Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Sn-Zn Alloys by Gas Induce Semi-Solid Casting Process (GISS)

Article Preview

Abstract:

The study aimed at development of mechanical properties to make a comparison between Sn-50wt%Zn and Sn-50wt%Bi were investigated by properly design experiments, respectively, different mold temperature affecting the particle size of Sn-50wt%Zn, mechanical properties and microstructure were developed by GISS process, hardness test were used to compare both alloys. The results show that mold temperature has an effect on the grain sizes and grain characteristics. Gas Induce Semi-Solid (GISS) caused granular grains to affect the good mechanical properties.
