Definitions
- This invention is concerned with a method of making a composite metal deposit by spray casting.
- the technique of spray casting is well known and comprises the steps of atomising a stream of molten metal to form a spray of hot metal particles by subjecting the stream to a relatively cold gas directed at the stream, and depositing the spray on a substrate.
- the provision of rapid and controlled cooling permits the production of deposits having unusual microstructures, which can be rolled or formed into shaped articles. But with only one source of molten metal, there is a limit to the range of compositions and microstructures that can be obtained.
- US Patent No 4674554 describes a spray casting method which includes the step of applying to the stream or spray fine, solid particles of a material of different composition from the metal. The particles are incorporated in the deposit.
- refractory particles e.g. of alumina or silicon carbide can result in metal matrix composites having enhanced properties.
- US Patent 4522784 describes a casting method in which two streams of molten metal are mixed just prior to casting, the smaller stream having a higher temperature than the larger stream and being chosen so that a fine intermetallic precipitate is formed during and prior to casting. With the DC casting methods described, it is difficult to remove heat fast enough from the system to prevent to resolution of the intermetallic precipitates.
- GB 1359486 describes a spray casting technique for casting two immiscible metals of different density. A single flow of molten metal consisting of concentric streams of the two metals is atomised and the drops collected on a substrate. The range of alloy compositions that can be cast in this way is quite restricted.
- This invention provides a convenient way of making composite metal deposits by spray casting, which is characterized over the above prior art by the fact that separate streams of molten metal are atomised separately. As a result, there is much less restriction on the compositions of the two metals.
- GB 1083003 describes a method of making bearing materials by spraying Al and Pb simultaneously onto a backing strip. This results in a microstructure comprising alternating regions, of size corresponding (substantially) to the molten spray droplets, of Al and Pb.
- US 3826301 contains a similar disclosure.
- the invention provides a method of making a laminated metal article having consecutive layers of deposited metal compositions wherein the compositions of any two consecutive layers in the laminated article are different which method comprises providing at least two metal streams and a substrate, atomising each of the metal streams to form at least two sprays of hot metal particles by subjecting each of the metal streams to relatively cold gas directed at the said metal streams, depositing metal particles from one of the said streams onto the substrate to form a first layer thereon, depositing metal particles from another of the same metal streams onto the first layer to form a second layer and, if desired, depositing in a consecutive manner layers of metal particles from any of the said sprays such that any two consecutive layers have different compositions whereby a laminate is produced, wherein the atomisation conditions are controlled such that the metal particles of the sprays are partially or fully liquid but supercooled on impact to the extent that solidification takes place immediately on impact or that deposition on the substrate is followed by immediate solidification.
- the first and second metal streams may be provided by gravity flow from holding vessels containing supplies of the molten metals.
- the invention contemplates the use of two, three or more molten metal streams, each being atomised separately, and references to first and second metal streams should be construed accordingly.
- Atomisation conditions may be chosen, as is known in the art, to control the size, velocity, direction and temperature of the sprays of hot metal particles.
- the particles of molten metal spread out in a conical spray pattern which may be of circular cross-section or may be modified, as known in the art, to form a different cross-section or a more even spread of metal particles.
- the substrate may be a metal surface, which may for example be flat or tubular with the metal spray to be deposited on the inner or the outer surface. It is generally preferred that the metal particles be still at least partially liquid on impact, otherwise the deposit may be too porous.
- the metal spray is partially or fully liquid but supercooled on impact, so that solidification takes place immediately on impact and there is no need to extract large amounts of heat through the substrate.
- fibres, whiskers or particles of refractory material e.g. carbon or silicon carbide
- refractory material e.g. carbon or silicon carbide
- particles of refractory material can be incorporated in the first and/or second spray by the technique described in US-A-4674554 noted above.
- Three (or more) sprays may be used.
- the spray patterns of two may be superimposed and operated simultaneously to form one layer of the laminate structure.
- the result therefore, is a laminated structure in which alternate layers have a microstructure resulting from the two simultaneously operated sprays.
- two superimposed sprays may be chosen to interact as described in the aforesaid US patent 4522784.
- the spray patterns of the first and second sprays may, but need not, overlap; that is to say, the two sprays may be arranged to impact on the same or different areas of the substrate.
- the substrate may be translated, or reciprocated, or rotated in order to pick up the two metal sprays.
- the two spray patterns of the two sprays do overlap, then it is necessary to operate the two sprays alternatively in order to achieve the desired laminated structure. In order to operate both sprays continuously, it is therefore preferred that the two spray patterns can be arranged not to overlap, and to reciprocate or rotate the substrate so that alternating layers of the two metals are deposited thereon.
- the laminated deposit comprises at least two layers of each metal in alternating superimposed relationship.
- the thickness of the alternating layers has a significant effect on the properties of the laminate.
- each layer preferably has a thickness in the range 0.01-100 mm, particularly 1-10 mm.

In this case, the sprays are operated continuously and the substrate 18 is reciprocated in order to obtain a deposit consisting of alternating layers of first and second metal.
- the spray patterns of the two metal sprays 14 and 16 are shown as partly overlapping when they impact on cylindrical substrate 18 which is caused to rotate round a horizontal axis 28.

Description
- This invention is concerned with a method of making a composite metal deposit by spray casting. The technique of spray casting is well known and comprises the steps of atomising a stream of molten metal to form a spray of hot metal particles by subjecting the stream to a relatively cold gas directed at the stream, and depositing the spray on a substrate. The provision of rapid and controlled cooling permits the production of deposits having unusual microstructures, which can be rolled or formed into shaped articles. But with only one source of molten metal, there is a limit to the range of compositions and microstructures that can be obtained.
- US Patent No 4674554 describes a spray casting method which includes the step of applying to the stream or spray fine, solid particles of a material of different composition from the metal. The particles are incorporated in the deposit. The use of refractory particles e.g. of alumina or silicon carbide can result in metal matrix composites having enhanced properties.
- US Patent 4522784 describes a casting method in which two streams of molten metal are mixed just prior to casting, the smaller stream having a higher temperature than the larger stream and being chosen so that a fine intermetallic precipitate is formed during and prior to casting. With the DC casting methods described, it is difficult to remove heat fast enough from the system to prevent to resolution of the intermetallic precipitates.
- GB 1359486 describes a spray casting technique for casting two immiscible metals of different density. A single flow of molten metal consisting of concentric streams of the two metals is atomised and the drops collected on a substrate. The range of alloy compositions that can be cast in this way is quite restricted.
- This invention provides a convenient way of making composite metal deposits by spray casting, which is characterized over the above prior art by the fact that separate streams of molten metal are atomised separately. As a result, there is much less restriction on the compositions of the two metals.
- GB 1083003 describes a method of making bearing materials by spraying Al and Pb simultaneously onto a backing strip. This results in a microstructure comprising alternating regions, of size corresponding (substantially) to the molten spray droplets, of Al and Pb. US 3826301 contains a similar disclosure.
- The invention provides a method of making a laminated metal article having consecutive layers of deposited metal compositions wherein the compositions of any two consecutive layers in the laminated article are different which method comprises providing at least two metal streams and a substrate, atomising each of the metal streams to form at least two sprays of hot metal particles by subjecting each of the metal streams to relatively cold gas directed at the said metal streams, depositing metal particles from one of the said streams onto the substrate to form a first layer thereon, depositing metal particles from another of the same metal streams onto the first layer to form a second layer and, if desired, depositing in a consecutive manner layers of metal particles from any of the said sprays such that any two consecutive layers have different compositions whereby a laminate is produced, wherein the atomisation conditions are controlled such that the metal particles of the sprays are partially or fully liquid but supercooled on impact to the extent that solidification takes place immediately on impact or that deposition on the substrate is followed by immediate solidification.
- The first and second metal streams may be provided by gravity flow from holding vessels containing supplies of the molten metals. The invention contemplates the use of two, three or more molten metal streams, each being atomised separately, and references to first and second metal streams should be construed accordingly.
- Atomisation conditions may be chosen, as is known in the art, to control the size, velocity, direction and temperature of the sprays of hot metal particles. On being atomised, the particles of molten metal spread out in a conical spray pattern, which may be of circular cross-section or may be modified, as known in the art, to form a different cross-section or a more even spread of metal particles.
- The substrate may be a metal surface, which may for example be flat or tubular with the metal spray to be deposited on the inner or the outer surface. It is generally preferred that the metal particles be still at least partially liquid on impact, otherwise the deposit may be too porous. By suitable control of the atomising conditions, the metal spray is partially or fully liquid but supercooled on impact, so that solidification takes place immediately on impact and there is no need to extract large amounts of heat through the substrate.
- It is possible to provide fibres, whiskers or particles of refractory material, e.g. carbon or silicon carbide, on the substrate in such a way that they become embedded in the coherent composite metal deposit and provide reinforcement for it. Also if desired, particles of refractory material can be incorporated in the first and/or second spray by the technique described in US-A-4674554 noted above.
- Three (or more) sprays may be used. For example the spray patterns of two may be superimposed and operated simultaneously to form one layer of the laminate structure. The result, therefore, is a laminated structure in which alternate layers have a microstructure resulting from the two simultaneously operated sprays. Or two superimposed sprays may be chosen to interact as described in the aforesaid US patent 4522784.
- There is no critical range of ratios of the two metals constituting the first and second sprays. Suitable proportions of the two (or more) metals are chosen for particular applications. The spray patterns of the first and second sprays may, but need not, overlap; that is to say, the two sprays may be arranged to impact on the same or different areas of the substrate. The substrate may be translated, or reciprocated, or rotated in order to pick up the two metal sprays. These features can be used to exercise further control over the structure of the deposit. For example, if the spray patterns of the two sprays do not overlap and the substrate is reciprocated between them, the deposit may consist of alternating layers of first and second metal.
- If the spray patterns of the two sprays do overlap, then it is necessary to operate the two sprays alternatively in order to achieve the desired laminated structure. In order to operate both sprays continuously, it is therefore preferred that the two spray patterns can be arranged not to overlap, and to reciprocate or rotate the substrate so that alternating layers of the two metals are deposited thereon.
- Other variations in structure can be achieved by supplying a first metal stream initially, followed by the second, so that the deposit consists of the first metal with a surface coating of the second. The supply of molten metal in two or more streams gives the operator a great deal of latitude in determining the structure of a deposit.
- Preferably, the laminated deposit comprises at least two layers of each metal in alternating superimposed relationship. The thickness of the alternating layers has a significant effect on the properties of the laminate. In the as-sprayed deposit, each layer preferably has a thickness in the range 0.01-100 mm, particularly 1-10 mm. The as-sprayed deposit may be subjected to rolling. For many purposes it is preferred that each layer in the rolled product have a thickness of from 10 to 500 µm, particularly 30 to 200 µm.
- Since the two metals do not contact one another prior to deposition on the substrate, which is followed by immediate solidification, there is very little restriction on the nature of the metals that may be used. It would be disadvantageous if the temperature of one metal on deposition were so high that substantial melting of the other took place on the deposit. It is often convenient to use two different alloys of the same base metal. The method is of particular interest for spray casting aluminium alloys, for which purpose an inert gas such as argon or nitrogen is generally desirable though not essential.
- Reference is directed to Figures 1 to 3, each of which is a schematic diagram of a system for making a composite metal deposit according to the invention. Referring to Figure 1, the system comprises first and
second furnaces substrate 18, whose position and orientation are controlled bymeans 20. The metal sprays and the substrate are contained within aspray chamber 22, which is closed except for an exit vent for gas and any overspray powder. - A refractory material contained in a stream of carrier gas is supplied via a
pipe 26 to the region where the first metal is atomised, and becomes incorporated in thefirst metal spray 14. - In the system shown in Figure 1, the
substrate 18 might be maintained stationary, so as to build up a composite metal body thereon; or it might be translated, rotated or reciprocated in order to build up a uniform composite metal layer. Thesubstrate 18 might have taken the shape of a mould, with the intention of working the deposit while on the substrate to form a shaped article. - Figure 2 corresponds to Figure 1, except that the spray patterns of the two
metal sprays substrate 18 is reciprocated in order to obtain a deposit consisting of alternating layers of first and second metal. - In Figure 3, the spray patterns of the two
metal sprays cylindrical substrate 18 which is caused to rotate round ahorizontal axis 28. A fibre 30 is supplied from aspool 32 and becomes incorporated in the deposit. - There follows examples of combinations of metals and alloys that can be used to make composite metal deposits according to this invention. In each case, the first metal or alloy mentioned will generally be present in the deposit in a volume concentration as great or greater than the second metal or alloy.
- A. The first metal is the alloy designated 7010 in the Aluminium Association Register, and the second metal is a softer Al alloy such as 6061 or pure Al metal. 7010 is typically used for aircraft structures, and the second metal improves fracture toughness by a micro-laminated structure to reduce fatigue and blunt cracks.
- B. The first metal is 7010 alloy and the second metal is 6010 alloy to confer ductility, toughness and fatigue resistance.
- C. The first metal is 7010 alloy and the second metal is an Al/Zn alloy to improve stress corrosion resistance.
- D. The first metal is 7075 alloy, used for armour plating, and the second metal is an Al/Si alloy to increase resistance to spalling.
- E. The first metal is 7075 alloy, and the second metal is Pb to increase density, improve ballistic properties, and provide a microstructure to break up shock waves.
- F. The first metal is any Al alloy and the second metal is Zn, applied on the surface as a layer amounting to 1 to 5% of the total thickness of the deposit, to aid diffusion bonding.
- G. The first metal is 6061 alloy and the second metal is 7475 alloy + SiC to provide a product having improved ductility and toughness.
- Laminated material was sprayed using a combination of 6061 Al alloy from on atomizer and 7475 Al alloy + SiC from the other atomizer.
-
- The conditions for the 7475 alloy were the same apart from the melt temperature which was 710°C. SiC particulate (F600) was fed to the 7475 spray only, SiC was fed at a rate of 1.72 kg/min to the atomizing nozzle.
- Several batches of material were made using similar conditions.
- Measurements of the elemental distribution across the bands indicate that there has been a degree of interdiffusion between adjacent layers indicating that an effective metallurgical bond has been made between them. The SiC content of the 7475 layers was 10-12% by volume.
- The as - sprayed material was consolidated by hot rolling at 430°C to approximately 2 mm in thickness and then further cold rolling to 1 mm. Any as - sprayed porosity was found to close up during this process to form a fully consolidated product. The sheet was solution heat treated by holding for at least 30 min at 500°C and cold water quenching. The material was artificially aged for 20 hr at 120°C.

-
- These results illustrate that the combination of the two materials in the laminate can result in improvements in mechanical properties over the individual constituents. In this instance the results indicate an improvement in strength and ductility over 6061 and an improvement in ductility and crack initiation and propagation energy (indicating improved toughness) over the 7475 alloy with SiC. The results also indicate a significant improvement in the properties (notably ductility) over that of the 6061 alloy with SiC. It is also notable that the thickness of the laminated regions is highly important in controlling the final properties of the material - specifically in this instance the ductility and toughness of the laminate.
