Author:Moller, H; Govender, G; Stumpf, WE; Pistorius, PCDate:2010The heat treatment response of semisolid metal high pressure die cast Al-7Si-Mg alloys A356 and F357 was studied and compared. It was found that the heat treatment behaviour of alloy F357 is influenced markedly by the stability of the Mg ...Read more
Author:Müller, H; Govender, G; Stumpf, WEDate:Jun 2011Semi-solid metal high pressure die casting was used to produce plates from traditional wrought Al-Mg-Si alloys 6082 and 6004, as well as from traditional casting Al-Si-Mg alloys A356 and F357. The high Si-content of the casting alloys offer ...Read more
