In this study, we investigate the influence of Sc microalloying on the microstructure of the Al5083 alloy. Trace amounts of Sc addition drastically improve the mechanical properties of the Al5083 alloy from 216 MPa to 233 MPa. Macroscopically, the addition of Sc significantly reduces the grain size of Al by approximately 50%. Additionally, a microstructural investigation reveals that the Sc microalloying element induces fine Al3Sc nanoprecipitates in the Al matrix. The formation of Al3Sc nanoprecipitates results in a pinning effect on the dislocations, leading to accumulated dislocations. Compared to a Sc-free Al5083 alloy specimen, the number density of dislocations in the Sc-added Al5083 alloy significantly increases after hot rolling, enhancing the tensile properties. We reveal that the improved mechanical properties of Al5083 with Sc microalloying originate from the grain refinement and the formation of fine Al3Sc nanoprecipitates. |
