摘要

The effects of deformation reduction and annealing temperature on microstructural characteristics and mechanical properties of Al-27%Si alloy strips prepared by gas atomization and hot rolling were investigated. The strips exhibit fine and uniform microstructure, with Si particles displaying a narrow size distribution and an average particle size of only 3.61 ± 1.5 μm. Neither deformation reduction nor annealing temperature significantly affects the size, distribution, and morphology of Si particles. However, fractured Si particles are observed when the deformation reduction reaches 80%. The tensile strength reaches a maximum value of 246.3 MPa at a deformation reduction of 80%. The grain size of the Al matrix gradually increases with increasing annealing temperature; after annealing at 450 °C, the average grain size reaches 12.2 μm, representing a 45.2% increase compared to that after annealing at 400 °C. Dislocation density decreases significantly with increasing annealing temperature, and a transition zone is observed at the interface between Al and Si. The strip annealed at 350 °C for 1 h exhibit excellent performance, achieving a tensile strength of 151.1 MPa and elongation of 2.5%.
