Effect of Crucible Diameter on the Microstructure of an Al – Si Alloy Prepared by Controlled Diffusion Solidification

Puntos clave

• Microstructure changes significantly with different crucible diameters in aluminium-silicon alloy.
• The findings indicate that specific diameters can enhance material properties by improving solidification.
• Assessment using controlled diffusion solidification informs the relationship between crucible size and outcome.
• Implications point to the importance of crucible selection in maximizing alloy performance; further exploration needed.
