This paper highlights the effects of the additions of two rare earth elements (Ce and Er) on microstructure and to investigate the characteristic temperatures during solidification to five modified alloy. Al-7Si alloys with xEr + xCe additions (x = 0.15, 0.25, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.75) were produced by cas...
