Abstract

Abstract The present paper systematically investigated the influence of solution and artificial aging heat treatments on the microstructures and mechanical properties of SLM-produced AlSi10Mg alloy parts. Due to the high cooling rate of SLM, an ultrafine eutectic microstructure in the as-built samples is characterized by spherical nano-sized network eutectic Si embedded in the Al matrix, which gives rise to significantly better tensile properties and Vickers micro-hardness. The solubility of Si atom in the Al matrix of as-built SLM samples is calculated to be 8.89 at%. With the increase in the solution temperature, the solubility decreases rapidly. The artificial aging causes the further decrease of the solubility of Si atoms in the Al matrix. Upon solution heat treatment, Si atoms are rejected from the supersaturated Al matrix to form small Si particles. With increasing the solution temperature, the size of the Si particles increases, whereas their number decreases. After artificial aging, the Si particles are further coarsened. The variation in size of Si particles has a significant influence on the mechanical properties of the AlSi10Mg samples. The tensile strength decreases from 434.25±10.7 MPa for the as-built samples to 168.11±2.4 MPa, while the fracture strain remarkably increases from 5.3±0.22% to 23.7±0.84% when the as-built sample is solution-treated at 550 °C for 2 h. This study indicates that the microstructure and mechanical properties of SLM-processed AlSi10Mg alloy can be tailored by suitable solution and artificial aging heat treatments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
