The correlation between microstructure and fatigue crack initiation and growth was also studied. Increasing ageing time tended to increase the volume fraction of the secondary α-precipitates, β-grain size and partial spheroidization of primary α-phase. The maximum tensile strength (1565 MPa) and fatigue limit (750 MPa) were obtained for the samples aged at 500 °C for 0.5 h, while the minimum ones of 1515 MPa and 625 MPa, respectively, were reported for the samples aged at 500 °C for 4 h. The samples aged at 500 °C for 4 h showed a transgranular fracture mode. However, the samples aged at 500 °C for 0.5 h revealed a mixture fracture mode of transgranular and intergranular. The formed cracks on the outer surface of the fatigue samples were found to propagate through the β-grains connecting the primary α-particles existing at the β-grain boundaries.展开更多

It reveals the effect of preannealing on the process crystallization. The results show that preannealing can be used to change the crystallization behavior of the α-Fe phase in the Sm 5Fe 80Cu 1Si 5B 3C 2.5Zr 3.5 amorphous alloy, which is helpful for forming α-Fe phase grains; and it is not large for Sm 2Fe 17C x phase.展开更多
