Abstract Scope |
Development of Al-Ce alloys is investigated to improve the mining economics of rare-earth elements (REE) used in clean energy technologies. Thermochemical models using the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) method aid in alloy design by predicting the phase-behavior of multi-component systems to achieve the desired chemical makeup of an alloy. We present a thermodynamic database that addresses multi-element alloys within the Al-Ce-Cu-Fe-La-Mg-Mn-Ni-Si-Zn-Zr system and investigate alloy compositions considered for fast deployment of high-volume applications within the automotive industry.
