摘要
研究了添加Sc元素对7055铝合金铸造、均匀化处理、轧制和固溶时效过程的微观结构演化以及力学性能的影响。结果表明,向7055溶液中添加质量分数为0.25%的Sc导致在铸造过程中形成初生Al3(Sc,Zr)相。这个相能促使合金发生非均质形核,显著细化合金的铸造组织。在7055-Sc铝合金的均匀化处理过程中析出高密度纳米Al3(Sc,Zr)相,不但能抑制晶粒粗化,而且在后期轧制变形和固溶时效处理过程中还起钉扎晶界、抑制回复与再结晶、保留纤维组织的作用。与7055铝合金相比,7055-Sc铝合金的晶粒尺寸更小,因此具有更有效的细晶强化效应。添加Sc的时效处理态7055铝合金的最大抗拉强度和显微硬度,分别提高到642 MPa和218 HV。
The effect of Sc addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 7055 Al-alloy as-cast, as well as after homogenization-, rolling-, solution-and aging-treatment was investigated. The addition of 0.25%(mass fraction) Sc could lead to the formation of Al3(Sc, Zr) phase, which can promote the heterogeneous nucleation during casting. Therefore, the microstructure of the as cast 7055 Al-alloy was refined. The precipitation of nano-sized Al3(Sc, Zr) phase occurred during the homogenization treatment of the 7055-Sc Al-alloy, and this nano-sized Al3( Sc, Zr) phase could effectively inhibit the coarsening of Al grains during homogenization treatment, and play a role in pinning the grain boundaries, therewith inhibiting the recovery and recrystallization, thus retaining the fiber-like structure during subsequent rolling and solution treatments. Compared to the plain 7055 Al-alloy, the 7055-Sc Al alloy exhibited much higher fine grain strengthening effect due to finer grain size and showed higher tensile strength and hardness as high as 642 MPa and 218 HV, respectively.
