摘 要: 采用金相顯微鏡(OM)、掃描電鏡(SEM)、電子探針(EPMA)、透射電鏡(TEM)和掃透電鏡(STEM)以及硬度、電導(dǎo)率和拉伸性能測試等方法研究微量Si元素對Al-Zr-Sc-Er合金組織和性能的影響。結(jié)果表明：添加Si元素能夠促進富Er初生相的形成，增加鑄態(tài)合金硬度，但會顯著降低電導(dǎo)率；在Al-Zr-Sc-Er合金中，經(jīng)適當熱處理可形成核-雙殼結(jié)構(gòu)的Al3(Er,Sc,Zr)復(fù)合相，添加Si能夠增大合金時效響應(yīng)速度，促進Zr、Sc、Er析出，并參與第二相形核，形成(Al,Si)3(Er,Sc,Zr)相。相較于未添加Si的合金，添加0.05% Si的合金經(jīng)(300 ℃, 24 h)+(400 ℃, 48 h)雙級時效后硬度和電導(dǎo)率均提高，但Si的添加會導(dǎo)致析出相粗化，從而降低合金的再結(jié)晶溫度。

Abstract:The effects of trace Si on microstructure and properties of dilute Al-Zr-Sc-Er alloys were investigated by OM, SEM, EPMA, TEM, STEM, hardness tests, electrical conductivity tests and tensile tests systematically. The results show that the addition of Si promotes to form more Er-rich primary phases in as-cast alloys, which enhances hardness but obviously decreases electrical conductivity of as-cast alloys. Core-double shell structureAl3(Er,Sc,Zr) precipitated with proper heat treatment in Al-Zr-Sc-Er alloys. Si increases the ageing response speed of the alloy, promotes the precipitation of Zr, Sc, Er elements. Si can participate in the nucleation of the (Al,Si)3(Er,Sc,Er) phase. After a two-stage aging treatment (300 ℃, 24 h+400 ℃, 48 h), the hardness and electrical conductivity of alloys with 0.05% Si addition is higher than with no Si addition alloys. However, the addition of Si causes coarsening of the precipitated phase, thereby reducing the recrystallization temperature of the alloy.
