For laser additive manufacturing, aluminum-based materials are regarded as difficult-to-fabricate materials be- cause of their special physical properties, including low density, low laser absorption, high thermal conductivity, and ease of oxidation. Currently, LPBF-formed structural materials require high densification, fine grains, high specific strength, high ductility, and optimized physical or chemical properties. Therefore, comprehensive un- derstanding of the fabrication and performance of Al-based materials processed by LPBF is of significant value. This paper covers emerging research on aluminum-based materials using LPBF, providing an overall view of the basic scientific mechanisms behind manufacturing. The state-of-the-art researches of aluminum-based materials for LPBF formability as well as the microstructures, properties and corresponding metallurgical mechanisms are reviewed. The mechanisms of some of the main defects (pores, cracks, balling, and oxide inclusions) and control measures are also discussed. A summary and outlook for the further development of Al-based materials for LPBF are addressed.展开更多

The discharge images, optical emission spectra (OES), the applied voltage and current waveforms of the discharge at the changed airflow rates are obtained. When airflow rate is increased, the transition of the discharge mode and the variations of discharge intensity, breakdown characteristics and the temperature of the discharge plasma are investigated. The results show that the discharge becomes more diffuse, discharge intensity is decreased accompanied by the increased breakdown voltage and time lag, and the temperature of the discharge plasma reduces when airflow of small velocity is introduced into the discharge gap. These phenomena are because that the airflow changes the spatial distribution of the heat and the space charge in the discharge gap.展开更多

In comparison with their single-frequency counterpart, the interaction between the two excitations is significant and beneficial. The results show that the RF discharge can effectively increase the DC discharge current and decrease the DC voltage; meanwhile the DC discharge is favorable to feed abundant high energy seed electrons to the ICP discharge sustaining at 13.56 MHz for the latter to acquire higher plasma density and lower plasma potential by increasing the ionization rate. The innovative design has been demonstrated to facilitate more homogeneous performance with higher plasma density.展开更多

Under atmospheric-pressure solidification, Mg-6Zn-1Y consisted of α-Mg, Mg7Zn3 and Mg_3YZn_6; whilst Mg-6Zn-3Y consisted of α-Mg, Mg_3Y_2Zn_3 and Mg_3YZn_6. Under 6 GPa high-pressure solidification, both alloy consisted of α-Mg, MgZ n and Mg12 YZn. The shape of the main second phase changed from a lamellar structure formed for atmospheric-pressure solidification to small particles formed for solidification at 6 GPa pressure. The dendrite microstructure was refined and was more regular, and the length of the primary dendrite arm increased under 6 GPa high-pressure solidification, which was attributed to increasing thermal undercooling, compositional undercooling and kinetics undercooling. After solidification at 6 GPa pressure, the solid solubility of Y in the second phase and the Vickers-hardness increased from 15 wt.% and 69 MPa for Mg-6Zn-1Y to 49 wt.% and 97 MPa; and from 19 wt.% and 71 MPa for Mg-6Zn-3Y alloy to 20 wt.% and 92 MPa, respectively.展开更多

文摘The effect of high pressure during solidification on the microstructure and mechanical property of Mg-6Zn-1Y and Mg-6Zn-3Y was investigated using optical microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Vickers-hardness testing. Under atmospheric-pressure solidification, Mg-6Zn-1Y consisted of α-Mg, Mg7Zn3 and Mg_3YZn_6; whilst Mg-6Zn-3Y consisted of α-Mg, Mg_3Y_2Zn_3 and Mg_3YZn_6. Under 6 GPa high-pressure solidification, both alloy consisted of α-Mg, MgZ n and Mg12 YZn. The shape of the main second phase changed from a lamellar structure formed for atmospheric-pressure solidification to small particles formed for solidification at 6 GPa pressure. The dendrite microstructure was refined and was more regular, and the length of the primary dendrite arm increased under 6 GPa high-pressure solidification, which was attributed to increasing thermal undercooling, compositional undercooling and kinetics undercooling. After solidification at 6 GPa pressure, the solid solubility of Y in the second phase and the Vickers-hardness increased from 15 wt.% and 69 MPa for Mg-6Zn-1Y to 49 wt.% and 97 MPa; and from 19 wt.% and 71 MPa for Mg-6Zn-3Y alloy to 20 wt.% and 92 MPa, respectively.
