Abstract

Strength and plasticity are basic mechanical properties for wrought Al alloys, and generally exhibit a trade-off relationship. Herein through analyzing the respective effects of precipitates on yield strength and strain hardening, we proposed and quantitatively analyzed a strategy for synchronously strengthening and plasticizing Al alloys by refining and densifying the precipitates, defined as RDP effect. The precipitates were highly refined and densified in three high-Zn 7xxx alloys in order to verify the validity of the RDP effect. The tensile tests show that the high-Zn Al alloys possess ultra-high strength and good plasticity compared to the traditional Al alloys. Further analysis reveals that the densification of precipitates mainly contributes to the ultra-high strength, accounting for over 75%, while the refinement of precipitates suppresses the dislocation annihilation, thus increasing the strain-hardening capacity. Together, these two factors finally contribute to the excellent strength and plasticity matching. This finding will provide strong support for the positive impact of RDP effect on improving the balance between strength and ductility. Besides, this strategy may be considered as an effective one for simultaneously improving the strength and plasticity in high-performance Al alloys.

通过细化和致密化沉淀实现铝合金的优异强度和塑性
强度和塑性是锻造铝合金的基本机械性能,通常呈现出一种权衡关系。在此,我们通过分析析出物对屈服强度和应变硬化的各自影响,提出并定量分析了通过细化和致密化析出物实现铝合金同步强化和塑化的策略,即 RDP 效应。为了验证 RDP 效应的有效性,我们对三种高锌 7xxx 合金中的析出物进行了高度细化和致密化处理。拉伸试验表明,与传统的铝合金相比,高锌铝合金具有超高强度和良好的塑性。进一步的分析表明,析出物的致密化是超高强度的主要原因,占 75% 以上,而析出物的细化抑制了位错湮灭,从而提高了应变硬化能力。这两个因素共同作用,最终实现了优异的强度和塑性匹配。这一发现将有力地支持 RDP 效应对改善强度和延展性之间平衡的积极影响。此外,这种策略可被视为同时提高高性能铝合金强度和塑性的有效方法。

期刊介绍: Materials and Design is a multi-disciplinary journal that publishes original research reports, review articles, and express communications. The journal focuses on studying the structure and properties of inorganic and organic materials, advancements in synthesis, processing, characterization, and testing, the design of materials and engineering systems, and their applications in technology. It aims to bring together various aspects of materials science, engineering, physics, and chemistry. The journal explores themes ranging from materials to design and aims to reveal the connections between natural and artificial materials, as well as experiment and modeling. Manuscripts submitted to Materials and Design should contain elements of discovery and surprise, as they often contribute new insights into the architecture and function of matter.
