Al-Fe-V-Si alloys were developed for use at elevated temperature and usually produced through a rapid solidification-powder metallurgy route.In this work,effort was made to produce the material via casting route.The studied alloys were cast under the condition of near-rapid cooling.The influence of Ce addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of near-rapid solidified alloys were investigated.The results indicate that the as-cast microstructure of Al-5.5Fe-1.1V-0.6Si alloy is signifi-cantly refined when the alloy was solidified under near-rapid cooling.Adding Ce results in the further refinement of intermetallic compound and the formation of an Al-V-Ce phase which replaces the primary phase Al13(Fe,V)3Si.The mechanical properties of the alloy are significantly improved by Ce addition:More than 70％ increase in tensile strength and elongation is achieved by adding 1.00 wt％ Ce to the alloy.It is concluded that near-rapid cooling and Ce addition are effective in improving mechanical properties of cast Al-5.5Fe-1.1V-0.6Si alloy.
