Abstract
This study investigates the recrystallization behavior of Sc/Zr-modified AA5182 alloy sheet focusing on the role of Al3(Sc,Zr) dispersoid distribution during annealing across a broad temperature range (250–550 °C). It shows that densely distributed Al3(Sc,Zr) dispersoids effectively inhibit recrystallization up to 450 °C by exerting strong Zener pinning pressure, and extremely suppress particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN). By contrast, at temperatures as low as 350 °C, a sparse distribution of dispersoids exhibits diminished recrystallization resistance and fails to inhibit PSN. While Al3(Sc,Zr) dispersoids maintain excellent thermal stability below 450 °C, rapid coarsening/dissolution occurs above this threshold, triggering abnormal grain growth via strain-induced boundary migration (SIBM) in high-density dispersoid-containing alloys. HRTEM characterization reveals that dispersoid-matrix coherency evolves dynamically during grain boundary (GB) interactions: low-angle GBs (LAGBs) encounter dispersoids, leading to semi-coherency by the introduction of misfit dislocations. High-angle GBs (HAGBs) bypass dispersoids, resulting in incoherency at the Al3(Sc,Zr)/Al interface.
期刊介绍:
Materials Characterization features original articles and state-of-the-art reviews on theoretical and practical aspects of the structure and behaviour of materials.
The Journal focuses on all characterization techniques, including all forms of microscopy (light, electron, acoustic, etc.,) and analysis (especially microanalysis and surface analytical techniques). Developments in both this wide range of techniques and their application to the quantification of the microstructure of materials are essential facets of the Journal.
The Journal provides the Materials Scientist/Engineer with up-to-date information on many types of materials with an underlying theme of explaining the behavior of materials using novel approaches. Materials covered by the journal include:
Metals & Alloys
Ceramics
Nanomaterials
Biomedical materials
Optical materials
Composites
Natural Materials.
