Pressure Dependences of Elastic Constants of AMg6 Aluminum–Magnesium Alloy and n-AMg6/С60 Nanocomposite Alloy

详细

The ultrasonic study results for dependence of the elastic wave velocities and second-order elasticity coefficients of the polycrystalline aluminum alloy AMg6 and its nanocomposite n-AMg6/C₆₀ on hydrostatic pressure up to 1.6 GPa have been described. The ultrasonic research has been carried out using a highpressure ultrasonic piezometer based on the piston-cylinder device. The pressure derivatives of the secondorder elastic constants of these materials established in the present study have been compared with the results of the third-order elastic constants measurements of the test alloys using the Thurston–Brugger method. Involving available literature data, we determined the relationships between the pressure derivatives of the second-order elastic constants of the AMg6 alloy and the Mg-content and nanostructuring.
