(Heated to 6 ° C for 6 hours). In the artificial aging treatment after natural aging, heating was performed at 250 ° C. for 16 hours. As shown in FIG. 1, in comparison with the case where natural aging is not performed (natural aging time is 0 hour), in a casting cast with a mold (permanent mold), when natural aging treatment is performed for 24 hours, a sand mold (sand mold) is used. It can be seen that in the castings cast in step 1, a high elongation is obtained when subjected to natural aging treatment for 48 hours. At this time, the tensile strength and proof stress are not impaired.
