Role of LPSO Phase in Crack Propagation Behavior of an As-Cast Mg-Y-Zn Alloy Subjected to Dynamic Loadings
In this work, the role of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase in the crack propagation behavior of an as-cast Mg(95.5)Y(3)Zn(1.5) alloy was investigated by dynamic four-point bent tests. The as-cast Mg(95.5)Y(3)Zn(1.5) alloy is mainly composed of Mg matrix, 18R LPSO phase located at the grain...

Sumario: | In this work, the role of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase in the crack propagation behavior of an as-cast Mg(95.5)Y(3)Zn(1.5) alloy was investigated by dynamic four-point bent tests. The as-cast Mg(95.5)Y(3)Zn(1.5) alloy is mainly composed of Mg matrix, 18R LPSO phase located at the grain boundaries and 14H LPSO phase located within the Mg matrix. The alloy exhibits excellent dynamic mechanical properties; the yield stress, maximum stress and strain to failure are 190.51 ± 3.52 MPa, 378.32 ± 4.26 MPa and 0.168 ± 0.006, respectively, at the strain rate of ~3000 s(−1). The LPSO phase effectively hinders dynamic crack propagation in four typical ways, including crack tip blunting, crack opening inhibition, crack deflection and crack bridging, which are beneficial to the mechanical properties of the alloy under dynamic loadings. |
