2. Molding properties
2.1 Definition
Aluminium alloys have different moulding properties, depending on their composition and the forming process used.
To define these skills, a number of measurements, or observations, are made on test specimens (known as technological specimens) classified into two groups.
The first group covers the behavior of alloys during mold filling and the transition from the liquid to the solid state (§ 2.2.1 to
