Abstract
This study investigates the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and Elinvar properties of a cold-rolled 40NiCrTiAl alloy. This study utilizes optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy backscattered electron imaging, secondary electron imaging, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis to observe the precipitation behavior and determine the composition within the material. The results show that the 40NiCrTiAl Elinvar alloy at aging temperatures of 600-700°C, spherical precipitates appear within the grains. At approximately 700°C and with an aging time of around 2 hours, the precipitate volume reaches a peak, and the Young’s modulus and Elastic modulus temperature coefficient also reach their respective peaks. These elastic performance indicators exhibit a strong linear relationship with the degree of precipitate formation. These findings are important for a deeper understanding of the application potential and performance optimization of this Elinvar alloy.
