| Abstract |
A comprehensive methodology to consolidate the hypereutectic Al-25Si-X alloy via spray forming was investigated in an attempt to judge the feasibility of this alloy for the application to wear resistant components. Billets having desired shape and microstructures were fabricated using forming parameters obtained from numerical calculations. Prior to tube extrusion of the spray formed billets, effects of various extrusion conditions, such as extrusion ratio, die temperature, and die configuration, on microstructures of the billet were studied. Based on results obtained from the preliminary extrusion tests, the formed billets were then hot extruded into a tubular shape. Various material properties of the extruded billet were measured and compared with the other candidate materials for anti-wear applications. |
