摘要
借助金相显微镜、扫描电镜、透射电镜、布氏硬度计和万能试验机,试验研究了Sc对Al-3.0Si-0.45Mg-0.45Cu-0.15Ti合金铸态组织和力学性能的影响。结果表明,在试验合金中添加稀土元素Sc,使合金在凝固过程中析出Al3(Sc,Ti)初生相,初生相与α(Al)基体共格,符合点阵匹配原理,成为有效的非均质晶核,可显著细化合金的铸态组织。随着Sc含量(w(Sc)0~0.56%)的增加,合金的铸态组织由粗大的树枝晶变为细小的等轴晶,合金的硬度、抗拉强度和伸长率也随着Sc含量的增加而升高。时效过程中析出的Al3(Sc,Ti)沉淀相密度高,细小弥散,具有钉扎位错,稳定亚结构,阻碍亚晶长大及晶界迁移的作用。
The influences of Sc addition on the casting structures and mechanical properties of Al-3. 0 Si-0. 45 Mg-0. 45 Cu-0. 15 Ti alloys were investigated by metallographic microscope,scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray( SEM-EDX),transmission electron microscopy( TEM),Brinell tester and universal testing machine. The result shows that the primary Al_3( Sc,Ti) particles precipitated from the melt during solidification produce a substantial refinement of grain size of as-cast microstructures of the alloys,which have the same crystal structure of α( Al),and comply with the lattice matching principle. With increase content of Sc( 0 ~ 0. 56%),the growth morphology of as-cast microstructures change from denfritic to fine equiaxed grain. The hardness,tensile strength and elongation are also enhanced with the increase content of Sc. The dispersed secondary Al_3( Sc,Ti) precipitated during aging treatment can strongly pin dislocations,stabilize substructures and inhibit subgrain growth and the movement of boundaries.
