Features of heat treatment According to OST 1 90121-90 for a significant increase in mechanical properties of the alloy (σв, δ, an) casting in the ground and gravity die casting, heat treatment is performed on taimu T4 - heated to 395±5 °C (delay of 12-24 hours), heated to 420±5 °C (exposure 3-12 h), quenching in air or heated to 395±5 °C (delay of 12-24 hours), quenching by blowing air. Due to the low rate of diffusion processes as the cooling medium is usually a calm air. To improve the mechanical properties of the cooled castings may be conducted by blowing of air. Also to improve the mechanical properties (σв, σ0,2) castings in sand and chill casting is used, the heat treatment by mode T6 - heated to 395±5 °C (delay of 12-24 hours), heated to 420±5 °C (exposure 3-12 h), quenching in air or heated to 395±5 °C (delay of 12-24 hours), quenching by blowing air + Ageing at 205±5 °C (extract 9-10 h), air cooling. In this case the plastic properties decrease. A noticeable increase in the values of σв, σ0,2 is achieved in the hardening of the casting by blowing air.
