Abstract
In this work, we intended to study the effect of heat treatments (T5 and flash T6) on blistering, mechanical properties and microstructure for different parts produced by vacuum-assisted HPDC. These parts were produced with primary and secondary aluminium alloys (AlSi10MnMg alloy and AlSi10Mg(Fe) alloy, respectively). The parts presented blisters for all combinations of temperature (between 360 °C and 520 °C) and stage times (15 and 30 min) of solution heat treatments. However, when subjected to the T5 heat treatment, blisters were no longer visible. With this heat treatment, there was an increase in yield strength of 64% for both aluminium alloys and an increase in UTS of 31% in AlSi10Mg(Fe) alloy and of 24% in AlSi10MnMg alloy, when compared to the mechanical properties in the as-cast state. However, there was a decrease in ductility. The AlSi10Mg(Fe) alloy presented a lot of contaminations (especially iron), which impaired the mechanical properties compared to the primary aluminium alloy, AlSi10MnMg.
期刊介绍：
Metals (ISSN 2075-4701) is an open access journal of related scientific research and technology development. It publishes reviews, regular research papers (articles) and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Metals provides a forum for publishing papers which advance the in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure, the properties or the functions of all kinds of metals.
