The present study aims to investigate the mechanical properties of a newly developed aluminum Al-6.5% Cu-based alloy, coded HT200, as well as to determine how these properties can be further improved using grain refinement and heat treatment. As a result, the effects of different heat treatments and alloying additions on the ambient and high-temperature tensile properties were examined. Three alloys were selected for this study: (i) the base HT200 alloy (coded A), (ii) the base HT200 alloy containing 0.15% Ti + 0.15% Zr (coded B), and (iii) the base HT200 alloy containing 0.15% Ti + 0.15% Zr + 0.5%Ag (coded C). The properties of the three HT200 alloys were compared with those of 319 and 356 alloys (coded D and E, respectively), subjected to the same heat treatment conditions. The results obtained show the optimum high-temperature tensile properties and Q-values for the five alloys of interest, along with the corresponding heat treatment conditions associated with these properties. It was found that the T6 heat-treated alloy B was the optimum alloy in terms of properties obtained, with values comparable to those of commercial B319.0 and A356.0 alloys.

Coherent annealing-twin boundaries are constant structure and energy interfaces with an average interfacial free energy of ∼19mJ/m2 versus ∼210 and ∼835mJ/m2 for incoherent twins and “regular” grain boundaries respectively in 304 stainless steels (SS). Due to their low energy, coherent twins form carbides about a factor of 100 slower than grain boundaries, and limited work has also shown differences in Cr-depletion (sensitization) between twin versus grain boundaries. Plastic deformation, may, however, alter the kinetics and thermodynamics of twin-sensitization which is not well understood. The objective of this work was to understand the mechanisms of carbide precipitation and Cr-depletion on coherent twin boundaries in deformed SS. The research is directed toward using this invariant structure and energy interface to understand and model the role of interfacial characteristics on deformation-induced sensitization in SS. Carbides and Cr-depletion were examined on a 20%-strain, 0.051%C-304SS, heat treated to 625°C-4.5h, as described elsewhere.

This study focuses on the role of Mo addition on the mechanical properties of an Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloy in as-cast and heat-treated condition at ambient and elevated temperature. Addition of 0.4 to 0.6 wt.% Mo forms Mo-bearing dispersoid particles which have a relatively high melting point and improve high temperature tensile strength. Ductility suffered in the presence of Mo-bearing particles. Trace addition of Mo up to 0.6 wt.% has a negligible influence on the yield strength and hardness of Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloy in as-cast and heat-treated conditions at ambient temperature and 250 °C.
