Abstract:The in-situ Al3(Ti0.5Zr0.5) composite was synthesized using K2TiF6 and K2ZrF6 components in 7055 aluminum alloy by melt direct reaction method. Cryogenic aging circular treatment (CACT) was performed after extrusion deformation and solution-aging heat treatment. The effects of cooling rate (v), processing time (t) and circular index (N) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composites were studied by orthogonal experimental method. The composite was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under cryogenic condition, and the microstructure of composite was studied by SEM and TEM. The result shows that when the specimen is heated from the cryogenic temperature (77 K) to about 165 K, there will be an obvious exothermic peak. The phase transforms from matrix to S phase (Al2CuMg). There are amounts of fine precipitates in the composites, the main components are regarded as η (MgZn2) and η′(MgZn2′) phases. With increasing the v, t and N, the amount of η′ phase that is unstable but hard will decrease, while the stable but soft η phase will increase. Compared with the sample without CACT, the average tensile strength (σb), impact toughness (ak) and elongation (δ) of the sample with CACT have been enhanced by 14.7%,10.9% and 50%, respectively. The main fracture mechanism is dimple one. When the samples with high σb and ak are acquired, the optimal CACT parameters are: v=1 ℃/min; t=24 h and N=1 or 2. When the samples with superior elongation are acquired, the corresponding CACT parameters are: v=10 ℃/min, t=36 h and N=1. The strengthening mechanisms of CACT composite are precipitation strengthening, dislocation strengthening and fine crystalline strengthening.
