  2. 21. On the influence of Si on anodising and mechanical properties of cast aluminium alloys

    Author : Baiwei Zhu; Caterina Zanella; Salem Seifeddine; Peter Leisner; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Al-Si based casting alloys; anodising; corrosion protection; mechanical properties; Al-Si-baserade gjutningslegeringar; anodisering; korrosionsskydd; mekaniska egenskaper;

    Abstract : The combination of two cost-effective processes, i.e. casting and anodising, would be an interest for the aluminium component applications. However, there are some obstacles in the application of anodising on cast Al alloys. READ MORE

  4. 22. Improved Energy Efficiency in the Aluminium Industry and its Supply Chains

    Author : Joakim Haraldsson; Magnus Karlsson; Maria Johansson; Max Åhman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Energy is an essential resource in the daily lives of humans. However, the extraction and use of energy has an impact on the environment. The industrial sector accounts for a large share of the global final energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The largest source of industrial GHG emissions is energy use. READ MORE

  5. 23. Chemical exposures, biological monitoring and cancer risks in Swedish aluminium foundries and remelting plants

    Author : Håkan Westberg; Hans Welinder; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : In aluminium foundries and remelting plants, a wide range of chemical agents are formed and emitted, including some highly toxic organochlorine compounds. This thesis explores emissions and exposures, as well as worker risk of porphyria and cancer. READ MORE

  6. 24. On the influence of imperfections on microstructure and properties of recycled Al-Si casting alloys

    Author : Anton Bjurenstedt; Salem Seifeddine; Anders E.W. Jarfors; Arne Dahle; Johan Moverare; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Imperfections; Recycled Al-Si alloys; Fe-rich intermetallics; Melt quality; Fractography; Defekter; Återvunna Al-Si legeringar; Fe-rika intermetaller; Smältakvalité; Fraktografi;

    Abstract : There are great energy savings to be made by recycling aluminium; as little as 5% of the energy needed for primary aluminium production may be required. Striving to produce high quality aluminium castings requires knowledge of microstructural imperfections, which is extra important when casting recycled aluminium that generally contains higher levels of imperfections compared to primary aluminium.
