Protecting Melted Zinc-Aluminium based Foundry Alloys Against Hydrogen Pick-Up

Creep of Aluminium and Aluminium Alloys

This chapter constitutes an introduction to creep and to the creep response of Aluminium and its alloys. Its major goals are: to provide basic information on creep and its mechanisms to give a description of the more extensively used mathematical relations among creep variables (time, stress and temperature) to illustrate the creep response of pure Aluminium and of Al-Mg alloys to provide a syn...

Reproductive Epidemiology of Aluminium Foundry Workers

160 non-smoking male workers engaged in the production of aluminium alloys were studied for their reproductive performance. The reproductive parameters studied included number of pregnancies, stillbirths, abortions in their wives and number of neonatal deaths, premature births, congenital abnormalities in their offspring. For comparison, 150 controls belonging to the same age group and socio-ec...

Metallography of Aluminium alloys

This lecture aims at providing a survey of the metallographic techniques available for the examination of aluminium and its alloys. The information must be sufficient to be sure that the students and the users are able to choose the most suitable technique to solve their problems in the examination of samples. The lecture should contain a direct understanding of the main problems in the metallo...

Modelling Research of Hydrogen Desorption from Liquid Aluminium and Its Alloys

Barbotage is one of the most universal methods used for refining process of aluminium and its alloys. In this process tiny gas bubbles are generated and during their rising up to the surface the hydrogen is removed. In the same time some inclusions such as sodium, calcium and non-metallic particles, like oxides or borides can be also eliminated from the liquid metal due to flotation 1 . There a...
