The thermal analysis and derivative bronzes cast to plaster moulds
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
It plaster moulds gets casted the alloys of following metals: Al, Cu, Ag, Au in precise and artistic founding. The investigation of the crys-tallization of bronzes in hot plaster moulds the method of the thermal analysis and derivative (TDA) was not realized out so far. Probe TDAg and tripod enabling the execution of measurements on inductive casting machine INDUTHERM-VC 500D were designed for this technology especially. It was confirmed that one the method TDA can identify the crystallization process of the bronze in hot plaster moulds. The investigations of the superficial distribution of the concentration of elements in the microstructure of the studied grades of the bronze on X-ray microanalizer were conducted. It results that they be subject to in bronze CuSn10-C (B10) and the CuSn5Zn5Pb5-C (B555) of strong microsegregation from conducted investigations: Pb, Sn and Sb. The single separates of intermetallic phase κ was identified in the bronze B10 rich first of all in Zn, Sn, Sb and Fe, and two intermetallic phase, one rich were identified in the bronze B555 first of all in Zn, Sb, (Nor, Fe) and second rich in Sn, Sb, (Nor, Fe). The most homogeneous microstructure from the bronze CuAl10Fe5Ni5-C (BA1055) is characterizes among the studied grades of the bronze in the cast state.
