Study on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Hypereutectic Al–18Si Alloy Modified with Al–3B

An hypereutectic Al–18Si alloy was modified via an Al–3B master alloy. The effect of the added Al–3B and the modification temperature on the microstructure, tensile fracture morphologies, and mechanical properties of the alloy were investigated using an optical microscope, Image–Pro Plus 6.0, a scan...
