SOLIDIFICATION OF PURE METALS & ALLOYS
The solidification of metals and their alloys is an important industrial process.
Not only do structure alloys start with the casting of ingots for processing into reinforcing bars or structural shape, but when a metal is welded a small portion of metal near the weld melts and resolidifies.
PHASE DIAGRAM
![Page 4: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
After pouring into the mold, the molten metals/alloys cool and solidify.
Solidification is the most important phase transformation because most of metals/alloys undergo this transformation before becoming useful products.
Solidification involve liquid-solid phase transformation, e.g : casting process.
The solidification process differs depending on whether the metal is a pure element or an alloy.
![Page 5: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
In general the solidification of metals or alloys can be divided into the following steps:
i) The formation of nuclei in the melt (nucleation)
ii) The growth of nuclei into crystal
iii) The formation of a grain structure

Formation of the grain zones At the walls of the mold, the molten metals/alloys cools rapidly. As a result, the casting develops small equiaxed grains due to the large temp. gradient at the surface.
As cooling continues, the grains grow in the direction opposite to the heat flow where the grains grow inwardly as needles is known as columnar grains.
![Page 7: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
For pure metals, columnar grains will stop to grow until complete solidification has occurred.
For alloys, further cooling of the molten alloy will cause formation of large equiaxed grains, showing segregation of alloying components in the center of casting due to the imbalance in composition between the metal that has solidified and the remaining molten metal.
![Page 8: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Most metals are combined to form alloy in order to impart specific characteristic.
An alloy is a combination of two or more elements (added impurity atoms), at least one of which is a metal.
The addition of impurity atoms to a metal will result in the formation of a solid solution which composed of solvent (host atoms) and solute (alloying elements).
E.g : Steel/cast iron (iron base alloys), bronze/brass (copper base alloys), Al alloys, Ni base alloys, Mg base alloys, Ti alloys.
METALLIC SOLID SOLUTION
![Page 10: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Two types of solid solutions:i. Interstitial Solid Solution ii. Substitutional Solid Solution
Most engineering metals are combined with other metals or nonmetals to provide increased strength, higher corrosion resistance or the desired properties.
The simplest type of alloy is a mixture of two solution which is consists of two or more elements atomically dispersed in a single phase structure.
TYPES OF SOLID SOLUTION
![Page 11: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Examples of atoms that can form Interstitial Solid Solutions due to their small size are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen.
A solid solution formed in which solute atoms can enter the holes in the solvent-atom lattice. The solute atoms fit into the spaces between the solvent or parent atoms.
Interstitial Solid Solutions
![Page 12: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The lattice distortion creates a strain along the slip planes and grains of the material, which results in the increase of strength and hardness because it makes atom-by-atom slip along those planes more difficult.
i) Substitutional solid solution ii) Interstitial solid solution
Figure : This is a schematic illustrating how the lattice is strained by the addition of substitutional and interstitial solute. Notice the strain in the lattice that the solute atoms
cause.
![Page 13: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
A solid solution in which solute atoms of one elements can replace those of solvent atoms of another element. It can be formed by two elements solute atoms can substitute for parent solvent atoms in a crystal lattice. The crystal structure of the solvent is unchanged, but the lattice may be distorted by the present of the solute atoms.
For example, in a Cu-Ni solid solution the Cu atoms can replace the Ni atoms in the solid solution crystal lattice.
2.2.2 Substitutional Solid Solutions
![Page 14: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This configuration can be tend to occur when the atoms do not differ greatly in size and must be quite similar :
• Less than about 15% difference in atomic radii
• The same crystal structure
• Similar electronegativity (the ability of the atom to
attract an electron)
• The same valence.
![Page 15: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2.3 SOLUTION
When two components combined they can either remain separate entities or combine to form a single phase which is referred to as a solution. Degree to which the two components mix is referred to as the solubility.
Solutions can also occur in the solid state and with the same range of solubility as described for liquids.
Examples: Cu and Ni are completely soluble
Zinc has limited solubility in copper
Pb insoluble in copper
Examples:
Alcohol and water – completely solubleHot choc – powder mix soluble in water but limited extent
Oil and vinegar – insoluble liquids can be temporarily mixed
![Page 16: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A phase diagram is a graphical representation of the phases present, composition, and temperature at equilibrium of the structure of an alloy or ceramics in which the phases are stable. Phase Diagram most important tools available to materials scientist and engineers.
2.4.1 Binary Phase Diagrams
A binary phase diagrams consist of two elements in
one alloy. There are three type of phase diagrams:
i. Complete Solid Solution
ii. No Solid Solution
iii. Limited Solid Solution

2.5 THE GIBBS PHASE RULE
Phase diagram describe thermodynamic equilibrium condition. Number of phases in equilibrium limited by thermodynamics.
This is described by Gibbs phase rule:
p + f = c + np = number of phases present
f = number of degrees of freedom
(state variables : Temperature, Pressure
and composition)
c = no. of components
n = no. of noncompositional variables
(n= 1 for alloy/ceramic, n= 2 for condensate)

2.6 INTERPRETATION OF PHASE DIAGRAM BY USING LEVER RULES METHOD
A phase diagram gives the following information:
• The phase present (solids and liquids or combinations)
• The composition (chemical makeup) of these phases • The amount of each phase
2.6.1 The phase present
One just locates the temperature – composition point
on the diagram and notes the phase(s) with which the
corresponding phase field is labeled.
![Page 27: Note Chp 2-material science 281 uitm em110](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013118/5467d142b4af9fff328b47aa/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2.6.2 The composition
i. Draw the tie line across the two-phase region at the temp. of the alloy.
ii. The intersections of the tie line & phase boundaries on either side are noted.
iii. Draw the perpendicular line from these intersections to the horizontal composition axis,

Cooling curve – useful tools for studying the solidification process.
In solidification of alloyed metals, the temp. of phase changes will be different for every composition (because alloy consists of 2 or more metals).
The temp. & comp. of phase changes can be graphed so that all possible combination of two pure metals are represented.
This will produce a graph known as PHASE DIAGRAM which shows the relationship among temp., comp. & phases present in alloy system.

2.9 INVARIANT REACTIONS
· Invariant reactions are found in phase diagrams of many binary alloys. An alloy may have only one invariant reaction ( e.g. Pb-Sn) or have many invariant reactions depending on concentration and temperature (see engineering alloys).
• Invariant reactions are always determined in a neighborhood of the triple point that pins the invariant reaction. According to Gibbs phase rule there is zero degrees of freedom at these reaction points.
When the degree of freedom is equal to zero, the reaction is called invariant reaction.
