In this study, the microstructural evolution of a highly ductile Mg–Er–Zr alloy sheet was examined in various bending regions under different bending strains using electron backscatter diffraction and optical microscopy. The results show that the Mg–Er–Zr extruded sheet has excellent bending properties, with a failure bending strain of 39.3%, bending yield strength, and ultimate bending strength of 75.1 MPa and 250.5 MPa, respectively. The exceptional bending properties of the Mg–Er–Zr extruded sheets are primarily due to their fine grain size and the formation of rare-earth (RE) textures resulting from Er addition. Specifically, the in-grain misorientation axes (IGMA) and the twinning behaviors in various regions of the specimen during bending were thoroughly analyzed. Due to the polarity of the tensile twins and their low activation stress, a significant number of tensile twins are activated in the compression zone to regulate plastic deformation. The addition of Er weakens the basal texture of the sheet and reduces the critical resolved shear stress difference between non-basal slip and basal slip. Consequently, in the tensile zone, the basal and non-basal slips co-operate to coordinate the plastic deformation, effectively impeding crack initiation and propagation, and thereby enhancing the bending toughness of the Mg–Er–Zr sheet.</div>","PeriodicalId":457,"journal":{"name":"Acta Metallurgica Sinica-English Letters","volume":"38 7","pages":"1109 - 1126"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145160628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With increasing Yb content, a significant grain refinement was observed, accompanied by the continuous refinement and fragmentation of the initial β-Mg17Al12 phase network. Concurrently, the Al3Yb phase formed and coarsened. Calculations including formation enthalpy and lattice misfit, confirm that the Al3Yb phase, which nucleates prior to the α-Mg and β-Mg17Al12 phases and exhibits a low lattice misfit with their low-index planes, serves as an effective heterogeneous nucleation site, significantly contributing to the observed microstructural refinement. Furthermore, Yb addition fundamentally suppresses constitutional supercooling by consuming Al atoms, which possess a high growth restriction factor, for the formation of Al–Yb phases. Subsequent tensile testing reveals that Yb solute promotes the generation of extension twins and the accumulation of dislocations during deformation, leading to a marked enhancement in the work-hardening capacity of the Yb-containing alloys.

However, the high carrier concentration and lattice thermal conductivity observed in SnTe are not solely attributable to the presence of numerous intrinsic tin vacancies and a simple crystal structure. Additionally, the oxides formed through the oxidation of Sn and SnTe exert a partial influence on these properties. In this study, by pretreating the raw Sn material and isolating it from oxygen during preparation, we achieve a significant improvement in the thermoelectric performance of binary SnTe at high temperatures, with a peak ZT of approximately 0.83 at 800 K. This approach effectively reduces the content of SnO2 in the matrix, enhancing the electrical and thermal transport properties of the samples. Specifically, the high-thermal conductivity of SnO2 facilitates the formation of channels at grain boundaries that are more conducive to heat transfer, while its poor electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient diminish the intrinsic electrical transport behavior of SnTe. The removal of SnO2 reflects the true thermoelectric performance of SnTe, making the samples prepared by this method stand out compared to other reported binary SnTe materials.</div>","PeriodicalId":457,"journal":{"name":"Acta Metallurgica Sinica-English Letters","volume":"38 5","pages":"754 - 762"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143892656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines the impact of annealing temperature on impact abrasive wear. The results have indicated that samples annealed at different temperatures display plowing and fatigue wear effects. In the initial wear stage, the high-temperature annealed steel outperforms samples annealed at a lower temperature in terms of anti-plowing wear performance. This phenomenon is mainly due to the lower initial hardness of the samples subjected to low-temperature annealing. However, with prolonged wear time, the low-temperature annealed samples exhibit improved plowing wear performance, which is ascribed to a refinement of the lamellar microstructure and an increased residual austenite (RA), which enhances the work hardening effect, improving the hardness of the worn surface. The low-temperature annealed samples consistently delivered superior fatigue wear performance when compared with samples annealed at the higher temperature. The latter effect may be attributed to two factors. Firstly, the finer lamellar microstructure in the low-temperature annealed samples, coupled with greater RA, results in transformation-induced plasticity or twin-induced plasticity effect that hinders crack formation and propagation. Secondly, the low-temperature annealed samples form nanoscale equiaxed grains near the worn surface during the wear process. These grains can withstand crack driving forces in fine-grained regions, suppressing the formation and propagation of cracks.</div>","PeriodicalId":457,"journal":{"name":"Acta Metallurgica Sinica-English Letters","volume":"38 6","pages":"1041 - 1056"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145169931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
