We publish the mechanical characteristics of 3D printed parts made of AISil0Mg alloy after our own tests.
Alloy AISil0Mg-0403 consists of aluminum alloyed with silicon with a mass fraction of up to 10%, a small amount of magnesium and iron and other minor elements. The presence of silicon in the composition makes the alloy harder and stronger than pure aluminum.
