The Thixoforming Process Window for Al-Si-Zn Alloys Using the Differentiation Method: The Role of Si, Heating Rate and Sample Mass
The effects of Si content (X = 4 to 7 wt.%), heating rate (5 to 25 °C/min) and sample mass (20 to 200 mg) on determination of the thixoforming working window by differential scanning calorimetry DSC were analyzed for the Al-Xwt.%Si-4wt.%Zn, or simply Al<sub>X</sub>Si<sub>4</sub&...
