NONFERROUS ALLOYS
• Cu Alloys
• Al Alloys
Brass: Zn is subst. impurity -lower : 2.7g/cm3
(costume jewelry, coins,
-Cu, Mg, Si, Mn, Zn additions
corrosion resistant)
-solid sol. or precip.
Bronze: Sn, Al, Si, Ni are
strengthened (struct.
subst. impurity
aircraft parts
(bushings, landing
& packaging)
gear)
• Mg Alloys
NonFerrous
Cu-Be:
-very low : 1.7g/cm3
Alloys
precip. hardened
-ignites easily
for strength
-aircraft, missles
• Ti Alloys
-lower : 4.5g/cm3
• Refractory metals
-high melting T
vs 7.9 for steel
• Noble metals -Nb, Mo, W, Ta
-reactive at high T -Ag, Au, Pt
-oxid./corr. resistant
-space applic.
Based on discussion and data provided in Section 11.3, Callister 6e.

METAL FABRICATION METHODS-I
FORMING
• Forging
(wrenches, crankshafts)
force
die
Ao blank
• Rolling
(I-beams, rails)
Ad often at
elev. T
• Drawing

• Extrusion
(rods, wire, tubing)

Chapter 11- 6
FORMING TEMPERATURE
• Hot working
--recrystallization
• Cold working
-- no recrystallization
--less energy to deform
--oxidation: poor finish
--lower strength
-- more energy to deform
-- no oxidation: good finish
-- higher strength
• Cold worked microstructures
--generally are very anisotropic!
--Forged
(a)
--Swaged
(b)
--Fracture resistant!

METAL FABRICATION METHODS-II
CASTING
• Sand Casting
(large parts, e.g.,
auto engine blocks)
• Investment Casting
• Die Casting
(high volume, low T alloys)
• Continuous Casting
(simple slab shapes)
(low volume, complex shapes
e.g., jewelry, turbine blades)
plaster
die formed
around wax
prototype
Chapter 11- 8
METAL FABRICATION METHODS-III
FORMING
• Powder Processing
(materials w/low ductility)
CASTING
JOINING
• Welding
(when one large part is
impractical)
filler metal (melted)
base metal (melted)
fused base metal

HARDENABILITY--STEELS
• Ability to form martensite
• Jominy end quench test to measure hardenability.

WHY HARDNESS CHANGES W/POSITION
• The cooling rate varies with position.

HARDENABILITY VS ALLOY CONTENT

Corporation.)
• "Alloy Steels"
(4140, 4340, 5140, 8640)
--contain Ni, Cr, Mo
(0.2 to 2wt%)
--these elements shift
the "nose".
--martensite is easier
to form.
