Minor Scandium - Zirconium Impacts on Aluminum-6 Magnesium Cast Alloys
Abstract: Minor additions of scandium and zirconium alloy can not only improve strength and fracture toughness of the Al–6 Mg alloys, but also transform the age hardening characteristics for structural applications. If this impact were substantial, the enriched Al–6 Mg castings could be a potent material for futuristic transport sector, looking to higher specific strength and abundant availability in Indian/ global scenario. This work reports the effect of scandium and zirconium …
