Abstract

Semi-solid 2024 Al alloys with strontium (Sr) addition of 0.15 wt% and 0.3 wt% were prepared by Gas Induced Semi-Solid (GISS) process. Effect of Sr addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the semi-solid 2024 alloy was investigated. It was found that the tensile strength and % elongation of the T6 heat treated alloy with the Sr addition were higher than those without Sr addition owing to the reduction of Mg2Si phase formation. The semi-solid 2024 Al alloy with 0.15%Sr addition obtained the average highest tensile strength of 382 MPa and elongation of 6.45%.
