| Abstract Scope |
Utilizing copper shells in Twin-roll casting (TRC) due to high process productivities provided by high thermal conductivity of copper when used as a shell material is a well-known application to fulfill increasing material demand seasonally and EN AW 3105 is one of those aluminum alloys, which is produced by using a steel/copper shell pair. However, as-cast material microstructure after solidification are distinctive on the material surface which is in contact with the copper shell when compared to the other surface in contact with the steel shell. These microstructural discrepancies observed at as-cast thickness are inherited to final product after rolling and annealing processes to a certain extent.
In this study, corrosion properties of an EN AW 3105 aluminum strip produced via TRC were scrutinized and it was concluded that the material surface, which solidified in contact with the copper shell performed better corrosion properties with respect to other surface. |
