Implication

Randomized trial develops new aluminium alloys with enhanced mechanical properties for high-pressure die casting, suggesting significant improvements in performance.

Key Points

This research aims to develop new multicomponent aluminium alloys based on the Al-Mg-Si system for high-performance applications.
Designed and produced six new aluminium alloys by varying alloying additions of Cu, Zn, Ca, and TiB.
Applied thermodynamic modelling using FactSage for phase formation prediction.
Characterized alloys through various techniques including X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy.
Developed alloys showed up to 70% higher hardness and yield strength compared to AlSi9Cu3 HPDC.
At 200 °C, yields 60% improvement in yield strength and 50% in ultimate tensile strength.
Alloy Al80Mg10Si5Cu5 exhibited ultimate tensile strength of 316 MPa with minimal reduction at high temperature.
