The results show that cerium can refine the microstructure of Zn 22%Al alloy, slow the grain growth and retain the equiaxial degree during aging. The strength of Zn 22%Al (0 07%～0 20%)Ce alloy and Zn 22%Al alloy remains constant after aging below the hot rolling temperature of 80 ℃, and cerium can improve the strength and the stability of mechanical properties of Zn 22%Al alloy.展开更多

The results indicate that the(α2+O+B2) three-phase microstructure with equiaxed grains was acquired by Ti-22 Al-24 Nb alloy billet forging, and the average size of the grains was about 300 μm. With the increase of solution time, the primary lath-shaped O phase began to dissolve, and then the equiaxial α2 phase started to dissolve, but the undissolved α2/O phase began to be equiaxial and grow. The grains of original B2 phase recrystallized and grew. After the 2 h solution treatment, the recrystallization of grains was completed basically and the average size of the grains was about 100 μm. After the 2.5 h solution treatment, the strength of the alloy decreased, and the plasticity increased. However, when the solution treatment increased to 3 h, the plasticity decreased but the strength increased. The optimal solution parameters of Ti-22 Al-24 Nb alloy were the holding time of 2 h, the solution temperature of 1 000 ?C, and water cooling. Excellent comprehensive mechanical properties can be accquired under these parameters. The tensile strength, the yield strength, the elasticity modulus, the elongation, and the section shrinkage were 950 MPa, 915 MPa, 90 GPa, 15.69% and 42.28%, respectively.展开更多
