Abstract
It was investigated regularities of structure formation and properties of cast alloys Al + 15 % Fe and Al + 40 % Fe depending on the conditions of obtaining. These alloys are promising in use as source materials for obaining antifriction materials for tribotechnical purposes. It was established that the structure of materials is two-phase and consists of matrix phase based on aluminum and intermetallic Al3Fe for alloy with 15 % Fe or Al.Fe for alloy wih 40 % Fe. Size of phase components depends on melt cooling rate and increases with increasing it, but their microhardness does not change. The hardness of materials increases with increasing iron content and decreasing with cooling rate during crystallization.
