挤压态低合金化Mg-0.5Bi-0.5Y-0.2Zn合金的腐蚀行为及力学性能

研发一种新型低合金化Mg-Bi-Y-Zn合金系,该合金系在673 K的挤压温度下成功成型。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、电子背散射衍射(EBSD)、电化学试验和拉伸试验研究挤压态合金的腐蚀行为和拉伸性能。挤压后,合金表现出几乎完全的动态再结晶组织和典型的挤压织构,在晶粒内可以观察到一些亚微米级析出相。在SBF溶液中,合金的腐蚀模式由最初的点蚀为主转变为中间过程的丝状腐蚀为主;最后经长时间浸泡后,腐蚀模式转变为丝状腐蚀和局部晶粒脱落。挤压态Mg-0.5Bi-0.5Y-0.2Zn合金的屈服强度为237 MPa,极限抗拉强度为304 MPa,伸长率为31%,平均腐蚀速率为0.14 mm/a。由此可见,该合金表现出良好的拉伸性能和耐腐蚀性能匹配度,这主要归因于其均匀的晶粒结构和亚微米级析出相。因此本文所研发的Mg-0.5Bi-0.5Y-0.2Zn合金具有在生物医药领域的广阔应用前景。

Tailoring the microstructural characteristics and enhancing creep properties of as-cast Mg-5Bi-5Sn alloy through Mn addition

The creep properties, microstructural characteristics and creep mechanisms of as-cast Mg-5Bi-5Sn(BT55) alloy without and with Mn(BTM550) addition were investigated via creep at 423, 448, and 473 K as well as stresses of 30, 50 and 75 MPa. The results indicate that adding Mn can result in the formation of primary and the dynamic precipitated α-Mn phases. In addition, the morphology of the precipitated Mg_(3)Bi_(2) phase and the orientation relationship between Mg_(2)Sn precipitates and α-Mg can be effectively modified. Tailoring the microstructural characteristics is responsible for the improved creep performance of BTM550 alloy. The dominant creep mechanisms in BT55 and BTM550 alloys are dislocation cross-slip and climb, respectively. Furthermore, twinning and pyramidal slip play an assisting part in both alloys during creep process.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of a compound reinforced Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 alloy with long period stacking ordered phase and W phase

The microstructure evolution of Mg100-2xYxZnx （x=2, 2.5, 3, 3.5） alloys was investigated. Results show that the Mg100-2xYxZnx alloys are composed of a-Mg, long period stacking ordered （LPSO） phase and eutectic structure phase （W phase）, and the Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties. Subsequently, the microstructure evolution of the optimized alloy Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 during solidification and heat treatment processes was analyzed and discussed by means of OM, SEM, TEM, XRD and DTA. After heat treatment, the lamellar phase 14H-LPSO precipitated in a-Mg and W phase transforms into particle phase （MgyZn2）. Due to the compound reinforcement effect of the particle phase and LPSO phase （18R＋14H）, the mechanical properties of the alloy are enhanced. The tensile strength and elongation of the Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 alloy is improved by 9.1% and 31.3% to 215 MPa and 10.5%, respectively, after solid-solution treatment.

Unveiling the twinning and dynamic recrystallization behavior and the resultant texture evolution in the extruded Mg-Bi binary alloys during hot compression

The twinning behavior, dynamic recrystallization(DRX) mechanism and the resultant texture evolution of the extruded Mg-xBi(x=0.5 wt.%, 2.0 wt.%) alloys were systematically investigated during hot compression at the strain rate of 10 s^(-1) and temperature of 200℃. The results indicate that the types and intensities of the texture are greatly dependent on the twining behavior and DRX mechanism. At the initial stage, the evolution of texture is mainly domination by the formation and variation of {1012} extension twins, which is benefcial to the compression direction(CD)-tilted basal texture. With an increase in the strain, the texture evolution is more greatly regulated by the DRX mechanism. Besides, the pyramidal<c + a> slip and basal slip are activated during the compression process, resulting in the Schmid factors(SF) of pyramidal slip remain at ~0.4 and the average SFs for basal slip increase from 0.2 to0.34 as the strain increase. These fndings provide a new insight into controlling the texture of wrought Mg-Bi-based alloys during hot deformation processing.
