Microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-3Fe alloy processed by equal channel angular extrusion
Résumé
Al-Fe alloys are attractive for applications at temperatures beyond those normally associated with the conventional aluminum alloys. Under proper solidification condition, a full eutectic microstructure can be generated in Al-Fe alloys at Fe concentration well in excess of the eutectic composition of 1.8 wt.% Fe. The microstructure in this case is characterized by the metastable regular eutectic Al-Al6Fe fibers of nano-scale in diameter, instead of the equilibrium eutectic Al-Al3Fe phase. In this study, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Al-3Fe alloy with metastable Al6Fe particles deformed by equal channel angular extrusion were investigated. Severe plastic deformation results in a microstructure consisting of submicron equiaxed Al grains with a uniform distribution of submicron Al6Fe particles on the grain boundaries. The room temperature tensile properties of the alloy with this microstructure will be presented.
