Investigation of the Common Modification Effect of Strontium and Antimony on the Structure in Case of Al-Si Alloy

Abstract:

In the course of our investigations, AlSi8Cu3 foundry alloy was alloyed in different strontium and antimony concentrations. The mechanical properties of structure developed during the given cooling conditions as well as the effect of strontium and antimony on the modification of eutectic Si were investigated by a computer image analysis and by using a scanning electron microscope. Samples with a wall-thickness of 8 mm cast in the course of the experiment-series were used for our investigations. A part of our long-term research work is described in our present paper.
