Abstract Scope |
Erbium (Er) and Europium (Eu) was added to 201 and 206 alloys at different ratios. Cast parts were heat treated at T7 condition and the tensile properties were compared with and without heat treatment. In 206 alloy, as the Eu and Er content of the alloy was increased, UTS and YS was decreased while as conditions revealed higher elongation at fracture than the heat treated samples. On the other hand, in 201 alloy, UTS and YS was decreased slightly with increased Er and Eu content while elongation at fracture was decreased significantly. SEM studies showed that this effect was associated with intermetallic phase in the form of fish-bone morphology that decreased the toughness of the alloy. |
