Abstract:

Based on the theory of processing map proposed by PRASAD, the power dissipation maps, the hot deformation instability maps and the hot processing maps of 1235 Al alloys treated by different methods of purification were built, and the effects of purification and deformation conditions at elevated-temperature on hot workability of 1235 Al alloy were analyzed. At the same time the optimum processing region and flow instability region were determined. The results show that the hot processing map of 1235 Al alloy has two instability zones in the temperature range of 300-500°C and in the strain rate ranging from 0.01s-1 to 10.0s-1 up to a true strain of 0.7, that is, one zone lying in the range of lower temperature and higher strain rate, the other zone in the range of higher temperature and mid strain rate. The purification effect has significant impact on hot workability of the alloy. It is found that the optimum processing region of 1235 Al alloy treated by high-efficient purification treatment is present in the range of higher temperature and lower strain rate zone, and its power dissipation efficiency is about 46%; while the optimum processing region of 1235 Al alloys treated by conventional refining treatment is present in the range of mid-temperature and lower strain rate zone or in the range of higher temperature and strain rate zone, and its power dissipation efficiency is about 23-29%. The results of observation of the deformation microstructure of 1235 Al alloy are in accordance with that of the hot processing maps of the alloy, thus showing that the calculation results of the hot processing maps are reliable.
