Magnesium Die Casting

ABSTRACTContrary to limited published information on the subject, magnesium die casting alloys are shown to be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking (SCC), requiring only partial immersion in distilled water. Also described is evidence that this SCC results from a cathodic process, with perhaps hydrogen-assisted cracking and film rupture both playing roles.

In order to investigate the effects of physical melt treatment on microstructural feature and anodizing characteristics of Al-Si system casting alloys, A380 and A356 aluminum alloys were chosen and a twin-screw melt-shearing process was utilized before high pressure die casting. In order to refine and homogenize the microstructure of the diecast Al-Si alloys, the melt-shearing process parameters were controlled and T6 heat treatment was carried out.

Thermal conductivity is an important property when high heat dissipation is a requirement during the use of the cast component. This study was carried out to study the effect of heat treatment on thermal conductivity of three common aluminum die casting alloys. Measurement of thermal conductivity was done by the Hot Disk method. A substantial increase in thermal conductivity was measured as a result of heat treatment. Microstructural changes due to heat treatment was examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy.
