Metallographic Analysis of Parts Produced by Rheocasting Method SEED

Article Preview

Abstract:

The article shows the analysis of castings parts produced by rheocasting method SEED. Structures of as cast and heat treated castings samples were observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy. Scanning electron microscope was also used for studying of fracture surfaces after destruction of the samples during testing of mechanical properties. Also analysis of chemical composition of specific phenomena found within the structure is described. Findings resulting from those analyses are related with the technological settings and other process conditions.
