The property changes of the alloy containing two rare earth elements AgLaY during cold forming and the high temperature softening-resistance during annealing were studied using Vickers hardness tester. The distribution and action of the rare earth elements in Ag-alloy were also analyzed. Experimental results show that AgLaY alloy has more remarkable work-hardening effect than AgLa and pure silver, and it also has better thermal-resistance. The effects of RE elements, La and Y, on the properties of Ag-alloy are attributable to their symbiotic distribution and complementary function. Because of the common properties of La and Y as RE elements, they have the completely similar distribution in Ag-alloy. At the same time, La and Y make full use of complementary role in the alloy since they belong to different periods in periodic table and have differences in atomic structure and properties.展开更多
Microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of a new candidate Ni-based heat-resistant alloy for advanced ultra-supercritical （A-USC） steam turbine rotors were investigated during aging at 750℃ up to 10000 ...Microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of a new candidate Ni-based heat-resistant alloy for advanced ultra-supercritical （A-USC） steam turbine rotors were investigated during aging at 750℃ up to 10000 h. The evolutions of γ＇ particles inside austenitic grain and M_23 C_6 carbides along grain boundaries were characterized according to their morphologies, distributions, and growth kinetics. Mean radius of the γ＇ spherical particles grew from 20.3 to 90.0 nm after aging for 10000 h, and;the corresponding coarse- ning behavior was conformed to the law of Lifschitz-Slyosovd-Wagner （LSW）. The weight fraction of γ＇ particles slightly increased from 10.0 to 12.0 wt. % after aging of long duration at 750 ℃.The Cr-rich M_23C_6 carbides discontinuously precipitated along grain boundaries, while other detrimental phases were not formed during the aging treatment, and hence the strength of grain boundary was enhanced by these discontinuously distributed carbides. The critical size of γ＇ had a direct influence on the maximum hardness of this alloy. Moreover, this alloy presented a good impact toughness for the safety after long time aging at high temperature.展开更多
