Especially, the stirring testing on H13 die material was used to elucidate the effect of Mn additions on the Fe concentration in the Al melting as a function of melting temperature (690 °C) and holding time (up to 32 h), which can provide an indirect sign of die soldering. On this basis, the addition of 0.6wt.%Mn into Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy was found to be beneficial for microstructure, strength and die soldering. Secondly, rheocasting of Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy without (Mn-free alloy) and with 0.6 wt.% Mn (Mn-containing alloy) was performed. The addition of 0.6wt.%Mn into Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy was found to have following effects: (i) solidification temperature of α-Al is increased and a higher (about 20 °C) rheocasting temperature is therefore needed, but no significant die soldering problem was observed even with increasing casting temperature, (ii) Mn-containing phase forms along grain boundaries and within Al matrix, which increases tensile and yield strength but decreases elongation in as-cast, T5 and T6 conditions, (iii) number density and volume fraction of pores increases, and (iv) die soldering slightly improves. This paper demonstrates that the addition of 0.6wt.%Mn into Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy is beneficial for microstructure, strength and die soldering in both gravity die casting and rheocasting conditions.",
