The results show that the addition of Al2O3P increases the hardness values of the matrix at both room and high temperature and improves the wear resistance of the material.The hardness values and the wear resistance of the composite rise with the increase of the particle volume fraction or the decrease of the particle size.The raising of test temperature results in a rapid descending of its hardness values.However, the addition of Al2O3P improves the property of high temperature resistance of Zn-Al alloys significantly.Moreover,the effect of quenching, tempering or cycling heat treatment on the hardness values of the composite is also studied.展开更多

In these particles low melting point elements such as As and Sb also were detected. According to the result of simulative calculation of segregation, it is shown that La and P enrich so strongly in the process of solidification that their concentrations can satisfy thermodynamic condition to forme LaP compound or meet the requirements to forme eutectic phase in the last stage of solidification. Therefore, the particles are concluded as LaP compound or eutectics, which exist on grain boundary mainly.展开更多
