Effect of reinforced fiber on morphology of Si phases in Al2O3/Al-Si alloy composite

Alumina/aluminum-silicon alloy composite is manufactured by squeeze casting. The effect of the reinforcement on the morphology of the silicon phase in aluminum-silicon alloy is studied. The results indicate that an alumina fiber can serve as propitious sites for the heterogeneous nucleation of the silicon phase, and the primary silicon in the composite can nucleate on the surface of the fiber. The fiber in the composite can trigger twin during the coupled growth of the aluminum-silicon eutectic and lead to modification of the eutectic silicon near the fiber.     

Wear behavior of AI-Si alloy matrix composites reinforced by γ-Al2O3 decomposed from AACH

The Al-Si alloy matrix composite reinforced by γ-Al2O3 particles was produced by adding NH4AlO（OH）HCO3（AACH） into molten Al-Si alloy at 850℃. During stirring γ-Al2O3 particles are formed by the decomposing reaction of AACH. It is found that the γ-Al2O3 particles distribute more uniformly in the matrix by adding AACH than by adding γ-Al2O3 directly. The wear tests show that the volume loss of the unreinforced Al-Si alloy matrix is about 3 times larger than that of the γ-Al2O3 reinforced composites and that of the composites fabricated by adding γ-Al2O3 is larger than that by adding AACH.

Microstructure of interaction interface between Al-Si, Zn-Al alloys and Al2O3p／6061Al composite

Interaction behaviors between Al-Si, Zn-Al alloys and Al2O3p/6061Al composite at different heating temperatures were investigated. It is found that Al2O3p/6061Al composite can be wetted well by AlSi-1, AlSi-4 and Zn-Al alloys and an interaction layer forms between the alloy and composite during interaction. Little Al-Si alloys remain on the surface when they fully wet the composite and Si element in Al-Si alloy diffuses into composite entirely and assembles in the composite near the interface of Al-Si alloy/composite to form a Si-rich zone. The mierostrueture in interaction layer with Si penetration is still dense. Much more residual Zn-Al alloy exists on the surface of composite when it wets the composite, and porosities appear at the interface of Zn-Al alloy/composite. The penetration of elements Zn, Cu of Zn-Al alloy into composite leads to the generation of shrinkage cavities in the interaction layer and makes the microstructure of Al2O3p/6061Al composite loose.     

Aging behavior of Al2O3 short fiber reinforced Al-Cu alloy composites

Al2O3 short fiber reinforced AI-Cu composites containing 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% Cu were fabricated by a squeeze casting technique. The as-cast Al2O3/Al-Cu composites were solution treated at 535 ℃ and then aged at 170, 190 and 210 ℃, respectively. Age hardening behavior of the Al2O3/Al-Cu composites was analyzed by measuring the hardness of the samples at different aging temperatures and aging time. Microstructures of the composites were observed by transmission electron microscope（TEM）. The results indicate that the hardness of the Al2O3/Al-Cu composites containing 7% Cu is much higher than that containing 1%-5% Cu because of the large amount of CuAl2 precipitant in the Al2O3/Al-Cu composite. With the increase of Cu content from 1% to 7%, the time needed for the appearance of peak hardness shortened, indicating that the addition of Cu can accelerate the kinetic of CuAl2 precipitation in the Al2O3/Al-Cu composites. The Al2O3/Al-Cu composite containing 7% Cu shows the highest increment of hardness by aging treatment. Therefore, in order to get a higher peak hardness, the Al2O3/Al-Cu composites need more Cu addition as compared with the un-reinforced Al-Cu alloys.

Distribution and segregation of solute in Al2O3 short fiber reinforced Al-5%Cu alloy containing La by squeeze casting

Al2O3 short fiber reinforced La-bearing Al-5%Cu alloy was fabricated by squeeze casting, and the solidified structure and the solute segregation during alloy solidification were studied. The results indicated that La has been enriched near the interface which is favorable to improve the wettability between the fiber and Al alloy, but the RE-rich phase was not formed at the interface. At the end of the solidification of the composites, the change of the solute in the surplus liquid phase results in the type of matrix alloy being changed because of the selective crystallization, and the segregation at the interface is finally formed. There is no special influence by La on the Cu segregation in the matrix alloy.     

Microstructures and properties of graphite and Al2O3 short fibers reinforced Mg-Al-Zn alloy hybrid composites

Graphite and Al2O3 short fibers reinforced Mg-Al-Zn alloy hybrid composites were fabricated by perform squeeze-infiltration route. The effects of the volume of graphite particles on the microstructure, mechanical properties and tr/bological behavior were investigated under the conditions of constant size of graphite particle and volume of Al2O3 short fiber. The results reveal that the uniform distribution of the reinforced graphite particles and Al2O3 short fiber can be obtained by this technique, and they have strong bonding with the metal matrix. Increasing graphite volume results in decrease in hardness, the ultimate tensile strength whereas the Al2O3 short fiber makes contribution to the increase in hardness of the composite. The composite exhibits good wear resistance, small wear mass loss and low coefficient of friction as compared with the metal matrix. The wear mechanisms transit from oxidation wear, abrasion wear into delamination wear as the applied load is increased, and a film of lubricant covering almost entire surface of specimen, is found to be formed, which separates the wear surfaces from metal to metal contact and thus improves the tribological properties.     

Friction and wear properties of mullite／ZrO2／Al2O3 composites

The friction and wear properties of ZrO2 and ALO3 cooperatively toughened mullite composites-mullite/ZrO2/Al2O3(MZA) were studied. The tribological tests were performed in a line-reciprocating tribometer using a GCr15 steel ball on a MZA disk under different dry reciprocating sliding conditions at room temperature. A wide range of normal loads and sliding speeds were chosen to investigate the relationship between the wear mechanisms of MZA and the testing conditions. The wear mechanism diagram of MZA is constructed, it contains two typical regions. It suggests that the wear mechanisms of MZA in each of the region change from one to another depending on the wear conditions. In the mild wear region, the wear rate of MZA is 10^-6 mm^3/m, and the wear mechanism of MZA is plastic deformation accompanied by a little micro-cracking. In the severe wear region, the wear rate of MZA is 10 5 mm^3/m and the dominant wear mechanism in this region is brittle fracture.

亚共晶Al-Si合金共晶团的形核与生长

采用光学显微镜、扫描电镜及电子背散射衍射技术研究亚共晶Al-Si合金共晶团的形核与生长。通过揭示共晶团和结晶位向的分析发现：在同一个共晶团中Si相和Al相都不是单晶体,而是由不同位向的小＂晶粒＂构成的。提出不能依据共晶团中Al相与周围初生枝晶Al相的位向关系来确定共晶的形核模式的建议。然而,初生枝晶铝相的演化显著影响随后的共晶形核与生长。涉及的杂质元素使共晶Si的形貌由粗大的片状转变成细小的纤维状的变质行为,可能与共晶的形核无关。
