Micromechanisms of fracture of AZ61-F composites in the zone of quasi-superplastic deformation were analyzed and quantified in this work. Deformation of AZ61-F magnesium alloys with 1 wt.% of Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> phase was tested at a temperature of 473 K and different strain rates. It was shown that at the temperature of 473 K and the highest strain rate applied from 1<em>× </em>10<em><sup>−</sup></em><sup>2</sup> to 1 <em>× </em>10<em><sup>−</sup></em><sup>4</sup> s<em><sup>−</sup></em><sup>1</sup>, a significant growth of ductility was observed. The mean dimples diameter of the ductile fracture decreased with the decreasing strain rate. The grain size of 0.7 μm was reached by severe plastic deformation using equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). Secondary Mg<sub>17</sub>Al<sub>12</sub> and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> phases were identified. The maximum strain was reached at the temperature of 473 K and strain rate of 1 <em>× </em>10<em><sup>−</sup></em><sup>4</sup> s<em><sup>−</sup></em><sup>1</sup>.

The microstructure of Al – Cu – Mg – Fe – Ni alloys with Mn and Zr additions was analyzed by optical and scanning electron microscopy, internal friction, X-ray and calorimetric analysis in order to optimize technology of superplastic alloy preparation. It is shown that the S (Al2CuMg) phase precipitates during hot rolling and dissolves during annealing. This allows to create fine-grained recrystallized structure and to achieve elongation of 320 % at the strain rate of 1×10-3s-1during superplasticity testing. It is shown that annealing in saltpeter before superplastic deformation improves the superplastic behavior: at the constant strain rate of 4×10-3s-1elongation is 500 %.

AbstractWe have investigated the flow stress and elongation of superplastic deformation in a La55Al25Ni20 (at%) metallic glass that has a wide supercooled liquid region of 72 K before crystallization. The superplasticity that appeared in the supercooled liquid region was generated by the Newtonian viscous flow that exhibits the m value of unity. The elongation to failure was restricted by the transition of the Newtonian flow to non-Newtonian one and the crystallization during deformation. We succeeded in establishing the constitutive formulation of the flow stress in the supercooled liquid region. Its formulation was expressed very well by a stretched exponential function σflow=Dε exp(H*/RT) [1-exp(E/{ε exp(H**/RT)}0.82)]. Formulations describing the elongation to failure in constant-strain-rate and constant-crosshead velocity tests were, moreover, established. It was found from the simulation that the maximum elongation in the constant-strain-rate test reached more than 106% which was two orders of magnitude larger than that in the constant-crosshead-velocity test.

An AlCoCrCuFeNi high entropy alloy was multiaxially isothermally forged at 950°C to produce a fine equiaxed structure with the average grain/particle size of ~1.5 µm. The forged alloy exhibited superplastic behavior in the temperature range of 800-1000°C. For example, during deformation at a strain rate of 10-3 s-1, tensile ductility increased from 400% to 860% when the temperature increased from 800°C to 1000°C. An increase in strain rate from 10-4 to 10-2 s-1 at T = 1000°C did not affect ductility: elongation to failure was about 800%. The strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress was rather high, m = 0.6, which is typical to the superplastic behavior. The equiaxed morphology of grains and particles retained after the superplastic deformation, although some grain/particle growth was observed.

Increasing the strain rate at superplastic forming is a challenging technical and economic task of aluminum forming manufacturing. New aluminum sheets exhibiting high strain rate superplasticity at strain rates above 0.01 s−1 are required. This study describes the microstructure and the superplasticity properties of a new high-strength Al-Zn-Mg-based alloy processed by a simple thermomechanical treatment including hot and cold rolling. The new alloy contains Ni to form Al3Ni coarse particles and minor additions of Zr (0.19 wt.%) and Sc (0.06 wt.%) to form nanoprecipitates of the L12-Al3 (Sc,Zr) phase. The design of chemical and phase compositions of the alloy provides superplasticity with an elongation of 600–800% in a strain rate range of 0.01 to 0.6/s and residual cavitation less than 2%. A mean elongation-to-failure of 400% is observed at an extremely high constant strain rate of 1 s−1. The strain-induced evolution of the grain and dislocation structures as well as the L12 precipitates at superplastic deformation is studied. The dynamic recrystallization at superplastic deformation is confirmed. The superplastic flow behavior of the proposed alloy is modeled via a mathematical Arrhenius-type constitutive model and an artificial neural network model. Both models exhibit good predictability at low and high strain rates of superplastic deformation.

ABSTRACTThe superplastic behavior of a NiAI and Ni3Al duplex alloy was investigated. It was found that the alloy exhibits superplastic behavior over a narrow temperature range, from 975 °C to 1025°C at the strain rate of 1.52 × 10-4 s-1. A maximum tensile elongation of 149% was obtained at 1000°C with the strain rate sensitivity up to 0.375. The superplastic deformation of the duplex alloy can be approximately described by an empirical equation of the form: ε = Ao2.67 exp(-303,000 / RT). Optical microstructure and TEM observation show that the superplastic behavior mechanism of the investigated alloy is a process of continuous recovery and recrystallization during deformation.

Plane strain compression tests have been carried out on Ti stabilised interstitial free steel at 700oC with constant and changing strain rates. Specimens were annealed in a salt bath at 750oC to determine the effects of changing strain rate on the kinetics of static recrystallisation and on the recrystallised grain size. After relatively slow changes in rate, the recrystallisation behaviour at the end of the change was the same as for tests at constant strain rate with the final value. For faster changes in rate, there were transients in recrystallisation rate and recrystallised grain size at the end of the change in strain rate at a strain of 1.0. These were removed by a further increment of 0.1 strain at constant rate. In all cases the recrystallised grain size correlated with the subgrain size present at the end of deformation.

The influence of temperature, grain size and strain rate on superplasticity of magnesium is investigated. Different approaches are compared along with their experimental results to show the variation in the amount of superplasticity by varying above mentioned parameters. At room temperature magnesium alloys usually have poor formability but recent studies of some alloys such as ZE10, AZ31, AZ61 AZ60, AZ80 and AZ91 are pointing that by varying the temperature along with grain size and strain rate improved formability is possible or even superplastic forming of these alloys can be achieved to meet the demands of automotive, aircraft and other weight conscious industries.

Superplastic behavior of the Zr65Al10Ni10Cu15 glass metallic alloy produced by powdermetallurgy method was examined in the supercooled liquid region. Stress-strain and stress-strain rate relationships showed that Newtonian viscous flow governed the plastic flow until strain hardening took place. The large strain hardening was proved to a result of occurrence of crystallization during deformation.
