Abstract

The microstructure and the mechanical property was investigated using by Mg-Al-Ca castings which is an automotive engine component with different Ca contents. With increasing of Ca content, 0.2%P.S. was increased and elongation was decreased. It was thought to be an cause that the amount of γ-(Mg, Al)2Ca phase was increased. With such change of microstructure, heat resistance was also improved.
