Problems solved by technology

However, the plastic deformation instability and saw-tooth yield phenomenon of magnesium-lithium alloys during stretching have not been eliminated by the introduction of quasicrystals
In recent years, scholars from various countries have conducted a lot of research on the mechanical behavior of Mg-Li alloys. Their interests mainly focus on the nature and mechanism of plastic instability and "abnormal" mechanical behavior of alloys. Regarding how to eliminate the plastic instability in alloys, Haven't seen any reports yet

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of magnesium lithium alloys, and particularly relates to a heat treatment process for inhibiting the plastic instability of quasi-crystal reinforced magnesium lithium alloys. The process comprises the following steps: tightly wrapping a variable-form magnesium lithium alloy with an aluminum foil, carrying out solid solution treatment on the obtained object at a temperature of 330-470 DEG C, carrying out heat preservation for 4-8 hours, cooling the obtained product to room temperature by water quenching, ageing the obtained product for 12-24 hours at a temperature of 100-200 DEG C, and cooling the obtained product to room temperature by water quenching again. According to the invention, the plastic instability phenomenon of a quasi-crystal reinforced magnesium lithium alloy can be significantly inhibited, and the high yield strength and tensile strength of the alloy are retained, thereby solving the serrated yielding problem (occurring along with the tensile process) of plasticity of the magnesium lithium alloy.
