Na. Belov et al., EVALUATION OF 5-COMPONENT PHASE-DIAGRAMS FOR THE ANALYSIS OF PHASE-COMPOSITION IN AL-SI BASED ALLOYS, Zeitschrift fur Metallkunde, 89(9), 1998, pp. 618-622
A method to assess a five-component equilibrium phase diagram and to p
lot it on the concentration triangle is suggested. The advantages and
limitations of this method are discussed. The Al-Si-Fe-Cu-Mg phase dia
gram, including solidification reactions, phase field distribution in
the solid state and polythermal sections, is analyzed. With taking int
o account the change of equilibrium phase composition and phase fracti
ons upon cooling, the aging ability of Al-Si-Fe-Cu-Mg alloys is consid
ered.
