FLOW BEHAVIOR OF MOLTEN METAL IN ALUMINUM LFC PROCESS
The effects of gating system and pattern geometry on the metal flow in the lost foam casting (LFC) process have been investigated using glass covered mold and video recording system. Unlike convectional casting process, the type of the gating system showed little effect on fillability in lost foam, but pattern thickness had large effect on mold filling. The mold filling behavior seems to be con...
متن کاملControlled Shrinkage of Expanded Glass Particles in Metal Syntactic Foams
Metal matrix syntactic foams have been fabricated via counter-gravity infiltration of a packed bed of recycled expanded glass particles (EG) with A356 aluminum alloy. Particle shrinkage was studied and has been utilized to increase the particles' strength and tailor the mechanical properties of the expanded glass/metal syntactic foam (EG-MSF). The crushing strength of particles could be doubled...
متن کاملPredicting Mechanical Properties of Metal Matrix Syntactic Foams Reinforced with Ceramic Spheres
A model is presented that predicts peak stress, minimum stress, average stress, densification strain, and composite density in order to determine the energy absorption per unit volume and energy absorption per unit mass of metal matrix syntactic foams reinforced with hollow ceramic spheres subjected to unconstrained compression testing. Comparison of predictions to experimental data for Al-A206...
متن کاملAmorphous metal foams
As recently demonstrated, amorphous metal foams are highly ductile in compression, and thus offer attractive compromises in mechanical and physical properties between crystalline metallic and ceramic foams. Challenges associated with fabrication of amorphous metal foams are critically assessed in the context of current and future processing methods, and conclusions are drawn regarding the prope...
متن کاملUltralight metal foams
Ultralight (<10 mg/cm3) cellular materials are desirable for thermal insulation; battery electrodes; catalyst supports; and acoustic, vibration, or shock energy damping. However, most of these ultralight materials, especially ultralight metal foams, are fabricated using either expensive materials or complicated procedures, which greatly limit their large-scale production and practical applicati...
