ABSTRACT First-principles calculation was carried out to investigate the mechanism of Zr poisoning Al-5Ti-B grain refiners via Ti (or Zr)-adsorbed TiB2 models. The results show that the most energetically favourable sites for both adsorptions of Zr and Ti are bridge- and hollow-sites. The calculated results show that (i) adsorption energy of Ti is slightly more negative than that of Zr; (ii) The adsorption distance of Ti with the interface is shorter than that of Zr; (iii) the number of electric charges acquisition of adsorbed Ti is about twice larger than that of Zr; and (iv) the mixed metallic/covalent bonding on the Ti adsorbed interface is stronger than that on the Zr adsorbed interface. All results exhibit Ti atom is stronger than Zr in the adsorption ability. When both Zr and Ti atom co-exist, the adsorption of Zr on TiB2 weakens the adsorption of Ti. Co-adsorption of Ti and Zr exhibits an atomically roughening interface of TiB2. First-principles calculation of Ti and Zr adsorption on TiB2 well explains the mechanism of Zr poisoning Al-5Ti-B grain refiners in thermodynamic in view of the co-adsorption of Zr and Ti deteriorating the nucleating potency of TiB2 for α-Al.

ABSTRACT In the cast iron industry, mould sand quality and the most efficient recovery of used sand into the system are critical. For this purpose, the optimum values of the factors (humidity, active bentonite and coal dust) affecting the green strength, gas permeability and shear strength of the mould sand were determined in this study. The optimum mixture ratio, which makes the green strength, gas permeability and shear strength of the mould sand the best, was made by using the mixture design method. As a result of the studies, optimum casting sand composition; the percentage of moisture content, the percentage of coal dust, the percentage of active bentonite and the percentage of recycle sand were determined as 3.92%, 0.05%, 0.30% and 95.73%, respectively. The green compression strength(B1) 23.5 N/cm2, shear strength(B2) 7.7 N/cm2 and gas permeability (B3) 91 mmWS of the conventional cast sand prepared in this optimum composition were measured.

ABSTRACT Nowadays, Squeeze casting is considered as a convenient process for developing quality piston components. In this paper, casting methods such as squeeze casting and die casting techniques are used for compare the tensile behavior of Al-Si piston in the view of casted and heat-treated aspects. K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) algorithm is used for predicting the tensile fracture of the squeeze casted Al-Si alloy. The proposed method is implemented in the MATLAB platform, and the tensile fracture in casting is compared with the experimental and predicted value. The scanning electron microscope analyzes the microstructural property and fractures analysis of the material. The maximum ultimate tensile strength of the casted and heat-treated specimen is 184 MPa and 297 MPa. The results indicate the proposed approach is an efficient method than the implemented Artificial neural network for predicting the tensile fracture in Aluminium-Silicon alloy materials.

ABSTRACT In the present study, an attempt has been made to utilise spent alumina catalyst (SAC) and carbonised eggshell (CAES) in the fabrication of AA5052-based composite material. Cr was also added to further enhance the tensile strength, hardness and corrosion resistance of the material. Results showed that by adding 4.5% SAC, 4.5% CAES and 1.5% Cr in aluminium alloy, mechanical properties such as tensile strength, hardness and compressive strength enhanced significantly. Tensile strength, hardness and compressive strength increased by about 11.98%, 37.22% and 23.06%, respectively, concerning the base material. However, the toughness and ductility of composite have been reduced. Microstructure results of Al/4.5% SAC/4.5% CAES/1.5% Cr composite showed uniform. Corrosion weight loss and thermal expansion behaviour of composite have been also investigated to observe the SAC, CAES and Cr addition effect in the aluminium alloy.

ABSTRACT The composite components with complex-shape and containing different nanoparticle contents and sizes were successfully produced by the short-process thixoforming. Based on the developed constitutive model, numerical simulation of thixoforming for the composites with a high solid fraction was carried out, and the relevant experiments were performed. The influences of temperature and forming rate on strain-stress were analysed. Furthermore, the effects of temperature, moving rate of the die and holding time on the filling behaviour were discussed. Results of numerical simulation revealed that at high temperature and high forming rate, uniformly distributed stress-strain field and reduced maximum forming force could be obtained, which is advantageous for avoiding the non-uniform composition and incomplete filling caused by liquid-phase segregation; they were consistent with experimental results. After T6 heat treatment, the average yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the parts were significantly improved. Moreover, the fracture mechanism of the part was discussed.

ABSTRACT The effect of pouring temperature on microstructure and bonding properties of the Mg/aluminised steel bimetallic castings prepared by the solid–liquid compound casting process was investigated in this paper in order to improve the interface bonding of the Mg/aluminised steel bimetallic castings. The results show that the Mg/aluminised steel bimetallic castings produced with different pouring temperatures obtained a uniform interface layer that was mainly composed of the Fe2Al5, τ10-Al9Fe4Si3, FeAl3 and Al12Mg17 phases. When the pouring temperature was low, the cracks were formed between the Mg and the interface layer. With increasing pouring temperature, a compact interface bonding was achieved. The bonding properties of the Mg/aluminised steel bimetallic castings increased with increasing pouring temperature. An optimised bonding of the Mg/aluminised steel bimetallic castings was obtained with a pouring temperature of 780°C.

ABSTRACT Dendrite coherency or dendrite impingement is an important factor for determining solidification microstructure and casting defects of alloys. In this research, the effect of various cooling rates and Al-5Ti-1B grain refiner contents on the dendrite coherency point (DCP) characteristics of an Al-Si-Mg alloy designated as A357 has been studied. The results showed that both mentioned parameters have a significant influence on DCP of this alloy. Increasing the cooling rate from 0.15 to 1.0 °C/s and the grain refiner content from 0.0 to 3 wt. % increased the solid fraction in where dendrite coherency occurs. Moreover, enhancement of the cooling rate and grain refiner could increase the difference between the liquidus and coherency temperatures (TN–TDCP), about 27 and 26 °C, respectively. The dendrite coherency time decreased by increasing the cooling rate and increased by increasing the grain refiner content.

ABSTRACT The first-principle calculation was used to understand new insight of Ca element refining grain structure in commercial purity Mg. Negative adsorption energy, strong ionic bond and negative shift of partial density of states verify that Ca element is readily adsorbed on the surface of MgO. Combined with analysis of interfacial bonding between Mg2Ca and α-Mg, new insight of Mg2Ca layer formed via Ca adsorption efficiently nucleating α-Mg was proposed. Adsorption of other alkaline earth elements (Be, Sr or Ba) and the crystallographic feature of Be, Mg17Sr2 and Mg17Ba2 along with the experimental results further consolidate new insight of Ca element refining grain structure in commercial purity Mg.

ABSTRACT In the present study, the effect of Ce alloying element with different quantities (1 and 2 wt.%) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-5Sn-2Al alloy was investigated. Phase analyses and microstructural studies were carried out using XRD and SEM. It was observed that base alloy was composed of the α-Mg and Mg2Sn intermetallic phase, and after Ce addition Ce5Sn4 intermetallic phase was formed. Also, an increase was detected on the microhardness of the base alloy with increasing Ce addition. The test results showed that Ce addition has no notable effect on the tensile properties at room temperature but has a positive effect at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, creep properties of the Mg-5Sn-2Al alloy were obviously improved by adding Ce. The values of stress exponents and activation energy indicated that the dominant creep mechanisms of the alloys were identified dislocation climb controlled creep..

The values of stress exponents and activation energy indicated that the dominant creep mechanisms of the alloys were identified dislocation climb controlled creep..","PeriodicalId":13939,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cast Metals Research","volume":"33 1","pages":"278 - 285"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13640461.2020.1853929","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45181012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
