Solution Strengthening

The Cu-Cr and Cu-Cr-Ti alloy plates were prepared by vacuum melting and plastic deformation. The effect of slight Ti element on microstructure and mechanical properties of Cu-Cr alloy was discussed. The result shows that Cr particles with spherical shape precipitated from Cu matrix after aging. Plenty Ti atoms dissolved in the vicinity of Cr particles and there were still parts of solid solution Ti atoms in other regions. Improvements in peak hardness and softening resistance were achieved with the addition of Ti element in Cu-Cr alloy. The addition of 0.1 wt.% Ti element makes Cu-Cr alloy possess tensile strength of 565 MPa and hardness of 185.9 HV after aging at 450 °C for 120 min, which can be attributed to multiple strengthening mechanisms, i.e. work hardening, solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening.

The Relationship

High-performance conventional engineering materials (including Al alloys, Mg alloys, Cu alloys, stainless steels, Ni superalloys, etc.) and newly-developed high entropy alloys are all compositionally-complex alloys (CCAs). In these CCA systems, the second-phase particles are generally precipitated in their solid-solution matrix, in which the precipitates are diverse and can result in different strengthening effects. The present work aims at generalizing the precipitation behavior and precipitation strengthening in CCAs comprehensively. First of all, the morphology evolution of second-phase particles and precipitation strengthening mechanisms are introduced. Then, the precipitation behaviors in diverse CCA systems are illustrated, especially the coherent precipitation. The relationship between the particle morphology and strengthening effectiveness is discussed. It is addressed that the challenge in the future is to design the stable coherent microstructure in different solid-solution matrices, which will be the most effective approach for the enhancement of alloy strength.

Zn Alloys

To explore the effect of neodymium (Nd) on the deformation mechanisms of Mg–Zn alloys, texture and lattice strain developments of hot-rolled Mg–Zn (Z1) and Mg–Zn–Nd (ZN10) alloys were investigated using in situ synchrotron diffraction and compared with elasto-viscoplastic self-consistent simulation under tensile loading. The Nd-containing ZN10 alloys show much weaker texture after hot rolling than the Nd-free Z1 alloy. To investigate the influence of the initial texture on the texture and lattice strain evolution, the tensile tests were carried out in the rolling and transverse direction. During tension, the {002}<100> texture components develop fast in Z1, which was not seen for ZN10. On the other hand, <100> fiber // loading direction (LD) developed in both alloys, although it was faster in ZN10 than in Z1. Lattice strain investigation showed that <101> // LD-oriented grains experienced plastic deformation first during tension, which can be related to basal slip activity. This was more apparent for ZN10 than for Z1. The simulation results show that the prismatic slip plays a vital role in the plastic deformation of Z1 directly from the beginning. In contrast, ZN10 plastic deformation starts with dominant basal slip but during deformation prismatic slip becomes increasingly important.

Active Slip

According to von-Mises criterion, five kinds of independent slip systems are required for uniform deformation, so it is necessary to activate non-basal slip systems to show good ductility. However, it has not become clear the effect of Zn or Al for non-basal slip systems yet. To investigate deformation behavior of magnesium crystal by non-basal slip and alloying effect for the non-basal slip, pure magnesium and Mg-Al-Zn single crystals were stretched in the [110] direction. While {112}<23> second order pyramidal slip was activated at room temperature in pure magnesium, {101}<23> first order pyramidal slip became active slip at higher temperature. In Mg-Al-Zn alloy single crystal, {101} twin also activated by adding aluminum. These results indicate that active non-basal slip systems and twin in magnesium strongly depend on deformation temperature and alloying elements.

The Relationship

The precipitation of vanadium takes place mainly in ferrite by interphase precipitation or nucleation on dislocation line, which makes sense for the industry production due to the precipitation strengthening. The objective is to analysize the cooling process of V-steels to exert the precipitation strengthening of vanadium. The steels with 0.09%C-0.055%N/0.0107%N/0.0168%N/0.0193%N-0.08%V/0.085V steel are the researched steel grades. Using solid solubility products model and thermodynamic equation, the full solid solution temperature, nucleation rate curve and PTT curve of precipitation process are calculated. The effect of nitrogen on the precipitation behaviour of V(C,N) in γ and the precipitation of V(C,N) in α are simulated. Based on the calculation results the trial process is determined. The laboratorial trials are carried out with ultra fast cooling. The precipitate particles are observed by TEM. The solid solution amount increases monotonously and the size of precipitate particle decreases with the nitrogen content. The solid solution temperature of 0.055%N, 0.0107%N, 0.0168%N and 0.0193%N are 977.0°C, 1028.0°C, 1062.3 and 1078.9°C respectively. The laboratorial trial results shows that the tensile strength is improved about 100 MPa due to the precipitation strengthening. The relationship between the coiling temperature and the strength is parabolic curve downward and the relationship between the coiling temperature and the elongation is parabolic curve upward. This calculation can determine both the proper nitrogen content and the optimal cooling process. The trial results proves this method is feasible and efficiency.
