Fe is the most detrimental impurity element in recycled Al-Si alloys due to the formation of brittle,pri-mary,Fe-containing,intermetallic particles during solidification.Their removal from the Al-Si melts e.g.by filtration can reduce the Fe content.New active filter materials can facilitate the formation of these particles for their removal and contribute to the production of high-quality,recycled Al-Si alloys.The interaction of the alloy with the filter material can lead to modification of the thermodynamics of the alloy or of the kinetics of the particle formation.Time-resolved,three-dimensional microstructural inves-tigations have been carried out to study the formation of primary intermetallic particles in Al7.1Si1.5Fe and Al7.1Si0.75Fe0.75Mn alloy melts in contact with Al2O3 and Al2O3-C filter substrate material during a melt conditioning treatment at 620 ℃.The microstructures,in particular the primary intermetallic par-ticles αc and αh,have been characterized by computed tomography(CT)and supplementary scanning electron microscopy(SEM).As expected by thermodynamics,the total volume fraction of primary par-ticles remains unchanged by the interaction with the substrate materials.However,kinetic advantages for Fe-removal efficiency can be achieved by an accelerated and preferred selective particle formation in contact with the Al2O3-C material.Furthermore,particle formation is discussed in view of its different stages:nucleation,growth,and ripening.
