ABSTRACT: The objective of this research are to study the influence of Cu concentration on Al-Cu Alloy toward columnar microstructure and mechanical properties to pass unidirectional solidification process with free convection method. Al-( 2,2; 3,1; 4,4; and 4,7wt%Cu) in hypoeutectic alloy, were melted in the crucible furnace up to 700 0C and poured in the die mold stainless steel ( 100 mm length and in diameter 5 mm ). Unidirectional solidification was done with remelting Al-Cu in die mold that gave 7 mm in thick clay isolation, it used electric furnace up to 700 – 710 0C. Cooling process was done with water over chiller metal lighted under die mold. Material was tested namely microstructure, hardness and tensile strength test. The resul...
