摘要
The influence of mixed RE with c Ce 45%(mass fraction) on the high temperature mechanical properties and microstructure of ZA 27 alloys was investigated. The results show that RE elements can react with elements Al, Zn, Cu etc. to form some complex compounds which have high hardness and hot hardness and can disperse in grain boundaries or between dendrite crystals, so that the alloy can be refined and the deformation of matrix and the movement of grain boundaries at high temperature are hindered. The appropriate addition amount of RE can result in increase of tensile strength by about 30% and hardness by 25% and only a little decrease of elongation, but impact toughness has been improved at 150 ℃. It is also found that the strength at room temperature changes little although the plasticity and impact toughness decrease slightly.
