Effects of these featured LPSO phases and stacking faults on dynamic recrystallization(DRX) behavior were investigated via hot compression. Promoted DRX behavior via particle stimulated nucleation(PSN) is introduced by coexisting intergranular island 18R and 14H LPSO phases and intragranular wide spacing lamellar 14H-LPSO phases, contributing the highest DRX fraction of 42.6%. Conversely, it is found that DRX behavior with network intergranular 18R-LPSO phases and dense intragranular stacking fault is considerably inhibited with the lowest fraction of 22.8%. That is, the restricted DRX due to dislocations pinning by stacking faults overwhelms the enhanced DRX behavior via PSN of island intergranular 18R and 14H LPSO phases. Specially, compared with dense intragranular lamellar 14H-LPSO phases, high-density stacking faults exert a larger inhibition effect on DRX behavior.展开更多

The results showed that the as-cast S 18 alloy was composed of 18R phase (its volume fraction exceeds 93%), W particles and α-Mg phase. The 18R phase in S18 alloy was thermally stable and was not transformed into 14H long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase during annealing. However, 14H lamellas formed within tiny α-Mg slices, and their average size and volume fraction increased with prolonging annealing time. Moreover, the 14H phase is nucleated within α-Mg independently on the basis of basal stacking faults (SFs). The broadening growth of 14H lamellas is an interface-controlled process which involves ledges on basal planes, while the lengthening growth is a diffusion-controlled process and is associated with diffusion of solute atoms. The formation mechanism of 14H phase in this alloy could be explained as α-Mg'→α-Mg+14H.展开更多

文摘We investigate the variation induced in long-period stacking ordered(LPSO)structures,dynamic recrystallization(DRX),and mechanical performance of hot-extruded Mg89Y4Zn2Li5 alloys fabricated at different extrusion speeds(Ve=0.4,0.8,1.0,1.2 mm/s)and die angles(α=30°,60°,90°)under 400℃,the dissolution and reprecipitation of 14H LPSO structure accompanied by DRX process are then clarified in detail.Upon all extrusion conditions,the block 18R LPSO structures elongate in the extrusion direction,while the lamellar 14H LPSO structures dissolve under the deformation strain.In addition,due to discontinuous and continuous DRX mechanisms,all hot-extruded alloys have a full DRX microstructure consisting of equiaxed recrystallized grains,but the DRX grain size reduces when both extrusion speed and die angle decrease.Note that,in the interior of DRX grains,thin LPSO lamellae mixing 14H,18R and 24R structures nucleate and dynamically precipitate due to the dissolution of the original lamellar 14H LPSO structures.Furthermore,the hot-extruded Mg_(89)Y_(4)Zn_(2)Li_(5)alloy becomes stronger as decreasing of the extrusion speed and die angle,whereas the ductility remains nearly constant.Finally,the hotextruded Mg_(89)Y_(4)Zn_(2)Li_(5)alloy achieves an excellent strength-ductility balance at a relatively low extrusion speed(0.4 mm/s)and small die angle(30°)mainly due to the elongated 18R LPSO structure,fine and full DRX microstructure,thin mixed LPSO precipitates in the DRX grains,twins and dislocations.

文摘Deformation kink is one of the important strengthening mechanisms of the long-period-stacking-ordered(LPSO)phase containing magnesium(Mg)alloys,while the deformation twin is generally suppressed.To optimize the mechanical properties of LPSO containing Mg alloy by simultaneously exciting kink and twin,we successfully prepared the Mg-Zn-Y-Zr alloy featuring intragranular LPSO phase and free grain boundary LPSO phase by homogenization.We unraveled the corresponding strengthening and toughening mechanisms through transmission electron microscopy characterization and theoretical analysis.The high strength and good plasticity of the homogenized alloy benefit from the synergistic deformation mechanism of multiple kinking and twining in the grains.And the activation of kinking and twinning depends on the thicknesses of LPSO lamellae and their relative spacing.These results may shed light on optimizing the design of Mg alloys regulating the microstructure of LPSO phases.

文摘Featured initial microstructures of Mg-11Gd-4Y-2Zn-0.5Zr alloy(wt%) were obtained by adjusting temperatures of solid solution and cooling methods, including island intergranular 18R and 14H LPSO phases with low-density stacking faults, differentially spaced lamellar intragranular 14H-LPSO phases, and network intergranular 18R-LPSO phases with high-density intragranular stacking faults. Effects of these featured LPSO phases and stacking faults on dynamic recrystallization(DRX) behavior were investigated via hot compression. Promoted DRX behavior via particle stimulated nucleation(PSN) is introduced by coexisting intergranular island 18R and 14H LPSO phases and intragranular wide spacing lamellar 14H-LPSO phases, contributing the highest DRX fraction of 42.6%. Conversely, it is found that DRX behavior with network intergranular 18R-LPSO phases and dense intragranular stacking fault is considerably inhibited with the lowest fraction of 22.8%. That is, the restricted DRX due to dislocations pinning by stacking faults overwhelms the enhanced DRX behavior via PSN of island intergranular 18R and 14H LPSO phases. Specially, compared with dense intragranular lamellar 14H-LPSO phases, high-density stacking faults exert a larger inhibition effect on DRX behavior.

文摘The microstructural evolution of a 18R single phase (S 18) alloy during annealing at 773 K for 100 h was investigated in order to reveal the formation mechanism of 14H phase. The results showed that the as-cast S 18 alloy was composed of 18R phase (its volume fraction exceeds 93%), W particles and α-Mg phase. The 18R phase in S18 alloy was thermally stable and was not transformed into 14H long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase during annealing. However, 14H lamellas formed within tiny α-Mg slices, and their average size and volume fraction increased with prolonging annealing time. Moreover, the 14H phase is nucleated within α-Mg independently on the basis of basal stacking faults (SFs). The broadening growth of 14H lamellas is an interface-controlled process which involves ledges on basal planes, while the lengthening growth is a diffusion-controlled process and is associated with diffusion of solute atoms. The formation mechanism of 14H phase in this alloy could be explained as α-Mg'→α-Mg+14H.
