Abstract
The paper presents results of DSC and microstructural investigations of Mg-6Al-1Ca-1Sr-0.3Mn (ACJ611) and Mg-8Al-3Ca-1Sr-0.2Mn (ACJ831) magnesium alloy in as cast condition. The microstructure of this alloy consists of aluminum in magnesium solid solution and two types of eutectic: α-Mg+Al2Ca and α-Mg+Al3Mg13Sr. The liquidus temperature of ACJ611 magnesium alloy is 613°C. The eutectic reactions L→ α-Mg+Al2Ca and L→α-Mg+Al3Mg 13Sr occurs at 510°C and 502°C temperatures, respectively. The increase of aluminum and calcium content increases the volume fraction of Al2Ca phase, decreases the liquidus temperature and slightly increases the temperature of eutectic reactions.
