Al-Ce-Mg

High-performance and lightweight aluminum-cerium alloys are recently reported to be potential candidates for high-temperature applications [2017Sim]. Ce and many related systems have been added since TCS Al-based Alloy Database version 5 (TCAL5).

This example uses the TCS Al-based Alloy Database (TCAL).
