Abstract

Commercial alloys of Al-1 (wt.%) (91.9 -94.6Al, 4.8-5.8Mg, 0.5 Si =Fe, 0.1Cu, 0.05-0.08Mn, 0.005Be), Al-2 (90.8-94.7Al, 1.2-1.8Mg, 0.5Si = Fe, 3.8-4.9Cu, 0.3-0.9Mn, 0.1Ni), and Ti (94.2-96.9Ti, 1.0-2.5Al, 0.15Si, 0.3Fe, 0.3Zr, 0.7-2.0Mn, 0.15O, 0.3X) contain impurities, but bear no indication of their composition and structure, on which the performance characteristics of the materials depend. The purpose of this work was to develop an method and program for determining the alloys’ composition. The use of a complex of X-ray phase and elemental (EDX) analyses, crystal chemical calculations (the theory of closest packing—CP, metal radii—r(M)Å, and Vegard’s—V or Retger’s—R rules) allowed us to determine the compositions of these alloys.

Al-1. Substitutional solid solution (SSS) (Al1-xMgx) (sp.gr. Fm3m; аexp=4.088(7)Å) with type (ST) of Cu (98%) + impurities (2%): aCP(Al)=4.045Å, “aCP(Mg)”=4.526Å - (Al0.90Mg0.10)CP+V (~350°C) [1]; EDX (wt.%): 91Al, 8Mg, 0.2Fe, 0.3Si, 0.5Mn.

Al-2. SSS (Al1-xCux) (STCu; аexp=4.036(4)Å): aexp(Al)=4.049Å, aexp(Cu)=3.615Å; aCP(Al)=4.045Å, aCP(Cu)=3.620Å - (Al0.97Cu0.03)V =(Al0.98Cu0.02)CP+V (~500°C) [2]; EDX (wt.%): 98.3Al, 0.7Mg, 0.3Fe, 0.4Si, 0.1Mn, 0.1Cu, 0.1Ni.

Ti. SSS (Ti1-xAlx) (sp.gr. P63 /mmc; aexp=2.942, cexp=4.678Å, c/a=1.590, V=35.064Å3) with ST derived from Mg (c/a=1.633): aexp(Ti)=2.950Å, cexp(Ti)=4.684Å, V=35.300Å3; aCP(Ti)=2.940Å, cCP(Ti)=4.675Å, VCP=34.994Å3; “aCP(Al)”=2.860Å, “cCP(Al)”=4.547Å, VCP=32.208Å3 - (Ti0.92Al0.08)CP+R; “aCP(Mn)”=2.540Å, “cCP(Mn)”=4.039Å, VCP=22.566Å3 - (Ti0.98Mn0.02)CP+R; (Ti1.00-0.80Al0-0.12Mn0-0.08) (700°С) [3]; EDX (wt.%): 84.6Ti, 2.5Al, 1.0Mn, 0.2Si, 0.1Fe, 11.6О.

Thus, the composition of Al-1, Al-2, and Ti alloys are different from those indicated by the certificates.
