Abstract

The hot tearing susceptibility of Mg-1Ca-xSr (x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, wt.%) alloys was investigated by CRC mold with a contraction force measurement system with a load cell and a temperature monitor. The results showed that the hot tearing susceptibility of Mg-1Ca-xSr alloys significantly improved with increasing of Sr content. Especially in Mg-1Ca-0.6Sr alloy, no visible tear was found on the casting sample. The force dropped and the final force value from the time-force-temperature curve derived from the hot tearing instruments could reflect the hot tearing susceptibility of different alloys. The mechanism of improved hot tearing resistance of Mg-1Ca-xSr alloys was clarified. In addition to susceptible temperature range and eutectic liquid fraction, it is found that the formation tendency of divorced eutectic also plays an important role on the hot tearing behavior of Mg-1Ca-xSr alloys.
