Hongyi Zhu, Cunjuan Xia, Huawei Zhang, Dechao Zhao, Mingliang Wang & Haowei Wang Abstract In recent years, Non-Heat Treatable High Pressure Die Casting Al alloys (NHT-HPDC Al alloys) have been proposed and developed for integrated die casting in the automotive industry. These alloys exhibit excellent castability and can achieve sufficient mechanical properties without the need for heat treatment. Despite their industrial

Benjamin E. MacDonald1, Stuart Wiesner2, Ryan Holdsworth1, Carl Söderhjelm1 & Diran ApelianORCID:orcid.org/0000-0001-9743-606X1 Abstract The effects on phase equilibria of La and Fe additions to the Al–Ce–Ni-based alloy system are explored under high-pressure die casting conditions. The addition of La to Al–Ce–Ni-based alloy system only reacts with Ce synergistically to promote the formation of the Al11(Ce,La)3 intermetallic phase as predicted by CALculation
Semi-solid Die Casting of Some Aluminum Alloys for Lightweight Automotive Components Part of the Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering book series (LNME) Abstract The use of light alloys in automotive applications has been rapidly increasing in the industry as a means to reduce fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Semi-solid forming process for Al-Si based alloys, which
