Microstructural change in gravity cast Mg−Ni alloys with Ni contents
2004
The effects of Ni content on the microstructures of gravity cast Mg−Ni alloys were examined. Different shapes of primary solid particles and microstructures of the eutectic matrix were observed with varying Ni content. The eutectic matrix in the hypoeutectic alloy consisted of rod-like Mg2Ni phase with a small amount of α-Mg phase. The eutectic matrix in the near-eutectic and hypereutectic alloys consisted of eutectic cells oriented in different directions. A transition of lamellae to fiber occurred. The formation of cellular structure and transition of lamellae to fiber resulted from two-phase instability in the coupled region induced by constitutional undercooling.
