摘要
The effect of Be addition on the aging behavior of UNS 03370 (Al11Si3Cu0.3Mg) was investigated by micro-hardness measurement, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis. Age hardening analysis shows Be additions to an Al11Si3Cu0.3Mg alloy accelerates the age hardening rate and increases the peak hardness by 15 HV during aging at 160 degreesC. DSC shows that Be additions lead to an endothermic peak corresponding to the dissolution of Gunier Preston zones (GP I) disappear with exothermic peaks corresponding to precipitation of GP II zones and the lambda' and/or theta' phases shift to low temperature. DSC and TEM analyses show that GP II zones are more effective than V and/or theta' on hardening the alloy, and Be addition increases the homogeneous nucleation density of GP II zones. The possible Be atoms participating in the precipitation process during aging and the high Be-vacancy binding energy can explain the effect of Be on aging behavior of Al11Si3Cu0.3Mg alloy.
