Solidification of Eutectic Alloys: Aluminum-Silicon
-
Published:2008
Abstract
This article illustrates the equilibrium phase diagram for an aluminum-silicon system, showing the metastable extensions of liquidus and solidus lines. It describes the classification and microstructure of the aluminum-silicon eutectic. The article presents the theories of solidification and chemical modification of the aluminum-silicon eutectic.
