چکیده

هدف از این تحقیق بررسی فصل مشترک کامپوزیت آلومینیم- مس حاصله از ریخته‌گری گریز از مرکز مذاب آلومینیم درون بوش جامد مسی است. در این تحقیق مقدار مشخصی مذاب آلومینیم خالص تجاری (100 گرم) درون بوش مسی پیش‌گرم شده تا دمای 150 درجه‌ی سانتی‌گراد و درحال چرخش با سرعت‌های دوران 700، 900، 1500 و 3000 دور بر دقیقه درون دستگاه ریخته‌گری گریز از مرکز عمودی ریخته‌گری شد. به منظور بررسی فصل مشترک واکنشی از میکروسکوپ نوری (OM) و میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی (SEM) مجهز به سیستم آنالیز EDS استفاده و نیز سنجش میکروسختی فازها انجام شد. افزایش سرعت چرخش با افزایش نیروی گریز از مرکز موجب افزایش آهنگ سردکنندگی شده و به این ترتیب شرایط را برای ظریف‌تر شدن ساختار و نازک‌تر شدن فصل مشترک واکنشی فراهم می‌آورد. نتایج آنالیز نقطه‌ای (EDS) نشان داد فازهای شکل گرفته به ترتیب از سمت مس شامل: لایه‌های پیوسته‌ی AlCu2، AlCu، Al2Cu، رسوبات Al2Cu پراکنده در ساختار یوتکتیک غیرعادی و نهایتا ساختار یوتکتیک غیرعادی α-Al/Al3Cu در مجاورت آلومینیم است.  نتایج تغییرات میکروسختی، از فازهای حاضر در فصل مشترک واکنشی، نیز گویای روند کاهشی سختی در دو سمت آلومینیم و  مس و بروز حداکثر سختی در ترکیبات بین فلزی بیشتر از 500 ویکرز، نزدیک به رینگ مس جامد، است.

چکیده [English]

The aim of this research is to investigate interface evolution during centrifugal casting of Al-Cu bimetal composite. In this work, 100 grams aluminum melt was cast into a 150°C preheated Cu cylindrical bush rotating at 700, 900, 1500, and 3000 rotation per minute (rpm) inserted in a vertical centrifugal casting (VCC) machine. Obtained samples were studied using optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with EDS system and also microhardness test on various available phases. Centrifugal force, due to the rotational speed, leads to increase in the cooling rate. Cooling rate increment not only causes thinning the interface but also with increasing nucleation sites leads to modify the resulted microstructure. EDS results showed that the achieved interface consisted of four discrete layers from the Cu side, including Cu2Al, AlCu, Al2Cu continuous layers, Al2Cu precipitates scattering in anomalous eutectic structures and finally α-Al/Al3Cu anomalous eutectic structure near the Al side. Micro hardness measurements showed that hardness of various presented phases decreases in both Al and Cu side but have a maximum pick, more than 500 Vickers, near to Cu bush as a result of intermetallic compound formation.
