Abstract:This study investigated the homogenization heat treatment process and microstructural evolution of 4047 aluminum alloy. The results revealed that the homogenization process induced partial dissolution of metastable phases and modification of the fine needle‐shaped eutectic Si. Within the 4047 aluminum alloy, the fine needle‐shaped eutectic Si underwent granulation, involving two stages: crystal dissolution and granulation of broken crystals. After optimal homogenization heat treatment, the eutectic Si phase tr… Show more
