Outline of Final Research Achievements

Lotus-type porous metals with directional pores can be fabricated by unidirectional solidification utilizing the solubility gap of hydrogen between solid and liquid. If hydrogen rejected in solidified metal at the solid/liquid interface is supplied into pores, the pores can continue to grow in the solidification direction without termination, resulting in forming long pores. However, owing to convection due to gravity, hydrogen diffuses away and does not contribute to the growth of pores. In the present work, high magnetic field as much as 10 Tesla was used to suppress such convection of the liquid and enhance the long-directional pores. The aspect ratio is defined as the ratio of length against the diameter of pore. The aspect ratio of the pores was improved by 10 Tesla magnetic field.
