Investigation on interface of Al/Cu couples in compound casting
Abstract
The joining of Al and Cu commercially pure metals using the compound casting process has been investigated where an aluminium melt is cast onto a solid cylindrical copper insert. The microstructure of the interface between copper core and surrounding aluminium was characterised by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Vickers hardness tests. Results showed that five separate reaction layers are formed in the reaction interface of core and surrounding Al. These layers included Cu9Al4, AlCu and Al2Cu intermetallic compounds; a eutectic layer; and a eutectic α-Al dendritic structure layer. Owing to the presence of hard and brittle intermetallic compounds within reaction layers, microhardness profile showed a peak of 300 HV where both parent metals have hardness <50 HV. Microhardness profile also showed that hardness decreases from the copper to the aluminium side.

“This mechanism was also observed in other casting technologies, which apply significantly less pressure.In their investigations of aluminum-copper compound casting using a sand mold under normal atmospheric conditions, Zare et al. [15] describe a similar process of an interfacial layer formation.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
