Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is known that Al3Ti phase in Al-Ti refiner is an effective catalytic substrate for solidification of alpha aluminum. However, since the Al3Ti phase has a tetragonal D022 structure with lattice constants of a = 0.3851 nm and c = 0.8608 nm, different planes of Al3Ti phase have different lattice misfit between aluminum. Moreover, it is reported that the shape of Al3Ti in Al-Ti refiner is platelet and wide plane of the platelet has the relatively large lattice misfit between aluminum. Therefore, the dominant face of Al3Ti platelets in Al-Ti refiner is not the best plane for heterogeneous nucleation. In this study, the effects of morphologies of the Al3Ti particles on refining performance of the Al-Ti refiner is investigated. Improvement of grain refining performance of Al-Ti refiner by changing the shape of Al3Ti heterogeneous nucleation site particles is carried out.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

アルミニウムの密度は,鉄や銅と比較しておよそ1/3であり,自動車や鉄道を代表とした輸送機器に使用することで,地球温暖化ガス排出量削減が可能である.この為には,アルミニウムおよびその合金の強度向上が望まれおり,一つの解決法として鋳造時の微細化剤添加による組織制御がある.本研究で,Al3Tiヘテロ凝固核による微細化機構の原理原則の一端が究明でき,これを発展させることにより,将来優れた微細化剤を提供することが可能となり,地球温暖化抑制に寄与できる.
