The present paper illustrates a comparison of infrared thermography during ultrasonic fatigue testing of cast steel 42CrMo4 and cast aluminium alloy AlSi7Mg. Against the background of different material properties (e.g. mechanical properties as well as thermal properties) the benefit of this non-destructive material testing method in terms of determining the crack initiation point and time during fatigue testing as well as crack propagation is evaluated and discussed. Moreover, correlations between fractography and infrared thermography are performed for both materials.

This work examined effects of hard surface polishing grits and activation on electroless-nickel (EN) plating on cast aluminium alloy substrates in sodium hypophosphite baths. As-received aluminium alloy sample sourced from automobile hydraulic brake master cylinder piston was melted in electric furnace and sand cast into rod. The cast samples were polished using different grits (60 μm–1200 μm) before plating. The effects on adhesion, appearance, and quantity of EN deposits on substrates were studied. Observation shows that the quantity of EN deposit is partly dependent on the alloy type and roughness of the surface of the substrates, whereas the adhesion and brightness are not solely controlled by the degree of surface polishing. The best yield in terms of adhesion and appearance was obtained from the activation in zincate and palladium chloride solutions. Higher plating rates (g/mm2/min) of 3.01E-05, 2.41E-05, and 2.90E-05 were obtained from chromate, zincate, and chloride than 8.49E-06, 8.86E-06, and 1.69E-05 as obtained from HCl etched, NaOH, and H2O activated surfaces, respectively.
