Microstructural Evolution during Partial Remelting of 6061 Aluminum Bulk Alloy Prepared by Cold-Pressing of Alloy Powder
Abstract:
The microstructural evolution was investigated during partial remelting of 6061 aluminum bulk alloy prepared by cold-pressing of atomized alloy powders. Meanwhile, the effect of heating temperature on semisolid microstructure was also studied. It was found that after partial remelted, a semisolid microstructure with small and nearly spherical particles can be obtained. The microstructural evolution can be divided into three stages: the rapid coarsening of grains and powders, the structure separation and spheroidization of powders, and the final coarsening behavior of primary particles. For most of the primary particles (larger than 10 μm) in the semisolid state, one particle originates from one original powder in the cold-pressed bulk alloy. Furthermore, proper elevated the heating temperature is beneficial to obtain ideal semisolid microstructure.
