The structures of intermetallic alloy layers formed during immersion of H13 tool steel into an aluminium die casting alloy melt have been studied by X-ray diffraction. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis on the intermetallic phases was also conducted. A thick composite layer away from the H13 steel substrate consisted of irregular intermetallics and solidified cast alloy. A thin intermetallic...
