Effects of Cr-addition on ageing response of an Al–Si–Mg die cast alloy

Effects of Cr-addition on ageing response of an Al–Si–Mg die cast alloy

Yiwu Xu ab1, Yuxin Zhang c1, Jinping Li d, Pan Wang e, Jianfeng Wang e, Houwen Chen c, Houqing Sun f, Hongyi Zhan e Abstract Chromium (Cr) is rarely added to Al–Si die cast alloys as it has a strong tendency to induce the formation of coarse-sized sludge particles. In the present study, high pressure die-cast samples made of Al-7wt.%Si–Cr–Mg alloys with varied Fe contents (0.11 wt%, 0.26 wt% and 0.32 wt%) were tensile tested under as-cast and T5 heat-treated conditions, in comparison

Salt core technology used for high pressure die casting

Salt core technology used for high pressure die casting With the development of the manufacturing industry, aluminum die casting parts are increasingly used in many fields, and hollow die casting parts can increase the strength of the structure and reduce the weight. Vacuum die casting is mainly used for automotive parts and can make thin
