Abstract
The Zr65Al10Ni10Cu15 alloy sheet produced by squeeze copper-mold casting method exhibited excellent superplasticity (a maximum elongation of 1350%) at a relatively high strain rate (2×10–2s–1) at 696 K. This achievement was made despite the occurrence of crystallization in the middle of deformation. Time for the onset of strain hardening could be related to the T.T.T. diagram for crystallization. Effect of holding time on flow stress was examined. As the holding time was longer, strain hardening took place earlier and the resulted fracture strain was smaller. Bulging test showed that the Zr65Al10Ni10Cu15 alloy sheet could be deformed to near-net-shape by avoiding crystallization when fast heating rate and short holding time were applied.
