Abstract:The morphology evolution and phase transformation of Al9(Mn,Ni)2 eutectic phase in an Al-4Ni-2Mn alloy during heat treatment at 600 °C were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results show that nearly all of the eutectic fibers change into prolate ellipsoid and spherical particles in the process of heat treatment, and Ostwald ripening phenomenon occurs in the eutectic region with the increase of the heat treatment time. Besides, a phase transformation from Al9(Mn,Ni)2 to O-phase is confirmed. The morphologies of the transformed particles indicate that the O-phase preferentially nucleates on the specific crystal plane of the Al9(Mn,Ni)2 eutectic phase and grows in a certain direction. During the phase transformation, the (010)[001] slip system in O-phase is activated, and the resultant slip traces appear on the surface of some O-phase particles.
Key words: Al-Ni-Mn alloys; phase transformation; quasicrystal approximant; slip phenomenon
