APPLICATION OF THE INSTRUMENTED NANOINDENTATION METHOD TO EVALUATING THE BEHAVIOR OF THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF A Fe-Ga ALLOY WITH INCREASING GALLIUM CONTENT

DOI: 10.17804/2410-9908.2018.6.090-099

Five Fe-Ga samples with gallium content ranging from 13.2 to 19.7 at. % are studied in this paper. X-ray phase analysis is carried out for the certification of the phase composition of the initial samples; in order to find differences in the chemical composition inside the grains and in the near-border areas, elementary analysis of individual structure sections is carried out. It is demonstrated that in this alloy there is a distinct brittle fracture. To study the mechanical properties and to reveal their behavior with increasing Ga content, it is proposed to use a nanoindentation system. An increase in microhardness and a decrease in the plastic work of indentation with increasing Ga content are shown.

ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ МЕТОДА ИНСТРУМЕНТАЛЬНОГО НАНОИНДЕНТИРОВАНИЯ ДЛЯ ОЦЕНКИ ИЗМЕНЕНИЯ МЕХАНИЧЕСКИХ СВОЙСТВ СПЛАВА FE-GA ПРИ УВЕЛИЧЕНИИ СОДЕРЖАНИЯ ГАЛЛИЯ

В работе исследованы 5 образцов сплава Fe-Ga с содержанием галлия от 13,2 до 19,7 ат. %. Для аттестации фазового состава образцов проведен рентгенофазовый анализ, а с целью установления различий по химическому составу в теле зерна и в приграничных областях проведен элементарный анализ отдельных участков структуры. Показано, что в данном сплаве имеет место ярко выраженный хрупкий излом. Для исследования механических свойств и установления характера их изменения при увеличении содержания Ga предложено использовать систему наноиндентирования. Показано увеличение микротвердости и уменьшение пластической работы индентирования по мере роста содержания галлия.
