The article is a case study of the steel milling ring casting of about 6 tonnes net weight. The casting has been cast in the steel foundry the authors have been cooperating with. The aim was to analyse the influence of the shape of the chills and the material which was used to make them on the casting crystallization process. To optimally design the chills the set of the computer simulation has been carried out with 3 chills’ shape versions and 3 material’s versions and the results have been compared with the technology being in use (no chills). The proposed chills were of different thermal conductivity from low to high. Their shapes were obviously dependant on the adjacent casting surface geometry but were the result of the attempt to optimise their effect with the minimum weight, too. The chills working efficiency was analysed jointly with the previously designed top feeders system. The following parameters have been chosen to compare their effectiveness and the crystallization process: time to complete solidification and so-called fed volume describing the casting feeding efficiency. The computer simulations have been carried out with use of MagmaSoft v. 5.2 software. Finally, the optimisation has led to 15% better steel yield thanks to 60% top feeders weight reduction and 40% shorter solidification time. The steel ring cast with use of such technology fulfil all quality criteria.

The paper concerns the processes connected with the formation of chromium white cast iron microstructure. The influence of titanium and strontium on the alloy crystallization has been described using TDA method and EDS analysis. Conducted experiments allowed the determination of the selected additions influence on the microstructure of examined alloys. TDA analysis enabled indication of the characteristic temperatures of thermal effects for samples with strontium and titanium and the comparison of results for the reference sample without additions. The results of TDA test also included the analysis of the temperature first derivative values, which presented interesting differences as well. The scanning microscopy observation clearly indicated the difference between the effect of strontium and titanium on the alloy microstructure. The EDS analysis helped to identify the chemical composition of the evolving phases and confirmed the strontium presence in the eutectic. Experimental results allowed to draw reliable conclusions about the effect of applied additions on the crystallization and microstructure of chromium cast iron.

Content available SiMo Ductile Iron Crystallization Process
EN
The article presents crystallization process of silicon molybdenum ductile cast iron (SiMo). The alloy with 5% silicon content and with variable amounts of Mo in a range of 0-1% was chosen for the research. The carbon content in the analysed alloys did not exceed 3,1%. The studies of crystallization process were based on thermal – derivative analysis (TDA). Chemical composition of all examined samples was analysed with the use of LECO spectrometer. Additionally, the carbon and the sulphur content was determined basing on carbon and sulphur LECO analyser. For metallographic examination the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDS analyser was used. Disclosed phases have been also tested with the use of X-ray diffraction. The results allowed the description of crystallization processes of silicon molybdenum ductile cast iron using thermal – derivative analysis (TDA). Conducted studies did not allow for the clear identification of all complex phases containing molybdenum, occurring at the grain boundaries. Therefore, the further stages of the research could include the use of a transmission electron microscope to specify the description of complex compounds present in the alloy.

Silicon cast iron with high chemical resistance, which is the biggest advantage of this material, did not have any competition for a long time. It was popular on the market of metal materials because of its low price. However, the production of this material requires special attention and precautions, which is a barrier for foundry. The article presents the results of research of high silicon cast iron crystallization based on thermal derivative analysis (which has identified characteristic temperatures of the investigated alloy crystallization process basis on the part of Fe–Si phase diagram and process analysis using calculations made in Thermo–Calc software) and metallographic analysis of the structure.

In the dissertation it has been shown, that so called “time-thermal treatment” (TTT) of the alloy in liquid state as overheating the metal with around 250°C above Tliq. and detailing it in temperature for 30 to 40 minutes has the influence on changing the crystallization parameters (Tliq., TEmin., TEmax., TE(Me), TSol.). It was ascertained, that overheating the AlSi17Cu5Mg alloy substantially above Tliq. results with microcrystalline structure. Evenly distributed in the eutectic warp primeval silicon crystals and supersaturated with alloying additives of base content (Cu, Mg, Fe) of α(Al) solution, ensures not only increase durability in ambient temperature, but also at elevated temperature (250°C), what due to it’s use in car industry is an advantage.

Content available Inoculation of Austenite Primary Grains in Cast Iron
EN
The modification is a widespread method of improving the strength properties of cast iron. The impact in terms of increasing amounts of eutectic grains has been thoroughly studied while the issue of the impact on the mechanical properties of primary austenite grains has not been studied in depth yet. The paper presents the study of both aspects. The methodology was to conduct the melting cast iron with flake graphite, then modifying the alloy by two sets of modifiers: the commercial modifier, and a mixture of iron powder with a commercial inoculant. The DAAS test was carried out to identify the primary austenite grains. The degree of supercooling was determined and the UTS test was performed as well. Additionally carried out the metallographic specimen allowing for counting grains. It can be concluded that the introduction of the iron powder significantly improved the number of austenite primary grains which resulted in an increase in tensile strength UTS.

Purpose: The paper mainly aims to present the influence of annealing temperature on structural changes and magnetic properties of selected Fe-based bulk metallic glasses with chemical composition of Fe43Co14Ni14B20Si5Nb4 (at.%). Design/methodology/approach: The investigated samples were cast in form of the rods with diameter of 1.5 mm by the pressure die casting method. The structure changes in function of annealing temperature were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods. The crystallization behaviour of the studied alloy was also examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Magnetic measurements of annealed samples included the initial magnetic permeability and the magnetic permeability relaxation measurements. Findings: The annealing process at temperature range from 373 to 773 K caused a structural relaxation of tested material, which caused the atomic rearrangements and changes of physical properties in relation to as-cast state. The annealing at higher temperatures (823-923 K) obviously caused a formation of a-Fe and iron borides crystalline phases. The increasing of annealing temperature significantly improved soft magnetic properties of examined alloy by increase the initial magnetic permeability and decrease the magnetic permeability relaxation. Practical implications: The investigation of the crystallization process of Fe-based metallic glasses is important for understanding the mechanisms of forming controlled microstructures of these materials with specific physical properties. Originality/value: A proper understanding of crystallization process of Fe-based bulk metallic glasses is still novel scientific problem.

Today’s industry aims at such situation, where number of defective products, so called defects shall approach to zero. Therefore, one introduces a various changes in technology of production, introduces improvements which would help in accomplishment of this objective. Another important factor is introduction of different type of testing, which shall help in assessment which factor has significant effect on quantity of rejects, and which one could be neglected. Existence of casting rejects is unavoidable; therefore a new ideas, technologies and innovations are necessary in the entire widely understood foundry branch, in order to minimize such adverse effect. Performance of tests aimed at unequivocal determination of an effect of vibrations during crystallization on mechanical properties and porosity of the AlSi13Cu2 alloy was the objective of the present work. To do this, there were produced 36 castings from AlSi13Cu2 alloy. All the castings underwent machining operations. Half of the casting was destined to strength tests, the other half served to determination of an effect of vibrations on porosity of the alloy. The specimens were divided into 12 groups, depending on amplitude of vibrations and tilt angle of metal mould during pouring operation.

Using thermal analyses TA and ATD, within a narrow range of the crystallisation period, i.e. until reaching an equilibrium temperature, the occurrence of exothermic effect was stated. Most probably, the said effect is due to a proeutectic crystallisation of \alfa phase or of \beta phase crystals. The said effect was observed to occur only in alloys after the process of modification with an addition of high-melting point elements. Complex inoculants of Al-CuP-Me (Me = Mo, Co, Cr, Nb, TiB, W) type cause hardening of silumins, due to the formation of new phases of the AlxMey type, which can act as substrates for the nucleation of \alfa dendrites and crystals of \beta phase. The experiments carried out on castings solidifying with different rates of heat transfer have proved that proeutectic crystallisation does not occur when free solidification conditions (microspheres) are provided. This fact can be related to the heat transfer rate.

Adding high-melting point elements (Mo, Nb, Ni, Ti, W) to complex silumins results in hardening of the latter ones, owing to the formation of new intermetallic phases of the AlxMey type, with refinement of dendrites in \alfa solution and crystals in \beta phase. The hardening is also due to the effect of various inoculants. An addition of the inoculant is expected to form substrates, the crystal lattice of which, or some (privileged) lattice planes and interatomic spaces should bear a strong resemblance to the crystal nucleus. To verify this statement, using binary phase equilibria systems, the coefficient of crystal lattice matching, being one of the measures of the crystallographic similarity, was calculated. A compatibility of this parameter (up to 20%) may decide about the structure compatibility between the substrate and crystal which, in turn, is responsible for the effectiveness of alloy modification. Investigations have proved that, given the temperature range of their formation, the density, the lattice type, and the lattice parameter, some intermetallic phases of the AlxMey type can act as substrates for the crystallisation of aluminium and silicon, and some of the silumin hardening phases.

W pracy omówiono wpływ cyrkonu na proces krystalizacji amorficznego stopu Qi60ZrxTi40-x (x=15, 20, 22, 25, 30). Stopy nagrzewano do temperatury 650 °C z prędkością 20 °C/min i wygrzewano w czasie 1 minuty. Następnie chłodzono je do temperatury pokojowej z prędkością 100 °C/min. Ustalono, że skład fazowy tych stopów po krystalizacji zmienia się i zależy od zawartości tytanu i cyrkonu. W stopie o zawartości Zr-15 % (x=15) występują fazy: heksagonalna Cu51ZrJ4 i te-tragonalna CuT^. Natomiast w pozostałych stopach (x=20,22,25, 30) obecne są tylko fazy o strukturze heksagonalnej Cu51Zr14 oraz Cu2TiZr. Przedstawiono również wyniki pomiarów twardości amorficznego stopu Cu60ZrxTi40-x. Stwierdzono, że amorficzny stop charakteryzuje się dużą twardością. Wprowadzenie dodatku Zr nie wywołuje znaczących zmian jej wartości.

The paper presents the influence of zirconium on the crystallization process of amorphous alloy Gi60ZrxTi40-x (x=15, 20, 22, 25, 30) at the temperature up to 650 °C. Amorphous alloys were heated up to 650 °C at the rate of 20 °C/min, kept 1 minute at this temperature and next cooled down to the room temperature at the rate of 100 °C/min. It was established that the phase composition of amorphous alloys after the crystallization process depends on the titanium and zirconium content For alloy with Zr=15 % the final developed microstructure consists of hexagonal Cu51Zr14 and tetragonal CuTi2 while for other compositions the hexagonal Cu51Zr14 and hexagonal CU2TiZr has been observed. The article presents also the results of mechanical properties of amorphous alloy Cu60ZrxTi40-x, obtained by hardness measurements. It was found that amorphous alloy characterises a large hardness however the addition of Zr has not shown significant differences in its value.

In the paper the solidification process in the micro-macro scale is analyzed. The mathematical model of heat transfer in the domain considered bases on the Mehl-Johnson-Avrami-Kolmogorov theory. The capacity of internal heat source resulting from the latent heat evolution is, among others, the function of nuclei density. This parameter is estimated using the methods of inverse problem solution. The additional information necessary in order to identify the unknown parameter results from the cooling curves at the selected points from casting domain. On the stage of numerical algorithm construction the least squares criterion containing the sensitivity coefficients is applied. The solution has been obtained using the boundary element method.

W artykule analizowano proces krzepnięcia w skali mikro-makro. Model matematyczny przepływu ciepła w obszarze bazuje na teorii Mehla-Johnsona-Avrami-Kołmogorowa. Wydajność wewnętrznych źródeł ciepła związana z wydzielaniem się ciepła krzepnięcia jest zależna między innymi od gęstości zarodków. Oszacowanie tego parametru uzyskano rozwiązując zadanie odwrotne, w którym wykorzystano dodatkową informację dotyczącą przebiegu krzywych stygnięcia w kilku punktach odlewu. Algorytm bazuje na kryterium najmniejszych kwadratów, w którym występują tzw. współczynniki wrażliwości.
