Using a centrifugal casting method, along with deformation and aging, we produced a high-strength, low-anisotropy Al-Li plate. The electron probe microanalysis, transmission electron microscope, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction were used to clarify the evolution of strengthening phases. Experimental results showed that centrifugal-cast Al-Li plate consisted of intragrain δ′—(Al,Cu)3Li precipitate and interdendritic θ′—Al2Cu particles. After cold-rolling to a reduction ratio of 60% and annealing at 800 K for 90 min, both primary θ′ and δ′ were dissolved in solid solution. Aging at 438 K for 60 h led to the formation of two kinds of precipitates (needle-like T1—Al2CuLi and spherical δ′ in two sizes), which acted as the main strengthening phases. The average values of ultimate tensile strength and yield strength for the anneal-aged plate reached 496 MPa and 408 MPa, with a total elongation of 3.9%. The anneal-aged plate showed mechanical anisotropy of less than 5%. The tensile fracture morphology indicated a typical intergranular fracture mode.

TiAl-based alloy valves were manufactured by combining charges compressed /vacuum arc melting (VA)/ induction skull melting (ISM) procedure with permanent mold centrifugal casting method. Microstructures, compositions and mechanical properties of as-cast and hot isostatical pressed (HIPed) valves are detected. Results show that the permanent mold centrifugal casting process obviously refines the size of grain in TiAl alloy and the tensile strength of as-cast and HIPed valves are 550MPa and 580MPa at 20°C, 370MPa and 470MPa at 815°C, respectively. As-cast specimens show ~0% elongation at 20°C and 1~2% at 815°C, while HIPed ones show an elongation of 1~2% at room temperature and about 10% at 815°C. Furthermore, a 200-hour test was carried out with CA4GE-engine, which demonstrated the possibility of as-cast TiAl alloy valves for the substitution of present steel ones.

A rapid casting method for complex parts is presented. In this method, casting moulds with complex cavity are manufactured by self-created rapid prototyping approach which called Selected Laser Partitioning for Prototyping. After surface coating treatment for moulds, complex parts are obtained by centrifugal casting. As application cases, metal impeller was casted by this method. A self-developed five-axis coordinate measurement machine was used to process the surface measuring of impeller. The Dimension accuracy grade of impeller is CT-3 and the surface roughness is Ra 6.3µm through making comparisons directly between CAD model and point cloud data of impeller surface. The result shows that this rapid casting method which has the characters of simple technology and low production cost reaches the level of precision casting.

ABSTRACTThe fabricating conditions for the in-situ Al-Si base composite by the centrifugal casting method (CCM) have been examined. The crystallized Si particles with a lower density distribute in a gradient fashion as densely on the inner and thinly on the outer side of the wall of the cylindrical CCM-composite. Synthetically, the 25 mol% Si composite is recommended for the application like the engine liner.

<p class="Adressess">The preparation of a large number of materials trough the propagating exothermic reactions has been the objective of numerous investigation. Self-propagating reactions are typically associated with high temperatures and extremely steep thermal gradients and thus offer the opportunity to investigate the formation of intermediate and metastable phases. Such reactions are also of interest from a practical point of view since, as has been described in numerous literature accounts, they provide the opportunity to prepare materials with unique properties.</p><p class="Adressess">In this study the thermal effects of dissolution on the solid nickel in liquid aluminum and formation intermetallic phases was studied by simple experimental procedure. The thermal effects generated by exothermic solid-liquid metal interaction was judged by the rise of temperature in the system. Depending on experimental conditions, two different regimes of behavior were found: solid-liquid interaction leading to the considerable rise of the temperature in the system, and characterized by continuos decrease of the temperature in the system with time. The results of the experiments on the heat effects during the interaction of solid nickel with different particle size and liquid aluminum, with and without external mixing, are presented. It has been shown that, depending on experimental conditions, the evolved heat may influence the structure of a zone near to the solid-liquid interface. The experimental procedure correlates with the practical conditions of semi-industrial production of aluminum-nickel master alloys with relatively high percentage of nickel.</p>
