Effect of Minor Er Additions on the Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of Cast Al-Cu-Mg-Ag Alloys

The microstructures and mechanical properties of novel cast Al-Cu-Mg-Ag alloys with and without minor additions of Er (0.09 and 0.2 wt %) are investigated by Vickers hardness tests, tensile tests, optical metallographic examination, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscop...
