Problems solved by technology

However, due to the three major problems of iron increase, oxidation and gas absorption in the aluminum alloy casting process, the existing aluminum alloy cylinder head materials generally have relatively low strength at high temperatures (the instantaneous tensile strength above 250°C is less than 200MPa, and the continuous strength Less than 100Mpa), poor casting performance, low casting pass rate, poor reusability of waste materials and slag, resulting in poor quality, perishable, high cost, and long slag treatment process of casting products including automobile engine cylinder heads
Moreover, although the traditional grades of aluminum-silicon alloys can already meet the requirements of use in terms of general performance, there are often many shortcomings when the parts are in a complex stress state.
Such as poor high temperature resistance, insufficient mechanical properties, etc.
