Influence of Li2Sb Additions on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Al-20Mg2Si Alloy

It is found that Li2Sb compound can act as the nucleus of primary Mg2Si during solidification, by which the particle size of primary Mg2Si decreased from ~300 to ~15–25 μm. Owing to the synergistic effect of the Li2Sb nucleus and adsorption-poisoning of Li atoms, the effect of complex modification o...
