Effect of Crystal Structure Fineness for Charge Alloy AK6M2 on Its Flux Treatment Efficiency

  • ALUMINUM ALLOYS
  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The effect of charge billet structure and form of fluxes on structure, density, and gas content of alloy AK6M2 (Al – Si – Cu system) is studied. Alloys prepared from finely crystalline charge billet have smaller phase component sizes, lower gas content, and increased solid state density, and use of coarsely crystalline charge billets for alloy preparation necessitates an increase in flux preparation consumption in the stage of alloy preparation for casting.
