Effect of La Addition on Solidification Behavior and Phase Composition of Cast Al-Mg-Si Alloy

The current study focusses on the phase composition, solidification path, and microstructure evaluation of gravity cast Al-4Mg-0.5Si-<i>x</i>La aluminum alloy, where <i>x</i> = 0, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 wt.% La. A computational CalPhaD approach implemented in Thermo-Calc...
