Al. Dons et al., The origin of 'anomalous' microsegregation in Al-Si foundry alloys - modelling and experimental verification, MAT SCI E A, 271(1-2), 1999, pp. 91-94
Slowly cooled Al-7 wt.% Si foundry alloys show 'anomalous' segregation of S
i in the dendrite arms, with higher concentrations in the centre of the den
drites than near the eutectic. Calculations and experiments show that this
is caused by growth of particles in the eutectic during the cooling period
after solidification is completed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All right
