摘要
In this paper, the structure transformation and element distribution of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy with 0.2% Sc(mass fraction) in different states were studied. The results show that the addition of 0.2% Sc can help suppress dendrite segregation and eliminate the non-equilibrium eutectic structure, then an alloy with a grain size of 55-80 μm (accounting for 75% of the total) is obtained. A large number of T(AlZnMgCu) phases are distributed at the grain boundaries of the as-cast structure. After being kept at 465 ℃ for 24 h, the T phase is completely transformed into S(Al2CuMg) phase. Holding at 465℃ for 24 h, the S phase disappears at the grain boundary and only a small amount of impurity phase (Al7Cu2Fe) remains. Through the two-stage homogenization treatment, the average grain size is reduced to 40 μm. A large amount of L12-type Al3Sc phases with the sizes of about 40 nm are dispersed inside the alloy, which are completely coherent with the α(Al) matrix and effectively hinder the coarsening of grains. © 2021, China Science Publishing & Media Ltd.
