10081856 · 2018-09-25 · ·

A method for the practice-oriented, operationally reliable production of castings of an AlCu alloy which consists of Cu:, Mn:, Zr:, Fe:, Si:, Ti:, V:, remainder Al and unavoidable impurities. A melt which has been melted according to this alloy formula is kept at temperature for several hours and then mixed vigorously at least once. Thereafter, the melt is cast in portions into the respective casting which is then solution annealed at temperature for several hours. The casting is quenched from the solution anneal temperature to a maximum temperature of 300? C., at a specified cooling rate which the casting passes through during quenching. The casting is then artificially aged for several hours at 150-300? C. Finally, the casting is cooled to room temperature.

Corrodible downhole article

A magnesium alloy is suitable for use as a corrodible downhole article, wherein the alloy includes: (a) 11-15 wt % Y, (b) 0.5-5 wt % in total of rare earth metals other than Y, (c) 0-1 wt % Zr, (d) 0.1-5 wt % Ni, and (e) at least 70 wt % Mg. It has been surprisingly found by the inventors that by increasing the Y content of the alloy to the range specified above, increased age hardening response and hence increased 0.2% proof stress can be achieved.

SHEAR INDUCED GRAIN REFINEMENT OF A CAST INGOT
20180243822 · 2018-08-30 · ·

Molten metal can be introduced into a liquid sump during direct chill (DC) casting, such as DC casting of aluminum, through a feed tube having a nozzle with an opening. The opening of the nozzle can be shaped and/or sized to generate a jet of molten metal within the liquid sump. The jet of molten metal can exhibit Reynolds number at or above a threshold amount. Such a jet can achieve improved metallurgical properties over standard casting techniques, such as improved grain refinement. A sufficiently high Reynolds number can be achieved by supplying the molten metal at a sufficiently high velocity. When supplying molten metal at a constant volumetric flow rate (e.g., to avoid fluctuations in casting speed), the nozzle can be crafted to have a smaller-than-standard diameter opening, thus generating a higher-than-standard velocity jet.
