Abstract

Inclusions, shrinkage pores and gas pores are the major processing defects of pressure die cast AZ91 magnesium alloy. These inhomogeneities influence the mechanical properties of the material. Hence, quantitative characterization of size and arrangement of inclusions, shrinkage and gas microporosity...
