“…10), based on three samples for each condition, showed the positive effect of the SDAS reduction on strength (YS and UTS) and particularly on ductility (e%), as also reported in (Ran et al, 2008). The lower elongations measured in the samples with 50 m SDAS are mainly due to the casting defects and to the large unmodified eutectic Si particles, with needle-like morphology shown in Fig.…”

“…The positive effect of SDAS refinement on the elongation to failure of Al-Si alloys was already reported in literature [22,23,33]. The lower and highly dispersed elongations to failure, measured in the coarse microstructure, were related to the larger and brittle intermetallic phases observed by SEM microscopy and image analysis.…”

“…[3] In addition, A356 exhibits low room temperature wear resistance as well as the presence of defects and oxide films. [4] Therefore, there have been many studies to further improve the mechanical performance of A356 alloy through additional element alloying or reinforcements for the expanded applications in industry.…”

In this study, an ultrasonic cavitation based dispersion technique was used to fabricate Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloyed with Cu and reinforced with 1 wt pct Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles, in order to investigate their influence on the mechanical properties and microstructures of Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy. The combined addition of 0.5 pct Cu with 1 pct Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles increased the yield strength, tensile strength, and ductility of the as-cast Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy, mostly due to grain refinement and modification of the eutectic Si and h-CuAl 2 phases. Moreover, Al-7Si-0.3Mg-0.5Cu-1 pct Al 2 O 3 nanocomposites after T6 heat treatment showed a significant enhancement of ductility (increased by 512 pct) and tensile strength (by 22 pct). The significant enhancement of properties is attributed to the suppression of pore formation and modification of eutectic Si phases due to the addition of Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles. However, the yield strength of the T6 heat-treated nanocomposites was limited in enhancement due to a reaction between Mg and Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles.
