Abstract
A method for the refining of primary aluminum in hypoeutectic alloys by mixing at least two hypoeutectic alloys into a solid/semi-solid hypoeutectic slurry is described. The method provides control of the morphology, size, and distribution of primary Al in a hypoeutectic Al--Si casting by mixing a hypoeutectic Al--Si liquid with solid hypoeutectic Al--Si particles to impart desirable mechanical properties. The invention enables SSM molding of hypoeutiectic alloys without the need for secondary processing steps associated with other rheocasting processes.
