The segregation behaviors of the alloying elements and the precipitation phases were also studied. The results show that the solidification behavior of K419 alloy is complicated when compared with K418 due to the interdendritic segregation of many kinds of strong interdendritic partitioning elements in the remaining liquid at the final stage of solidification. The segregation of multiple elements in interdendritic liquid results in an extremely low solidus in K419. A long residual liquid stage is found during the solidification of K419, giving rise to reduced cohesion strength of dendrites and increased sensitivity to hot tearing. A hot tearing susceptibility coefficient（HTS） criterion is proposed based on a hot tearing sensitive model. The HTS value of K419 alloy is larger than that of K418 alloy.展开更多

The experimental results indicate thatthe hot tearing susceptibility (HTS) is affected by the content of Zn. The Zn-free base alloy shows the lowest HTS. The HTS ofMg?xZn?2Y alloys increases with increasing Zn content, reaches the maximum at 1.5% Zn, and then decreases with further Znaddition. The high HTS observed in the alloy with 1.5% Zn is attributed to its high force release rate and large force drop duringsolidification. The hot cracks of casting are initiated and propagate along the dendritic or grain boundaries. The predictions of HTS ofMg?xZn?2Y alloys using ProCAST software are in good agreement with the results obtained by experimental measurements.展开更多
