AbstractAluminium-magnesium 5083 alloy was rapidly solidified by means of melt spinning technique and plastically consolidated during subsequent hot extrusion process. As a result, rods 8 mm in diameter were obtained. Structure of as-extruded material is characterized by ultra-fined grains, which influences on increasement of mechanical properties of the material. The strengthening effect was further enhanced by application of thermo-mechanical treatment consist of cold rolling combined with isothermal annealing. As a result, reduction of grain size from ∼710 nm to ∼270 nm as well as enhancement of yield stress (330 MPa to 420 MPa) and ultimate tensile strength (410 MPa to 460 MPa) were achieved. Based on received results Hall-Petch coefficients (σ0, k) for 5083 RS material were determined.

<p>In this work, Al-11Fe, Al-7Fe-4Ni and Al-7Fe-4Cr (in wt. %) alloys were prepared by combination of casting and hot extrusion. Microstructures of as-cast alloys were composed of aluminium matrix with large and coarse intermetallics such as Al<sub>13</sub>Fe<sub>4</sub>, Al<sub>13</sub>Cr<sub>2</sub> and Al<sub>5</sub>Cr. Subsequently, as-cast alloys were rapidly solidified by melt-spinning technique which led to the supersaturation of solid solution alloying elements. These rapidly solidified ribbons were milled and compacted by hot-extrusion method. Hot-extrusion caused that microstructures of all alloys were fine with uniform dispersed particles. Moreover, long-term thermal stability was tested at temperature 300 °C for as-cast and hot-extruded alloys and chromium was found to be the most suitable element for alloying to improve thermal stability.    </p>

Melt Spinning Technique

Tin-bismuth alloy ribbons were produced using melt-spinning technique. The two main surfaces (in contact with the rotating wheel and exposed to the air) were characterized with Optical Microscopy and AFM, revealing that the surface exposed to the air is duller (due to a long-range heterogeneity) than the opposite surface. Also the XPS chemical composition revealed many differences between them both on the corrosion extension and on the total relative amounts of tin and bismuth. For instance, for the specific case of an alloy with a composition Bi-4 wt % Sn, the XPS atomic ratios Sn/Bi are 1.1 and 3.7 for the surface in contact with the rotating wheel and for the one exposed to air, respectively, showing, additionally, that a large segregation of tin at the surface exists (nominal ratio should be 0.073). This segregation was interpreted as the result of the electrochemical process yielding the corrosion products.

The structure of a series of AlSb alloys prepared by melt spinning have been studied in the as melt–spun ribbons  as a function of antimony content .The stability  of these structures has  been  related to that of the transport and mechanical properties of the alloy ribbons. Microstructural analysis was performed and it was found that only Al and AlSb phases formed for different composition.  The electrical, thermal and the stability of the mechanical properties are related indirectly through the influence of the antimony content. The results are interpreted in terms of the phase change occurring to alloy system. Electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, elastic moduli and the values of microhardness are found to be more sensitive than the internal friction to the phase changes.

Material Structure

Magnesium and its alloys are attractive candidates for automotive and aerospace applications due to their relatively high strength and low density. However, their low ductility determined by hcp structure of material results in limitation of plastic deformation processing. In order to improve ductility as well as mechanical properties, structure refinement processes can be used. It is well known that effective refining of the material structure can be achieved by increasing the cooling rate during casting procedures, hence rapid solidification process (RSP) has been experimented for the fabrication of magnesium alloys. The present paper reports an experimental investigation on the influence of rapid solidification on the mechanical properties of AM60 magnesium alloy. In order to obtain RS material melt spinning process was applied in protective atmosphere, resulting in formation of RS ribbons. Following consolidation of the RS material is necessary to obtain bulk material with high mechanical properties, as so hot extrusion process was applied. It was noticed that application of plastic consolidation by hot extrusion is the most effective process to achieve full densification of material. For comparison purposes, the conventionally cast and hot extruded AM60 alloy was studied as well. The purpose of the present study was to investigate in detail the effect of rapid solidification and extrusion temperature on the structure and mechanical properties of the materials.

The aim of the present work was to compare microstructures and mechanical properties of nano-Al alloys fabricated by two different methods: (i) SPD induced grain refinement, (ii) plastic consolidation of nano-powders or nano-crystalline ribbons. SPD grain refinement has been implemented by hydrostatic extrusion, HE. The ribbons were rapidly solidified using a melt spinning methods. Plastic consolidation of powder and ribbons was conducted by warm extrusion. The results of the studies show that by applying various fabrication routes for a given chemical composition, diverse nano-structures can be obtained, which differ in terms of grain size and shape, grain boundary character and dislocation density. As a result, the alloys also differ significantly in the mechanical properties. The findings are discussed in terms of the possibilities for optimizing properties of the bulk-nano-metals.

In present work, the Mg−Gd−Nd−Y−Zn alloy sheets were prepared by hot extrusion technique. The microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of the extruded alloy were investigated. After hot extrusion, the alloy reveals a greatly refined microstructure due to the dynamic recrystallization. The coarse eutectic phases were crushed into small particles during extrusion process, which brings a promotion of grain refinement. A weak basal fiber texture was obtained in the as-extruded alloy owing to the influence of RE (rare earth) alloying elements. The as-extruded alloy exhibits mechanical anisotropy that the strengths and elongations in the extrusion direction are both higher than those in the transverse direction. And this behavior does not change with increasing temperature. It results from the weak texture and the distribution of eutectic phase particles in the alloy sheet. Through isothermal aging treatment, significant strengthening is achieved in the peak-aged alloy, and the mechanical anisotropy still exists.

In the present work, rapidly solidified Al-21Si-0.8Mg-1.5Cu-0.5Mn alloys strips was prepared by melt-spinning technique. The microstructure morphology and phase structures of experimental alloy were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electric microscopy (TEM) and XRD technique. The results show that the grains were refined and the micro-nanocomposite structural were formed under rapid solidification. The nucleation and growth of primary silicon were suppressed and primary silicon could not deposited, meanwhile, α-Al phase was nucleated which prior to eutectic. The microstructure of the Al-21Si alloy was composed of micro-nanostructured α-Al phase and feather-needles-like eutectic α-Al+β-Si phase. The hypereutectic Al-21Si alloy showed the hypoeutectic microstructure. The rapidly solidified Al-21Si alloy microstructure formation mechanism has also been discussed.
