Abstract

In this work, the effect of stirring time on the solidifed microstructures and mechanical properties of semi-solid Sn-Bi slurry was investigated by the mechanical stirring method. The results indicated that a fine round granular solidifed structure of Sn-Bi semi-solid slurry was obtained at 142 and stirred for 8 min. Compared with the Sn-Bi alloy prepared conventional die casting, the mechamical properties of semi-solid Sn-Bi alloy was improved prominently. The percentage elongation of semi-solid Sn-Bi alloy was increased 67 % compared with that of the Sn-Bi alloy prepared conventional die casting.
