Problems solved by technology

Although cast aluminum-silicon alloys have good casting fluidity and mechanical processing properties, the commonly used cast aluminum-silicon alloys still have problems of low strength, poor plasticity and insufficient fracture toughness. For example, A356 cast aluminum-silicon alloys in T6 The tensile strength in the heat treatment state is usually lower than 280MPa, the yield strength is lower than 240MPa, and the elongation is lower than 7%. The strength and plasticity cannot meet the requirements of most automotive structural parts.
[0004] Therefore, the existing cast aluminum-silicon alloy and its preparation method still need to be improved and developed.
