Abstract
The microstructure, phase composition and mechanical properties of ternary Al-5.4Ni-2Sn (mass fraction) alloy solidified under different high pressures were researched. The results show that the phase composition of the alloy solidified at different pressures is Al, Al3Ni and β-Sn. The thermodynamic phase diagram of the ternary alloy Al-5.4Ni-2Sn was calculated under the equilibrium condition. The results demonstrate that the solidification process is as follows: L→Al3Ni→(α-Al + Al3Ni)eutectic→(α-Al + Al3Ni + β-Sn)eutectic. The hardness values of α-Al phase at ambient pressure, 2 GPa and 4 GPa are 1.5 GPa, 1.62 GPa and 1.99 GPa, respectively. This is an increase of 8% and 32.7%, respectively. The hardness of β-Sn phase decreases by about 31.2% at 4 GPa. When the deformation is 30%, the compressive strength at ambient pressure, 2 GPa and 4 GPa is 538.1 MPa, 1403.2 MPa and 1547.9 MPa, respectively. The compressive strength under high pressure increased by 160.85% and 187.7%, respectively.
