Abstract

Investigation on the hot deformability and workability of stir cast 6 wt.% steel particles reinforced aluminium 6063 matrix composites was undertaken in this study. Flow stress – strain curves generated from hot compression tests performed at strain rates of 0.01, 0.1, 1, and 10 s−1, and temperatures between 200–400°C, were used to study the flow behavior of the composite, while processing map developed from analyses of the deformation data, was used to establish the deformation mechanisms and processing safe zones for effective workability. Flow stress oscillations were observed to be prevalent at lower deformation temperatures and strain rates; largely due to the settling of reinforcement particles at grain boundary vicinities, rather than a homogeneous distribution. Also, the flow behaviour was largely strain rate insensitive. The dominant flow mechanism based on the flow stress patterns, processing map and microstructural validation was established to be dynamic recovery. Safe regions for processing based on Murty's and Gegel's criteria established the safe processing zones to be ~270–400°C at 0.01–1.0 s−1 and 380–400°C at 10 s−1. Deformation processing was unsafe at 200–260°C at 0.01–1.0 s−1 and between 200–380°C at 1.0–10 s−1.

Abstract

The effect of thermal treatment on the wear and corrosion behavior of three categories of Cu-Zn-Sn-Fe SMAs designated A, B, and C is studied. Wear properties were investigated using a tribometer whilst corrosion in 0.3 M H2SO4 and 3.5%NaCl media was studied using the potentiodynamic polarization method. The microstructure of the alloys mainly consists of FCC Cu-rich phase and Cu5Zn8 phase. The up-quenched A alloys show the highest hardness and lowest wear rate values of 72.1 HRB and 0.143 mm3/N/m respectively. Average COF was higher for the samples subjected to direct-quenching (0.35–0.12) than the up-quenched (0.16–0.12) and step-quenched (0.2–0.08) samples. Wear occurred by mixed mode mechanisms of abrasion and adhesion evident by grooves and wear particles on the surface. In 0.3 M H2SO4 medium, step-quenched alloys had corrosion rates in the range of 0.1022 to 1.1705 mm/yr, which is lower than the range of 0.1466 to 0.2855 mm/yr, and 0.1730 to 0.6027 mm/yr obtained for direct quenched and up-quenched samples respectively. In 3.5% NaCl solution, step-quenched alloys had the lowest corrosion rates 0.0251 mm/yr relative to samples subjected to up-quenching and direct quenching treatment. Generally, step-quenching treatment effectively improved the corrosion resistance of alloys in both media.

Abstract

Microstructural analysis and mechanical behaviour of aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) reinforced with palm kernel shell ash (PKSA) and silicon carbide (SiC) were studied. The AMCs containing 6, 8, 10 and 12 wt.% reinforcements, with weight ratios of 0:1, 1:3, 1:1, 3:1 and 1:0 (PKSA: SiC) were produced using stir casting method. % Porosity, hardness, tensile strength (UTS), ductility and fracture toughness were determined following standard procedures, while Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS) was used for structural characterization. The results show that the composites produced have improved hardness. The UTS improved with increase in PKSA attaining maximum value at reinforcement weight ratio 1:1 and then decreases, the 6 wt.% reinforcement being the only exception. The ductility of the composites was lower than the unreinforced aluminum alloy with the SiC single-reinforced having the lowest. Also Fracture toughness was observed to be less than the unreinforced aluminum alloy with the SiC single reinforced having the lowest value. The PSKA:SiC weight ratio 1:1 gave the best property combination with optimum properties in terms of UTS (175.48MPa), ductility (8.61) and fracture toughness [6.5MPa(m)1/2].
