What happens if we melt down brass, and melt down aluminum, then mix them together? In this mini metal foundry experiment, Grant takes metals to the TKOR metal foundry. If we put different metals in the foundry, what do you think will happen? The steps Grant Thompson covers for using a mini metal foundry for mixing metals and melting glass are super easy.
This metal foundry project is also great for those wanting to know how to make other cool things: forging aluminum, melting aluminum, melting brass, glass melting, molten metal, homemade foundry experiment, cool science projects and more! Let us know what cool foundry experiments you create!
If you’re looking to try something new or for an activity such as: DIY metal project, foundry projects, cool science experiments, fun weekend project, or just a fun project with the family, watch the video to learn more.

Copper Aluminide! CuAl2 is likely what you've made here and removed most of the zinc. This is technically a solid solution - not an alloy - since there are intermetallic bonds. Just about all intermetallic bonded materials are incredibly brittle because of the rigidity of the structure. Awesome experiment!

Thank you for pointing that out way better than I can. Cliff notes for those that cannot follow. If brass is composed of copper and zinc, and you burned off the zinc by getting the mixture too hot, you no longer have brass because you do not have the zinc. so that was a mixture of aluminum and copper. Lastly, the rapid cooling of the metal is what made it even more brittle; air cooling would have resulted in a stronger compound and a lower brinell hardness.

The reason why the metal became so brittle is because you cooled it with water. This causes micro air pockets to form in the newly mixed material, which make it extremely brittle. I would implore you to do the same half and half mixture and then let it cool on the concrete till room temp. The same principle can be found in welding, where whenever you add new material (or the weld filament), when you cool it down with water the same thing happens. The weld becomes brittle, and can’t hold up as much weight.

This is incorrect due to the fact of inter-metalic bonds, these two metals are not compatible. This makes them very brittle, although if it was cooled slowly it would be less brittle yet still very brittle.

The reason it shattered so easy doesn't have much to do with the metal more the fact that they are metals. While the aluminum is brittle, the reason it shattered so easily is because it was cooled down rapidly. This increases hardness (resistance to scratching) but increases brittleness (resistance to shattering). If it cooled down slowly, in air, in sand, etc. it would be less brittle but would also probably be less shiny

I dont think that is what happened here. If you take a look at the broken pieces you can see that the crystals are extremely large. Large crystals mean the alloy cooled down from liquid to solid very slow. Now iirc neither aluminium nor copper have a phase change below the melting temperature so cooling them fast after they solidified does not make any difference.

The rapid quenching with water tends to make metals a lot more brittle. The rate of cooling has a big effect on the way the crystalline structure forms and changes the metal properties a lot. That could make an interesting video, make the same mix of metal a few times, allow one to cool overnight, quench one in water, and quench one in liquid nitrogen. Then test how brittle they are.

I've been wondering for quite a while what will happen when you mix molten glass with molten metal, can you try that out?
@edlingja1
@edlingja1 7 лет назад
Yeah, I think you would be looking to suspend the metal in the glass structure, rather than blend them or make an alloy. Pretty sure glass is non-reactive and can only be decayed away. There are many examples of glass blowers using foreign particles to make designs, colourization, structure, etc. I think an ancient glass blowers used to blow finely ground particles into their pieces. Certainly for colouring, glass "alloys" are a possibility.

@Gaehhn
@Gaehhn 7 лет назад
Some crystal glasses use metal oxides from lead or zinc but you need temperatures way higher than 1000°C, which is enough to melt brass or copper, to properly combine the materials into glass. 1500°C is what you'd need to have at least. Other metal compounds are used to colour glass and lead glass is also used to shield from ionizing radiation. Molten metal probably wouldn't work though.

You'd get more consistent pours if you used a gravy ladle instead of pouring directly from the crucible. Also, the 50/50 alloy probably shattered because you cooled it quickly in water, introducing stress fractures, rather than slowly annealing it in the crucible.

I'm an Material Science and Engineering major and if you know the exact composition of each metal and the temperature you are heating it up to, you can find out what you end up with reading what's called a ternary phase diagram. If you notice that the bottom of your ingots looked more copper color, that is because your mix had reached max solubility leading to what's known as phase separation. Any mixture that does not have a homogeneous structure or color has some phase separation in it meaning, you have pure metals bonded to themselves instead of bonded to the two other metals. Essentially, you have a part of the ingot that is not an alloy.

FraznoFire That depends on your country. Davy spelled it alumium, then was and published in the official discovery as Aluminium. Young violated norms and decided take it upon himself to rename Davy's discovery as he liked -ium endings better (which also altered the pronunciation). Since this was discovered in 1812 when communications we're slow the aluminum spelling persisted in the US & Canada and aluminium persisted in British colonies. IUPAC indicates both are now valid and correct, and in official publicaions is almost 50/50.

When I'm making muffins I simply keep a five gallon Home Depot bucket two thirds full of water and then tap the muffins directly into it. Keeping the water at that level prevents any hot water from splashing out when the muffins hit but still gives you enough water to keep them from melting through the plastic bottom - you can pick them up with your hand in less than five minutes. If you're making lots of muffins then you needn't fret with having dangerously hot muffins sitting around air cooling - just keep dumping them into the bucket and when you're finished for the day you can dump the water and now you've got a bucket full of completely cool muffins. Added bonus - they make a really neat sound when you dump them in.

@GEEZUZ321 7 лет назад
metalhead0jtk right, it's a 75-25 mix of gold and silver/nickel depending on how cheap its made. But after the rhodium gets smelted off the white gold would be a pale green/yellow. Mixing that with an 18k yellow gold is going to make 18k yellow gold, the impurities of both alloys pretty much cancelling any color change and dulling the color of pure gold.mixing things labeled as gold alloys isn't terribly interesting because there isn't an enormous color range you can get with that much gold without plating the metal

Aluminum and copper are the basis for 'non-sparking' tools. Called aluminum bronze, it has a soft golden color, is a little heavier than Al and is very corrosion resistant. The curiosity I have is this: what do these alloys do in terms of heat-conductivity? Copper is one of the best cheap metals for carrying heat, Al comes in a distant third. Silver is the best, but at current prices you won't see too many Sterling Silver heat-sinks. Sterling is about 97% Ag, 3% Cu by weight. Next week on 'This old guy rambling', we make a Silver heat-sink by melting down some un-circulated 1923-D Peace dollars with a 1943 copper penny or two. Work with what you have, I guess.
