Two metal matrix composites, both consisting of a near-eutectic cast AlSi12CuMgNi alloy, one reinforced with 15%vol. Al2O3 short fibers and the other with 7%vol. Al2O3 short fibers + 15%vol. SiC particles were studied. Distribution, orientation, and volume fraction of the different phases was determined by means of synchrotron computed tomography. The load partitioning between phases was investigated by in-situ neutron diffraction compression tests. The internal damage of the eutectic Si phase and Al2O3 fibers after ex-situ compression tests was directly observed in CT reconstructed volumes. Significant debonding between Al-matrix and SiC particles was found. Those observations allowed rationalizing the load transfer among the constituent phases of two different composites. Finally, based on the Maxwell scheme, a micro-mechanical model was utilized for the composite with one and two ceramic reinforcements. The model rationalizes the experimental data, and predicts the evolution of principal stresses in each phase.
Eine Grundanforderung an Bauteile ist deren mechanische Integrität, die als Festigkeit (globale Bauteilbeanspruchung) bzw. Tragfestigkeit (lokale Beanspruchung) zu verstehen ist. Die Bauteilfestigkeit wird wesentlich durch das Materialgefüge bestimmt und kann über die Prüfung der Härte des Grundwerkstoffes lokal erfasst werden. Bei Bauteilverbindungen (z.B. Schweißnähte) ist zudem der Übergangsbereich zwischen den Fügeteilen von besonderem Interesse, bei Passungen oder Gleitlagern sind zudem geringe Rauheiten erforderlich, die oft durch mechanische Oberflächen-bearbeitung realisiert werden. Leichtbauweisen können sowohl über hochfeste Stahllegierungen bei geringem Materialeinsatz als auch über Aluminiumlegierungen realisiert werden. Für unterschied-liche Grundwerkstoffe (X2CrNiMo18-14-3, Co-Cr-W-Ni, AlSi10Mg, X5CrNi1810, ferritische Schweiß-nähte) werden an Quer- und Oberflächenschliffen Änderungen im Gefüge, morphologische Besonderheiten, Härteverläufe sowie Änderungen in den Rauheitskennwerten betrachtet, wie sie im Ergebnis mechanischer Oberflächenbearbeitung, bedingt durch den Herstellungsprozess, die Beanspruchung oder den Fügeprozess auftreten. Zur Validierung der Härtebestimmung wurde ein Laborvergleichsversuch an einer MPA-zertifizierten Härtevergleichsplatte und einer 100Cr6 Referenzprobe durchgeführt, den drei bzw. fünf der insgesamt fünf Teilnehmer bestanden.
Aluminum is an often-used building material in modern architecture. In recent years buildings from the 1950th and 1960th are increasingly subject of conservation works including the aluminum parts. Typical surface damages are signs of corrosion caused by weathering processes or scratches in the anodized layer due to extensive wear. To repair damaged aluminum surfaces, there are usually two options: smaller areas are repaired by using a touch-up pen, for larger damages it is necessary to remove the anodized layer completely. Both possibilities are disadvantageous for the objects; the touch-up pen often does not match the color together with an insufficient corrosion protection, while newly anodized layers often differ in color and gloss from the original surface.
For this reason, a research project was initiated to develop a mobile method to repair anodized aluminum parts. The first step focusses on the mobile anodization process by using the electrolyte with a gel substrate. Different cathodic materials are to be tested together with appropriate cooling material. The anodized area should be isolated to protect undamaged areas. Examinations of the produced layers are conducted by using Keyence microscope, eddy current testing and ESEM analysis. Further steps are to transform the coloring and sealing process for mobile application. Color could be applied by using a brush or by spray while the sealing process could be performed with water vapor. An heatable putty knife could be used, if heating up the area will be necessary. Once the application process is developed, the anodization will be tested on samples with artificial damages, fixed in horizontal and vertical positions. The stability of the anodized surface will be examined by accelerated ageing in a climate chamber and outdoor weathering.
The electrolyte (diluted sulfuric acid) was combined with a gel binder to enable a mobile application. Several thickening agents were tested concerning their conductivity and stability in acid systems. Anodization tests with different cathodic material and shapes were conducted. The temperature during anodization was controlled and adjusted if necessary. The anodized area was restricted by using either a lacquer, an adhesive or a removable silicon barrier. The fist results show the feasibility of the method on enclosed areas. The achieved thickness was measured by eddy current testing and the structure was controlled by ESEM analysis. The examinations show a connection between thickness and porosity of the anodized layers and the temperature during the application process.
Next steps are testing mobile coloring and sealing methods followed by mobile anodization on artificial damaged areas.
The influence of heat treatment and creep loading on the microstructure of an Al-Cu-Li alloy was investigated. Especially the formation of different precipitates (T1 and Theta') were characterized and the microstructural changes under different ageing conditions (with and without external strain) were investigated to determine the effect od stress on the ageing process.
Hausmüllverbrennungsasche soll aufgrund ihrer chemisch-mineralogischen Eigenschaften als Gesteinskörnung zur Herstellung von Normalbetonen eingesetzt werden. Durch Bestandteile, wie Chloride, metallisches Aluminium und Altglasfragmente, entstehen aber in kürzester Zeit beträchtliche Betonschäden. Durch zusätzliche mechanische, chemische oder thermische Aufbereitungsschritte können diese betonschädigenden Inhaltsstoffe minimiert werden. Dadurch lässt sich die Qualität der Asche soweit verbessern, dass sie gut zur Betonherstellung verwendbar ist.
