The effect of the ratio of atomization pressure to metal melt mass flux rate （P/M） on the preforms and microstructures of the spray-deposited 70Si30Al alloy was studied. The results indicate that the PIM value has a considerable influence on the formation of the preforms and the optimal value is in the range of 0.209-0.231 MPa/（kg.min^-1）. The microstructure of the spray formed 70Si30AI alloy is fine and homogenous. The primary silicon phases distributing in the aluminum matrix evenly are fine and irregular. The aluminum matrix is divided into two groups： supersaturated α-Al phase or α-Al phase and Al-Si pseudoeutectic phase or Al-Si eutectic phase.展开更多

The results show that A17Cu2Fe phase can be formed and transformed in TC- and SF-3C alloys between 802-813 K and 800-815 K, respectively. The transformation from β-Al5FeSi to δ-Al4FeSi2 phase via peritectic reaction can occur at around 858-870 K and 876-890 K in TC- and SF-3C alloys, respectively. The starting precipitation temperature of δ-Al4FeSi2 phase as the dominant Fe-bearing phase in the TC-3C alloy is 997 K and the exothermic peak about the peritectic transformation of δ-Al4FeSi2→β-Al5FeSi is not detected in the present DSC experiments.

It is shown that hot deformation of the spray formed 70Si30Al alloy is achieved by liquid flow due to isostatic pressure and movement of solid particles due to shear force. Deformation condition depends on the nucleation rate and closure rate of the cavities. The flow stress slightly varies when the difference between the nucleation rate and closure rate of the cavities is small; however, it decreases when the nucleation rate of the cavities is greater than the closure rate of the cavities.展开更多

The results show that the tensile strength of aluminum alloy sheet added 0.033%(mass fraction)Sr increases comparing with that of free Sr. Simultaneously, the forming properties of sheets evidently increase, the elongation hardenability (n) and plastic strain ratio (r) and Erichsen number increase 27.8%, 11.1%, 10.8% and 12%, respectively, and the forming limit diagram increases evidently, too. The analysis shows that Sr is surface active element, which can refine grains of alloys, promote precipitation, reduce activation energy ofβ' phase, and lead the formation ofα-(Al8Fe2Si) phase instead ofβ-(Al5FeSi) phase. As a result, the forming properties of the alloy sheet increase.展开更多

The results indicate that the microstnicture of as-deposited preforms is fine and homogenous. The primary silicon phases distributing in aluminium matrix evenly are fine and irregular. Aluminium matrix is divided into two groups: supersaturatedα-Al phase orα-Al phase and Al-Si pseudo-eutectic phase or Al-Si eutectic phase. During hot pressing, the primary silicon and the aluminium matrix realign as follows: the primary silicon fractures at a given compressive stress, the particles congregates in microzone with increasing stress, and the aluminium matrix flows and connects in harness. Al-Si pseudo-eutectic phase turns into Al-Si eutectic phase due to the diffusion of atoms during densification process.展开更多

The calculation result indicates that the bulk Pd 82 Si 18 amorphous alloys have a low critical cooling rate ( R c) of 4.589 K/s or less. The experimental results show that purifying melt may improve glass forming ability(GFA) of undercooled melt, while liquid phase separation (LPS) of undercooled melt will decrease its GFA. There are some differences in crystallization experiments between bulk metallic glass and amorphous ribbons of Pd 82 Si 18 alloys. These include the numbers of exothermic peak, glass transition temperature T g, crystallization temperature T x, region of undercooling liquid (Δ T=T x- T g) respectively.
