Aluminum - Melting Points of Binary Eutectic Alloys
Al - Aluminum - binary eutectic alloys and their melting points.
The melting point of an alloy of two (binary) or more metals depends on the relative proportions of the ingredients.
- an eutectic mixture is the mixture where the melting point is as low as possible
Binary eutectic Aluminum - Al - alloys, with composition and melting points are indicated below:
| Alloy Component | Weight of Alloy Component (%) | Melting Point | |
|---|---|---|---|
| K | oF | ||
| Au - Gold (Aurum) | 90 | 842 | 1056 |
| Ca - Calcium | 73 | 818 | 1013 |
| Cd - Cadmium | 90 | 1650 | 2511 |
