Microstructure investigations of cast Zn-Al alloys

Krupińska B., Rdzawski Z., Krupiński M., Labisz K.

Journal of Achievements in Materials and Manufacturing Engineering

2013

Vol. 61, nr 1

12--19

Purpose: The goal of he presented investigations was to evaluate to possibility of application of popular modifiers for chosen types of zinc alloys. The special aim of this work is to determine the influence of alloy modification on the crystallisation kinetics and microstructure of the cast zinc alloy. This research work presents also the investigation results of derivative thermoanalysis performed using the UMSA device. The material used for investigation was the ZnAl8Cu1 alloy. Design/methodology/approach: For phase determination there were used electron microscope techniques like SAD diffraction investigations which were carried out on the 200 kV transmission electron microscope. The UMSA (Universal Metallurgical Simulator and Analyser) device allows it to determine the specific melting process, influence of the cooling rate on the crystallization of phases and eutectics of the investigated alloys. Cooling rate influences the microstructure and properties of the investigated zinc cast alloys. Findings: Change of the crystallization kinetics allows it to produce materials with improved properties, which are obtained by: microstructure refinement, reduction or elimination of segregation. Research limitations/implications: The material was examined metallographically and analysed qualitatively using light and scanning electron microscope as well as the area mapping and point-wise EDS microanalysis. The performed investigation are discussed for the reason of an possible improvement of thermal and structural properties of the alloy. Practical implications: The investigated material can find its use in the foundry industry; an improvement of component quality depends mainly on better control over the production parameters. Originality/value: Investigations concerning the development of optimal chemical composition and production method of zinc-aluminium alloys with selected rare earth metals with improved properties compared to elements made of alloys with appliance of traditional methods, will contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms influencing the improvement of functional properties of the new.
