Quasi-Static Compressive Characteristics of Cu-Containing Closed-Cell Aluminum Foams

Article Preview

Abstract:

Closed-cell aluminum foam with different percentages of Cu was prepared by melt foaming method.The effect of Cu element on the quasi-static compressive properties of aluminum foam was investigated, both under as-cast and heat-treated conditions. The results showed that Cu element distributed in cell wall matrix mainly in the forms of Al-Cu solid solutions and AlCu3, Al_6.1Cu_1.2Ti_2.7 intermetallics. Meanwhile, Cu-containing foams possessed much higher compressive strength than the commercially pure aluminum foams. Additionally, proper heat treatment could further improve the yield strength of Cu-containing foams and the effect of aging treatment was more obvious than the homogenizing heat treatment under the present conditions and the reasons were discussed.
