Abstract
- GH4169 is primarily strengthened through precipitation, with heat treatment serving as a crucial method for regulating the precipitates of the alloy. However, the impact of aging temperature on the microstructure and properties of GH4169 has not been thoroughly studied, hindering effective regulation of its microstructure and properties. This study systematically investigated the effects of aging temperature on the evolution of precipitates and mechanical properties of GH4169 alloy using various techniques such as OM, SEM, XRD and TEM. The results indicate that raising the aging temperature leads to an increase in the sizes of both the γ″ and γ′ phases in the alloy, as well as promoting the precipitation of δ phase at grain boundaries. Notably, the increase in γ″ phase size enhances the strength of the alloy, while the presence of δ phase is detrimental to its strength but greatly enhances its elongation. The yield strength of the alloy aged at 750 ℃ exhibits the highest yield strength, with values of 1135 MPa and 1050 MPa at room temperature and elevated temperature, respectively. As the aging temperature increases, the Portevin-Le Châtelier (PLC) effect during elevated temperature tensile tests at 650 ℃ gradually weakens. The PLC effect disappears almost completely when the aging temperature reaches 780 ℃. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
