Grain refinement of primary silicon in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys by different P-containing compounds

The grain refinement behavior of Si-3P, Si-25Mn-10P, and Al-10Si-2Fe-3P master alloys on hypereutectic Al-24Si alloy was studied. Microstructure analysis indicates that the P-containing compounds in the three master alloys are SiP, MnP, and AlP, respectively. The coarse flower-like primary silicon i...
