Optimisation of the heat treatment cycles of CSIR semi-solid metal processed Al-7Si-Mg alloys A356/7
Conventional casting alloys Al-7Si-Mg A356/7 contain between 6.5 and 7.5% Si, together with 0.25-0.7% Mg and are used for critical castings in the automotive and aerospace industries. These alloys are also the most popular alloys used for semi-solid metal (SSM) forming due to good castability and fl...
