The spray formed materials are of equiaxed and very fine grain (10～20 μm). And the grain size coarsens slower than that of conventional casting materials at temperature below the liquidus, which may relate to high temperature particles distributed along the grain boundaries. Extrusion and hot pressing were used as the thixoforming processes respectively. After extrusion the materials show a microstructure of mean grain size below 20 μm without obvious recrystallization. The mechanical properties achieved via extrusion and pressing in semi solid state attain that of common wrought materials with shorter peak aging time of 4～5 h, about half of that in conventional condition.

The preparation technology and process parameters were discussed. It is shown that SiC particulate can be continuously and evenly fed and co deposited in the spray forming process. The reciprocally scanning movement of spraying system can make the SiC particulates distribute homogeneously in the composite. The ratio of SiC particulates captured by the metal matrix is influenced by process parameters, especially the metal flow rate. 6066/SiC p composite preforms of d 300 mm×540 mm and tubes with a size of up to d 650/ d 300 mm×1 000 mm were made by the same process. After extrusion and T6 heat treatment, the multi layer spray deposited 6066/SiC p composites can achieve improved properties. [展开更多

The results show that aluminium alloy cylindrical preforms of a size up to d 320 mm×500 mm can take shape well by applying multi layer tilted spray deposition technology if the process is controlled properly. The spray system scans in a radius ranging from the center to the rim of the preform, and the velocity is inversely proportional to the displacement. The multi layer deposited preforms exhibit high cooling rate. The larger the diameter is and the higher the cooling rate and yield are.展开更多
