Many researchers have studied the eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron qualitatively. However quantative studies have not been done. The type of eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron treated with CG Alloy (Fe-Si-Mg-5Ti-Ca-Ce) was studied quantitatively through M.D.E. value (Mushy Degree of Eutectic Solidification) = $t_2/t_1)$, where $t_1$ is the difference of the eutectic solidification starting time between surface and center part of the casting sample, and $t_2$ is the time of eutectic solidification of the center part. Following results were obtained. (1) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron lies between that of spheroidal graphite and that of flake graphite cast iron but is closer to that of Flake graphite cast iron. (2) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron depends upon CV ratio. (3) The time required for eutectic solidification increases as graphite form is changed from Flake, CV. to spheroidal graphite. (4) The M.D.E. value increases as cooling rate increases.

The effects of the alloying elements and cooling rates on the formation of phosphide eutectics of compacted vermicular graphite cast irons containing copper, tin, molybdenum for producing pearlitic matrix, and also containing phosphorus and boron for increasing wear resistance, were investigated. The liquidus phosphide eutectic was found to solidify as a pseudo-binary phosphide eutectic, but with increasing of the cooling rate non-equlibrium phosphide eutectic with needle type carbide could be formed. However, the liquidus phosphide eutectic containing both phosphorus and carbide-forming boron was found to solidify always as a non-equlibrium phosphide eutectic with coarse carbide, independent from the cooling rate. It was also confirmed that the tiny isolated phase observed by SEM was gamma iron solid solution with phosphorus, silicon, molybdenum and the matrix containing these tiny islands was phosphide phase containing manganese and molybdenum. The addition of copper was found to decrease the tendency of forming ledeburitic carbides in the phosphide eutectic.

In this study, the influence of impurity element Ca, P on solidification behavior and morphology of eutectic silicon was examined by observation of microstructure and by DSC analysis. In the case of 1.3 ppm P, eutectic Si was fine and fibrous when the added amount of Ca was 500 ppm, However, the modification of eutectic Si was depressed by formation of polygonal Ca-Si compounds when the addition amount of Ca was greater than 1000 ppm. The addition of Ca 500 ppm depressed the primary and eutectic temperature. The primary and eutectic temperature were depressed with Ca 500 ppm but rather ascended when the addition amount of Ca was more than 1000 ppm. When the content of P was 17.5 ppm, eutectic Si had modified morphology with Ca addition. DAS was increased, the primary temperature was ascended and eutectic temperature was depressed with Ca added. Eutectic Si appeared as coarse flake phase and DAS was decreased with the increase of P content. The existence of P in the melt depressed the primary temperature and ascended eutectic temperature.

Eutectic and off-eutectic Al-Fe alloys were unidirectionally solidified at the solidification rate of $1{\sim}50\;mm/min$ under the temperature gradients $75{\sim}80^{\circ}C/cm$. The investigation has been carried out for the microstructural variation, phase transition, mechanical properties by means of detailed analyses of stress-strain, micro-Vickers hardness and scanning electron micrography. The thermal stability at elevated temperature has been studied on $Al-Al_6Fe$ eutectic alloy held at $600^{\circ}C$ for $0{\sim}150$ hours. When the solidification rate was less than 10mm/min, the X-ray diffraction and EDS analysis showed the presence of $Al_3Fe$ compound. As the solidification rate more than 20 mm/min, $Al-Al_3Fe$ eutectic phase was transfered into $Al-Al_6Fe$ eutectic phase. The mechanical properties of unidirectionally solidified off-eutectic Al-Fe alloy is better than those of unidirectionally solidified eutecic Al-Fe alloy Maximum ultimate tensile strength was obtained in Al-2.25% Fe alloy which was unidirectionally solidified at the solidification rate of 20 mm/min. The metastable $Al-Al_6Fe$ phase was transferred into stable $Al-Al_3Fe$ phase at $600^{\circ}C$ held for 150 hours.

It was possible to grow the $Al_{2}O_{3}$ based $Y_{3}A_{5}O_{12}(YAG),ZrO_{2}$ binary and ternary eutectic fibers using micro-pulling down method with a growing rate of 0.1~15 mm/min. While $Al_{2}O_{3}/ZrO_{2}$ showed cellular-lamellar structure, $Al_{2}O_{3}$/YAG and $Al_{2}O_{3}$/YAG/$ZrO_{2}$ternary eutectic fibers showed homogeneous Chinese script lamellar structures. The microstructures of $Al_{2}O_{3}/ZrO_{2}$ binary eutectic fibers changed with solidification rate from lamellar pattern to cellular structure. The interlamellar spacing agreed with the inverse-square-root dependance on pulling rate according to $\lambda$=$kv_p\;{-1/2}$. $Al_{2}O_{3}/ZrO_{2}$ binary eutectic fibers recorded the highest tensile strength of about 1560MPa at room temperature. $Al_2O_3/YAG/ZrO_2$ternary eutectic fiber showed excellent thermal stability to $1200^{\circ}C$ without significant decrease. The maximum strength of ternary eutectic fibers recorded were 1100MPa at $25^{\circ}C$ and 970MPa at $1200^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The solidification cracking susceptibilities of AI-Mg-Si alloy laser welds were assessed using the self-restraint tapered specimen crack test. The cracking susceptibility of 6061 and 6082 Al-Mg-Si alloy laser welds was substantially reduced when the filler wire containing high Si such as Al-12 wt.% Si (4047A) was used. The amount of eutectic was observed to affect the solidification cracking of Al-Mg-Si alloy laser welds. Abundant eutectic seems to heal the cracking and reduces the cracking susceptibility, while an initial increase in eutectic liquid leads to the increased cracking tendency.

The effects of Sc and Sr elements on the modification of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase and the castability were investigated in the Al-4wt%Mg-0.9wt%Si-0.3wt%Mn-0.15wt%Fe alloy. Measurements of the cooling curve and microstructure observations were performed to analyze the additional effects of Sc and Sr minor elements during the solidification process. A prominent effect found on the modification of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase with additions of the Sr and Sc elements. Here, a fine eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase and a decrease in the growth temperature of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase were evident with an addition of Sc element up to 0.2 wt%. The growth temperature of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase decreased and the effect on the modification of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase increased with the addition of Sr element up to 0.02 wt%. The addition of 0.02wt%Sr had the strongest effect on the modification of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase, and the resulting microstructure of the eutectic $Mg_2Si$ phase was found to have a fibrous morphology with a decreased aspect ratio and an increased modification ratio. Fluidity and shrinkage tests were conducted to evaluate the castability of the alloy. The addition of 0.02wt%Sr effectively increased the fluidity of the alloy, while an addition of Sc did not show any effect compared to when nothing was added. The maximum filling length was recorded for 0.01wt%TiB-0.02wt%Sr owing to the effect of the fine ${\alpha}$-Al grains. The macro-shrinkage ratio decreased, while the micro-shrinkage ratio increased with the addition of various eutectic modifiers. The highest ratio of micro-shrinkage was recorded for the 0.02wt%Sr condition. However, the total shrinkage ratio was nearly identical regardless of the amounts added in this study.

Al-Cu-Si 3원계 공정합금의 응고거동과 미세조직 변화를 이해하기 위해서, 금형 예열온도를 달리하여 Al-Cu-Si 3원계 공정합금의 미세조직 변화를 관찰하였다. 금형 예열온도가 500℃일 때, 초정 Si과 덴드라이트 형상의 Al2Cu상이 관찰되며, 이후 (α-Al+Al2Cu)의 2원계 공정상이 관찰된다. 금형 예열온도가 300℃일 때 미제조직은 금형 예열온도가 500℃일 때와 유사하나 (α-Al+Al2Cu+Si)의 3원계 공정상이 관찰되는 영역과 관찰되지 않는 영역이 나타난다. 금형 예열온도가 150℃인 경우에는 미세조직이 (α-Al+Al2Cu)의 2원계 공정상과 (α-Al+Al2Cu+Si)의 3원계 공정상이 관찰되는 Bimodal 구조를 나타낸다. 금형 예열온도를 달리 하였을 때 가장 큰 변화를 나타내는 상은 Si상이며, 임계냉각속도를 지나면 (α-Al+Al2Cu+Si)의 3원계 공정상이 형성되는 순간에 빠른 냉각에 의한 Si의 성장이 억제되면 Cooperative 성장을 하기 때문에 Al, Cu의 성장도 함께 억제된다. 서로 다른 합금설계 전산모사 프로그램을 통해 Al-27wt%Cu-5wt%Si의 3원계 공정 합금을 분석한 결과, 합금설계 전산모사 프로그램에 따라 결과의 차이가 발생하며, 전산모사의 신뢰성을 높이기 위해서는 실제 주조를 통한 미세조직 분석이 수반되어야 한다.

주물과 용접에서 응고 과정에서 수지상간 또는 세포상간 영역에서 최종적으로 응고하는 저융점 공정 조성의 상이 응고균열의 발생에 직접적으로 영향을 미친다. 작은 량의 공정조성의 액상 필름이 응고된 고상과 고상 사이에 존재하게 되면 이 영역에서 생성되는 불연속부는 응고균열로 남게 된다. 이러한 공정조성 액상의 유동성이 좋고 충분한 부피로 존재한다면 응력과 부피수축등으로 생성된 수지상간, 또는 세포상강 영역에서 생성된 불연속부로 용이하게 유동하여 불연속부를 충진하게 된다. 따라서 발생한 응고균열이 치유되는 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 반면에 공정조상의 상이 전혀 존재하지 않는 순금속 응고의 경우에는 최종 응고 단계에 액상 필름이 존재하지 않게 되어 고상과 고상의 인터로킹이 가능하게 되어 균열 발생 가능성이 희박하다. 따라서 응고균열 발생을 제어할 수 있는 효과적인 방법은 용탕이나 용접금속의 조성을 공정 조성에 가깝게 제어하는 것이다.
