Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0592665A1] A hypereutectic aluminum/silicon alloy powder wherein a primary crystal of silicon has a grain diameter of as minute as 10 mu m or less is produced by the atomization process which comprises preparing a melt of a hypereutectic aluminium/silicon alloy containing phosphorus and spraying the melt by means of air or an inactive gas to effect rapid cooling for solidification. The obtained alloy powder contains 12 to 50 wt% of silicon and 0.0005 to 0.1 wt% of phosphorus. This powder can provide a solidified powder with improved mechanical properties in a high yield without any limitation to the grain size. <IMAGE>
