| Abstract: | Quasicrystals are ordered phases without periodicity. They are often found in aluminium and other alloys. They can appear in different sizes. Therefore, several metallographic and characterisation techniques are required to fully determine their shape, size, crystallography, and chemical composition. This review paper gives special attention to identifying quasicrystals in aluminium alloys using classical metallographic techniques, such as etching, deep etching, and particle extraction, which allow the investigation of larger areas by light and scanning electron microscope, giving additional information by combining with complementary high-resolution techniques. |
