Fe Addition

Roll casting of the model alloy of recycled AA5182 aluminum alloy was investigated. Fe up to 0.6% was added to the AA5182 to make the model alloys of recycled AA5182. Increase of 0.6% of Fe means that the recycle was three times operated. A vertical type high speed twin roll caster was used. Some devices were operated on the twin roll caster to increase the cooling rate in order to make impurity fine. The roll speed could be increased up to 80m/min. The roll-castability did not become worse by the addition of the Fe. The LDR (limiting Drawing Ratio) was 1.9 when the Fe addition was 0.6. The deterioration of the mechanical properties by the addition of impurity Fe was very small.

An inline hot rolling was operated on 5182 aluminum alloy strip cast using a vertical type high speed caster (VHSTRC) at the speed of 60 m/min. A porosity existing at center line of the thickness and a ripple mark on the surface, these are typical defects of the strip cast by the VHSTRC, could be improved by the inline rolling. The rolling speed was as same as the roll-casting-speed of 60m/min. The temperature of the strip, when the inline rolling was operated, was 450oC. The reduction of the strip of the inline rolling was 35%.

The casting of a 600 mm-wide 5182 aluminum alloy strip was attempted using a single-roll caster equipped with a scraper. This caster could cast a strip at speeds ranging from 10 to 40 m/min. These casting speeds are much higher than that of a conventional twin-roll caster. The scraper load suitable for scribing the wide strip was investigated. The strip could be scribed at full width by the scraper. The mechanical properties of the strip were investigated using a tension test and a cup test. The tensile stress was 320 MPa and the elongation was 30%. When deep drawing was conducted, no striped pattern, which occurs via segregation, appeared when both surfaces were facing outside.

The disadvantages of the conventional twin-roll caster for aluminum alloy are low casting speeds and limited choices of alloys that are castable by this processing. It is known that strip casting of aluminum alloy 5182 is very difficult because of their wider freezing zones. The vertical-type high-speed twin-roll caster used in the present study was devised to overcome these disadvantages. Features of the high speed twin roll casters are as below. Mild steel rolls were used in order to increase the casting speed and to be made at a lower equipment cost. Roll coating is produced in casting of Al-Mg alloy. Therefore lubricant, that resists heat transfer, was not used in the present study. Heat transfer between melt and the roll was improved by hydrostatic pressure of the melt. Low superheat casting was carried out in order to improve microstructure of the strip. In the present study, effectiveness of a high-speed twin roll caster for recycling aluminum alloy was investigated. The effects of the high-speed twin roll caster on alleviating the deterioration of mechanical properties by impurities were investigated. Properties of the cast strip were investigated by metalography, a tension test, and a deep drawing test.

Two kinds of roll casters, which were suitable for high speed roll casting, were devised. One was a vertical type twin roll caster, and the other was an unequal diameter twin roll caster. The semisolid roll casting using a cooling slope was adopted to these roll casters. The solid fraction was smaller than 5%. 3 mm thickness of 6111 strip was cast at 60 m/min by the vertical type twin roll caster, and 5 mm thickness of 6111 strip was cast at 30 m/min by the unequal diameter twin roll caster. The microstructure of the as-cast strip was equiaxed and spherical, not columnar. The mechanical properties of the strip rolled from roll-cast strip were almost as same as that of the strip made from cast ingot.
