Microstructural and mechanical data from the literature of friction stir processed (FSPed) cast aluminum alloys were reanalyzed. Results indicated that friction stir processing (FSP) produced more homogeneous microstructures, with finer eutectic Si particles, grains, and intermetallics. However, a relationship between microstructural measures and process parameters could not be established. Regardless of the resultant microstructure, structural casting defects, i.e., pores and oxide films, were reduced in size or completely eliminated after FSP. Consequently, ductility and fatigue life were drastically improved by FSP. Quality index analysis showed that some FSPed specimens have a higher structural quality than aerospace and premium quality castings, and can be used to determine the intrinsic properties of cast aluminum alloys.

Abstract This chapter describes various aspects of the billet making process and how they affect the quality of aluminum extrusions. It begins with an overview of the direct-chill continuous casting technique and its advantages over other methods, particularly for hard aluminum alloys. It then discusses the influence of casting variables, including pouring temperature and cooling rate, and operating considerations such as the make-up of charge materials, fluxing and degassing procedures, and grain refining. The chapter also provides information on vertical and horizontal casting systems, billet homogenization, and the cause of casting defects, including cracking and splitting, segregation, porosity, and grain growth.

X-ray microanalysis and Convergent Beam Electron Diffraction (CBD) studies were conducted to characterize the second phase particles in two commercial aluminum alloys -- 7075 and 7475. The second phase particles studied were large (approximately 2-5μm) constituent phases and relatively fine ( ∼ 0.05-1μn) dispersoid particles, Figures 1A and B. Based on the crystal structure and chemical composition analyses, the constituent phases found in these alloys were identified to be Al7Cu2Fe, (Al,Cu)6(Fe,Cu), α-Al12Fe3Si, Mg2Si, amorphous silicon oxide and the modified 6Fe compounds, in decreasing order of abundance. The results of quantitative X-ray microanalysis of all the constituent phases are listed in Table I. The data show that, in almost all the phases, partial substitution of alloying elements occurred resulting in small deviations from the published stoichiometric compositions of the binary and ternary compounds.
