The research focused on the influence of the solution temperature on the structure of precipitation hardening multi-component hypoeutectic aluminium alloys. The AlSi8Cu3 and AlSi6Cu4 alloys were used in the study and were subjected to a thermal-derivative analysis. The chemical composition and crystallization of phases and eutectics shift the characteristic points and the corresponding temperatures to other values, which affect to, for instance, the solution temperature. The alloys were supersaturated at 475°C (according to the determined temperature (TSol) and 505°C for 1.5 hours. Aging was performed at 180°C for 5 hours. The Rockwell hardness measurement, metallographic analysis of alloys by means of light microscopy as well as chemical and phase analysis using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography were carried out on alloys. The use of computer image analysis enabled the determination of the amount of the current Al2Cu phase in the alloys before and after heat treatment.

In the metal casting industry, an improvement of component quality depends mainly on better control over the production parameters. In order to gain a better understanding of how to control the as-cast microstructure, it is important to understand the evaluation of microstructure during solidification and understanding how influence the changes of chemical concentration on this microstructure. In this research, the effect of Cu content on the microstructure and solidification parameters of Al-Si-Cu alloys has been investigated. Thus, the thermal analysis of the alloys is used to control of aluminum casting process. The effect of different Cu content on solidification parameters such: aluminum dendrites nucleation temperature (TLiq, Liquidus temperature), á+â eutectic nucleation temperature (TE(Al+Si)N), Cu-rich eutectic nucleation temperature (TAl+Cu), solidus temperature (Tsol), solidification range (ÄTs) has been studied in liquidus region. Influence of Cu content on the microstructure has been carried out. The principle observation made from this work ware that as copper concentration is increased the liquidus and solodius temperature decried. In addition to this it was observed that increase a Cu content from 1 to 4 wt % caused reduce of the secondary dendrite arm spacing and increase the grain size.
