1.簡介
鋁質輕,強度高,是汽車和航空航天工業(yè)中的重要金屬。一般純鋁不符合行業(yè)標準,因此,它們與硅,銅,鎂等許多金屬合金化,以提高鋁的強度等性能,其中Al-Si-Cu-Mg合金系統(tǒng)就是其中之一。 Al-Si-Cu-Mg系由于具有優(yōu)異的鑄造性和機械性能,是工業(yè)中使用最多的合金族。應用從航空航天到汽車到家庭工業(yè)。所以這個合金系在其中一個合金C355.0是非常重要的。主要的合金成分是硅和銅,硅含量的增加會增加合金的硬度系統(tǒng)和增加銅強度(產量和最終)增加[1-10,13]。隨著載荷和滑動距離的增加,體積損失增加,但滑動距離的摩擦系數不變,而摩擦系數隨著滑動距離的增加而減小[11,12]。
在本文中,試圖比較一般在重力鑄造,砂鑄等行業(yè)中使用的不同鑄造技術的機械特性。另外,由于在汽車工業(yè)中摩擦磨損起著重要作用,滑動磨損行為也被分析。

3.方法
3.1鑄造技術
合金的制造是在三種鑄造技術中進行的,即重力鑄造,砂鑄和離心鑄造。在石墨坩堝中將合金熔化至800℃。對于重力鑄造,使用直徑12mm高度為25mm的模具。在直徑12mm,高度15mm的砂型鑄造模具中澆注熔融金屬,得到鑄件。在離心鑄造中,獲得外徑60mm和高度120mm的圓柱體。
3.2 微觀結構研究
通過使用220,400,600和1000級紙對表面進行蝕刻,并用Keller's溶液(即50%H 2 O中的0.5%HF)進一步拋光來制備用于顯微結構研究的表面。使用具有Clemex圖像分析儀的Nikon Microscope LV150觀察。
3.3拉伸測試
使用的張力計由直流伺服電機運行,并配有PC2000軟件。根據ASTM E8標準,從所獲得的鑄件拉伸樣品進行加工。尺寸為直徑6.25mm,標距25mm,總長50mm。
3.4耐磨測試
根據ASTM G99標準加工磨損試樣。干滑動磨損試驗在室溫下進行不同的負荷條件。直徑為10毫米,長度為30毫米。表面用600等級的紙進行蝕刻以符合調查中使用的銷盤裝置的標準。
3.5 硬度測試
使用負荷250kg-f,壓痕球直徑10mm的布氏硬度設備進行硬度測試30秒。在行進顯微鏡和BHN測量的表面上進行壓痕,通過測量的壓痕計算。
4.結果和討論
4.1微觀結構評估
4.1.1鑄造
在壓鑄中,硅顆粒在主相中均勻分布并且發(fā)現(xiàn)α-Al基體。圖1顯示了所獲得的鑄態(tài)的未蝕刻表面。由于冷卻速度較快且均勻,所以枝晶尺寸和枝晶臂間距較小,如圖2所示。
圖1 100X時壓鑄件的未腐蝕表面
圖2在100X下壓鑄的Keller蝕刻表面。
4.1.2砂模鑄造
圖3顯示了砂鑄技術的未蝕刻表面。從圖4的觀察,黑點是鑄造過程中存在的孔隙和雜質。從圖。從圖4可以看出,樹枝狀和樹枝狀間距很小。無花果的調查。圖4時發(fā)現(xiàn)α-Al基體的固溶體和β-Si的金屬間二次相。對于Cu濃度的變化,觀察到β-Si相為大片狀,針狀和纖維狀析出物。由于存在硅針,所以會出現(xiàn)切口,從而降低機械性能。

4.1.3離心鑄造
圖中顯示了離心鑄造的孔隙率。5.硅在主相中分布不均勻。與α-Al基體一起在第二相中形成大量的。由于存在硅針,所以會出現(xiàn)切口,從而降低機械性能。圖6中的黑點顯示散落的鎂。

4.2硬度測試
圖7硬度測試
通過測量在表面上制造的壓痕直徑來計算BHN。平均采取了三個縮進,并顯示圖。 圖7.離心鑄造具有高的硬度,因為與4.3節(jié)所示的具有良好延展性的硬度最低的壓鑄相比,發(fā)現(xiàn)它具有延性
4.3拉伸測試
圖8顯示了制造的鑄件強度的變化。最好的強度是在重力鑄造中獲得,在離心鑄造中最差。硅的均勻分布和較少的雜質和良好的鑄造工藝增加了強度,而孔隙度,離心鑄造中存在的氣孔強度最低。另一方面,在砂型鑄造多孔性方面,鑄造工藝不良,硅針的存在會造成缺口效應,強度適中。試樣的伸長率如圖2所示。 9.壓鑄工程極限強度比離心鑄造好57%,砂鑄件47%。

圖9%樣品的伸長率
4.4 磨損測試
無論在砂和離心鑄造中的負載如何,具體的磨損率保持恒定?;瑒泳嚯x為2500m,滑動速度為763rpm,10min,軌道直徑為100mm,磨損試驗正常載荷為10N,20N,30N。圖10顯示了鋁C355.0的比磨損率。從圖10可以看出,具體的磨損率隨著載荷的增加而降低。
圖10比磨損率
5.結論
從對鑄造技術的調查得出如下結論:
·顯微組織的評估表明,在鑄造過程中,細小的共晶硅分散在枝晶間區(qū)域,合金元素在鋁固溶體中細化析出。在砂和離心鑄造方法中發(fā)現(xiàn)了分散在樹突間區(qū)域的針。
?壓鑄件的最低硬度為74HB,砂型鑄件的最低硬度為53HB。離心鑄造69HB具有良好的硬度。
·工程應力為212MPa時,使用壓鑄法得到的Al C355.0的強度最好。
·與砂和離心鑄造相比,鑄造比具有良好的比磨損率。具體磨損率隨著負載的增加而減小。
總的來說,最好的鑄造方法是壓鑄,具有良好的強度和耐磨性。即使在大批量生產的較長時間內用于制造模具的初始成本高,壓鑄也是有利的。

silicon and copper,the increase in silicon content will increase the hardness of the alloy *Corresponding author.Tel.:+91-948-118-8859;E-mail address: 10988 Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 system and increase in copper upto strength(yield and ultimate)increased1-10,13.Also with the increase in load and sliding distance volume loss increased but friction co-efficient

72.4GPa Poissons Ratio 0.33 3.Methodology 3.1.Casting Techniques Fabrication of the alloy was carries out in three casting techniques namely gravity die casting,sand casting and centrifugal casting.The alloy was melted to 800C in a graphite crucible.For gravity die casting a die of diameter 12mm height of 25mm was used.In sand casting mold with diameter 12mm and height of 15mm was prepared and molten metal was poured to obtain casting.In centrifugal casting a cylinder was obtained of outside diameter 60mm and height 120mm.3.2.Microstructure Study The surface for microstructure study was prepared by etching a surface using 220,400,600,and 1000 grade papers and further polished by Kellers solution i.e.,0.5%of HF in 50ml of H2O.It was observed using Nikon Microscope LV150 with Clemex Image Analyser.Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 10989 3.3.Tensile Test The tensometer used was run by DC servo motors and accompanied with PC2000 software.From the obtained casting tensile specimen were machined according to ASTM E8 standards.The dimensions are gauge diameter 6.25mm and gauge length of 25mm with overall length 50mm.3.4.Wear Test Wear specimen were machined according to ASTM G99 standards.Dry sliding wear test was conducted different load conditions at room temperature.The diameter was of 10mm and length 30mm.The surface etched with 600 grade paper to fit standards of the pin-on-disc apparatus used in the investigation.3.5.Hardness Test Hardness test was conducted using Brinell Hardness Equipment with load 250kg-f with indentation ball diameter 10mm was applied for 30sec.The indentation was made on the surface which as measured by traveling microscope and BHN was calculated by the measured indentations.4.Results and Discussions 4.1.Microstructure Evaluation 4.1.1.Die Casting In die casting the silicon particles are uniform distributed among the primary phase and-Al matrix is found.Fig.1 shows the un-etched surface of the as-cast obtained.The size of dendrite size and inter-dendrite arm spacing is small because of faster and uniform cooling rate as shown in fig.2.Fig.1 Unetched surface of Die Casting at 100X.Fig.2 Kellers etched surface of Die Casting at 100X.4.1.2.Sand Casting The fig.3 shows the un-etched surface of the sand casting technique.From the observation of fig 4 the dark dots are the existence of the porosity and impurities during casting process.From fig.4 it is observed that the dendritic and inter-dendrite space is small.The investigation of fig.4 the solid solution of-Al matrix is found and an intermetallic secondary phase of-Si.The-Si phase is observed as large flakes,needles and fibrous precipitations 10990 Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 for the variation of Cu concentration.Since the Si needles exist there are chances of notching to occur which decreases the mechanical properties.Fig.3 Unetched surface of Sand Casting at 100X.Fig.4 Kellers etched surface of Sand Casting at 100X.4.1.3 Centrifugal Casting Porosity in centrifugal casting is shown in the fig.5.The silicon is unevenly distributed in the primary phase.A large amount of Al2Cu is formed in the secondary phase along with-Al matrix.Since the Si needles exist there are chances of notching to occur which decreases the mechanical properties.The dark spots in fig.6 shows scattered magnesium.Fig.5 Unetched surface of Centrifugal Casting at 100X.Fig.6 Kellers etched surface of Centrifugal Casting at 100X.Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 10991 4.2 Hardness Test Fig.7 Hardness Test BHN was calculated by measuring the indentation diameter which was made on the surface.An average was taken of three indentations and shown fig.7.Centrifugal casting had high hardness because it was found to be ductile in nature when compared to die casting which had least hardness which good ductile property as shown in section 4.3.4.3 Tensile Test Fig.8 shows the variation in the strength of castings fabricated.Best strength was obtained in gravity die casting and worst in centrifugal casting.Uniform distribution of silicon and less impurities and good casting techniques increased the strength,whereas,porosity,blowholes present in centrifugal casting had least strength.On the other hand,in sand casting porosity,bad casting technique and the presence of silicon needles which causes notching effect had moderate strength.The%elongation of the specimen is shown in fig.9.The engineering ultimate strength of die casting was better by 57%compared to centrifugal casting and by 47%to that of sand casting.Fig.8 Tensile Test 10992 Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 Fig.9%Elongation of the specimen 4.4.Wear Test Specific wear rate remains constant irrespective of load in sand and centrifugal casting.The sliding distance used is 2500m with sliding speed of 763rpm for 10min with track diameter of 100mm and wear test normal load was conducted for 10N,20N and 30N.Fig 10 shows the specific wear rate of aluminum C355.0.From fig.10 it can be observed that specific wear rate reduces for increases in load.Fig.10 Specific wear rate 5.Conclusion From the investigation on the casting techniques following conclusion was drawn:Microstructure evaluation showed that in die casting fine eutectic silicon dispersed in the inter-dendritic region and fine precipitation of alloy elements in Al solid solution.In sand and centrifugal casting method needles dispersed in the inter-dendritic region was found.Best hardness of 74HB was found in die casting and least 53HB in sand casting.Centrifugal casting had a good hardness with 69HB.Strength of Al C355.0 was best obtained using die casting method where engineering stress was found to be 212MPa.Santosh M V/Materials Today:Proceedings 4(2017)1098710993 10993 Die casting had good specific wear rate compared to sand and centrifugal casting.Also specific wear rate decreases with increases in load.Overall best casting method is die casting which provides good strength and wear properties.Even with high initial cost for the manufacture of the die on the longer run for mass production die casting is favorable.6.Acknowledgement We thank Dr.H.C.Nagaraj,Principal and Management of Nitte Meenakshi institute of Technology,Bangalore,India for motivating and
