Study on dimensional and corrosion properties of thixoformed A356 and AA7075 aluminum bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (2014)
Journal Article

Metallic bipolar plates for polymer exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells are currently manufactured by stamping of thin sheets. However, there are dimensional and shape errors of microchannels because of forming limitation such as spring back of thin s...

Thixoforging of wrought aluminum thin plates with microchannels (2014)
Journal Article

A direct die-filling thixoforging method is designed to fabricate aluminum thin plates with a pattern of microchannels in a single forming operation. Extruded AA2024 and AA7075 wrought aluminum billets are used. A recrystallization and partial remelt... Read More about Thixoforging of wrought aluminum thin plates with microchannels.

Effect of forming conditions on mechanical properties of rheoformed thin plates with microchannels using electromagnetic stirring (2014)
Journal Article

Rheoforming is a near net-shape manufacturing technology for fabricating components from light alloys in their semisolid states with improved mechanical properties. In this work, a feasibility study on the fabrication of Silafont 36 aluminum thin pla...

Thin-plate forming by thixo- and rheoforging (2014)
Journal Article

Copyright © 2014 Chul Kyu Jin et al. Thin plates with a thickness of 1.2 mm are fabricated using two processes, thixoforging and rheoforging, which are semisolid forming techniques. The die design, formability, microstructure, and mechanical properti... Read More about Thin-plate forming by thixo- and rheoforging.
