| Abstract: | Copyright © 2021 The Authors. Investigations have been carried out to understand the correlation between Ni content and properties of HPDC cast A384 aluminium alloy in as-cast and heat-treated conditions. Depending on Ni content in the alloy, different Ni-bearing intermetallics were formed. Suitable heat treatment conditions were selected after a series of experiments to obtain optimal mechanical properties. Most of the Ni containing intermetallics found to be stable at solutionizing temperatures which have a dramatic effect on the mechanical properties of alloys after natural and artificial aging. The results showed that, after heat treatment, to achieve higher strength values lower Ni additions are favourable. |
