Abstract
A hypereutectic aluminum-silicon casting alloy having a refined primary silicon particle size and a modified silicon phase in the eutectic. The aluminum base alloy includes from 19% to 30% by weight of silicon and also contains 0.005% to 0.06% by weight of phosphorus, and 0.15% to 1.15% by weight of titanium. On cooling from solution temperature, the phosphorus serves as an active nucleant for the primary silicon phase, while at a lower temperature, a titanium-aluminum intermetallic compound is formed that is sheathed by the pseudoprimary .alpha.-aluminum and the sheathed particles act as a nucleant to modify the acicular silicon phase in the eutectic. The resulting alloy has primary silicon refinement coupled with eutectic silicon modification.
