Sažetak
This research aims to investigate Brinell hardness and tensile strength properties of Al-3,1Cu cast-alloy after T6- tempered treatment and evaluate its microstructural changes. This experiment was first performed by using an electric furnace to melt the metal alloy. The liquid metal was then poured into a rectangular metal mold, and the properties of the cast sample material were improved by using T6 heat treatment. Furthermore, the cast product was processed following acceptable tensile and impact tests standards. The results showed an increase in Brinell hardness and tensile strength after T6-Tempered treatment on the cast product. The observation of the microstructure also showed that the precipitate that grows evenly in α was finely dotted.
