonable temperature distribution,the uniformity of the microstructure and composition of the horizontal continuous casting Cu-15 Ni-8 Sn ingot is improved greatly.
