To achieve this goal, a pair of distinct 3D ring designs have been crafted: a robust signet ring and an intricate filigree ring. The purpose behind this decision is to determine whether the unique features of these two different designs have any noticeable effect on the result. Five different commercial resins have been utilized, with one of them explicitly formulated for casting purposes. Non-castable resins generate a unique, weathered appearance, due to the variability in ash residue within the mold after resin combustion, yielding unpredictable outcomes and diverse sample characteristics such as grainy texture, cracks, and a corroded effect. Examining the castable resin reveals its optimal performance for smaller elements like the filigree ring, showcasing remnants of supports or layers originating from the resin's printer curing process. On the contrary, larger resin-abundant objects like the signet ring result in notable flaws, attributed to gas accumulation within the mold, exerting internal pressure and causing mold rupture, leading to metal leakage.<h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":14231,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Metalcasting","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142182399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though, guidelines related to permeability measurement techniques have been established for twenty years, the permeability measurement device is not available in most investment casting foundries. This can lead to issues when establishing foundries to supply investment castings for high-value segments. A specific permeability measurement device has been developed by following guidelines published by a globally accepted standard body that further has been facilitated with the fundamentals of the Internet of Things. Different mold materials (using zirconium sand, aluminum silicate and fused silica) that are used in shell mold making for high-valued segments have been tested for establishing benchmark values of permeability. These values of permeability were observed in the range of 8 × 10-11–37 × 10-11 cm2 to achieve better quality shells as well as investment castings.","PeriodicalId":14231,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Metalcasting","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142182401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, EN AC 44100 and EN AC 44100 + 10 wt%Zn alloys were fabricated by permanent mold casting. The microstructural examinations were performed using standard metallographic techniques. The phases in microstructures were identified by energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses. The yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, and elongation to fracture of the alloys were determined by tensile testing after measuring their Brinell hardness. The tribological properties of the alloys were examined using a ball-on-disk type wear test apparatus. It was observed that the microstructure of the EN AC 44100 alloy consists of aluminum-rich α, primary silicon and β (Al–Fe–Si) phases together with the eutectic Si particles. The addition of zinc resulted in a significant increase in the hardness and the strength of EN AC 44100 alloy but a considerable decrease in its friction coefficient and wear volume by modifying the microstructure of it. The modification caused a reduction in the size of α grains and eutectic silicon particles.

A356, known for its significant application in aerospace, defense, and automotive industries, was subjected to various intensities of magnetic fields generated by Helmholtz coils during the investment casting process. Additionally, the alloy was modified with the addition of Al–5Ti–B master alloy, and samples were subjected to T6 heat treatment. The aim was to explore the combined effects of magnetic field, grain refiner, and heat treatment on the alloy’s microstructural evolution and mechanical properties. The characterizations of A356 alloy included tensile strength, Vickers hardness, metallography, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and differential scanning calorimetry. The results indicated that magnetic fields applied during the casting process significantly influence the grain refinement of α-Al and the spheroidization of the eutectic silicon, leading to improve its mechanical properties. The study also examined the effects of magnetic fields on the distribution and morphology of eutectic silicon and Mg2Si phases after T6 heat treatment.

In this study, a short-spacing multi-source ultrasonic vibration (MUV) technique, specifically quad-source ultrasonic vibration (QUV), was introduced to prepare SiCp/A356 composites with a high weight fraction of 15wt.% SiC particles. The characteristic of acoustic streaming and the dispersion of particles were systematically investigated through numerical simulations and physical experiments. The results reveal that QUV mitigates acoustic attenuation and expands the potential cavitation region (exceeding the cavitation threshold of 1.1 MPa) compared to single-source ultrasonic vibration (SUV). The synergistic effect of multiple ultrasonic waves not only elevates cavitation intensity but also enriches the structures of acoustic streaming, significantly reducing agglomeration and improving the dispersion of SiC particles within the Al matrix. Without ultrasonic treatment, only a small proportion of SiC particles are embedded in the Al matrix, with an SSiC/St ratio of merely 2.23%. However, as the number of ultrasonic sources increases, the agglomeration of SiC particles was relieved, and the resultant holes diminish. Remarkably, under QUV treatment, the holes in the composites virtually disappear, and the SSiC/St ratio increases to 9.82%. Additionally, the composites exhibit superior mechanical properties, with a tensile strength of 200 MPa and an elongation of 7.0%, which are 10.5% and 38.5% higher than those achieved using SUV, respectively.","PeriodicalId":14231,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Metalcasting","volume":"95 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141939888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
