Abstract
ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to improve the tribological behaviour of aluminium alloys by using grain refiner and modifier. The effects of Al5Ti1B grain refiner and Al10Sr modifier additives on friction and wear properties on A380, A357 alloys produced by pouring sand andpermanent mould casting were investigated. Abrasion tests were carried out under dry conditions against St1040 steel disc using a pin-disk system with 20 N load and 1.0 m/s sliding speed. It was determined that grain refiner and modifier additives decrease the friction coefficient and increase the wear resistance. It was determined that the samples produced by permanent mould casting method decreased the friction resistance by 9% and the abrasion resistance increased by 40% compared to the samples produced in sand mould. The lowest wear rate was obtained in A380 alloy with TiB and Sr added with a value of 4.87 × 10–11 m2/N.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Cast Metals Research is devoted to the dissemination of peer reviewed information on the science and engineering of cast metals, solidification and casting processes. Assured production of high integrity castings requires an integrated approach that optimises casting, mould and gating design; mould materials and binders; alloy composition and microstructure; metal melting, modification and handling; dimensional control; and finishing and post-treatment of the casting. The Journal reports advances in both the fundamental science and materials and production engineering contributing to the successful manufacture of fit for purpose castings.
