Abstract

For the first time, an expression for the apparent activation energy for superplastic deformation in Zn-22 pct Al doped with Fe impurities, which exhibits in an explicit fashion the Fe-concentration has been obtained. Such expression allows to describe all the experimental data previously reported. The range of Fe-concentration for which the Mohamed's model remains valid is established.

Keywords: Activation energy; superplasticity; threshold stress; segregation.

 

Resumen

Se presenta una expresión para la energía de activación aparente para la deformación superplástica en Zn-22 pct Al con impurezas de Fe, en la cual por primera vez aparece de manera explícita la concentración de Fe. Esta expresión permite describir todos los datos experimentales previamente reportados. Asimismo, se delimita el intervalo de concentraciones en que sigue siendo posible aplicar el modelo de Mohamed.

Palabras clave: Energía de activación; superplasticidad; esfuerzo umbral; segregación.

PACS: 62.20.Fe; 61.72.Hh; 61.72.Ss.
