Evolution of twins and texture and its effects on mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets under different rolling process parameters

In order to investigate the dependence of microstructure and mechanical properties on the rolling process parameters, AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets with different grain sizes, basal texture intensities and twinning types were obtained using hot rolling at various temperatures and reductions. The volume fractions of the extension, contraction and secondary twins in the as-rolled sheets depend on the grain size. The highest volume fractions of three types of twins are obtained at 523 K under the reduction of 10% when the average grain size value is the maximum. The critical reductions for complete dynamic recrystallization are 30% at 523 K and 40% at 473 K. The increase of yield strength is ascribed to both grain-refinement strengthening and basal texture strengthening at the first stage. When the grain size does not decrease with increasing the reduction, the yield strength is mainly influenced by the texture weakening.

Effect of minor Zr and Sc on microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Cr-V alloys

The effects of minor contents of Zr and Sc on the microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Cr-V alloy were studied. The results show that the effects of minor Zr and Sc on the as-cast grain refinement in the ingots, the improvement in the strength of the as-extruded alloys and the restriction of high angle grain boundaries in the aged alloys can be sorted as Al3ScAl3 （Zr,Sc）Al3Zr. None of them could stop the nucleation of recrystallization, but Al3 （Zr,Sc） phase is a more effective inhibitor of dislocation movement compared to Al3 Sc in the aged alloys. Compared with the mechanical properties of the aged alloy added only 0.15% Sc, the joint addition of Zr and Sc to the alloy leads to a very slight decrease in strength with even no cost of ductility. Taking both the production cost and the little bad influence on mechanical properties into consideration, an optimal content of Zr and Sc in the Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Cr-V alloy to substitute 0.15% Sc is 0.13% Zr＋0.03% Sc.

Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy produced by SSTT and RAP route in semi-solid state

The microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of a ZK60 magnesium alloy produced by the semi-solid thermal transformation （SSTT） route and the recrystallization and partial melting （RAP） route were studied, respectively. The microstructure evolution during partial remelting was studied at different temperatures for different time. The tensile mechanical properties of thixoformed components by the two routes at room temperature were examined. The results show that coalescence is dominant in the SSTT alloy and Ostwald ripening is dominant in the RAP alloy. Compared with the SSTT route, the RAP route can produce finer semi-solid microstructure under the similar isothermal holding condition. The microstructure of the RAP alloy is much more spheroidized compared with the SSTT alloy. Thixoforming for the ZK60 magnesium alloy produced by the SSTT and RAP route results in successful filling of the die, and the thixoforming process improves the mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy. The RAP alloy shows significantly advantageous mechanical properties over that of the SSTT alloy.

Effects of Nd and rotary forging on mechanical properties of AZ71 Mg alloys

The effects of Nd addition on the mechanical properties and plastic deformability of AZ71 Mg alloys were investigated.0.5%-2.0%（mass fraction） Nd was added to AZ71 Mg alloys.The grain size and the amount of brittle β-Mg17Al12 phase reduce with increasing the Nd addition,while nanosized AlxNdy precipitates form.In combination with 32% rotary forging and subsequent annealing,the grain size of Nd-added AZ71 Mg alloys reduces greatly from over 350 μm to below 30 μm.Both tensile strength and ductility increase with the Nd addition up to 1.0%.The addition of Nd beyond 1.0% leads to the aggregations of rod-shaped Al11Nd3 and blocky Al2 Nd precipitates,thereby deteriorating both strength and ductility.The 1.0% Nd-added AZ71 Mg alloy shows tensile strength up to 253 MPa and elongation of 10.7%.It is concluded that adding 1.0% Nd to AZ71 Mg alloy yields the optimum toughness,whether under as-cast or rotary forging and annealing conditions.

Effects of Y addition on microstructure and properties of Al-Zr alloys

Microstructure and properties of Al-0.30Zr and Al-0.30Zr-0.08Y （mass fraction, %） alloys were investigated by electrical conductivity measurements, microhardness tests, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. Micron-sized primary Al3Y phases form within grains and at grain boundaries simultaneously as product of eutectic reaction in as-cast Al-Zr--Y alloys. The addition of Y obviously accelerates the precipitation kinetics of Al3Zr （Ll2） in Al-Zr-Y alloys. The Al-Zr-Y alloys exhibit greater electrical conductivity during aging due to formation of increased volume fractions of Al3（Zr, Y） precipitates. In ternary Al-Zr-Y alloys, spheroidal L l2-structured Al3（Zr, Y） precipitates with increased number density and smaller mean radius were observed. The Al-0.30Zr-0.08Y alloys show improved recrystallization resistance compared with Al-0.30Zr alloys

Microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-6Zn-2.5Mg-1.8Cu alloy prepared by squeeze casting and solid hot extrusion

Al-6Zn-2.5Mg-1.8Cu alloy ingots were prepared by squeeze casting under different specific pressures,and the fresh ingot with best mechanical properties was solid hot extruded.With the increase of the specific pressure from 0 to 250 MPa,the dendrites became round and small.Because the applied pressure increased the solid solubility of alloying elements,the number of MgZn2 phases decreased.When the specific pressure increased from 250 MPa to 350 MPa,the grain size increased.After solid hot extrusion,the a（Al） grains were refined obviously and the MgZn2 phases were uniformly dispersed in the microstructure.After solid hot extrusion,the ultimate tensile strength was 605.67 MPa and the elongation was 8.1%,which were improved about 32.22%and15.71%,respectively,compared with those of the metal mold casting alloy.The fracture modes of the billet prepared by the metal mold casting and by squeeze casting were intergranular and quasi-cleavage fractures,respectively,whereas,that of the solid hot extrusion was mainly dimple fracture.The refined crystalline strengthening was the main reason to improve the strength and elongation of alloy.

Effect of Sc and Zr on recrystallization behavior of 7075 aluminum alloy

The static recrystallization behavior of 7075 aluminum alloy containing Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase prepared by casting and the relationship between recrystallization behavior and mechanical properties were studied.The addition of Sc and Zr made the Sc−Zr−7075 aluminum alloy remain the most of fibrous structure and high-density dislocations formed in the extrusion process,resulting in the recrystallization fraction of the alloy decreasing from 35%to 22%,and the corresponding fraction of substructure increasing from 59%to 67%.The Sc and Zr effectively inhibited the recrystallization behavior of 7075 aluminum alloy mainly,which was attributed to the fact that the existence of fine and coherent Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)phase(r=35 nm,f=1.8×10^(−3))strongly pined the dislocations and grain boundaries,preventing the dislocations from rearranging into sub-grain boundaries and from developing into high angle grain boundaries,and further hindering the formation and growth of recrystallized core of the alloy.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast and extruded biomedical Mg-Zn-Y-Zr-Ca alloy at different temperatures

A type of biomedical magnesium alloy Mg-3Zn-1Y-0.6Zr-0.5Ca was cast and extruded at three extrusion temperatures of 270, 300 and 330 °C. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the cast and extruded alloys, tailored at different extrusion parameters, were investigated using tensile tests, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy and electron backscattered diffraction. Optimum comprehensive mechanical properties are achieved in the alloy extruded at 270 °C, the ultimate tensile strength and the elongation reach 315 MPa and 26%, respectively, which is deemed to be associated with the grain refinement, weak basal texture and second phases strengthening. After hot extrusion, extensive dynamic recrystallization is found in the Mg-3Zn-1Y-0.6Zr-0.5Ca alloy. Continuous Mg3YZn6 phase bands are gradually broken into discontinuous chain-like or dot-like structures, and the grains distribute more uniformly. The as-extruded Mg-3Zn-1Y-0.6Zr-0.5Ca alloy exhibits a weak texture with (0001) basal planes parallel to the extrusion direction.

Fabrication of fine-grained,high strength and toughness Mg alloy by extrusion−shearing process

A novel extrusion-shearing(ES) composite process was designed to fabricate fine-grained, high strength and tough magnesium alloy. The structural parameters of an ES die were optimized by conducting an orthogonal simulation experiment using finite element software Deform-3D, and Mg-3 Zn-0.6 Ca-0.6 Zr(ZXK310) alloy was processed using the ES die. The results show that the optimized structural parameters of ES die are extrusion angle(α) of 90°, extrusion section height(h) of 15 mm and inner fillet radius(r) of 10 mm. After ES at an extrusion temperature and a die temperature of 350 °C, ZXK310 alloy exhibited good ES forming ability, and obvious dynamic recrystallization occurred in the forming area. The grain size decreased from 1.42 μm of extrusion area to 0.85 μm of the forming area. Owing to the pinning of second phase and formation of ultrafine grains, the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation of alloy reached 362 MPa, 289 MPa and 21.7%, respectively.

Heterogeneous structure-induced strength and ductility synergy of α-brass subjected to rapid cooling friction stir welding

The 2 mm-thickα-brass plates were successfully joined using conventional friction stir welding(CFSW)with air cooling and rapid cooling friction stir welding(RCFSW)with liquid CO2 cooling.The microstructure and mechanical properties of the two welds were carefully investigated by electron back-scattered diffraction and transmission electron microscopy.The stir zone of CFSW exhibited homogeneous equiaxed grains,while the stir zone of RCFSW showed a heterogeneous grain structure,i.e.ultrafine grains containing massive dislocations and nano twins.Compared with the CFSW,yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of RCFSW were increased by 31%and 24%,respectively.The enhanced yield strength and improved strain hardening capacity were attributed to grain boundary strengthening and dislocation strengthening.Furthermore,good ductility was achieved due to the released stress concentration of the nano twins caused by the plastic deformation.

Dynamic recrystallization and mechanical properties of high-strain-rate hot rolled Mg-5Zn alloys with addition of Ca and Sr

Effects of the sole and the combined addition of Ca and Sr on microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast and as-rolled Mg-5 Zn alloys were carefully investigated by OM,SEM,hot-compression testing and tensile testing.Ca is more effective than Sr in the microstructural refinement of as-cast alloys.High-strain-rate rolling(HSRR)produces more deformed twins and thus provides more nucleation sites for dynamic recrystallization(DRX).The addition of Ca and Sr can promote dynamic precipitation during HSRR,the precipitation process would consume the storage energy and thus increases the critical strain value of DRX,resulting in the retarded DRX effect by the addition of Ca and/or Sr.The as-rolled Mg-5 Zn-0.4 Ca-0.2 Sr alloy exhibits a good combination of strength and ductility,with the ultimate tensile strength of 317 MPa,the yield strength of 235 MPa and the elongation to rupture of 24%.

A Novel Energy-regenerative Active Suspension for Vehicles

In order to regenerate electric power from the vibration excited by road unevenness,a novel energy- regenerative active suspension for vehicles was proposed with the description of its structure and its working principle with two modes switched in different operating conditions.Then,the novel active system was modeled and simulated to show the performance improvement in ride comfort in its electrical motor mode.Finally,the performance tests of the actuator prototype were carried out,which proves its capability for damping in its regenerative braking mode.The research results can provide useful guidance for the similar electrical active suspension design and development.

Mechanical properties of Mg-Gd-Zr alloy by Nd addition combined with hot extrusion

The effect of Nd addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-extruded Mg-9Gd-0.5Zr(wt.%) alloy was investigated. The Mg-9Gd-0.5Zr and Mg-9Gd-2Nd-0.5Zr alloys were extruded at 673 K. The elongated non-dynamic recrystallized(un-DRXed) grains disappear after adding Nd, and uniformly distributed dynamic recrystallized grains with a grain size of 1.68 μm were obtained in the alloy. In addition, numerous nano-Mg5(Gd,Nd)particles were found to precipitate dynamically in the Mg-9Gd-2Nd-0.5Zr alloy, which gave rise to the dynamic recrystallization process via providing nucleation energy through hindering the release of deformation energy and promoting an increase in the strength through the Orowan strengthening mechanism. Moreover, the dynamically recrystallized(DRXed) grains have a weak texture, which plays a significant role in improving the ductility. Therefore,the Nd addition favors the improvement of strength and elongation for the as-extruded Mg-9Gd-0.5Zr alloy,simultaneously.

Modeling of metadynamic recrystallization kinetics after hot deformation of low-alloy steel Q345B

Based on the steady-state strain measured by single-pass hot compression tests,the method by a double-pass hot compression testing was developed to measure the metadynamic-recrystallization kinetics.The metadynamic recrystallization behavior of low-alloy steel Q345B during hot compression deformation was investigated in the temperature range of 1 000-1 100℃,the strain rate range of 0.01-0.10 s -1 and the interpass time range of 0.5-50 s on a Gleeble-3500 thermo-simulation machine.The results show that metadynamic recrystallization during the interpass time can be observed.As the deformation temperature and strain rate increase,softening caused by metadynamic recrystallization is obvious.According to the data of thermo-simulation,the metadynamic recrystallization activation energy is obtained to be Qmd=100.674 kJ/mol and metadynamic recrystallization kinetics model is set up.Finally,the error analysis of metadynamic recrystallization kinetics model proves that the model has high accuracy(correlation coefficient R=0.988 6).

Effect of Al addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg−Zn−Sn−Mn alloy

The microstructure and properties of the as-cast,as-homogenized and as-extruded Mg−6Zn−4Sn−1Mn(ZTM641)alloy with various Al contents(0,0.5,1,2,3 and 4 wt.%)were investigated by OM,XRD,DSC,SEM,TEM and uniaxial tensile tests.The results show that when the Al content is not higher than 0.5%,the alloys are mainly composed of α-Mg,Mg_(2)Sn,Al_(8)Mn_(5)and Mg_(7)Zn_(3)phases.When the Al content is higher than 0.5%,the alloys mainly consist ofα-Mg,Mg_(2)Sn,MgZn,Mg_(32)(Al,Zn)_(49),Al_(2)Mg_(5)Zn_(2),Al_(11)Mn_(4)and Al_(8)Mn_(5)phases.A small amount of Al(≤1%)can increase the proportion of fine dynamic recrystallized(DRXed)grains during hot-extrusion process.The roomtemperature tensile test results show that the ZTM641−1Al alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties,in which the ultimate tensile strength is 332 MPa,yield strength is 221 MPa and the elongation is 15%.Elevatedtemperature tensile test results at 150 and 200℃ show that ZTM641−2Al alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties.

Influence of different solution methods on microstructure, precipitation behavior and mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Si alloy

The effects of different solution methods on microstructure, mechanical properties and precipitation behavior of Al-Mg-Si alloy were investigated by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, tensile test, and differential scanning calorimetry. The results revealed that the recrystallized grains of the alloy after the solution treatment with hot air became smaller and more uniform, compared with solution treatment with electrical resistance. The texture of the alloy after two solution treatment methods was different. More rotated cube components were formed through solution treatment with electrical resistance, which was better for improving the drawability of the alloy. The strength of the alloy under the solution treatment with hot air was higher before stamping, because of the small uniform grains and many clusters in the matrix. The alloy solution treated with hot air also possessed good bake hardenability, because the transformation occurred on more clusters in the matrix.

Influence of dynamic recrystallization on microstructure and mechanical properties of welding zone in Al-Mg-Si aluminum profile during porthole die extrusion

The effect of dynamic recrystallization(DRX)on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 6063 aluminum alloy profile during porthole die extrusion was studied through experiment and simulation.The grain morphology was observed by means of electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)technology.The results show that,at low ram speeds,increasing the ram speed caused an increase in DRX fraction due to the increase of temperature and strain rate.In contrast,at high ram speeds,further increasing ram speed had much less effect on the temperature,and the DRX faction decreased due to high stain rates.The microhardness and fraction of low angle boundaries in the welding zones were lower than those in the matrix zones.The grain size in the welding zone was smaller than that in the matrix zone due to lower DRX fraction.The decrease of grain size and increase of extrudate temperature were beneficial to the improvement of microhardness.

Effect of annealing temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of cold-rolled commercially pure titanium sheets

The strength of traditional commercially pure titanium(CP-Ti) alloys often fails to meet the demand of structural materials. In order to enhance their mechanical properties, the cold-rolled CP-Ti alloys were annealed at different temperatures, and the recrystallization behavior and texture evolution were investigated. It was found that the bimodal microstructure(equiaxed and elongated grains) was formed after partial recrystallization, and the corresponding sample exhibited an excellent combination of ultimate tensile strength(702 MPa) and total elongation(36.4%). The recrystallization nucleation of CP-Ti sheets occurred preferentially in the high strain and the high-angle grain boundaries(HAGBs) regions. Meanwhile, the internal misorientations of the deformed heterogeneous grains increased and transformed into HAGBs, which further promoted the recrystallization nucleation. The main recrystallization texture was basal TD-split texture transformed from cold-rolled basal RD-split texture, and the oriented nucleation played a dominated role during recrystallization.

Microstructure and tensile properties of rapid-cooling friction-stir-welded AZ31B Mg alloy along thickness direction

Rapid-cooling friction-stir-welding(FSW)was used to join AZ31B magnesium alloy plates of 6 mm in thickness.The microstructure and mechanical properties in thickness direction were carefully investigated with electron backscattered diffractometer,and transmission electron microscope.The obtained results showed that ultrafine grains with high dislocation density were obtained in the top region of the weld due to liquid CO2 cooling.A large number of{1012}twins and second-phase particles were also induced in these refined grains.The basal texture intensity was significantly reduced due to the appearance of{1012}twins.The top region showed the higher strength and elongation compared with the bottom region,and the welding efficiency reached 93%.This work provided a simple and efficient strategy for manufacturing a gradient structure in the FSW Mg alloy joint.
