Study on Hypereutectic Al-Si Alloy Fabricated by Liquid-Liquid Mixing

Article Preview

Abstract:

The hypereutectic Al-20%Si alloy was fabricated by liquid-liquid mixing of Controlled Diffusion Solidification (CDS), and the mixing interface of two precursor alloys as well as the effects of pouring temperature during liquid-liquid mixing process on microstructure of size, morphology and distribution of primary silicon were studied. The results show that the size of primary phase decreases as the pouring temperature decreases, and the distribution of primary phase becomes uniform, but the morphology changes unobvious. Meanwhile, the liquid-liquid mixing interface is divided into four areas: low temperature alloy area, interface front area, fine grain area and high temperature alloy area.
