Secondary phase increases the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum-cerium alloy

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The elastic properties of alloys are typically insensitive to changes in microstructure. Here, an as-cast Al-Ce alloy achieves a large Young’s modulus of approximately 92 GPa, due to the presence of isotropic, high symmetry secondary phase.
