Relationship Between Aluminum-Rich/Intermetallic Phases and Microhardness of a Horizontally Solidified AlSiMgFe Alloy

An experimental study with an A356-AlSiMgFe alloy was developed to evaluate the microhardness performance in the microstructure resulting of an unsteady-state horizontal solidification process. The Al-7wt%Si-0.3wt%Mg-0.15wt%Fe alloy was elaborated and directionally solidified in a water-cooled horiz...
