Abstract

Disclosed is a method for producing a composite material, wherein two or more composite components are arranged with respect to one another by casting to form a composite, so as to create a contact region essentially without a material bond between the composite components, wherein the composite components are thereafter materially bonded to one another in the contact region by means of a hot-rolling process.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for producing a composite material, the method comprising:
providing a solid first composite component, wherein the first composite component is made from one of:
a carbon steel;
a rust-, acid-, and heat-resistant steel;
an FeAlCr steel;
an FeMn steel;
a Ni-alloy; and
a Ti-alloy;

casting a second composite component in contact with the first composite component to create a third composite component, wherein for the third composite component, a contact region is formed between the first composite component and the second composite component in which there is no material bond between the first composite component and the second composite component in the contact region, wherein:
said casting step comprises creating a temperature difference of at least 500° C. between the first composite component and the second composite component in air,
the temperature difference causing the second composite component to contract against the first composite component to minimize air inclusions; and

materially bonding the first composite component to the second composite component in the contact region by hot-rolling the third composite component.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said casting step comprises one of casting the second composite component around the first composite component or casting the second composite component into a construction space bounded by the first component.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first composite component includes one or more of a core, a rod, and a plate, and wherein the second composite component made from a melt.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the created third composite component has a volumetric proportion of an inner composite component of at least 30% of the total volume.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the casting step is performed in a permanent mold.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein said materially bonding step comprises deforming the created third composite component in order to compress voids.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein during said casting step, the third composite component that is created has a form-fitting engagement between the first composite component and the second composite component.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second component is made from one or more of a carbon steel, a rust-, acid- and heat-resistant steel, an FeAlCr steel, a Ni-, Ti-, Al- or Mg alloy and an FeMn steel.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein said first composite component is formed as one of a casting mold or shell.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, prior to said materially bonding step, heating the third composite component to a hot-rolling temperature.

11. A method for producing a composite material, the method comprising:
providing a solid first composite component;
casting a second composite component around the first composite component,
wherein a contraction of the second composite component takes place during the casting causing the second composite component to mechanically join with the first composite component in a form-fitting manner such that the first composite component is enclosed by the second component and air inclusions are minimized, a contact region is formed between the first composite component and the second composite component, the contact region being devoid of a material bond between the first composite component and the second composite component, and
the casting step comprises creating a temperature difference of at least 500° C. between the first composite component and the second composite component in air; and

subsequently materially bonding the first composite component to the second composite component in the contact region by hot-rolling to form a third composite component.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first composite component includes one or more of a core, a rod, and a plate, and wherein the second composite component made from a melt.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first composite component makes up at least 30% of the total volume of the third composite component.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the casting step is performed in a permanent mold.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the materially bonding step comprises deforming the third composite component to compress voids between the first composite component and the second composite component.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein one of the first composite component or the second composite component is made from one or more of a carbon steel, a rust-, acid- and heat-resistant steel, an FeAlCr steel, a Ni-, Ti-, Al- or Mg alloy and an FeMn steel.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein both of the first composite component and the second composite component are made from one or more of a carbon steel, a rust-, acid- and heat-resistant steel, an FeAlCr steel, a Ni-, Ti-, Al- or Mg alloy and an FeMn steel.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein said first composite component is formed as one of a casting mold or shell.

19. A method for producing a composite material, the method comprising:
providing a solid first composite component, wherein the first composite component is made from one of a carbon steel, a rust-, acid- and heat-resistant steel, an FeAlCr steel, an FEMn steel, a Ni- or Ti-alloy;
casting a second composite component in contact with the first composite component to form a third composite component, wherein:
the casting step includes creating a temperature difference of at least 500° C. between the first composite component and the second composite component in air; and
a contact region is formed between the first composite component and the second composite component in which there is no material bond between the first composite component and the second composite component in the contact region;

during the casting of the second composite component, contracting of the second composite component to mechanically join the second composite component with the first composite component in a form-fitting manner to minimize air inclusions; and
subsequently materially bonding the first composite component to the second composite component in the contact region by hot-rolling the third composite component.
