Effects of Solid Fractions in a Slurry Die Casting Process on Defects of 7075 Aluminum Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effects of Gas Induced Semi-Solid (GISS) in the slurry die casting process on defects of 7075 aluminum alloy were studied, different initial solid fractions with 10, 15, and 20 sec of rheocasting time were investigated. The results showed that the percentage of porosity in semi-solid die casting was smaller than in the liquid die casting. In terms of the initial solid fraction in 7075 aluminum alloy, it was found that the defects were found when the initial solid fraction was high. In addition.
