Abstract
Preliminary experiments and phase diagram calculations were conducted to de termine the equilibrium phase diagram of the Al-Mg2Si pseudobinary section. It was found that there is a narrow ternary phase field of Al+ Mg2Si +liqu id in the diagram. At the pseudoeutectic composition of Al- 13.9 wt-%Mg2Si, a pseudoeutectic reaction takes place between the temperatures of 583.5 an d 594 degreesC. The solubility of Mg2Si in Al at 583.5 degreesC is calculat ed as 1.91 wt-%. (C) 2001 IoM Communications Ltd.
