摘 要: 制备不含粗大S相(1号合金)和富含粗大S相(2号合金)两种典型组织特征的2E12合金。结合热模拟实验和显微组织观察,针对两种合金在340~490 ℃、0.001~10 s-1下的变形行为开展研究。结果表明:除(490 ℃,0.001 s-1)的变形条件下,2号合金在相同变形条件下比1号合金拥有更高的峰值应力。在(340 ℃,10 s-1)变形条件下,1号合金和2号合金的主要失效形式分别为三叉晶界的变形失稳和S相脆裂引起的沿晶开裂。在(490 ℃,0.001 s-1)的变形条件下,晶界处S相完全弱化导致2号合金出现明显的晶界开裂。在变形过程中,合金晶内的T相和S相均对位错运动具有较强的阻碍作用,能强化合金并且促进合金的均匀变形。在回复阶段,晶内的T相和S相能钉扎亚晶界从而起到细化晶粒的作用。

Abstract:Two kinds of alloys featured with free of S phase (alloy 1) and enriched with S phase (alloy 2) were prepared. Combined isothermal hot compression test and microstructure observation, the hot deformation behaviors of two alloys were studied at the temperature range of 340-490 ℃ and strain rate range of 0.001-10 s-1. The results show that, compared with alloy 1, alloy 2 possesses higher peak-stress when deformed at the same conditions. When deformed at (340 ℃, 10 s-1), the main failure modes for alloy 1 and alloy 2 are unstable deformation at triple grain boundaries (GBs) and intergranular cracking caused by brittle fracture of S phase, respectively. When deformed at (490 ℃, 0.001 s-1), the S phase located at GB is completely weakened which leads to the intergranular cracking of alloy 2. During deformation, the grain interior S phase and T phase not only hinder dislocation motion but also promote homogenous deformation of alloy. During recovery, the grain interior S phase and T phase can pin subgrain boundaries and thus refine grain size.
