Evolution of eutectic spacing during unidirectional solidification of Al-Ni alloys

Hypoeutectic Al-Ni alloys show a ductile phase α distributed with a β phase Al3Ni fragile where β serves as reinforcement of the structure of the material. The eutectic composition alloys obey the relationship: λ2.v = C, where λ is the eutectic spacing, v...
