Popis: The impact toughness of ZA27 alloy at different temperatures is investigated by pendulum impact testing. In addition, the morphology of impact fracture surface observed by SEM. The results indicate that impact energy of ZA27 alloy is reduced with the temperature rising when the temperature is lower than 100°C. At 100°C to 200°C, impact energy increase as the temperature rising. And when the temperature reaches to 250°C, impact energy suddenly descend. Impact energy is the highest and reaches to 72.768J at 20°C. At impact fracture surface, it is mostly tear ridges and dimples. The higher the impact energy is, the more obvious the characteristic of tear ridges is. Furthermore, dimples are small and distribute more uniformly. Lower the impact energy, the less distinct of tear ridges. Dimples are larger and deeper, their distribution are not uniform. Impact behavior of material could be evaluated by the width of impact curve. The wider the peak of impact curve, the higher the impact toughness. But impact toughness is worse while peak is narrow.
