摘要
使用高精度测温仪、金相显微镜(OM)和扫描电镜(SEM)等手段,研究了冷却速率、过冷度和再辉温度对Al-20%Si合金Si相形貌和性能的影响。结果表明:Al-20%Si合金初生Si的平均尺寸(D)与冷却速率(v)呈幂函数关系D=260.6v-3/4,而与再辉温度(Tm)则呈线性关系D=0.25Tm-143.12;降低初生Si生长的再辉温度,是控制晶粒长大的关键;铜模的高蓄热系数能持续降低初生Si的形核温度和再辉温度,使初生Si细小;初生Si由小平面生长转变为非小平面生长的临界过冷度为70 K,与理论计算结果(74 K)基本一致;随着冷却速率的增大、过冷度的增加和再辉温度的降低,Al-20%Si合金的凝固组织显著细化,合金的抗拉强度由167 MPa提高到210 MPa,延伸率则由2.14%提高到3.89%。
The effect of cooling rate, undercooling degree and recalescence temperature on the morphology of the primary Si-phase and the mechanical property of Al-20%Si alloy were investigated by means of high-precision thermometer, optical microscope(OM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The results showed that the average size(D) of the primary Si in Al-20%Si alloy is a power function of the cooling rate(v) as D=260.6 v-3/4, and linearly related to the recalescence temperature(Tm) as D=0.25 Tm-143.12; Reducing the recalescence temperature of the primary Si growth was the key to control the grain growth, the copper mold with high thermal storage coefficient may be favourable to the sustainable reduction of the nucleation temperature and recalescence temperature of the primary Si, so that the primary Si size was small; The critical supercooling degree of 70 K was needed for the transformation of the primary Si growth from facet-like to non-facet-like ones, which is consistent with the theoretical calculation(74 K). With the increase of cooling rate and the undercooling degree, while the decrease of recalescence temperature, the solidified microstructure of Al-20%Si alloy was refined remarkably, correspondingly, the tensile strength of the Al-20%Si alloy increased from 167 MPa to 210 MPa and the elongation increased from 2.14% to 3.89 % respectively.
