Development of Ecological Al-Al_3Fe Functionnally Graded Material

Aluminum可以scraps include small amount of steel cans unavoidably.这是困难和成本remove the steel cans perfectly and to refine the scrap. How do we remanufacture the scrapefficiently for a structural and component material from the viewpoint of生态？This is the motivation of the present study. Considering the two phase diagram of aluminum-ironsystem,intermetallic compound of al_3 Fe is found first at aluminum rich side. Intermetallics are known ashard and brittle nature but, in general他们有很多不知道的属性，他们有不同的发现在参考，这是可能的to manufacture al - al_3 Fe functionally graded material (FGM) that takes advantage of the hardness andhigh melting point of al_3 Fe intermetallics？FGM is one of the new concept materials and has a graded composition to use each advantage and/ormake up each disadvantage. I have proposed the centrifugal方法as one of FGM manufacturingmethods, which utilizes the difference of centripetal force between molten metal and hard particles. If the aluminum scraps includingiron is applied to the centrifugal method，a kind of Eco-FGM of al - al_3 Fe可以制作。However，the centrifugal method in the laboratory of an ambient condition holds a difficulty to adopt to thehigh viscosity and low heat capacity alloy melt. The vacuum centrifugal casting system is, thus，planed and designed to overcome the shortage of the former system. A new system is satisfactorilyconstructed and al - al_3 Fe FGM of a thick-walled tube is manufactured from Al-10 mass pct Fe masteralloy. The morphology of al_3 Fe intermetallic in The aluminum matrix is examined. Profiles of al_3 Fegrain are changed from granular to needle shape depending one the position in the radial directionof the FGM tube. graded composition is also examined is varied from pure aluminum at insideof the tube to 40 vol pct al_3 Fe at outer plane of the tube. the corresponding graded Young'smodulus and thermal expansion coefficient of al - al_3 Fe FGM are in the range from 71 to 99.5 GPa andfrom 25.5 / 10^<-6> to 21.3 / 10^<-6>/K,respectively. Tensile tests are done using thin standardspecimen for which al_3 Fe grains are homogeneously distributed and the average value is about 28 volpct al_3 Fe. Tensile strength of 86 MPa at 0.44 pct Tensile strain and Young's modulus of 90 GPa are这是expected that the FGM must be a good wear resistant and heat resistant FGM. Less

Aluminum can scraps include small amount of steel cans unavoidably. It is difficult and costly to remove the steel cans perfectly and to refine the scrap. How do we remanufacture the scrap efficiently for a structural and component material from the viewpoint of ecology? This is the motivation of the present study. Considering the two phase diagram of aluminum-iron system, intermetallic compound of Al_3Fe is found first at aluminum rich side. Intermetallics are known as hard and brittle nature but, in general, they have a lot of unknown properties that are difficult to find out in references. Is it possible to manufacture Al-Al_3Fe functionally graded material (FGM) that takes advantage of the hardness and high melting point of Al_3Fe intermetallics? FGM is one of the new concept materials and has a graded composition to use each advantage and/or make up each disadvantage. I have proposed the centrifugal method as one of FGM manufacturing methods, which utilizes the difference of centr … More ipetal force between molten metal and hard particles.
