In order to study the reasons of these phenomena,a method of metallographic observation in combination with sample electrolysis was used to characterize the non-metallic inclusions in the alloy wire. The results indicate that the inclusions in the alloy are oxidation products during the process of melting. There are single or complex phase inclusions composed of elements such as Al,Si,Ca,Ti,Fe,and O2. Among them,the macro-inclusions are TiO2 compound inclusions formed by the adhesion of Al and Si oxides on them. These inclusions are fragile ones with a low strain rate,as well as a rather high hardness,so that they are the main reason that leads to the surface cracks and ruptures in the alloy wires. The analysis has educed that the key point to enhance the product quality is to promote the cleanliness of the melt,control the types and quantity of non-metal inclusions in the alloy.展开更多
The hot deformation behavior of pure nickel with coarse, columnar grains in the temperature range of 950-1150 ℃ at intervals of 50℃ and in the strain rate range of 0.001-10.000 s^-1 at intervals of one order of magn...The hot deformation behavior of pure nickel with coarse, columnar grains in the temperature range of 950-1150 ℃ at intervals of 50℃ and in the strain rate range of 0.001-10.000 s^-1 at intervals of one order of magnitude was investigated by isothermal hot compressive testing with the compression ratio of 70%. The results reveal that the strain rate and the temperature strongly affect the flow stress during hot deformation and that flow stress increases with the increase in strain rate while decreases with temperature increasing. Moreover, the relationship among flow stress, strain rate and temperature can be represented by the Zener-Hollomon parameter with the calculated apparent activation energy of 312.403 kJ·mol^-1, and the variation of activation energy is sensitive to strain rate rather than temperature. In addition, the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) analysis reveals that the DRX behavior of nickel is evidently affected by both deformation temperature and strain rate and that the distinct mechanisms of nucleation are the bulging of serrated grain boundaries and the development of twinning.展开更多
