Site occupation evolution of alloying elements in L1_2 phase during phase transformation in Ni_(75)Al_(7.5)V_(17.5)

Correlation between site occupation evolution of alloying elements in L12 phase and growth of DO22 phase in Ni75Al7.5V17.5 was studied using microscopic phase field model. The results demonstrate that the growing process of DO22 phase can be divided into two stages. At the early stage, composition in the centre part of L12 phase almost remains unchanged, and the nucleation and growth of DO22 phase is controlled by the decrease of interface between L12 phases. At the late stage, part of V for growth of DO22 phase is supplied from the centre part of L12 phase and mainly comes from Al sublattice, the excess Ni spared from the decreasing L12 phase migrates into the centre part of L12 phase and occupies the Ni sublattices exclusively, while the excess Al mainly occupies the Al sublattice. At the late stage, the growth of DO22 phase is controlled by the evolution of antisite atoms and ternary additions in the centre part of L12 phase.

Site occupation evolution of alloying elements in Ni_3 V phase during phase transformation in Ni_(75)Al_(4.2)V_(20.8)

Based on the microscopic phase-field model, the correlation between site occupation evolution of alloying elements in Ni3V-DO22 phase and growth of Ni3Al-L12 phase was studied during the phase transformation of Ni75Al4.2V20.8. The results demonstrate that the growth of L12 phase can be divided into two stages： at the early stage, the composition of alloying elements in DO22 phase almost remains unchanged; at the late stage, the compositions of Ni and Al decrease while V increases in DO22 phase. Part of alloying elements for L12 phase growth are supplied from the site occupation evolution of alloying elements on three kinds of sublattices in DO22 phase. Ni is mainly supplied from V sublattice, and part of Al is supplied from NiⅠ and V sites at the centre of DO22 phase. The excessive V from the decreasing DO22 phase migrates into the centre of DO22 phase and mainly occupies V and NiII sites. It is the site occupation evolution of antisite atoms and ternary additions in DO22 phase that controls the growth rate of L12 phase at the late stage.

Atomic Scale Computer Simulation for Early Precipitation Process of Ni75Al6Vi9 Alloy

The atomic scale computer simulation for initial precipitation mechanism of Ni75Al6V19 alloy was carried out for the first time by employing the microscopic diffusion equation. The initial precipitation process was invest igated throughsimulating the atomic pictures and calculating the order parameters of the two kinds of ordered phases. Simulationresults show that the γ′ordered phase precipitated earlier than θ ordered phase by congruent ordering+spinodal decomposition mechanism and thus produced a nonstoicheometric γ′ single ordered phase. Then, the nonstoichiometricθ phase precipitated by a non-classical nucleation and growth mechanism at the APBS of γ′ phase.

Ni_(75)Al_(5.5)V_(19.5)合金沉淀行为的微观相场模拟

利用微观相场方法模拟了Ni75Al5.5V19.5合金两种有序相D022和L12随温度变化时的不同沉淀过程。发现过冷度在相变驱动力中处于主导地位。高温下D022相首先析出,之后L12相在D022相和无序相的界面以及D022相形成的界面处析出,L12相长大时同时向无序基体和D022相推移;低温下L12相先析出,D022相在L12相的界面处形核长大,同时L12相通过失稳分解由非化学计量相向平衡相转变,其尺寸减小。该合金最终两相体积分数同时达到平衡并基本相等。随温度降低,L12相由高温时的非经典形核与失稳分解的混合机制向低温时的失稳分解转变;D022相的沉淀机制由非经典形核与失稳分解的混合机制向低温时的非经典形核转变。
