Properties of sand-cast magnesium alloys. Part VI, Effect of pouring temperature and holding time / A. Couture & J.W. Meier, Physical Metallurgy Division.: M38-1/152-1965E-PDF

"The influence of pouring temperature and holding time before pouring on the mechanical properties .and chemical composition of several magnesium casting alloys has been investigated and the results, obtained on sand-cast four-bar moulds, are reported in the present report. The pouring temperature was varied from 700°C (1290°F) to 850°C (1560°F) and the holding time from 10 min to 2 hr at normal pouring temperature. Other melts were held at 700°C or 850°C for 30 min before pouring"--Abstract.
