In this paper, the effect of magnetostatic field on the microstructure and microsegregation of 7075 aluminum alloy strip by twin-roll casting is researched , and the result shows that when no electromagnetic field is applied during the process of roll-casting , the microstructure of 7075 strip is most composed of coarse columnar and dendritic crystal , the direction of grains is equal to roll-casting direction. When the magnetostatic field with 0.13T intensity is applied during the twin-roll casting, the microstructural of strip becomes uniform ,refined and equiaxed at the central zone of strip, and the dendritic crystal at the surficial is disordered and refined significantly.

The main purpose of this present study was to investigate the different processing conditions on the microstructure, segregation behavior of alloying elements, and mechanical properties of Al−Mg−Si alloy twin-roll cast slab prepared using a novel twin-roll casting technology. The simulation of temperature field, distribution of alloying elements, tensile properties, hardness, and conductivity were examined by a Leica optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersion spectroscopy, electron probe microanalysis, and tensile tests. The results indicated that when the traditional twin-roll casting method was used to produce aluminum alloy strip, there are obvious centerline segregation defects due to the deep crystallization front depth and symmetrical solidification characteristics. When the forced-cooling technology was applied in the twin-roll casting process, by virtue of the changing of crystallization front depth and crystallization front shape, the segregation defects are obviously suppressed. Suggesting that this method can significantly improve the uniformity of alloying elements in the thickness direction of the twin-roll cast slab, ultimately improve the mechanical properties of AA6022 aluminum alloy.

In this study, a twin-roll casting sheet of 6061 aluminum alloy was cooled using furnace, asbestos, air, wind and water. The effect of cooling rate on the microstructure and properties of twin-roll casting 6061 aluminum alloy sheet were studied. Optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, microhardness tester and universal tensile machine were used to observe the microstructure and properties of twin-roll casting sheet of 6061 aluminum alloy. The results show that the higher the cooling rate, the smaller the grain size of the alloy and the smaller the number of precipitated phases in the matrix. Uniform grain size of the alloy could be obtained at a stable cooling rate. The hardness, tensile strength and elongation of the twin-roll casting sheet increased with cooling rate. Under wind cooling condition, the twin-roll casting sheet demonstrated excellent comprehensive performance, i.e., 88 MPa of yield strength, 178 MPa of tensile strength and 15% of elongation, respectively. A quantitative Hall–Petch relation was established to predict the yield strength of 6061 twin-roll casting sheets with different grain sizes and cooling rate.
