VISCOSITY END ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF LIQUID HYPEREUTECTIC ALLOYS AL-SI

Abstract

<p class="AMSmaintext">The kinematic viscosity of AlSi20 liquid alloy was measured by using the crucible rotating oscillation damping method, and the viscosity-temperature relation curve ν(T) in the temperature range of 850∼1200K was obtained. The viscosity changed abnormally with temperature in the heating process, i.e., the viscosity turned from rapid increase to gradual decrease when the temperature increased to 1000∼1100 K, while the viscosity diminishes exponentially with temperature in the subsequent cooling process. The microscopic mechanism of the evolution of viscosity was analyzed from the viewpoint of the micro-inhomogeneity theory of metallic melts, and it was found that the destruction of the β-Si phase was the basic reason of the head-turning change of viscosity. The paper discussed the correlation of the viscosity and atomic density, which is thought that the viscosity corresponds to the atomic density to some extent.The abstract should be written in the past tense, because it refers to work which was already done. Any equations and references are not allowed. It must state the main object, scope, findings, describe the methodology, summarize the results and state the principal conclusions.</p>
