热暴露对Al-Cu-Li合金的组织及性能影响
Effect of thermal exposure on the microstructure and properties of an Al-Cu-Li alloy
【摘要】 Al-Cu-Li合金作为航空航天工业中一种前景广阔的结构材料,其热稳定性在实际应用中发挥着重要作用。本研究对T85态的Al-Cu-Li合金在一系列温度(100~300℃)下进行了500 h的暴露处理,并通过维氏硬度、电导率和拉伸测试对其性能进行了评估。结合扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和透射电子显微镜(TEM)分析了不同热暴露温度下的微观结构演变。结果表明,热暴温度低于150℃时,合金具有良好的热稳定性,这与T1(Al2CuLi)相的直径和数密度不断增加相关。当热暴露温度介于150~200℃时,T1相逐渐被粗大的θ’-Al2Cu和S-Al2CuMg取代;同时,断续的晶界析出物(GBPs)和宽的无析出区(PFZs)利于沿晶断裂,使合金呈现出沿晶-穿晶混合断裂,导致硬度和强度的降低和延伸率的增加。热暴露温度高于250℃时,T1相全部溶解,形成了粗大的T2(Al6Cu(Li, Mg)3)和C相,从而导致合金的强度下降,但延伸率和电导率却表现出相反的趋势。
【Abstract】 As a promising structural material in the aerospace industry, the long-term thermal stability of Al-Cu-Li alloys plays an important role in practical applications. In this study, the T85-treated AlCu-Li alloy subjected to thermal exposure at a range of temperatures(100~300 ℃) for 500 h, is evaluated by Vickers hardness, electrical conductivity and tensile tests. The microstructure evolution at different heat exposure temperatures is analyzed by a combination of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The results show that excellent thermal stability in strength is obtained below 150 ℃, which can be related to the increasing diameter and number density of the T1(Al2CuLi) phase. In the 150~200 ℃ window, the T1 phase is gradually replaced by coarse θ’-Al2Cu and S-Al2CuMg with increasing temperature. Simultaneously, discontinuous grain boundary precipitates(GBPs) and soft precipitation-free zones(PFZs) lead to intergranular ductile fracture dominance, exhibiting mixed ductile and brittle fracture. At temperatures above 250 ℃, the T1 phase is completely dissolved and coarse T2(Al6Cu(Li, Mg)3) and C phases are formed. This leads to a dramatic decrease in the strength, while elongation and conductivity show an opposite trend.
