Abstract
At present, casting and wrought high-strength and light aluminum alloys are widely used in the creation of a number of products and units in mechanical engineering, aviation and space technology. The process of developing alloys includes the formation of initial design data covering the operating conditions, the necessary physical, mechanical and other characteristics of products, and also considers the requirements of manufacturability in their manufacture and ensuring a given structure. To achieve these goals, when smelting aluminum alloys, Al-Mg, Al-Cu, Al-Mn, Al-B, Al-Ti ligatures are used. Despite the widespread use of ligatures, there is no single set of requirements for their quality. However, recent studies in the field of structural heredity in the "charge - melt - cast product" system have shown that the structure of the ligature has a significant hereditary effect on the crystallization process, structure and properties of the modified alloy. In this work, a study of the Al-5Ti-1B master alloy was carried out using synchronous thermal analysis, which made it possible to establish such properties as: the magnitude of the thermal effect, the temperature of its onset, enthalpy, and the crystallization interval. The results obtained make it possible to expand the bank of initial data to improve existing programs for modeling casting processes and to develop new ones.
