Dissolution of eutectic com- pounds and partial melting of the ct-Mg matrix occurred during the reheating of these materials. Spherical semisolid slurries of these materials were obtained when the reheating temperature and isothermal hold- ing time were 550℃ and 20 s, respectively. The presence of SiCp in AZ91-SiCp not only caused lower liquid fractions of semisolid slurries but also resulted in higher values of flow stress during semisolid compression tests. Both AZgl alloy and AZ91-SiCp composite exhibited better thixoforming properties at high temperatures. Segregation of SiCp did not occur during thixoforming of AZ91-SiCp composite after an isothermal holding at semisolid temperatures for 20 s.2018 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science ＆ Technology.展开更多
