Abstract
Effects of deformation and annealing on the microstructure and mechanical properties on the CoCrFe8NiMn (hereinafter to be referred as Fe8) medium-entropy alloy were systematically investigated. Two deformation-induced phase transformations (FCC-to-BCC and FCC-to-HCP) occur during the cold-rolling process, while the reverse phase transformations (BCC-to-FCC and HCP-to-FCC) take place undergoing the annealing treatment. A good combination of strength (995 MPa) and plasticity (28.1%) for this alloy was obtained after rolling and annealing. Microstructural analysis confirms the FCC, HCP and BCC phases in this alloy obey specific orientation relationships. Electron backscatter diffraction results reveal that two strain-induced phase transformations (FCC-to-BCC and FCC-to-HCP) occur in the annealed Fe8 alloy sample during the tensile deformation, resulting in the transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect. Thereby, the annealed Fe8 alloy achieves an optimal strength-plasticity balance and becomes a potential candidate used for engineering material.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Materials Science publishes reviews, full-length papers, and short Communications recording original research results on, or techniques for studying the relationship between structure, properties, and uses of materials. The subjects are seen from international and interdisciplinary perspectives covering areas including metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, electrical materials, composite materials, fibers, nanostructured materials, nanocomposites, and biological and biomedical materials. The Journal of Materials Science is now firmly established as the leading source of primary communication for scientists investigating the structure and properties of all engineering materials.
