A new thermodynamic expression for Gibbs free energy difference ΔG between the under-cooled liquid and on microstructure of near-eutectic Al-13wt%Si alloy

Under cooling rates of 2 ℃/s and 10 ℃/s, the influences of B content on the microstructure of near eutectic Al-13.0wt%Si alloy have been investigated. Results showed that the addition of boron resulted in refi nement of eutectic grains, and to some extent, had an inhibiting effect on precipitation o...
