| Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing has enabled the development of higher-temperature aluminum alloys for use in the 250 – 400 °C temperature range. A new Al-Ce-Ni-Mn-Zr alloy is designed and fabricated with laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing. The as-fabricated alloy exhibits excellent creep resistance in the 300 – 400 °C temperature range. Aging the alloy precipitates nanoscale L12-Al3Zr particles which strengthen the alloy at ambient temperature. However, the alloy exhibits similar creep strain rates in the as-fabricated and peak-aged conditions indicating an unexpected lack of strengthening from nanoscale Al3Zr precipitates at elevated temperatures (300 – 400 °C). Informed by microstructural characterization performed using scanning transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography, this presentation will discuss creep deformation mechanisms in the Al-Ce-Ni-Mn-Zr alloy to help explain lack of strengthening from Al3Zr precipitates. |
