摘 要:The influence of zirconium on the resistance to high temperature softening of 6082 Al-Mg-Si alloys has been researched. The softening process of 6082 alloys with Zr and without Zr, isothermally conditioned at 250℃, has been investigated. The results show the inclusion of Zr inhibits the decrease of HB in hardness(HB) compared with the alloys without Zr. This is due to the Zr and Al forming coherent dispersoid-Al3Zr, and Al3Zr particles within an Al matrix, which effectively restricts grain boundary movement. A study is also carried out to investigate the changes in resistivity, which occurs during the ageing of alloys containing Zr, compared to those without Zr. It is found that in both cases there is an initial rapid rise in resistivity followed by a slower rise in resistivity as ageing proceeds. The value of resistivity is lower for6082 alloys with Zr compared with 6082 alloys without Zr; this is explained in terms of the role of Zr in the 6082 alloys.
