Abstract

The AlSi30 alloy obtained by melt spinning in the Rapid Solidification process, after fragmentation and consolidation, was subjected to plastic forming. As a result, extrusions in the form of 18 mm rods were obtained, and after forging and heat treatment (T6) were tested for selected functional properties. Mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and tribological properties were determined. Finally, a material with unconventional chemical composition was obtained, which confirmed its applicability for, among others, components operating in the transport industry, mainly pistons.
