Serration Behavior

Serration behavior is a kind of plastic instability phenomenon of materials, which widely exists in the high-entropy alloys and has influence on microstructure and mechanical properties. In this work, the microstructure and mechanical properties of a NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy (HEA) were studied under high-speed impact. The microstructure of a NiCrFeCoMn HEA were investigated by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The dislocation density increased with the true strain at high-strain-rate deformation, and the dislocations can be hindered and released continually by the twin layers, resulting in serration on the true stress—true strain curve. When values of the strain rates are 1250, 2000 and 4800 s−1, the yield strength of the deformed NiCrFeCoMn HEA are 510, 525 and 680 MPa, respectively. Moreover, the fluctuation of the serration became more serious with the increasing of the strain rate. Compared with the as-cast NiCrFeCoMn HEA, the true stress—true strain curve of the deformed NiCrFeCoMn HEAwas smoother.

Arc Melting

The equiatomic NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy prepared by arc melting has a single crystallographic structure. Mechanical properties and microstructure of the NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy deformed at high strain rates (900 s−1 to 4600 s−1) were investigated. The yield strength of the NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy is sensitive to the change of high strain rates. Serration behaviors were also observed on the flow stress curves of the alloy deformed at the strain rates ranging from 900 s−1 to 4600 s−1. The Zerilli–Armstrong constitutive equation can be used to predict the flow stress curves of the NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy. Large amounts of deformation bands led to obvious serration behaviors of the NiCrFeCoMn high-entropy alloy under dynamic loading.

The dynamic mechanical properties and microstructure of the (Al0.5CoCrFeNi)0.95Mo0.025C0.025 high entropy alloy (HEA) prepared by powder extrusion were investigated by a split Hopkinson pressure bar and electron probe microanalyzer and scanning electron microscope. The (Al0.5CoCrFeNi)0.95Mo0.025C0.025 HEA has a uniform face-centered cubic plus body-centered cubic solid solution structure and a fine grain-sized microstructure with a size of about 2 microns. The HEA possesses an excellent strain hardening rate and high strain rate sensitivity at a high strain rate. The Johnson–Cook plastic model was used to describe the dynamic flow behavior. Hat-shaped specimens with different nominal strain levels were used to investigate forced shear localization. After dynamic deformation, a thin and short shear band was generated in the designed shear zone and then the specimen quickly fractured along the shear band.

In this paper, the dynamic mechanical properties of GH4720Li nickel-base alloy under a large temperature range and high and low strain rates were studied by the hot compression test. The difference of mechanical properties of GH4720Li alloy under high and low strain rates was analyzed from the perspective of microstructure. The hot compression test experimental results showed that the true stress of GH4720Li alloy decreased at a low strain rate as the trial temperature elevated. Nevertheless, it was abnormal that the true stress increased at high strain rate condition as temperature elevated. By comparing the microstructure under high and low strain rates, it was found that the precipitates under low strain conditions contained a large amount of Cr (Mo). However, the content of Cr (Mo) in the precipitates at a high strain rate decreased, while the content of Fe increased. It would be concluded that Cr (Mo) would reduce the compressive strength and plasticity of GH4720Li alloy, while Fe would increase the compressive strength and plasticity of GH4720Li alloy. In addition, under the condition of a low strain rate, the shape of Cr (Mo) precipitates obtained at 20°C was lamellar, but it was spherical at 800°C. The compressive strength of GH4720Li composites with lamellar precipitates was higher than that of spherical precipitates.

This paper presents a method for acquiring true stress–strain curves using engineering strain curves obtained from upset forging of cylindrical specimens. The main problem deals with determination the true strain in upset hot forging on hummers when the values of strain rates are differ in the range from 0 to 10-3s. At such strain rates due to wave processes strain distribution in cylindrical specimen will be uneven. The purpose of this publication is to analytically determine the strain distribution in compressed cylindrical specimen.

Microstructure And Mechanical Properties

Microstructure and mechanical properties of equiatomic CrMnCoNiCu alloy in which Fe was substituted by Cu from Cantor alloy was studied. The separation of solid solution phase into two solid solutions (Cr-Co rich and Cu-rich phases) were observed in CrMnCoNiCu. The coarsening and widening of interdendritic Cu-rich phase after homogenization was observed and supported by the increase of XRD peak height from Cu-rich phase compared to that from Cr-Co rich phase after homogenization. The increase of the peak from Cu-rich phase can be attributed to the thermodynamic stability of Cu due to positive mixing enthalpy of adding Cu. The stress-strain curves of CrMnCoNiCu alloy exhibited the reasonably high strength and excellent deformability for the cast alloy. The yield stress of CrMnCoNiCu was observed to be 390MPa and it could be deformed without crack formation up to the true strain 0.85 to reach the flow stress as high as 662Mpa.

Plastic Process

The mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of Au nanowire during the tensile processes at different strain rates are revealed by the molecular dynamics method. It is found that the Au nanowire displays three distinct types of mechanical behaviors when tensioning at low, medium and high strain rates, respectively. At the low strain rate, the stress–strain curve displays a periodic zigzag increase–decrease feature, and the plastic deformation is resulted from the slide of dislocation. The dislocations nucleate, propagate, and finally annihilate in every decreasing stages of stress, and the nanowire always can recover to FCC-ordered structure. At the medium strain rate, the stress–strain curve gently decreases during the plastic process, and the deformation is contributed from sliding and twinning. The dislocations formed in the yield stage do not fully propagate and further escape from the nanowire. At the high strain rate, the stress-strain curve wave-like oscillates during the plastic process, and the deformation is resulted from amorphization. The FCC atoms quickly transform into disordered amorphous structure in the yield stage. The relative magnitude between the loading velocity of strain and the propagation velocity of phonons determines the different deformation mechanisms. The mechanical behavior of Au nanowire is similar to Ni, Cu and Pt nanowires, but their deformation mechanisms are not completely identical with each other.

Hierarchical Porous

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present excellent mechanical properties. However, the exploitation of chemical properties of HEAs is far less than that of mechanical properties, which is mainly limited by the low specific surface area of HEAs synthesized by traditional methods. Thus, it is vital to develop new routes to fabricate HEAs with novel three-dimensional structures and a high specific surface area. Herein, we develop a facile approach to fabricate nanoporous noble metal quasi-HEA microspheres by melt-spinning and dealloying. The as-obtained nanoporous Cu30Au23Pt22Pd25 quasi-HEA microspheres present a hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area of 69.5 m2/g and a multiphase approximatively componential solid solution characteristic with a broad single-group face-centered cubic XRD pattern, which is different from the traditional single-phase or two-phase solid solution HEAs. To differentiate, these are named quasi-HEAs. The synthetic strategy proposed in this paper opens the door for the synthesis of porous quasi-HEAs related materials, and is expected to promote further applications of quasi-HEAs in various chemical fields.
