Application of calorimetry in evaluation of phase transformations in the selected hypoeutectic silumins

Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 2

Abstract

The investigations of phase transformations described in this study were carried out on hypoeutectic alloys from the Al-Si during heating and cooling. The determination and analysis of characteristic temperature values from the solidification range was made by the DSC method in calorimetric investigations carried out on a high-temperature multi HTC Setaram scanning calorimeter. Applying the lever rule, the phase composition of the examined slumins was calculated and compared with the results of DSC calorimetry.
