Characterization of the Density and Spatial Distribution of Dispersoids in Al-Mg-Si Alloys

Al-Mg-Si alloys often contain small additions of, for example, Mn or Cr, to form dispersoids, which may act as nucleation sites for Mg2Si particles after homogenization. The purpose of adding Mn and Cr is to ensure a high density of uniformly distributed small β’-particles, which...
