Abstract:The effects of various heat treatments on the microstructure and
mechanical properties of laser beam powder bed fused AlSi10Mg were
investigated. Specimens were solutionized at three different
temperatures of 425, 475 and 525 °C followed by natural aging (T4) prior
to microstructural and mechanical characterization. In addition, the
effect of aging was studied by artificially aging (i.e., T7) some of the
solutionized specimens at 165 °C. Solutionizing at all temperatures was
observed to fully dissolve the addi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
