Abstract: A356 alloy is one of the wide used casting aluminum alloys and intense research activities of worldwide on casting process or refinement agent and procedure. In this study, we attempted refinement on Al primary phase and eutectic phase of A356 alloy by ultrasonic injection into the melts. The effect of ultrasonic injection into the melts could be summarized as follows: the morphology of the Al primary phase was refined and changed shape from dendritic to nondendritic and the eutectic phase of A356 was also refined and changed morphology from dendritic to plate shape.

Abstract: The semi-solid compression deformation behavior of the AZ91D alloy with non-dendritic structure, which was obtained under the semi-solid isothermal treatment condition of 570°C×60min, was studied by means of Gleeble-1500 thermal-mechanical simulator. When the compression strain was lower than 0.7, along with the compression strain increasing, the compression stress firstly increased rapidly, then decreased rapidly, and finally kept a constant stress level gradually. Under the condition of different deformation temperatures and deformation rates, the maximum compression stress was obtained simultaneously when the compression strain value was 0.025 approximatively. Furthermore, when the deformation rate kept a constant, the compression stress decreased along with the deformation temperature increasing, and when the deformation temperature kept a constant, the compression stress increased along with the deformation rate increasing.
