چکیده
This research investigated the effect of Fe on grain refinement recycled A 356 alloy refined by Al-5Ti-1B master using macrostructure examination and chemical composition analysis. Results showed that as recycling number increased, refining performance decreased, particularly in subsequence process. The decreased concentration titanium boron were responsible for degraded A356 alloy. Appropriate residual iron provided which can compensate It is suggested adding additional refiner an intentionally added 0.3 wt. % should be a practical alternative to maintain efficiency alloy.
 HIGHLIGHTS
 
 Significant concern process degradation refiner

EFFECTS OF Al-5TI-1B MASTER ALLOY AND HEAT TREATMENT ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND DRY SLIDING WEAR BEHAVIOR OF AN Al-12Zn-3Mg-2.5Cu ALLOY
In this study the effect of Al–5Ti–1B grain refiner on the structural characteristics and wear properties of Al–12Zn–3Mg–2.5Cu alloy was investigated. The optimum amount for Ti containing grain refiners was selected as 2 wt.%. T6 heat treatment, (i.e. heating at 460 °C for 1 h before water quenching to room temperature and then aging at 120 °C for 24 h) was applied for all specimens before wear...
متن کاملEffect of Al–5Ti–C Master Alloy on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Hypereutectic Al–20%Si Alloy
Al-5Ti-C master alloy was prepared and used to modify hypereutectic Al-20%Si alloy. The microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of hypereutectic Al-20%Si alloy with Al-5Ti-C master alloy additions (0, 0.4, 0.6, 1.0, 1.6 and 2.0 wt%) were investigated. The results show that, Al-5Ti-C master alloy (0.6 wt%, 10 min) can significantly refine both eutectic and primary Si of hypereutectic ...
متن کاملEFFECT OF COOLING RATE AND GRAIN REFINEMENT ON THE MICROSEGREGATION IN Al-4.8 wt.% Cu ALLOY
Microsegregation is one of the most important phenomena occurs during solidification. It usually results in formation of some unexpected second phases which generally affect the mechanical properties and specially reduce the workability of casting products. The aim of this research is to study the effect of cooling rate and grain refinement on the microsegregation in Al-4.8 wt.% Cu. For this p...
متن کاملInfluence of Zirconium on the Grain Refinement of Al 6063 alloy
The influence of zirconium on the grain refinement of Al 6063 alloy has been experimentally investigated. The microstructure and macrostructure of the refined alloy were investigated. The experimental results reveal that, the coarse dendrites in the microstructure of the alloy are effectively refined with the addition of zirconium to the melt prior to solidification. Grains of Al 6063 alloy can...

Control of microstructure parameters that affecting the Al-Ti-C master alloys grain refining efficiency is leading to improve the aluminum grain refinement. This study was an attempt to produce Al-Ti-C master alloys that provide these controlling factors with relying on the solute effect theory. The produced master alloys were examined by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispers...
