In this paper, 15% SiCp/2009A1 composites were subjected to multi-pass hot spinning experiments. The principle of the microstructure and properties of the materials was studied with the increase of thinning rate. The microstructures, interfaces, precipitates and their properties of the tube, which were in the states of spinning, spinning and solution heat treatment were analyzed and discussed.The research shows that it is possible to prepare spinning pipe with good shape and smooth surface by taking use of the spinning process of this paper. During the power spinning process, the force of the rotary wheel to the pipe causes the billet to produce two-way deformation, and the axial and tangential grains are obviously elongated and the flow line is formed.There are mainly Al, SiC, CuAl2and Mg2Si phases in the tube, and the spinning deformation does not change the phase composition of the composites, but the SiC distribution can be more uniform and the oxide film on the surface of the aluminum particles is broken, as a result that the oxygen element will cluster at the interface.The solution heat treatment after spinning can greatly improve the yield strength and tensile strength of SiC/Al composites with a slight decrease in plasticity. The spinning process used in this paper can not only form a composite pipe with a smaller diameter and thinner wall thickness, but it can still be applied when the diameter of the pipe blank becomes larger and the wall thickness becomes thicker.Through the research on spinning process and microstructure, the feasibility of spinning process for preparing aluminum matrix composites pipes was explored, which provided technical and theoretical support for the preparation and processing of Particulate reinforced aluminum matrix composites (PRAMCs) pipes for aviation and aerospace applications. |
