Abstract: The suspected cases of contamination of fuel in the ten MIG 21 Bison aircrafts collected fromaircraft fuel system are investigated. Residue collected from all the 10 aircraft's fuel system has flattenedaluminium particles as a major constituent of the residue, amounting to 70-80%, o[ total residue in eachaircraft. The maximum size of these particles is - 100 !illl. These particles are derived from componentsmade o[ AI-Mg alloy. The flattened morphology of Al particles and abrasion makes on the flat [acesindicates that the particles are generated because of contact abrasive wear in the system. Moreover, themorphology of some of the particles is similar to that of machined chips, which might have formed duringinitial stage of abrasion when the tolerances between contacts are tight. Rest of the balance (20-30%) residueconsists of mineral particles of varying composition and maximum size of -25 !illl. This may be ofextraneous origin, such as rock/mineral/sand. Few isolated dendrites of tin arc found in the residue of 4aircraft's fuel system. Tin has a melting point of 232° C and these dendrites are fom1ed during solidificationof tin. This might have fom1cdduring tinning of surfaces of components in the system.

NATONAL METALLURGICALLABORATORY, JAMSIJEDJ>URInvestigation on the Residue of Fuel System of MIG 21 Bison Aircrafts
REPORT No: NMUMST/IAF/1.13/64/200S, July 2005.
BACKGROUND
There were cases of suspected contamination of fuel at the operating base of MIG 21 Bison
aircrafts. The residue was collected from the fuel system of ten such aircrafts. The residue of
the fuel system showed the presence of shining and dull grey particles. The filtered samples
collected on Millipore paper were received at NML, Jamshedpur, from 40 Wing, AF on 4th
July 2005. The investigation was assigned to NML vide Letter No. 40W/S.820/2/l/Eng dated
28thJune 2005 from 40 Wing, AF.
SCOPE OF WORK
Based on the requirements of the 40 Wing, AF, it was decided to do the following:
1. Visual examination, identification and samples preparation for microstructural analysis.
2. SEM morphological studies of residue particles.
3. Microanalysis of residue particles by SEM-EDS
4. To find out the type of materials and possibly the origin which causes the contamination
of the fuel.
EXPERIMENT AL RESULTS
Visual Examination, Sample Preparation, & Identification
All the residue samples collected from the fuel system of ten MIG 21 Bison aircrafts arc
listed in the following table. Samples are prepared by sprinkling the collectcd residue on
double-sided carbon tape mounted on brass stubs for microstructural and microanalysis in
SEM-EDS. The overall appearance of residues is collated in the Table -1.
Microstructural Studies
The microstructural features are observed in JEOL 840 A scanning electron mlcroscopc
(SEM). This reveals the morphology and distribution of constituent particles in thc residuc
ii'om each aircraft. The compositional analyses of representative particle arc also analysed by
K.evcx energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The summary of these observations is collatcd
in the Table I whereas microstructural and microanalysis data are illustrated in Appendix-I
(Fig. I to Fig. 10). In general, residue tTom each aircraft consists of dark platesltlakcs and

white charging particles. The charging of white particles under electron beam indicates that
they are non-conducting material which may be derived from rock/sand/mineral and therefore
of extraneous origin. The contrast of these two classes of particles is reversed in SEM
micrographs as compared to visual appearance. The EOS microanalysis of plate/flake
indicated Al as major element and Mg as minor element. The Mg peak in the EOS spectra
appear as small hump on the left side of the AIKa peak. The spectra of AI-particles from all
the aircrafts have similar nature. Therefore, these plates/flakes are derived Irom the same AI-
Mg alloy. Moreover, the surfaces of Al particles are decorated with abrasive wear marks.
This indicated that these Al particles are generated by abrasion of a component made of AI-
Mg alloy in the fuel system. EOS microanalysis of white charging particles shows presence
of elements, usually found in minerallrock/sand. These particles have different composition
indicating presence of different mineral phases. The maximum size of Al platelets and
mineral particles are -100 !lm and -25 !lm respectively. The residue from each aircraft
contains about 70-80% of Al particles and rest constitutes the mineral particles. In addition
few dendrites of Sn have been observed in the residue of four aircrafts. The dendrites are
usually formed because of solidification of molten metal.

NATONAL METALLURGICAL LABORATORY, JAMSIIEOPURInvestigation on the Residue of Fuel System of MIG 21 Bison Aircrafts
REPORT No: NMLIMST/IAF/1.13/641100S, July 2005.
CONCLUSIONS
1. Residue collected from all the 10 aircraft's fuel system has flattened aluminium particles
as a major constituent of the residue, amounting to 70-80% of total residue in each
aircraft. The maximum size of these particles is - 100 /lm.
2. The Al partic1es in all the aircraft are derived fTomcomponents made of AI-Mg alloy. The
flattened morphology of Al particles and abrasion makes on the ~at faces indicates that
the particles are generated because of contact abrasive wear in the',system. Moreover, the
morphology of'some of the partic1es is similar to that of machiI)ed chips, which might
have formed during initial stage of abrasion when the tolerances between contacts are
tight.
3. Rest of the balance (20-30%) residue consists of mineral particles of varying composition
and maximum size of -25 /lm. This may be of extraneous origin, such as
rock/mi neral/ sand.
4. Few isolated dendrites of tin are found in the residue of 4 aircraft's fuel system. Tin has a
melting point of 2320 C and these dendrites are formed during solidification of tin. This
might have formed during tinning of surfaces of components in the system.**********
