摘要
In the present work, the effects of heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of A390 alloy were investigated. The results show that the as-cast microstructure of A390 alloy mainly consists of primary silicon, alpha-Al, eutectic silicon and Al2Cu phase. The morphology of primary silicon is irregular polygonal block with sharp edges. Eutectic silicon exhibits a coarse plate-like and acicular morphology and the fishbone like Al2Cu phases are gathered at the grain boundary. During solution treatment, eutectic silicon undergoes fragmentation and spheroidization and T6 heat treatment has a profound effect on the dissolution of Cu and Mg. However, the morphology and size of primary silicon changes little. After the aging process, Al2Cu phases are precipited as lamellar morphology. As a result, the mechanical properties the heat treated A390 alloy increases significantly after T6 treatment.
