Abstract

The hot tearing susceptibility of Al-6Mg-xSi (x = 0-6.0 wt.%) alloys was studied using constrained rod casting. Addition of Si content resulted in double ternary eutectic reactions and then changed the freezing range and eutectic liquid fraction greatly, which made the hot tearing susceptibility show a И-curve with the increasing of Si content. The И-curve was obviously different from the λ-curve that supported by most researchers.
