Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Al-Si Alloy in Ascast and Heat Treated Condition

Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 8

Abstract

In the present research, the microstructure and mechanical properties of LM 25 Alloy under ascast and T6 heat treatment conditions produced by liquid metallurgical route were studied. The outcomes showed that, eutectic silicon, α-Al primary and Mg2Si are the main phases in the microstructure of LM 25 alloy produced by liquid metallurgical route. The hardness, ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and Elongation of LM 25 alloy under T6 heat treatment improved by 14.8%, 49%, 73% and 18% respectively as compared to ascast conditions.
