  • precipitates zones and transitions during aging of al zn mg zr 7000 series Alloy
    Materials Science and Technology, 2004
    Co-Authors: V Hansen, O Karlsen, Y Langsrud, J Gjonnes
    Abstract:

    AbstractAge hardening of an industrial 7000 series Alloy in the temperature range 70-150° C has been followed by mechanical testing, electrical conductivity measurement, differential scanning calorimetry and extensive electron microscopy (TEM). The property changes during aging are interpreted in terms of structural transformations that involve two types of Guinier-Preston (GP) zones (I and II), the metastable hardening precipitate η′ and the stable phase η-MgZn2, as well as coarsening, changes of composition and internal order within zones and precipitates. Time-temperature ranges of the transformations during aging, and its dependence on quenching temperature, are estimated from TEM observations. The role of the GP(II) zones in the aging of Alloys quenched from temperatures above 450°C is emphasized.

  • coupling of dislocations and precipitates impact on the mechanical behavior of ultrafine grained al zn mg Alloys
    Acta Materialia, 2016
    Co-Authors: Hanry Yang, E J Lavernia, Troy D Topping, Ali Yousefiani, Julie M. Schoenung
    Abstract:

    Abstract Intragranular coupling of dislocations and precipitates is accomplished in an ultrafine grained aluminum 7000 series Alloy through a unique thermo-mechanical processing route that involves high strain rate extrusion at ambient temperature as the last step. The as-extruded materials also exhibited a unique bimodal microstructure consisting of: (1) elongated lamellar grains with dimensions of ∼1 μm consisting of sub-grains via low angle grain boundaries, and (2) ultrafine grains approximately ∼100 nm in size with high angle grain boundaries. Our investigation shows that coupling of dislocations and precipitates within the ultrafine grains has a beneficial impact on the mechanical behavior, and results in an extremely high strength, i.e., ultimate tensile strength ∼878 MPa, with uniform elongation of 4.1% strain at fracture. Interestingly, the T6 temper leads to a decrease in strength for the ultrafine grained material with intragranular dislocations while it enhances ductility, which is opposite the behavior observed in the ultrafine grained material that does not contain a high density of intragranular dislocations. This phenomenon is attributed to the loss in dislocation strengthening and grain boundary strengthening, which could not be compensated for by the strength increase due to precipitation. The underlying mechanisms are discussed on the basis of in-situ heating in a transmission electron microscope, theoretical analysis of diffusion controlled precipitation and microstructure characterization, including transmission Kikuchi diffraction.
