简介:采用光学显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)、透射电镜(TEM)、显微硬度测试、热分析、能谱分析以及X射线衍射(XRD)等手段,研究Mg-10Gd-4.8Y-0.6Zr合金铸态和520℃固溶处理不同时间后的显微组织以及显微硬度分布。结果表明:Mg-10Gd-4.8Y-0.6Zr合金经520℃/16h固溶处理后,铸态时的网状共晶完全溶解到基体中,Gd、Y富集的立方体相弥散分布在晶内;晶内偏析消除,硬度有所降低。合金在固溶处理过程中发生以下组织演变:α-Mg固溶体+网状Mg24(GdY)5相→α-Mg固溶体+断续破碎的Mg24(GdY)5相→α-Mg过饱和固溶体+立方体相。该合金在520℃固溶处理的适宜时间为16h。
