Transcribed Image Text:6.8
Suppose that a cast Al-1 wt% Si alloy, contains equilibrium Si
particles 1 µm in diameter. This alloy is to be heat treated by first
putting all of the Si particles back into solution.
(a) Draw a set of schematic curves indicating what will happen during
this process.
Temperature °C
(b) Indicate the initial conditions, the final conditions (once a new
equilibrium is reached) and the boundary conditions during dis-
solution.
(c) Estimate how long the alloy should be held at 550°C so as to
ensure that all of the Si is dissolved.
