Preparation of Semi-solid Aluminum Alloy Slurry by Ultrasonic Vibration
Semi-solid aluminum alloy slurry by ultrasonic vibration was prepared
and processing parameters
formation mechanism of non-dendrite and microstructure of semi-solid aluminum alloy were investigated. The results indicate that the semi-solid aluminum alloy slurry with fine spheroidal structure can be successfully prepared by directly vibrating liquid aluminum alloy using Ti alloy vibrator with ultrasonic power of 1.2kW at 20kHz as a result of cavitation effects and acoustic streaming effects. Grain size of primary Si in the prepared semi-solid A390 alloy slurry can be refined to approximately 20μm without P modification. Fine spheroidal primary α-Al phase with 80μm in diameters can be observed in semi-solid ZL101 alloy slurry prepred by ultrasonic vibratior.
