Effect of boron alloying element and annealing solution heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of manganese steels

Abstract In the paper results of the microstructure and mechanical properties (HB, Rm and R0,2) of AlSi17Cu5 alloy, subjected by solution heat treatment (500ºC/6h/woda) and aging (200ºC/16h/piec) are presented. In next step the alloy was modified and heated significantly above the Tliq temperature (separately and together). It was found that the increase in the strength properties of the tested alloy after heat treatment compared to alloys without solution heat treatment and aging was due to precipitation hardening. The applied aging treatment of ingots (preceded by solution heat treatment), causes not only increase in concentration in α(Al) solid solution, but also a favorable change of the primary Si crystals morphology. During stereological measurements significant size reduction and change in the morphology of hypereutectic silicon crystals ware found. This effects can be further enhanced by overheating the alloy to a temperature of 920ºC and rapid cooling before casting of the alloy.

In this paper, the effects of Sb addition on heat-treated microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ61-0.7Si magnesium alloy were investigated. The results indicate that the solution heat treatment can modify the Chinese script shaped Mg2Si phase in the AZ61-0.7Si alloy. After solutionized at 420°C, the morphology of the Mg2Si phase in the AZ61-0.7Si alloy changes from the Chinese script shape to the short pole and block shapes, and the higher modification efficiency could be obtained for the alloy with the addition of 0.4 wt.%Sb. In addition, the effect of the solution heat treatment on the morphology of the Mg2Si phase can also result in the improvement of tensile and creep properties for the AZ61-0.7Si alloy. After solutionized at 420°C for 24h and followed by aging treatment at 200°C for 12h, the AZ61-0.7Si alloy exhibits higher tensile and creep properties than that of the as-cast alloy, and the properties improvement resulted from heat treatment, is more obvious for the AZ61-0.7Si alloy with the addition of 0.4 wt.%Sb.

Zk60 Alloy

Variations in microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy sheets were investigated with aging time. ZK60 alloy sheets with a thickness of 1mm were prepared from a casting ingot followed by homogenization and warm-rolling. Artificial aging process after solution heat treatment (T6) affected both hardness variations and precipitates distributions with aging time. Hardness variations were related to precipitates, i.e. rod-shaped ( 1 β ′ ) or disc shaped ( 2 β ′ ) particles. Rod-shaped ( 1 β ′ ) precipitates mainly consist of Mg and Zn without Zr.
