The authors experimentally investigated the change of mechanical properties of Inconel X-750 alloy under various heat treatments. For the selected specimens, solid solution treatment under different temperatures was carried out, followed air cooling or furnace cooling. Results show that suitable solid solution treatment and air cooling enhances the strength, plasticity, impact toughness at room temperature of the alloy and lowers the hardness of the alloy at room temperature.

After solid solution treatment at 1335°C for 4 hours and cooling to room temperature at different rate, the nickel-based single crystal superalloy were made into three kinds of nickel-based single crystal superalloy materials containing different size γ′ phases, respectively. The tensile test of I-shaped specimens was carried out at 980°C, and their effect of γ′ phase microstructure on the tensile properties was studied. The results show that the yielding strength of the material air-cooled to room temperature was lower than that with cooling rate at 0.15°C/s, but both of them were lower than the yielding strength of original material. Little difference was found on the elastic modulus of I-shaped specimens made of three kinds of materials. When the cubic degree of the γ′ phase is higher and the size is larger, the tensile properties of the material is better, which can be attributed to the larger size and narrower channel of the matrix phase that lead to higher dislocation resistance.

CuNiCoBe alloy and CuCoBe alloy were cast by the vacuum inductive melting technique, and were heat treated under certain parameters. By using optical microscope, sclerometer and conductivity meter, the properties of two alloys were investigated after heat treatment. Experimental results show that the process of 980 °C for solid solution and three hours of aging at 450 °C is the best heat treatment for CuCoBe alloy, while 960 °C is the best solid solution treatment temperature for CuNiCoBe alloy with the same aging measures. Ni is beneficial to improve the hardness and conductivity of alloys, and CuNiCoBe alloy has better strength, hardness and conductivity than CuCoBe alloy at different temperatures, and two alloys all have a conductivity mutation increase near 450 °C. CuNiCoBe alloy and CuCoBe alloy soften respectively at 464 °C and 471 °C.

The effect of yttrium addition and heat treatment on the mechanical properties and microstructure of AM60 magnesium alloy have been investigated using X-ray phase analysis, microstructure investigation, tensile test, hardness measurement and fracture surfaces analysis. The results showed that the mechanical properties of the alloys were obviously improved with the addition of yttrium no more than 1.0%. The reinforcement of the alloys resulted from the appearance of Al2Y phase. After solid-solution treatment (T4), the Mg17Al12 phase almost dissolved in Mg matrix, but the rare earth compounds Al2Y phase was rather stable. The ultimate tensile strength σb was improved, but the yield strength σ0.2 and elongation δ were only slightly changed. After solid-solution + aging treatment (T6), the Mg17Al12 phase precipitated again and their morphology was changed. The yield strength σ0.2 was improved.

A series of Mg-6Al-2Sr-1.5Y-xNd (x=0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2) alloy samples were prepared and their microstructures were observed and mechanical properties were measured. The existing forms of Y and Nd were studied. The effects of Y and Nd on microstructure and mechanical properties of AJ62 alloy were investigated. The results show that the main existing forms of Y and Nd in AJ62 alloy are Al2Y and Al2Nd. The combined addition of rare earth Y and Nd can refine α-Mg matrix obviously and reduce the amount of the β-Mg17Al12phases; after solid solution treatment, the tensile strength of the alloys rise first and fall later with increasing content of Nd. When the content of Nd is about 0.6%wt, the values of tensile strengthes are up to the maximum both at room temperature and at 448 K.

An experimental investigation was carried out to study the effects of solid solution treatment and aging treatment on the microstructures and mechanical properties of an Al-13Si-5Cu-2Ni alloy. The results show that the size of eutectic silicon decreased with solid solution treatment temperature increasing until 510 °C. Subsequently, the eutectic silicon size continued to increase as the temperature increased to 520 °C. Initially, the acicular eutectic silicon of the as-cast alloy was 10.1 μm in size. After the solid solution treatment at 510 °C, the eutectic silicon size was reduced to 6.5 μm. The θ′ phase is the main strengthening phase in the alloy, therefore, the effect of aging treatment on θ′ phases was explored. As the aging time increased, the diameter, length, and fraction volume of the θ′ phases were found to increase. The main reason for the improved performance of this alloy following heat treatment is the passivation spheroidization of the silicon phase and Orowan strengthening due to the θ′ phases. The optimal tensile strength of an Al-13Si-5Cu-2Ni alloy was obtained after solid solution treatment at 510 °C for 8 h followed by an aging treatment at 165 °C for 8 h. Therefore, this work has great significance for promoting the application of Al alloys at high temperatures.

Effects of solution and aging treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of rolled AM50+xCa alloys(x=0, 1, 2 wt. %) were studied. The results indicated that, with increasing solution time i, the secondary phase Mg17Al12 was dissolved into the Mg matrix and Al2Ca became thinner and shorter, then gradually broken and spheroidized.With an increase of aging time, Mg17Al12 precipitated from the Mg matrix in the form of particles and Al2Ca changed a little. After solution treatment, hardness and tensile properties of the alloy’s decreased. After the aging treatment, the alloy’s hardness increased first and decreased later while the tensile properties increased little. The solution and aging treatment can increase the ductility of AM50 and AM50+1Ca alloys. For AM50+2Ca alloy, the ductility increased after solid solution treatment and decreased after aging treatment.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of solid solution temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of the AA7075 alloy after T6 heat treatment was investigated. Following solid solution at five different temperatures for 2 hours, the AA7075 alloy was quenched and then artificially aged at 120∘C for 24 hours. Hardness measurements, microstructure examinations (SEM+EDS, XRD) and tensile tests were carried out for the alloys. The results showed that the increased solid solution temperature led to formation of precipitates in the microstructures and thus caused higher hardness and tensile strength.

The effects of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), further heat treatment and rolling on the structure and room temperature mechanical properties of the commercial aluminum alloys 6061 (Al-0.9Mg-0.7Si) and 1560 (Al-6.5Mg-0.6Mn) were investigated. It has been shown that the strength of the alloys after ECAP is higher than that achieved after conventional processing. Prior ECAP solution treatment and post-ECAP ageing can additionally increase the strength of the 6061 alloy. Under optimal ageing conditions a yield strength (YS) of 434 MPa and am ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 470 MPa were obtained for the alloy. Additional cold rolling leads to a YS and UTS of 475 and 500 MPa with 8% elongation. It was found that the post-ECAP isothermal rolling of the 1560 alloy resulted in the formation of a nano-fibred structure and a tensile strength (YS = 540 MPa and UTS = 635 MPa) that has never previously been observed in commercial non-heat treatable alloys.
