Plasticity of the AlSi9Mg alloy modified with Na, F and Cl compounds

Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2010, Vol 10, Issue 2

Abstract

This paper presents the results of an experiment investigating the structure and the percent elongation of an AlSi9Mg alloy modified with NaCl, Na3AlF6 and NaF compounds. The alloy was modified in a crucible. The experiment had a factorial design of 23. Strength tests were performed on specimens with a diameter of 8 mm collected from a 16x140 mm cylinder cast in a sand mould. The applied modifier improved the studied alloy's eutectic properties and changed its percent elongation. Percent elongation values are presented in graphic form.
