Optimisation of the mechanical properties of a modified aluminium 7% silicon-magnesium casting alloy by heat treatment

Due to the problem of obtaining the predicted mechanical properties for Al-Si alloys, especially after heat treatment, trial batches of sodium, strontium and unmodified alloys were cast. The alloys were cast using a standard test bar design. The material was solution treated, quenched and aged (at b...
