The Influence of Sr Addition on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Die-casting Alloys

The effects of strontium addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of aluminum alloys 380 and 413 are researched. All samples are prepared through high pressure die-casting, and the effect of the sample’s thickness is also compared. The results indicate that the Sr addition can refine...
