摘要
The effect of alpha-Fe and beta-Fe intermetallics concentration and morphology as well as alpha-Al morphology on the microstructure and mechanical properties of thixoformed and gravity cast A380 alloy was reported. The alpha-Al15Si2(Fe,Mn)(3) intermetallic particle was observed polyhedral morphology in thixoforming while it was observed Chinese script morphology in conventional gravity casting. The beta-Al5FeSi particle was solidified in the form of small plate in thixoforming while it was solidified in the form of needle-like in gravity casting at the grain boundaries of alpha-Al. The mechanical properties of the alloys have been enhanced by thixoforming compared with the conventional cast condition. Copyright (C) 2014, Karabuk University.
