Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This atlas provides an in-depth understanding of the metallurgy and fracture behavior of aluminum-silicon casting alloys, which are used in a wide variety of automotive, aerospace, and consumer product applications. The atlas includes over 300 high-definition microfractographs of fracture profiles and fracture surfaces, accompanied with detailed descriptions and analysis of the fracture features and their significance in the selection, processing, properties, and performance of the alloy. The microfractographs are described and classified according to criteria described in detail in the introductory chapters in the book. The factors determining the fracture mechanism in these alloys, on the basis of their physical and mechanical properties and fracture mechanics, are described and analyzed. The set of micrographs in this atlas include several unique features: classification according to the alloy and its processing history, detailed analysis of selected microregions of the fracture surface, reference of the fracture features to the phase constituents of the alloy, and high resolution and high microscopic magnification of the SEM images. This book will be of great value to anyone involved in the selection, processing, application, testing, or evaluation of aluminum-silicon castings. The target audience includes metallurgists, foundry personnel, failure analysts, purchasers of castings, researchers in physical and mechanical metallurgy, students, and educators.

Download or read book Performance of Aluminum Silicon Cast Alloys written by Adel Mohamed and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continuing quest for aluminum castings with enhanced mechanical properties for applications in the automotive industries has intensified the interest in Al Si alloys. However, the commercial application of these materials depends on the control of the structure of the shape and distribution of the eutectic silicon particles in the matrix, as also by the intermetallics phases that occur upon solidification. Thus, the book was designed with the aim of understanding how alloying elements, trace elements, and heat treatment influence changes in the microstructure and, consequently, the performance of hypoeutectic and near-eutectic Al-Si alloys. Microstructural examination was carried out using optical microscopy, image analysis, and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), wavelength dispersive spectroscopic (WDS) analysis facilities. By examining the mechanical properties of Al-Si alloys in conjunction with microstructure this book provides a valuable description of the development and behaviour of these materials

Download or read book Relationship Between Fluidity and Microstructure of Aluminum Silicon Alloy written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluidity of casting alloys is defined as the ability of molten metal to fill mold cavity completely. In this research, fluidity of aluminum alloy grade AC2B, AC4CH, AC4B, AC9A, ADC12, and ADC14 was measured using reducing vacuum technique. Other parameters such as tube materials (copper, stainless steel, and quartz), tube diameters (from 2 mm to 6 mm), applied suction pressure (from 1.33 to 95 kPa), and degree of superheat (from 0 to 120 K) are investigated. Fluidity length of every alloy and condition varies linearly with the square root of suction pressure. Alloys with high silicon content exhibit higher fluidity. Effective suction pressure, defined as applied suction pressure minus gravity and surface energy terms, varies linearly with fluidity. Theoretical analysis indicates that the surface energy can be calculated from the experiments by fitting with curves which pass through the origin. Minimum applied suction pressure required to suck the liquid was calculated and is in the range from 40 to 200 Pa depending on the type of alloys. Microstructure of solidified specimen in the tubes was observed and agrees with the fine channel flow mechanism proposed earlier by Flemings.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are only two kinds of qualitative methods for the estimation of aluminum alloy structures: (1) bar charts (degree of eutectic fineness, porosity content, etc.), and (2) atlases of microstructures, mainly for rejection (overheating, for example). In this paper, the development of quantitative methods for the characterization of hypoeutectic Al-Si-Cu as-cast alloy microstructures using panoramic image analysis is described. As-cast and solution-annealed Al-6Si-2Cu alloy microstructures were studied. Parameters for monitoring the quality of the structure of this alloy were proposed. New algorithms for automatic estimation of eutectic fineness and its volume fraction were developed. Correlations among different microstructural parameters were found and interpreted using thermodynamic simulation. The grade of porosity according to GOST 1583-93 versus pore volume fraction, calculated by ASTM E1245, was defined. Bar charts for estimation of the average length of eutectic silicon particles were proposed. The eutectic modification grade, according to the American Foundry Society chart for microstructure control of hypoeutectic alloys, versus both the length and the elongation of eutectic silicon particles was determined. The relationships between alloy hardness and tensile elongation versus the proposed microstructural parameters for Al-6Si-2Cu alloy were defined. These relationships describe various grades of hypoeutectic Al-Si-Cu alloys in both the as-cast and as-solution-annealed conditions.
