The simulation results demonstrated that the strain rate from 0.05 to 2 ns–1 affected the Young＇s modulus of nickel nanowires slightly, whereas the yield stress increased. The Young＇s modulus decreased approximately linearly; however, the yield stress firstly increased and subsequently dropped as the temperature increased. The Young＇s modulus and yield stress increased as the mean grain size increased from 2.66 to 6.72 nm. Moreover, certain efforts have been made in the microstructure evolution with mechanical properties association under uniaxial tension. Certain phenomena such as the formation of twin structures, which were found in nanowires with larger grain size at higher strain rate and lower temperature, as well as the movement of grain boundaries and dislocation, were detected and discussed in detail. The results demonstrated that the plastic deformation was mainly accommodated by the motion of grain boundaries for smaller grain size. However, for larger grain size, the formations of stacking faults and twins were the main mechanisms of plastic deformation in the polycrystalline nickel nanowire.展开更多

The results showed that the composite billet had good surface quality, metallurgical bonding interface between brass and pure copper as well as elongation of 53.1%. Synergistic deformation degree between pure copper wire and brass cladding layer was high during drawing. With an increase of the total deformation amount, the plastic deformation of the pure copper wire reduced triangular arc gaps between the pure copper wires and the triangular arc gaps were fully filled at 50%. When the total deformation amount was increased to 63%, dislocation cells and microbands successively formed in the pure copper wire. In the brass cladding layer, planar dislocation networks, twins and shear bands formed successively, and the main deformation mechanisms were dislocation sliding, twinning and shear deformation. The tensile strength increased from 240 MPa of the composite billet to 519 MPa of the one with the deformation amount of 63%, but the elongation decreased from 53.1% to 3.2%. A process of solid/liquid continuous casting and composite forming→drawing can work as a new compact method to produce brass cladding pure copper stranded wire composite as railway through grounding wire.展开更多

In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.展开更多

In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.

文摘The microstructural evolution,phase stability,and mechanical properties of Al-Li-Mg-Ti-M(M=Zn,Zr,V)lightweight high-entropy alloys(LW-HEAs)were investigated.The LW-HEAs with three components,Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)-Ti_(40)Zn_(10)(#Zn),Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)Ti_(30)Zr_(20)(#Zr),and Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)Ti_(30)V_(20)(#V),were designed according to the thermo-dynamic design criteria of HEA,and prepared via a combination process of mechanical alloying and cold-press sintering.The effects of alloy composition and sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the LW-HEAs were studied.The results show that the as-milled Al-Li-Mg-Ti-M(M=Zn,Zr,V)LW-HEAs form a simple structure with HCP-type solid solution as the primary phase,a dual-HCP type solid solution phase,and a BCC phase,respectively.After cold-press sintering,the#Zn and#V alloys undergo obvious phase transformation;while the#Zr alloy with dual-HCP phases exhibits the best phase stability during heat treatment.The#V-750°C alloy demonstrates the maximum hardness and specific strength of HV 595.2 and 625 MPa∙cm3/g,respectively,under the combined effect of solid solution strengthening of BCC phase and precipitation strengthening ofβ-AlTi_(3).Moreover,the#Zr-650°C,#Zr-750°C,and#Zn-650°C alloys are expected to have excellent plasticity.

文摘The hot deformation behavior of the premium GH4738 alloy was investigated in the temperature range of 1313 to 1353 K at strain rates of 0.01 to 1 s^(−1)using the hot compression test.To accurately predict flow stress,three novel strain compensation constitutive equations were developed and rigorously assessed.The results indicate that the power function model(correlation coefficients r=0.98544)demonstrates greater prediction accuracy compared to other functions,with a calculated average activation energy of 507.968 kJ mol−1.Additionally,electron backscattered diffraction technology and transmission electron microscopy were used to analyze the evolution of the alloy microstructure during dynamic recrystallization under different deformation conditions.The results show that under high-temperature and large deformation conditions,the dislocation density and the degree of grain rotation increase,which promotes the formation and growth of new recrystallized grains,so that recrystallization is completed when the deformation amount reaches 30%.Besides,the increase in the temperature not only enhances the thermal activation mechanism,but also improves the grain size uniformity and texture consistency.Meanwhile,the carbide inhibits grain overgrowth by pinning grain boundaries,maintaining a fine and uniform grain structure of the alloy,and thereby improving the plasticity of the material.

文摘The regulation of sintering temperature in spark plasma sintering enables the achievement of grain refinement,phase control,and performance enhancement in the preparation of AZ91D magnesium alloy.This study investigates the influence of sintering temperature on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the AZ91D alloy.Microstructural analysis was conducted using scanning electron microscopy,electron backscatter diffraction,and X-ray diffraction.Microscopic structures and mechanical behaviors were examined through hardness and tensile tests.Elevated sintering temperatures resulted in reduced secondary phase content,leading to a decrease in mechanical performance.The alloy exhibited optimal mechanical properties at 320℃.The nanoparticle coarsening process and particle evolution during sintering were simulated using phase field methods.By optimizing the sintering temperature,precise control over microstructural and textural evolution can be achieved,facilitating the attainment of desired hardness levels and mechanical properties.

文摘Solution and aging treatment were conducted on the laser directed energy deposition(LDED)-prepared carbon nanotubes(CNTs)-reinforced WE43(CNTs/WE43)layers to optimize their microstructure and surface properties in this study.The microstructure of the WE43 and CNTs/WE43 layers was systematically compared.The dissolution of divorced eutectics at the grain boundaries was retarded by CNTs during solution treatment.The spot segregation composed of Mg_(24)Y_(5),CNTs,and Zr cores in the solution treated CNTs/WE43 layer presented a slight decreasing in Y content.The grain growth of both types of layers underwent three stages:slow,rapid,and steady-state.The significant inhibitory effect of CNTs on the grain growth of the LDED WE43 matrix was more pronounced than the promoting effect of temperature,resulting in a 47%increase at 510℃ and a 35%increase at 540℃ in the grain growth exponent compared to the WE43 layers at 510℃.During the subsequent aging treatment at 225℃,the precipitation sequences from plate-shaped β″to plate-shaped and globular β′ were observed in both types of layers.CNTs can facilitate an increase in the nucleation rate of precipitates,but without accelerating precipitation hardening rate.The long and short diameters of the precipitates in peak-aged state were decreased by 48.5%and 43.1%by addition of CNTs,respectively.The wear resistance of both the WE43 and CNTs/WE43 layers can be significantly enhanced through solution and aging treatment.The enhancement in wear resistance for the CNTs/WE43 layers is considerably greater than that of the WE43 layers.

文摘Laser beam welding was used to join a near-β titanium alloy(Ti-3Al-6Mo-2Fe-2Zr),followed by aging treatments.The relations among aging temperature,microstructure,and tensile properties of joints were revealed.For as-welded joints,the fusion zone features primarily single β phase.It is attributed to the high Mo equivalency of this alloy and the fast cooling rate in laser beam welding.After aging treatments,many α precipitates form in the fusion zone and heat affected zone.The rising aging temperature coarsens α precipitates and reduces the volume fraction of α precipitates.Compared with the as-welded joints,the aging treated joints'tensile strength and elongation are improved.The increasing aging temperature weakens the strengthening effect because of the decreasing volume fraction of α precipitates.After the aging treatment at 500℃ for 8 h,the joints obtain the optimal match between strength and plasticity.The fracture mode of joints changes from quasi-cleavage fracture in as-welded condition to microvoid coalescence fracture after heat treatments.

文摘The transient liquid-phase(TLP)diffusion bonding of GH5188 with a BNi-5 interlayer was focused on.Parameters were chosen and optimized for GH5188 alloy according to the TLP joining mechanism.The microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of the joints were studied.Results show that the relatively complete isothermal solidification zone(ISZ)ensures a reliable connection of the base metal(BM).Within the temperature range of 1110–1190°C,higher bonding temperatures can widen ISZ and promote joint composition homogenization,thus improving mechanical properties.However,the increase in precipitated phase has an adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the joint.The maximum shear strength,reaching 482 MPa,is achieved at 1130°C,representing 84.6%of BM strength.Within the pressure range of 5–15 MPa,both precipitated phases in adiabatic solidification zone(ASZ)and voids generated by partial melting increase.On the contrary,their sizes decrease significantly under higher bonding pressure,resulting in an upward trend in alloy mechanical properties.The maximum shear strength of 490 MPa is attained at a bonding pressure of 15 MPa.The joint exhibits a typical mixed fracture pattern,with the small brittle M_(23)C_(6) phase and voids significantly impacting mechanical properties.Nano-indentation tests indicate that ASZ is a potential source of cracks.

文摘Self-designed Al8Si0.4Mg0.4Fe aluminium alloy was modified with Sr,followed by solid solution and aging treatments to regulate its microstructure and mechanical/electrical properties.The results show that after the modification treatment,the room-temperature tensile strength of the alloy remains nearly unchanged,the elongation at break slightly increases from 1.82%to 3.34%,and the electrical conductivity significantly increases from 40.1%international annealed copper standard(IACS)to 42.0%IACS.After the modification,the alloy was subjected to solid solution treatment at 515℃for 8 h,followed by aging treatment at 180,200,220 and 240℃for 6 h.With increasing aging temperature,the electrical conductivity increases monotonously from 41.4%IACS to 45.5%IACS,while the room-temperature tensile strength initially increases and then decreases.At 200℃,the alloy achieves an optimal balance between electrical conductivity and room-temperature tensile strength:the electrical conductivity is 42.5%IACS,and the room-temperature tensile strength is 282.9 MPa.When the aging temperature continues to rise,the alloy undergoes overaging.Although the conductivity continues to increase,the room-temperature tensile strength drops sharply,and it is only 177.1 MPa at 240℃.

文摘Fe-Mo functionally graded materials(FGMs)with different composition-change rates from 100%304 stainless steel to 100%Mo along the composition gradient direction were prepared by electron beam-directed energy deposition(EB-DED)technique,including three samples with composition mutation of 100%,composition change rate of 10%and 30%.Results show that the composition-change rate significantly affects the microstructure and mechanical properties of the samples.In the sample with abrupt change of composition,the sharp shift in composition between 304 stainless steel and Mo leads to a great difference in the microstructure and hardness near the interface between the two materials.With the increase in the number of gradient layers,the composition changes continuously along the direction of deposition height,and the microstructure morphology shows a smooth transition from 304 stainless steel to Mo,which is gradually transformed from columnar crystal to dendritic crystal.Elements Fe,Mo,and other major elements transform linearly along the gradient direction,with sufficient interlayer diffusion between the deposited layers,leading to good metallurgical bonding.The smaller the change in composition gradient,the greater the microhardness value along the deposition direction.When the composition gradient is 10%,the gradient layer exhibits higher hardness(940 HV)and excellent resistance to surface abrasion,and the overall compressive properties of the samples are better,with the compressive fracture stress in the top region reaching 750.05±14 MPa.

文摘The hot deformation behavior of as-extruded Ti-6554 alloy was investigated through isothermal compression at 700–950°C and 0.001–1 s^(−1).The temperature rise under different deformation conditions was calculated,and the curve was corrected.The strain compensation constitutive model of as-extruded Ti-6554 alloy based on temperature rise correction was established.The microstructure evolution under different conditions was analyzed,and the dynamic recrystallization(DRX)mechanism was revealed.The results show that the flow stress decreases with the increase in strain rate and the decrease in deformation temperature.The deformation temperature rise gradually increases with the increase in strain rate and the decrease in deformation temperature.At 700°C/1 s^(−1),the temperature rise reaches 100°C.The corrected curve value is higher than the measured value,and the strain compensation constitutive model has high prediction accuracy.The precipitation of theαphase occurs during deformation in the twophase region,which promotes DRX process of theβphase.At low strain rate,the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization increases with the increase in deformation temperature.DRX mechanism includes continuous DRX and discontinuous DRX.

文摘Low-oxygen TZM alloy(oxygen content of 0.03vol%)was subjected to solid-solution heat treatment at various temperatures followed by quenching.Results show that the tensile strength of the alloy gradually decreases with the increase in solidsolution temperature,and the elongation first increases and then decreases.The the amount of nanoscale Ti-rich phases precipitated in low-oxygen TZM alloys gradually increases with the increase in solid-solution temperature.Special strip-shaped Ti-rich areas appear in the samples solidified at 1200 and 1300℃.The nanoscale Ti-rich phases ensure the uniform distribution of dislocations throughout TZM alloy,while significantly improving the plasticity of low-oxygen TZM alloy samples.
文摘Interrupted and ruptured creep tests were conducted on single crystal superalloy DD9 at 980℃/250 MPa and 1100℃/137 MPa conditions.Microstructure evolution during creep was analyzed through scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope.Results show that the microstructure evolutions are similar under the creep conditions of 980℃/250 MPa and 1100℃/137 MPa.Cubicalγ′phase,which is dispersedly distributed in theγmatrix,gradually evolves into a layered structure perpendicular to the stress direction.The width of theγmatrix channel along the direction parallel to the stress increases.The relationship between the increase in width of theγmatrix channel and the strain satisfies linear relationship in logarithmic form,indicating that the width of theγmatrix can be deduced via the strain under creep state.This may provide an approach to investigate the width ofγmatrix in single crystal superalloys during creep under high temperature and low stress conditions.In the early creep stage,dislocations formed in theγphase generate mutually perpendicular networks through cross-slip at theγ/γ′interface.Then,stable hexagonal dislocation networks form as a result of the coupling effects of external stress and mismatch stress at high temperatures.In the later period of creep,dislocations shear theγ′phase,ultimately causing the fracture.

文摘The microstructure evolution and deformation mechanism of a DZ125 superalloy during high-temperature creep were studied by means of microstructure observation and creep-property tests.The results show that at the initial stage of high-temperature creep,two sets of dislocations with different Burgers vectors move and meet inγmatrix channels,and react to form a quadrilateral dislocation network.Andγ′phases with raft-like microstructure are generated after the formation of dislocation networks.As creep progresses,the quadrilateral dislocation network is gradually transformed into hexagonal and quadrilateral dislocation networks.During steady stage of creep,the superalloy undergoes deformation with the mechanism that a great number of dislocations slip and climb in the matrix across the raft-likeγ′phases.At the later stage of creep,the raft-likeγ′phases are sheared by dislocations at the breakage of dislocation networks,and then alternate slip occurs,which distorts and breaks the raft-likeγ′/γphases,resulting in the accumulation of micropores at the raft-likeγ′/γinterfaces and the formation of microcracks.As creep continues,the microcracks continue to expand until creep fracture occurs,which is the damage and fracture mechanism of the alloy at the later stage of creep at high temperature.

文摘The hot compression curves and deformed microstructures were investigated under various hot deformation conditions in three states:hot isostatic pressing(HIP,A1),HIP+hot extrusion at 1100℃(A2),and HIP+hot extrusion at 1150℃(A3).The results show that A2 sample,extruded at 1100℃ with uniform γ+γ′duplex microstructures,demonstrates excellent hot deformation behavior at both 1050 and 1100℃.The true stress-true strain curves of A2 sample maintain a hardening-softening equilibrium over a larger strain range,with post-deformation average grain size of 5μm.The as-HIPed A1 sample and 1150℃ extruded A3 sample exhibit a softening region in deformation curves at 1050℃,and the grain microstructures reflect an incomplete recrystallized state,i.e.combination of fine recrystallized grains and initial larger grains,characterized by a necklace-like microstructure.The predominant recrystallization mechanism for these samples is strain-induced boundary migration.At 1150℃ with a strain rate of 0.001 s^(-1),the influence of the initial microstructure on hot deformation behavior and resultant microstructure is relatively less pronounced,and postdeformation microstructures are fully recrystallized grains.Fine-grained microstructures are conducive to maximizing the hot deformation potential of alloy.By judiciously adjusting deformation regimes,a fine and uniform deformed microstructure can be obtained.
