New Zinc alloys for semisolid applications
Source abstract
Abstract
A new alloy for fashion products, alternative to traditional die-cast Zamak and hot-forged brass, was designed. The attention was focused on zinc-based alloy and different chemical compositions were investigated, mainly containing aluminum and copper as alloying elements, in order to obtain a proper material also for semisolid applications. The semisolid microstructure was obtained by ultrasound treatment of the liquid metal.
