摘 要: 采用热分析法和铸造热裂试验研究MgZn4.5YxZr0.5(x=0.5,1,2,4,6(质量分数, %))合金的热裂行为。结果表明:MgZn4.5Y1Zr0.5合金的枝晶干涉温度Tcoh最高、在脆弱区域的温度差ΔTc最大、在最后凝固阶段剩余的液相量最少、形成的液膜厚度较薄,补缩程度较低,所能抵御的凝固收缩力最小、裂纹扩展速率最大。这些现象说明MgZn4.5Y1Zr0.5合金具有最高的热裂敏感性。随着Y含量的增加,聚集在晶界处的低熔点相对合金热裂行为的作用以及合金的热裂形成机制均发生变化:当Y含量不超过1%时,低熔点相主要对晶间结合力起破坏作用,合金的热裂形成机制主要是晶间搭桥的断裂;当Y含量超过1%时,低熔点相主要对枝晶分离区起补缩作用,合金的热裂形成机制为晶间搭桥、枝晶分离区域的补缩和液膜共同作用。

Abstract:Thermal analysis method and constrained rod casting (CRC) were used to study hot tearing behavior of MgZn4.5YxZr0.5 (x=0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 (mass fraction, %)) alloys. The results show that MgZn4.5Y1Zr0.5 alloy possesses the highest hot tearing susceptibility (HTS) among the tested alloys due to the highest coherency temperature (Tcoh), the largest temperature difference (ΔTc) in vulnerable region, the least residual liquid in last stage of solidification, the lowest anti-contraction force of thinner film, the poorer feeding capability and the highest crack propagation rate. The role of low-melting point phases gathering at grain boundary on the HTS and the main mechanism of hot tearing shift gradually with different Y contents: when Y is not more than 1%, the role is mainly a damaging effect on intergranular binding force and the main mechanism is fracture of intergranular bridges; when Y is more than 1%, the role is mainly an intergranular feeding effect on formed separated dendrites and the main mechanism is the collective effect of intergranular bridges, intergranular feeding and film.
