Abstract
This paper deals with a novel technique of melt treatment of hyper eut ectic aluminium-silicon alloys. Various potential degassers and modify ing agents have been tried out through this technique and the results show that clean melt with good degree of degassing and modification is simultaneously produced without significant pollution problems. Compa rative microstructural features and mechanical properties under differ ent melt treatment agents are also discussed.
