Squeeze Casting of Semi-Solid A356 Alloy

Abstract:

the rheo-squeeze casting (Rheo-SQC) combining the rheocasting and the SQC was developed, in which semi-solid slurry was produced by the low superheat pouring with a shearing field (LSPSF) process. The three dimensional morphology of the primary α-Al phase and the rest spacing of slurry prepared by LSPSF process have been reconstructed and visualized, and the microstructures of squeeze cast A356 alloy have been obtained. Based on the three dimensional microstructure reconstructed, their three dimensional characterizations such as solid volume fraction, equivalent diameter of the extracted primary α-Al phase were measured and calculated, and the microstructures of cross section of squeeze cast product were investigated.
