Abstract

Fragments of the Al-Zn-Mg + (Ni, Fe, Mn, Cr) phase diagrams are analyzed using both experimental techniques and calculation with the ThermoCalc software package. The structures of ternary eutectics are analyzed in the as-cast and annealed states. Alloy compositions with a high content of disperse eutectics forming at a moderate cooling rate are found. The intermetallic phases in eutectics are shown to be fragmented and spheroidized during homogenizing annealing before quenching.
