An overview of the development of Al-Si-Alloy based material for engine applications
TLDR
In this article, the development of Al-Si alloy and its based material for engine application is reported, focusing on improving the material's fatigue limit and wear resistance, which are two important properties for engine block materials.Abstract:
The development of Al-Si alloy and its based material for engine application is reported in this paper, focusing on improving the material’s fatigue limit and wear resistance, which are two important properties for engine block materials. The paper begins with a description of the microstructure (primary and eutectic phases, intermetallics, and casting defects) of Al-Si alloy and its effects on this material’s fatigue and wear behaviors. Then, some recent techniques to enhance these two properties are discussed such as alloying, composite production, and casting.read more

Microstructure and strength of selectively laser melted AlSi10Mg
TL;DR: In this paper, columnar Al grains, about 10μm in diameter, dominate the microstructure, but some equiaxed regions are seen, where columnar grains are made up of long cells, about 500nm in width, rather than dendrites, which are separated from adjacent identical orientation long cells and from non-parallel cells at Al grain boundaries, by Al-Si eutectic.
