Effects of minor Y, Zr and Er addition on microstructure and properties of Al-5Cu-0.4Mn alloy

The effect of different contents of Y, Zr and Er on microstructure and properties of Al-5Cu-0.4Mn alloy was investigated. T6 heat treatment, OM, SEM and EDS methods were applied to the alloy. The results showed that fluidity and elongation of alloy adding Y, Zr and Er were improved, while with the i...
