Abstract

In the present work, the microstructures and electrical conductivity of Al-15Si alloy in casting, extruding and solution treatment conditions were investigated. The results indicate that the extruded Al-15Si alloy has higher electrical conductivity. It has been revealed that the morphology of Si, iron element and grain boundary impact on electrical conductivity of the Al-Si alloy. With the revolution of the microstructure, these factors which lead to the changing electrical conductivity of the alloy are discussed in detail.
