| 1 | Effect of Gas Bubbling Filtration Treatment on Microporosity Variation in A356 Aluminium Alloy显示文摘In the present study,the contribution of the gas bubbling filtration(GBF) process to the microporosity variation,microstructural characteristics and tensile properties of A356 aluminium alloy was investigated.The test specimens were fabricated through gravity casting in terms of the process variables:the degassing time,the impeller rotation and the aperture size of gas inlet hole.The density measurement and scanning electron microscope fractography analyses were conducted to evaluate the variation of the volumetric porosity and fractographic porosity with the GBF process,respectively.The fractographic porosity of the specimens can be minimised under specific GBF conditions in terms of the buoyant velocity and the absorbing capacity of gas bubbles,the inclusion of oxide films,whereas the volumetric porosity can be wholly reduced on the lapse of degassing time.The ultimate tensile strength(UTS) and elongation at optimal conditions were improved to approximately 30 MPa and 1.5%compared with no GBF treatment.Even though an extension of the degassing time and/or excessive stirring action of the melt may induce the inclusion of bifilm oxides and the increase of fractographic porosity,the tensile properties of over-treated specimens were maintained to a level which is similar to those that did not undergo GBF treatment due to the grain refinement accompanying with the GBF process.In addition,the defect susceptibility of UTS and elongation to microporosity variation could be remarkably improved at an optimal GBF condition. | Choongdo Lee Taeil So Kwangseon Shin | 2016 | Acta Metallurgica Sinica(English Letters)2016，29，7： | 0 |
