Link to full record for micrograph 615 Micrograph 615 : Cross-section of an aluminium casting
System: Al, Composition: Commercial purity (99.5%)
Reflected light microscopy
10 mm
Link to full record for micrograph 710 Micrograph 710 : Wrought-grade aluminium alloy (Al-Mg-Fe-Si containing < 1wt.% of each solute); refined with TiB2 particles. Deformation of grain structure is due to cutting of sample with scissors.
System: Al-Mg-Fe-Si, Composition: Not specified
Cross-polarised light microscopy
400 μm
Link to full record for micrograph 711 Micrograph 711 : As-cast wrought-grade aluminium alloy (Al-Mg-Fe-Si containing < 1wt.% of each solute). No addition of grain refinement particles (e.g. TiB2).
System: Al-Mg-Fe-Si, Composition: Not specified
Cross-polarised light microscopy
1 mm
Link to full record for micrograph 712 Micrograph 712 : As-cast wrought-grade aluminium alloy (Al-Mg-Fe-Si containing < 1wt.% of each solute). Addition of TiB2 particles facilitates the formation of a fine, equiaxed grain structure (grain refinement).
System: Al-Mg-Fe-Si, Composition: Not specified
Cross-polarised light microscopy
400 μm
Link to full record for micrograph 795 Micrograph 795 : Blackheart cast iron
System: Fe-C-X, Composition: Blackheart cast iron
Reflected light microscopy
100 μm
Link to full record for micrograph 796 Micrograph 796 : Blackheart cast iron
System: Fe-C-X, Composition: Blackheart cast iron
