Characterization of Al Alloys Injected through Vacuum-Assisted HPDC and Influence of T6 Heat Treatment

AlSi12(Fe), AlSi10Mg(Fe), AlSi10MnMg, and AlMg4Fe2 die-casting alloys were produced by high-pressure die casting (HPDC) and vacuum-assisted high-pressure die casting (VADC) under a vacuum level of 200 mbar. The chemical composition, hardness, gas and shrinkage porosity, and mechanical properties wer...
