INFLUENCE CuAl10Fe3Mn2 ADDITI VE ON ULTIMATE TENSILE STRENGTH AND WEAR OF Al-9%SiMg ALLOY

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2018, Vol 279, Issue 3

Abstract

One of the most common castings applied in industrial production is aluminium-silicon alloy (ca. 9% Si with Mg). The Al-SiMg alloys have high corrosion resistance, high strength to weight ratio with modifications, very good castability, a low thermal-expansion coefficient, and relatively good wear resistance. These properties make it possible to widely apply the foundry Al-9% SiMg alloy to number of aviation, automotive, and others materials working on tribological applications. Similar to silumins, the aluminium bronze CuAl10Fe3Mn2 is characterized by good mechanical properties and wear and corrosion resistance. This paper presents the research on the treatment of Al-9%SiMg alloy with a composition of CuAl10Fe3Mn2 in different mass ranges. The experiments were conducted by a factor plan 23 for three independent variables. The main additions were strontium, Al-9%SiMg, aluminium bronze, as well as pure or melted with raw silumin. The effect of the tested additions on the microstructure and tensile strength of the Al-9%SiMg alloy was presented in figures. All analysed parameters (mechanical and tribological) of the hypo-eutectic Al-9%SiMg alloy with tested bronze additions are improved. Based on the analysis of the study results, it was found that the microstructure and tensile strength of the tested alloy are determined through the contents introduced of CuAl10Fe3Mn2 to the alloy.<br/><br/>
