A model is presented to predict the effectiveness of dilute solutes in delaying precipitate formation, with application to natural and artificial aging in metal alloys. Control of aging is achieved via the binding, at natural aging temperatures, and releas ...
Heavily cold-drawing was performed on a pearlitic steel wire and on an ultra-low carbon (ULC) steel wire in order to highlight and quantify the microstructural changes caused by this type of deformation. Both global techniques (thermoelectric power, electr ...
In the fabrication of heat treatable aluminium parts, solutionising and quenching are key steps in order to obtain the required mechanical characteristics. Fast quenching is necessary to avoid coarse precipitation as this one reduces the mechanical propert ...
Microstructural evolution of a cold-rolled Al-Mn-Fe-Si alloy during annealing was studied. Except the as-cast variant, two other different homogenizations were considered, one gave a high density of fine dispersiods providing a considerable Zener drag infl ...
Investigation of the microstructural evolution of Al-Mn-Fe-Si alloys during annealing after cold rolling has been carried out. The effect of microchemistry state in terms of Mn in solid solution, constituents, size and volume fraction of dispersoids, intro ...
Annealing of supersaturated AA3xxx alloys at low temperatures usually results in sluggish recrystallization kinetics. This is due to the joint effect of the following factors: low nucleation rate, reduced grain boundary mobility, and large amount of fine p ...
In the fabrication of heat-treatable aluminum parts such as AA2618 compressor impellers for turbochargers, solutionizing and quenching are key steps to obtain the required mechanical characteristics. Fast quenching is necessary to avoid coarse precipitatio ...
The influence of microchemistry on the softening behaviour of two cold-rolled Al–Mn–Fe–Si alloys with different initial amounts of Mn (0.4 and 1.0 wt%) is studied. In addition to their as-cast conditions, the supersaturated Al–Mn–Fe-Si alloys were appropri ...
The softening behaviour during non-isothermal annealing of a cold-rolled Al–Mn–Fe–Si model alloy was studied as a function of the state of microchemistry, in terms of the solute level of Mn, size and spatial distribution of the Mn-bearing dispersoids, as w ...
A conventional way to determine precipitation kinetics in heat treatable aluminium alloys is to monitor the associated solute loss by in-situ resistivity. A Gleeble machine is used to perform so called isothermal quenching (IQ) resistivity measurements. IQ ...
