“…This spherical particle was Al 3 Zr particle with an Ll 2 cubic crystal structure, which was coherent with the Al matrix, and it had been confirmed by Keith E. Knipling and M. Schöbel who studied the formation of Al 3 Zr precipitates in aluminum alloys [30,31]. As is well known, in the previous studies [3,32], these Al 3 Zr particles can pin subgrain boundaries and dislocations, consequently, the Al 3 Zr particles promote the retardation of DRV and resist the deformation structure from recrystallization. 13 …”

“…And trace zirconium addition can improve the recrystallization temperature of aluminum alloy; therefore, some deformation structure can be partly retained after the hot deformation; and the deformation structure which affect the characteristics of materials such as ductility, strength and corrosion resistance is influenced by deformation conditions directly [3]. Therefore, it is important to investigate the interactive effect between microstructure evolution and processing conditions at elevated temperature.…”

“…In actual production, diverse microstructural evolution mechanisms may take place, such as dynamic recrystallization (DRX), static recrystallization (SRX), metadynamic recrystallization (MDRX), and recovery, which determine the final microstructure and mechanical properties of the steel simultaneously. [ 18–21 ] During the inter‐step time, whether the SRX, MDRX, or a combination of them can take place depending on the amount of previous‐step strain accumulation. Both SRX and MDRX occur at a strain between the critical strain and the steady strain.…”
The thermal deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of medium Mn steel (0.15C–7Mn) are investigated by the two‐hit compression tests. The results reveal that different static softening dynamics are the functions of deformation temperature, interval time, and strain rate. The short static softening plateaus are exhibited in the static softening curves during post‐deformation holding at 950 °C and 0.1, 1 s−1. Based on the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis, the progresses of static recovery (SRV) and static recrystallization (SRX) are enhanced by the increment of deformation temperature. The frequencies of medium angle boundaries (MAGBs) and high angle boundaries (HAGBs) increase gradually with an increased interval time at 1000 °C and 0.1 s−1, which suggests that both SRV and SRX contribute to static softening, but the predominant softening mechanism is SRV. In addition, the influence of temperature, interval time, and strain rate on the distribution and average magnitude of grain size is investigated. The deformation temperature and strain rate have a significant influence not only on average grain dimension, but also on the distribution of grain size. Interval time has great influence on average grain size, but has slight effect on distribution of grain size.
“…In aluminum alloys, zirconium (Zr) has been proved to be an effective element in increasing the recrystallization temperature and hardenability [1]. Usually, Zr is added in the form of Al-Zr master alloys.…”
A reaction interface between the aluminum and K 2 ZrF 6 during molten salt reaction process was frozen by quenching the mold in water, and the interface structure was analyzed to determine the formation process of Al 3 Zr. Results show that a clear conical interface existed between the K 2 ZrF 6 and aluminum. A zirconium accumulation layer with the thickness of about 2-3 lm was formed at the aluminum side of the interface. Many initially formed Al 3 Zr particles (with the size of 0.4-16 lm) distributed in this layer, most of which located at the interface. The morphology of Al 3 Zr particles is closely related with their size. For the size of 0.4-1 lm, the Al 3 Zr appeared as globular and ellipsoid shapes. When it grew to the size of 1-2 and 2-16 lm, it exhibited the rule cube shape, and rule cuboids shape, respectively.
