Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of as-cast Al–Mg–Si alloy induced by Fe addition

This study systematically investigates the role of Fe content in governing the microstructure and mechanical properties of recycled Al–Mg–Si alloys. Through multiscale characterization (SEM, TEM, DSC, and tensile testing), we reveal that Fe-rich intermetallic compounds (IMCs) transition from needle-...
