Evaluations of the Adsorption Polymerization Mechanisms of MgAl2O4–Ti2O3 Complex Inclusions in Steel
Research on intragranular acicular ferrite inclusions has demonstrated that high-melting-point oxide MgAl2O4 cores and composite inclusions precipitated by Ti2O3 adhesion can be used as effective nucleation parti...

MnS Precipitation Behavior of High-Sulfur Microalloyed Steel Under Sub-rapid Solidification Process
A typical high-sulfur microalloyed steel was investigated by a sub-rapid solidification process for grain refinement of the as-cast microstructure. The size and distribution characteristics of the MnS precipit...

Open AccessEffect of Zn Concentration on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Al-Mg-Si-Zn Alloys Processed by Gravity Die Casting
The microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-8.1Mg-2.6Si-(0.08 to 4.62)Zn alloys (in wt pct) have been investigated by the permanent mold casting process. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the τ-Mg32(Al...

Open AccessDifferential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermodynamic Prediction of Liquid Fraction vs Temperature for Two High-Performance Alloys for Semi-Solid Processing (Al-Si-Cu-Mg (319s) and Al-Cu-Ag (201))
There is a need to extend the application of semi-solid processing (SSP) to higher performance alloys such as 319s (Al-Si-Cu-Mg) and 201 (Al-Cu-Ag). The melting of these two alloys was investigated using diffe...
