In the present work, a novel strategy was reported to induce remarkable HDI strengthening in MMCs by selecting a reinforcing material with excellent geometrically necessary dislocation(GND) storage ability. The viability of the proposed strategy was tested on additively manufactured nickel matrix composites consisting of Inconel 625 alloy(IN625) as the matrix and high-entropy alloy VNbMoTa as the reinforcing material. It was found that the average grain size and dislocation density of the additively manufactured MMCs gradually decreased with the increase in the additional amount of VNbMoTa. All the samples possessed a similar two-layer VNbMoTa-matrix interface structure containing a high-entropy alloy layer and a Laves phase layer;however, the interface width varied. This two-layer interface could hold GND pile-ups without breaking to ensure a good load transfer effect, and ductile VNbMoTa particles demonstrated excellent GND storage capacity to induce significant HDI stress. The HDI stress for the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa sample was approximately 200 MPa higher than that for the pure IN625 alloy, resulting in an excellent strength-ductility synergy. The yield strength and elongation of the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa sample reached(1 032.5 ± 18.8)MPa and(11.8 ± 1.2)%, respectively. In addition, the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa composite also demonstrated superior mechanical properties at 650℃ that were comparable to those at room temperature, implying that VNbMoTa addition remarkably limited strength reduction caused by temperature. Deformable VNbMoTa particles effectively alleviated the stress concentration, delayed the crack initiation, generated more dislocations and pile-ups, and, in turn, improved the overall high-temperature strength of composites.展开更多

文摘Graphene,as the reinforcing phase of magnesium matrix composites,can effectively improve the material strength,elastic modulus,and other properties.However,the random distribution of graphene in the matrix(i.e.,random orientation angle)leads to different reinforcement effects on the matrix.To gain a deeper understanding of the impact of monolayer graphene(1 LG)with varying orientation angles on the properties of Mg-9 Al-1 Zn(AZ91(wt.%))magnesium alloy,molecular dynamics(MD)simulations are employed to analyze the mechanical properties of AZ91/1 LG composites under uniaxial tension.The simulation results show that Young's modulus and tensile strength of AZ91/1 LG composites decrease gradually with the increase of the orientation angle of the 1 LG.The Young's modulus and tensile strength of AZ91/1 LG composites can be improved by the 1 LG orientation angle of 0°~10°,where the two are enhanced by 21.7%and 19.7%respectively,at an orientation angle of 0°.However,the Young's modulus and tensile strength of 1 LG are decreased for orientation angles of 20°~90°.Atomic structure evolution analysis revealed that the deformation mechanism of AZ91/1 LG nanocomposites mainly depended on the load transfer ability of 1 LG with different orientation angles,the bonding ability with AZ91 magnesium alloy matrix and the change of dislocation density.By fitting the formula to the tensile strength of AZ91/1 LG composites with different orientation angles of 1 LG,it is found that the simulated data of the AZ91/1 LG composites containing a 1 LG has a maximum relative error of about 10%concerning the fitted empirical formula to calculate the data.The maximum relative error for AZ91/1 LG composites containing multiplate 1 LG with different orientation angles is 7%.In addition,the interaction between graphene and dislocations in AZ91 magnesium matrix was further explained by transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and phase-field-crystal(PFC)simulation.It can provide some technical guidance for the experimental process design of AZ91/1 LG composites.

文摘Graphene is considered promising reinforcement for improving the mechanical properties of the titanium alloys.However,overcoming the strength-ductility trade-off in graphene-reinforced titanium composites remains a challenge.In this study,the high-performance graphene nanoplatelets(GNPs)reinforced Ti-6Al-4V(TC4)matrix composites were successfully synthesized by combining the hot-pressing sintering and hot-rolling methods.Studies on the effect of GNPs on microstructures and properties of the as-sintered and as-rolled TC4 composites were systematically conducted.It indicates that the strength of the composites can be substantially enhanced by the addition of GNPs,primarily attributable to grain refinement and the pinning effect induced by in situ formed TiC particles.Moreover,the increase in the GNPs content results in a decrease in the plasticity of the as-sintered composites due to the aggregation of TiC.Additionally,hot rolling synchronously enhances the strength and plasticity of the composites by facilitating the homogeneous dispersion of TiC within the TC4 matrix.This work provided a potential strategy in designing the graphene-reinforced TC4 matrix composites with superior strength-ductility synergy.

文摘The effect of milling time on the microstructure and tribological properties of TiB_(2)−graphite hybrid reinforced Cu matrix composites was investigated.Hot-press sintering method was used to prepare the composites with different milling time(4,6,8,10 and 12 h),and the tribological behaviors were studied.The results revealed that the relative density and electric conductivity of the composites initially increased and then decreased with an increase in milling time.The composites fabricated by milling for 6 h had the highest relative density and electric conductivity,which are 99.1%and 42.8%(IACS),respectively.The friction coefficient and wear rate of the composites initially decreased and then increased with an increase in milling time.The lowest friction coefficient and wear rate were measured to be 0.234 and 1.974×10^(−5)mm^(3)/(N·m),respectively,for the composites synthesized after 6 h of milling.The primary wear mechanism of the composites milled for 6 h was abrasive wear.

文摘Basalt fibers/7075 aluminum matrix composites were studied to meet the demand of aluminum alloy drill pipes for material wear resistance.The composites with different basalt fiber additions were prepared by hot pressed sintering and hot extrusion.The mechanical properties as well as friction and wear properties of the composites were studied by microstructure analysis,tensile experiments,friction and wear experiments.The results showed that basalt fibers were oriented and uniformly distributed and led to local grain refinement in the alloy matrix.The hardness and elongation of the composites were improved.The friction coefficient of the composites increased and then decreased,and the maximum wear depth and wear amount decreased,then increased,then decreased again with the growth of basalt fiber addition.Meanwhile,the inclusion of basalt fibers mitigated the uneven wear of the extruded 7075 aluminum alloy.The value of wear depth difference of 7075-0.2BF was the smallest,and that of 7075-2.0BF was close to it.The maximum wear depth and wear volume the 7075-0.2BF and 7075-2.0BF were also the smallest.The inhibition of uneven wear by basalt fibers enhanced of wear resistance for 7075 aluminum alloy,which has reference significance for improving the performance of aluminum alloy drill pipes.

文摘This work used 5CrMnMo steel and titanium carbide(TiC)powders to fabricate particulate metal matrix composites(PMMCS).The composites’microstructure,hardness,and impact toughness were compared with four different titanium carbide ceramic particle sizes.The phase composition and microstructure of composites were studied.Vickers hardness and Charpy impact tests were employed to analyze composites’hardness and impact ductility,respectively.The results showed that the four groups of composites are mainly composed of martensite,trace residual austenite,and titanium carbide(undissolved TiC and primary TiC particles).With the growth of the ceramic particle dimension in the composite layer,the number of primary titanium carbide ceramics gradually decreased.When the initial ceramic particle size was small,it tended to generate dendritic primary TiC,and when the particle size was large,it tended to generate polygons and ellipsoids.Furthermore,with the growth of titanium carbide ceramic particle dimension in the composites,the hardness of the composites decreased but the impact toughness of the composites rose first and then descended.When the ceramic particle size was 50-75μm,the composite had the highest hardness,and the impact energy of the composites was the highest,which is 8 J.This was because there were more undissolved titanium carbide ceramics in the composite,and there was a thicker matrix metal between the ceramic particles.

文摘To investigate the key factors that cause ZrB_(2)/AA6111 and(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 aluminum matrix composites(AMCs)made via in situ reaction to behave differently in terms of friction and wear.Room-temperature dry sliding tribological behavior of AA6111 Al alloys,ZrB_(2)/AA6111,and(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 AMCs against silicon nitride(Si_(3)N_(4))counterparts were investigated.The study showed that AA6111/Al alloy had the highest wear rate and the most unstable coefficient of friction(COF),indicating the worst abrasion resistance.(ZrB_(2)+Al_(3)Zr)/AA6111 AMCs exhibit a lower wear rate and higher COF than ZrB_(2)/AA6111 AMCs.The result proved that the Al_(3)Zr particles prepared by the in-situ reaction are strongly bonded(lattice misfitδ=2.7%)to the Al matrix and are not easily stripped from the substrate.ZrB_(2)/AA6111 AMCs exhibited a lower COF attributed to the tribochemical reaction inducing the formation of more boric acid(H_(3)BO_(3))films with a graphite-like structure having a lubricating effect.

文摘There are few studies on the preparation of magnesium matrix composites(MMCs)by rapid solidification.This study aims to add minor amounts of Ti particles to AZ91 alloy and prepare AZ91/Ti_(P) MMC ribbon by Melt-Spinning(MS).The effects of Ti particle content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ91/Ti_(P) ribbon were studied by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD),X-ray diffraction(XRD),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),three-dimensional profiling(3D-P)and calculation of supercooling rate.The results show that the grain refinement of AZ91 ribbon prepared by rapid solidification is very significant and the grain refinement is further improved with the increase of Ti particle content;at the same time,the growth of β-Mg_(17)Al_(12) is inhibited,and the interface reaction between Ti and Mg leads to the formation of interfaces around Ti particles.These nano-scale Ti_(3)Al and Al_(3)Ti interface compounds uniformly wrap the Ti particles.It is believed that the addition of Ti particles not only helps to refine the surrounding grains,but also increases the dislocations in the MMC ribbon and forms a good interface,thereby improving the mechanical properties.Compared with AZ91 alloy ribbon,the yield strength and tensile strength of MMC material containing 5 wt.%Ti particles increased by 25.0%and 22.7% respectively.The elongation only decreased by 10.9%.AZ91/5 wt.%Ti_(P) ribbon has a better balance between high strength and high elongation.The analysis shows that the strengthening effect of this mechanical property is mainly attributed to fine grain strengthening,dislocation strengthening and non-basal slip.

文摘The surface of MoSi2-SiB6/phenolic resin matrix composites was modified by mica,and the thermal oxidation behavior of the composites and the mechanical properties of the pyrolysis products were studied.The results showed that the mica improved the thermal properties of the composites,the thermal expansion coefficient decreased,and the liquid phase formation caused the composites to shrink and increase the density.The flexural strength of mica surface modified composites not only increased to 78.64MPa after thermal treatment at 800-1200℃,but reached 83.02 MPa after high temperature treatment at1400℃.The improvement of the mechanical properties of the residual product benefits from the formation of high temperature ceramic phases such as Mo_(2)C and MoB,and the improvement of the shear strength of the composites by the mica.The shear strength of MBm5-2 at room temperature reached 33.08 MPa,indicating that the improvement of the interlayer properties of the composites further improved its mechanical properties.

文摘Hetero-deformation induced(HDI) strengthening generally yields a weak effect on the mechanical property improvement of particle-reinforced metal matrix composites(MMCs). In the present work, a novel strategy was reported to induce remarkable HDI strengthening in MMCs by selecting a reinforcing material with excellent geometrically necessary dislocation(GND) storage ability. The viability of the proposed strategy was tested on additively manufactured nickel matrix composites consisting of Inconel 625 alloy(IN625) as the matrix and high-entropy alloy VNbMoTa as the reinforcing material. It was found that the average grain size and dislocation density of the additively manufactured MMCs gradually decreased with the increase in the additional amount of VNbMoTa. All the samples possessed a similar two-layer VNbMoTa-matrix interface structure containing a high-entropy alloy layer and a Laves phase layer;however, the interface width varied. This two-layer interface could hold GND pile-ups without breaking to ensure a good load transfer effect, and ductile VNbMoTa particles demonstrated excellent GND storage capacity to induce significant HDI stress. The HDI stress for the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa sample was approximately 200 MPa higher than that for the pure IN625 alloy, resulting in an excellent strength-ductility synergy. The yield strength and elongation of the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa sample reached(1 032.5 ± 18.8)MPa and(11.8 ± 1.2)%, respectively. In addition, the IN625-(10 wt%)VNbMoTa composite also demonstrated superior mechanical properties at 650℃ that were comparable to those at room temperature, implying that VNbMoTa addition remarkably limited strength reduction caused by temperature. Deformable VNbMoTa particles effectively alleviated the stress concentration, delayed the crack initiation, generated more dislocations and pile-ups, and, in turn, improved the overall high-temperature strength of composites.

文摘B2-CuZr phase reinforced amorphous alloy matrix composites has become one of the research hotspots in the field of materials science due to the“transformation-induced plasticity”phenomenon,which makes the composites show better macroscopic plastic deformability and obvious work-hardening behavior compared to the conventional amorphous alloy matrix composites reinforced with ductile phases.However,the in-situ metastable B2-CuZr phase tends to undergo eutectoid decomposition during solidification,and the volume fraction,size,and distribution of B2-CuZr phase are difficult to control,which limits the development and application of these materials.To date,much efforts have been made to solve the above problems through composition optimization,casting parameter tailoring,and post-processing technique.In this study,a review was given based on relevant studies,focusing on the predictive approach,reinforcing mechanism,and microstructure tailoring methods of B2-CuZr phase reinforced amorphous alloy matrix composites.The research focus and future prospects were also given for the future development of the present composite system.

文摘In this study,AZ91D(Mg-9Al-Zn)alloys reinforced with 2 vol%TC4(Ti-6Al-4V)particles fabricated by semi-solid stir casting were extruded at different ratios,resulting in observed grain refinement effects.The research findings demonstrate that both TC4 andβ-Mg_(17)Al_(12) phases contribute to promoting dynamic recrystallization(DRX)nucleation.With increasing extrusion ratio,theβ-phase(Mg_(17)Al_(12))gradually fractures into smaller particles,leading to progressive grain refinement.Furthermore,the transition from〈01-10〉fiber texture to non-basal texture in theα-Mg matrix after hot extrusion is attributed to improved DRX behavior and activation of non-basal slip.As the extrusion ratio increases,the tensile strength and elongation(EL)of TC4_(p)/AZ91D composite improve significantly,reaching optimum comprehensive mechanical properties at an extrusion of 40:1 with a yield strength(YS)of 257 MPa,an ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 357 MPa,and an EL of 9.7%.This remarkable strengthening effect is primarily attributed toβ-phase reinforcement,grain refinement strengthening,and strain hardening.

文摘Overcoming the strength and ductility trade-off is conducive to expanding the application prospects of the Mg matrix composites.A new approach of using the master alloy containing particulate reinforcements to achieve the strength and ductility synergy in the Mg matrix composites was proposed,which can induce the grain size bimodal structure by regulating the dynamic recrystallization(DRX).Specifically,a novel AlN-Al master alloy was prepared via powder metallurgy to fabricate the AlN/ZK60 composite,and the effects of adding the AlN-Al master alloy on microstructure evolution related to the strength and ductility synergy in the composite were thoughtfully investigated,involving precipitation,grain size,and DRX behavior.The reaction between the Al in the master alloy and the Zr in the ZK60 Mg alloy suppressed the grain refinement,and the coarse grains were further formed after the solution treatment on the as-cast composite.Subsequently,deformation heterogeneity between the AlN and Mg matrix during the hot extrusion induced discontinuous dynamic recrystallization(DDRX)and promoted fine grain fraction.The combination formed the bimodal structure in the AlN/ZK60 composite,and coarse and fine grains acted as hard and soft zones,respectively,during the room temperature deformation.The hard zone was enhanced by the basal texture strengthening,and the ductility was improved due to the promotion of the basalslipping in the soft zone,jointly leading to the strength and ductility synergy in the AlN/ZK60 composite for the ultimate tensile strength increased by ~7.4%while maintaining the same elongation compared with the ZK60 Mg alloy.

文摘Magnesium matrix composites(MMCs)combine exceptional low density,high specific strength,and stiffness,positioning them as critical materials for aerospace,automotive,and electronics industries.This review highlights recent progress in the fabrication of Ti-Mg composites and analyzes the mechanisms behind their enhanced mechanical properties.A key focus is the interfacial deformation incompatibility between Ti and Mg phases,which generates strain gradients and promotes the accumulation of geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)at the interface.This process not only improves strain hardening and ductility but also reveals the need for advanced micromechanical models to capture the plastic behavior of both phases.The review critically examines the impact of different Mg matrix types(AZ,AM,VW series)and the role of interfacial product morphology and size on bonding and overall performance.Furthermore,Ti reinforcement endows the composites with superior wear resistance and thermal conductivity,indicating broad application potential.

文摘In this work,the microstructure evolution and mechanical behavior of extruded SiC/ZA63 Mg matrix composites are investigated via combined experimental study and three-dimensionalfinite element modelling(3D FEM)based on the actual 3D microstructure achieved by synchrotron tomography.The results show that the average grain size of composite increases from 0.57μm of 8μm-SiC/ZA63 to 8.73μm of 50μm-SiC/ZA63.The type of texture transforms from the typicalfiber texture in 8μm-SiC/ZA63 to intense basal texture in 50μm-SiC/ZA63 composite and the intensity of texture increases sharply with increase of SiC particle size.The dynamic recrystallization(DRX)mechanism is also changed with increasing SiC particle size.Experimental and simulation results verify that the strength and elongation both decrease with increase of SiC particle size.The 8μm-SiC/ZA63 composite possesses the optimal mechanical property with yield strength(YS)of 383 MPa,ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 424 MPa and elongation of 6.3%.The outstanding mechanical property is attributed to the ultrafine grain size,high-density precipitates and dislocation,good loading transfer effect and the interface bonding between SiC and matrix,as well as the weakened basal texture.The simulation results reveal that the micro-cracks tend to initiate at the interface between SiC and matrix,and then propagate along the interface between particle and Mg matrix or at the high strain and stress regions,and further connect with other micro-cracks.The main fracture mechanism in 8μm-SiC/ZA63 composite is ductile damage of matrix and interfacial debonding.With the increase of particle size,interface strength and particle strength decrease,and interface debonding and particle rupture become the main fracture mechanism in the 30μm-and 50μm-SiC/ZA63 composites.

文摘Many properties of Mg matrix composites are mutually incompatible,and even completely repel each other.Here,we constructed a magnetic layered component in Mg matrix composite reinforced with reduced graphene oxide(RGO)through an in-situ interface reaction strategy,achieving simultaneous improvement in the strength,ductility,and electromagnetic shielding performance of the composite.The magnetic component is generated by the in-situ reaction of Fe_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles encapsulated on RGO with the Mg matrix.The superior strength-ductility synergy originates from layered heterostructure,which actives non-basal dislocations and enables a stable microcrackmultiplication.The heterogeneous layered structure strengthens the multi-level reflection of electromagnetic wave(EMW)inside the composite.The in-situ interfacial reaction introduces abundant of heterogeneous interfaces into the composites,which improves the interfacial polarization loss ability of the composites.The magnetic RGO layer can provide shape anisotropy that breaks the Snoek limit,thus improving the magnetic loss ability of composite in high-frequency electromagnetic fields.The synergistic action of multiple EMW loss mechanisms improves the electromagnetic shielding performance of composite.The current study emphasizes the influence of interface structure on the mechanical and functional properties of composites,and presents a promising approach for the development of structure/functional integrated composites with enhanced properties.

文摘Heterogeneous composites have strong anisotropy and are prone to dynamic recrystallization during hot compression,making the me-chanical response highly nonlinear.Therefore,it is a very challenging task to intellectually judge the thermal deformation characteristics of magnesium matrix composites(MgMCs).In view of this,this paper introduces a method to accurately solve the thermoplastic deformation of composites.Firstly,a hot compression constitutive model of magnesium matrix composites based on stress softening correction was established.Secondly,the complex quasi-realistic micromechanics modeling of heterogeneous magnesium matrix composites was conducted.By introducing the recrystallization softening factor and strain parameter into the constitutive equation,the accurate prediction of the global rheological response of the composites was realized,and the accuracy of the new constitutive model was proved.Finally,the thermal pro-cessing map of magnesium matrix composites was established,and the suitable processing range was chosen.This paper has certain guiding values for the prediction of the thermodynamic response and thermal processing of magnesium matrix composites.

文摘Fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composites(FRCMCs)are the preferred materials for safety critical components in the fields of aerospace,nuclear engineering,and transportation,with broad market and application prospects.However,due to the characteristics of multiphase,heterogeneity,and anisotropy,key issues such as poor adhesion,high porosity,and crack propagation urgently need to be addressed in the fabrication and machining of FRCMCs.With the increasing demand for FRCMCs parts,high-quality and reliable design and fabrication,performance evaluation,and precision manufacturing have become a series of hot issues.There is a lack of systematic review in capturing the current research status and development direction of FRCMCs fabrication and machining.This research aims to comprehensively review and critically evaluate the existing understanding of the fabrication and machining of FRCMCs.This study can provide scientists with a deeper understanding of the shape control mechanism of FRCMCs fabrication and machining,the theoretical basis of material synchronous removal,machining performance,and development direction.Firstly,the basic characteristics and application background of FRCMCs are introduced.Secondly,by comparing and analyzing the typical fabrication process of FRCMCs,the advantages,disadvantages,and performance evaluation of different processes are comprehensively evaluated.Thirdly,the material removal mechanisms and machining performance evaluation standards of traditional mechanical machining technologies(drilling,milling,grinding)and non-traditional mechanical machining technologies(ultrasonic,laser,water jet,discharge,wire saw,and multi-field hybrid machining)are discussed and analyzed.Finally,the challenges,development trends,and prospects faced by FRCMCs in the fields of fabrication,machining,and application are analyzed.This study not only elucidates the basic processes and key difficulties in the fabrication of FRCMCs,but also provides valuable insights for low-damage machining.

文摘Metallic glass matrix composites(BMGCs)with compositions of[(Zr_(0.5)Cu_(0.5))_(0.925)Al_(0.07)Sn_(0.005)]_(100-x)Ta_(x)(atomic fraction,%,x=3,5,7)were successfully prepared via dealloying in metallic melt.The reinforcing phase in these alloys has core-shell hybrid structure with Ta-rich particles as core and B2-CuZr as shell.In this method,the dealloyed Ta from Zr-Ta pre-alloys maintained in solid state and aggregated to form the fine Ta-rich phase in the final products.This effectively decreases the size of Ta-rich phase compared with that prepared via conventional arc-melting,where the Ta-rich phase was formed through dissolving and precipitation.Among the three compositions,[(Zr_(0.5)Cu_(0.5))_(0.925)Al_(0.07)Sn_(0.005)]_(95)Ta_(5) showed the highest plastic strain of 11.2%,much higher than that of the arc-melted counterparts(4.3%).Such improvement in mechanical properties was related with the refined core-shell hybrid reinforcing structure,which could hinder the rapid propagation of main shear band more efficiently and cause them to branch and proliferate at the interface.
