Michels addressed in "Fading of Grain Refinement in Permanent Mold Cast Copper Alloys" (04-112) how grain refinement, or fading, occurs in several materials, such as yellow brasses and silicon bronzes, but at different time lengths.
Goal--This project investigated the role of processing variables on the grain refinement of four permanent mold cast copper alloys--yellow brass (C85800), EnviroBrass III (C89550), silicon brass (C87500) and silicon bronze (C87600)--and developed thermal analysis techniques to control grain refinement, fading and hard spot formation.
Some limited data on tensile properties also are available for silicon bronze (C87600).
