Abstract

The capability of friction stir processing (FSP) in tensile properties/quality index enhancement of Al–Si–Mg alloys produced by 100% recycling of uncleaned and pre-cleaned machining chips was studied. Toward this end, FSP was applied on as-cast samples under the optimized parameters (rotation and traverse speeds of 2000 rpm and 12 mm/min). The results showed that the as-recycled samples show inferior tensile properties where the quality index of samples prepared by uncleaned chips (7.8 MPa) and pre-cleaned chips (33.7 MPa) is lower than that of sample prepared by virgin A356 ingot (300 MPa). Applying FSP substantially enhanced the tensile properties and quality index of the samples due to the microstructural modification/densification and the elimination of casting defects. For instance, the quality index of the four-pass FSPed recycled sample increased up to 43% compared to that of the as-cast A356 sample prepared by virgin ingots.
