- Abstract
- A trace addition of Zr to a multicomponent Al-14Si-3Cu-4.5Ni casting alloy has often been found to form a coarse plate-like Zr-rich intermetallic compound with a size of a few tens of mu m at the beginning of solidification. Evaluation of the phase composition has confirmed that the Zr-rich intermetallic phase consists of multicomponent constituent elements, mainly Al, Si, Ni and Fe, and is present in a form of (Al,Si)(3)(Zr,Ni,Fe). The existence of such a complex (Al,Si)(3)(Zr,NLFe) phase has not yet been predicted by phase equilibria calculation of the multicomponent Al-14Si-CuNiMg systems. In this paper, transmission electron microscopy studies combined with electron backscattered diffraction pattern analysis reveals the crystallography information of the (Al,Si)(3)(Zr, Ni,Fe) phase for the first time and identifies it as a modified Al3Zr-D023 crystal (tetragonal, I4/mmm(139)) with slightly changed lattice parameters of a = b = 3.275 angstrom and c = 15.475 angstrom. The primary (Al,Si)(3)(Zr,Ni,Fe) phase is found to nucleate directly onto AlP partides. The mechanical properties of the Zr-rich intermetallics were also investigated using nanoindentation at both room and elevated temperatures and were compared to those of the Si phase.
