Title: Properties of Particles Produced by Different Rapid Solidification Techniques
Abstract:Two methods of producing PM rapidly solidified 7XXX series aluminium alloy are described: melt spinning (ribbons → flakes) and air atomization (powders). The microstructure and properties of particles...Two methods of producing PM rapidly solidified 7XXX series aluminium alloy are described: melt spinning (ribbons → flakes) and air atomization (powders). The microstructure and properties of particles (shape, size distribution, alloying concentration profiles) are discussed with regard to cooling rate. The reseach also emphasizes the importance of particle oxidation and its influence on their behaviour during subsequent processing. The trade-offs required between the various particle properties that are considered suggest that melt spun material should be recommended for heat treatable aluminium alloys, while powders should be used for non-heat treatable alloys.
