Abstract
The damage characteristics of different speed sections of Cu−Cr−Zr alloy rail after simulated launch were studied. The microstructure, morphologies and properties of samples were investigated by using XRD, XPS, EBSD, SEM, hardness test, electrochemical test and DSC techniques. It was found that deposition layers were formed on the surfaces of the simulated launch samples. The thickness and surface roughness of these deposition layers increased with increasing the heat effect, suggesting a launch speed dependent damage degree of the arc ablation. The hardness variation of samples is attributed to the effects of the deposition layer and deformation hardening. The surface deposition layer affects corrosion resistance and crystalline characteristics, leading to changes in subsequent service performances. Additionally, the surface texture and plastic deformation ability of the samples are related to the recrystallization degree and deformation grain amount.
