Microstructural features of the alloy deformed with delay times varying from 0 to 180 s after achieving a reduction of ,-~52 % in the 13 stages was investigated through TEM and EBSD observations. The 14th pass of peak stresses after different delay times were gained. The peak stress decreases with the interstage delay time increasing, but the decreasing trend is gradually slower. Static recovery, metadynamic recrystallization, and/or static recrystallization can be found in the alloy during two passes. The recovery and recrystallization degree increases with longer interstage delay time. The static recovery is the main softening mechanism. Subgrain coalescence and subgrain growth together with particle-stimulated nucleation are the main nucleation mechanisms for static recrystallization.展开更多
The variations of coarse intermetallic particles in hot-extruded 7055 aluminum alloys with 0.041 wt%Fe and 0.024 wt%Si increasing to 0.272 wt%Fe and 0.134 wt%Si were investigated.The particle stimulated nucleation(PSN...The variations of coarse intermetallic particles in hot-extruded 7055 aluminum alloys with 0.041 wt%Fe and 0.024 wt%Si increasing to 0.272 wt%Fe and 0.134 wt%Si were investigated.The particle stimulated nucleation(PSN)behaviors for different kind of coarse particles were detailly analyzed by EBSD.Moreover,the effect of PSN responding to Fe and Si contents on recrystallization and tensile properties of 7055 alloys was evaluated.With increasing Fe and Si contents,the size and number density of coarseη/S particles are reduced,while the number densities of coarse Al7Cu2 Fe and Mg2Si particles are both increased and the coarse Al7Cu2 Fe particles transform from rod-like to irregular.More PSN recrystallized grains with predominant orientations deviated from the extruded fiber textures are stimulated by the irregular Al7Cu2 Fe and Mg2Si particles,because a higher degree of local non-uniform deformation is produced.The rod-like Al7Cu2 Fe particles cause the greatest degree of local non-uniform deformation owing to the largest aspect ratio,but the shape also restricts the area of particle deformation zone(PDZ)resulting in fewer PSN recrystallized grains.The irregularη/S particles give rise to the lowest degree of local non-uniform deformation and fewest PSN recrystallized grains with the major orientations close to the extruded fiber textures.Consequently,despite the number and size of coarseη/S particles are reduced,the proportion of high angle grain boundaries(HAGBs)is increased and the extruded fiber textures are weakened with Fe and Si contents increasing,because of the increased Al7Cu2 Fe and Mg2Si particles.The strength is slightly declined by the weakened<111>//ED(extrusion direction)fiber texture,while the elongation is reduced for a larger number of coarse particles and more HAGBs with higher Fe and Si contents.展开更多

Meanwhile, the effect of PRPP on the precipitates and corrosion resistance of 7055 aluminum alloy plate was investigated. The mechanisms were analyzed and discussed by optical microscopy (OM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) technique. Large PRPP can improve the corrosion resistance. For the plate rolled by small PRPP, the main precipitate is guinier-preston (GP) zone and continuous grain boundary precipitates (GBPs), while, for the plate rolled by large PRPP, the main precipitates are the GP zone and η precipitate, and the GBPs are discontinuous.展开更多
