M - Tin BronzeP - Wear RingAp - ShipCd - Removed From Service
Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Dendritic
Micrography of a transverse section of the ring showing a cored alpha structure with strong segregation at interdendritic regions, and regions of a white structure at grain boundaries. This structure is in a region close to the center of the ring.

Tin Bronze Wear Ring of Seawater Pump
M - Tin BronzeP - Wear RingAp - ShipCd - Removed From Service
Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Dendritic
Micrographic detail of the cored alpha structure with light segregation at intergranular regions (light layer at grain boundaries), and a white euctetoid structure (alpha and delta) at interdendritic space. This structure is in a region close to the ring surface, where the solidification was quicker.

Tin Bronze Wear Ring of Seawater Pump
M - Tin BronzeP - Wear RingAp - ShipCd - Removed From Service
Cm - FeCl3+HCl+H2O Etched MicroDf - Grain boundary intermetallics
Micrographic detail of the cored alpha structure with strong segregation at intergranular regions (dark layer at grain boundaries), and a white euctetoid structure (alpha and delta) at interdendritic space. This structure is in a region close to the center of the ring, where the solidification was slower.
