摘要
The Mg-5Bi-xCu (x=0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, mass fraction, %) alloy ingots were prepared by conventional casting. The microstructures of as-cast alloys and precipitate hardening behavior were investigated. The results show that the as-cast Mg-Bi-Cu alloy is mainly composed of α -Mg, Mg3Bi2, MgCu2 and Mg2Cu phases. The orientation relationships between α -Mg matrix and Mg3Bi2 phase are (2-110)Mg3Bi2∥(01-11)Mg and [011-2]Mg3Bi2∥ [011-2]Mg. The orientation relationships between Mg2Cu phase and Mg3Bi2 phase are (111-)Mg2Cu∥(011-0)Mg3Bi2 and [1-10]Mg2Cu∥[0001]Mg3Bi2. The hardness of the alloy increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of Cu addition amount, and the highest hardness of (50.9±1.2)HV is achieved in the alloy with 0.5% Cu. The hardness of Mg-5Bi-0.5Cu alloy after solid-solution treatment is (49.8±0.9)HV. After aging at 175 ℃ for 64 h, the peak hardness of the alloy is (56.1±0.7)HV. The increase of aging hardness is attributed to the precipitation strengthening effect of high density Mg3Bi2. Moreover, due to the addition of Cu element, the long rod-shaped Mg3Bi2 precipitates transform to the granular and short rod-shaped precipitates. © 2023 Central South University of Technology.
