Directionally solidified binary Mg-Al eutectic
alloy wires of approximately 5mm in diameter were produced by the
Ohno continuous casting (OCC) process and the microstructure was
examined. It was found that the wires possess obvious unidirectional
growth characteristic along its axial direction. The microstructure
consists of parallel columnar grains that resulted from the
competitive growth of equiaxed grains solidified on the head of
dummy bar. Each columnar grain comprises regular eutectic
α-Mg and β-Mg17Al2 phases, which grew along the axial direction of the wires. The morphology of the eutectic ismainly lamellar, meanwhile rod eutectic exists. The formation of rod eutectic was attributed to the ``bridging effect" caused by
incidental elements in the alloy.
