We studied the phase transformation with the purpose of clarifying the influence of the nearest interatomic potential V Ni-Al （the nearest interatomic potential） on the precipitation process of γ＇ phase. The result demonstrates that there are two kinds of ordered phases, respective Llo and L12 in the early stage, and Llo phase transforms into L12 phase subsequently. For L12 phase, Ni atoms mainly occupy α site （face center positions）, while Al and Mo atoms occupy fl sites （the vertex positions）. When VNi-Al is increased by 10 MeV, the occupation probability of Ni atoms on α sites and Al atoms on β sites are enhanced. Enhanced VNi-Al facilitates clustering and ordering of Al atom, which promotes the formation of the γ＇ phase. At last, the simulation result was discussed by employing the thermodynamic stability.展开更多

The microstructural evolution of the alloy was characterized by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, and corrosion properties of the alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution were evaluated by immersion and electrochemical tests. The results indicate that the as-cast alloy is composed of the a-Mg matrix,lamellar long-period stacking-ordered（LPSO） structure and eutectic phase. The LPSO structure exists with more volume fraction in the alloy solution-treated at 440 °C, but disappears with the increase in the solution temperature. For all the solution-treated alloys, the precipitated phases are detected. The corrosion rates of the alloys decrease first and then increase slightly with the increase in the solution temperature, and the corrosion resistance of the solution-treated alloys is more than four times as good as that of the as-cast alloy. In addition, the alloy solution-treated at 480 °C for 6 h shows the best corrosion property.展开更多
