Microstructure and Hardness Evolution of Al8Zn7Ni3Mg Alloy after Casting at very Different Cooling Rates

In this study, we combined both a high strength Al-8%Zn-3%Mg aluminum matrix and a reinforcing contribution of Al<sub>3</sub>Ni intermetallics in Al8Zn7Ni3Mg hypereutectic alloy with a tuned microstructure via a variation of cooling rates from 0.1 K/s to 2.3 × 10<sup>5</sup>...
