Compressive and wear behaviors of bulk nanostructured Al2024 alloy
AbstractCompressive and wear properties of bulk nanostructured Al2024 alloy prepared by mechanical milling and hot pressing methods were investigated. Al2024 powders were subjected to high-energy milling for 30h to produce nanostructured alloy. As-milled powders were compacted at 500°C under 250MPa in a uniaxial die. Consolidated sample had an average hardness and relative density values of 207.6HV and 98%, respectively. Uniaxial compression tests at strain rates in the range of 1.67×10−4–1.67×10−2s−1 were performed using an Instron-type machine. The wear behavior of nanostructured sample was investigated using a pin-on-disk technique under an applied load of 20N. The compression and wear experiments were also executed on samples of commercial coarse-grained Al2024-O (annealed) and Al2024-T6 (artificially-aged) alloys, for comparison. The structure of consolidated Al2024 was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The yield strength and compressive strength of nanostructured Al2024 reached a value of ∼698MPa and ∼712MPa at strain rate of 1.67×10−4s−1, respectively, which was considerably higher than those for coarse-grained Al2024-O and Al2024-T6 counterparts. Worn surfaces and the wear debris were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and XRD. Nanostructured Al2024 revealed a low friction coefficient of 0.3 and a wear rate of ∼12×10−3mg/m, which are significantly lower than those obtained for Al2024-O and Al2024-T6 alloys. This enhanced wear resistance was mainly caused by nanocrystalline structure with high hardness value. The dominating wear mechanism of nanostructured Al2024 appeared to be delamination mechanism.
