The structure of rapidly solidified Al-Si-based alloys and its relationship to subsequent anodic film growth in near neutral and acid solutions have been investigated. Solidification of the alloys proceeds via pre-dendritic nuclei, associated with rugosity of the casting surface, from which cellular-type growth, comprised of aluminium-rich material surrounded by silicon-containing material, emanates. Observation of ultramicrotomed sections of the alloys and their anodic films reveals the local oxidation of the silicon-rich phase and its incorporation into the anodic alumina film, formed in near neutral solutions. Such incorporation occurs but resultant isolation of the silicon-rich phase is not possible for anodizing in phosphoric acid, and a three-dimensional network of the oxidized silicon-containing phase, with continuing development of porous anodic alumina, is observed.

High heat-resistant Al-Fe-V-Si and Al-Fe-V-Si-X rapidly solidified powder metallurgy (RS P/M) alloys have been developed under well-controlled high purity argon gas atmosphere. The $Al_{90.49}Fe_{6.45}V_{0.68}Si_{2.38}$ (at. %) RS P/M alloy exhibited high elevated-temperature strength exceeding 300 MPa and good ductility with elongation of 6 % at 573 K. Reduction of $H_2O$ partical pressure in P/M processing atmosphere led to improvement in mechanical properties of the powder-consolidated alloys under elevated-temperature service conditions. Ti addition to the Al-Fe-V-Si conduced to enhancement of the strength at room temperature. The tensile yeild strength and ultimate strenght were 545 MPa and 722 MPa, respectively.

Fabrication of $Mg_{95.75}Zn_1Y_3Yb_{0.25}$ bulk alloy has been performed through the consolidation of rapidly solidified ribbons. The $Mg_{95.75}Zn_1Y_3Yb_{0.25}$ bulk alloy exhibited excellent mechanical properties, high tensile yield strength of 530 MPa, and large elongation of 3 %. Microstructure of the alloy was characterized by equiaxed fine grains that consist of -Mg, long period ordered (LPO) structure phase, and $Mg_5RE$-type cubic compound. The strengthening of the alloys may be due to fine grains with LPO structure phase and $Mg_5RE$-type compound.

Mg-Zn-RE alloys had a novel lond period stacking ordered (LPO) structure. Their rapidly solidified powder metallurgy (RS P/M) alloys exhibited a combination of high strength and god ductility (tensile yield strength above 550 MPa and elongation above 5%). The LPO Mg-Zn-RE RS P/M alloys had high elevated temperature strength (tensile yield strength above 380 MPa at 473 K) and exhibited a high-strain-rate superplasticity at higher temperatures. In Japan, a national project for developing high strength LPO Mg-Zn-RE RS P/M alloys has started at 2003 for 5 years, which is founded by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) of Japan. In the national project, project targets in materials performances have been achieved. The developed LPO Mg-Zn-RE RS P/M alloys exhibited higher tensile yield strength, fatigue strength and corrosion resistance than high strength aluminum alloys of extra-super-duralumin (7075-T6).

Rapidly-solidified P/M aluminium alloys for automobile and home appliance industries were developed. Rapidly-solidification made it possible to refine microstructures and to expand the range of alloy composition. For example, Al-Si alloys containing transition metal have lower thermal expansion coefficient, more excellent wear resistance, higher strength, and better machinability than those of conventional aluminium alloys. Therefore, in Japan, the technologies on powder-extrusion and powder-forging of aluminium alloy powders are developed for fifteen years, and applied to several parts, such as cylinder liners of motor cycle engines, rotors and vanes of compressors for car air conditioner, oil pump rotor for racing car, and so on. In this presentation, applications for automobile are mentioned. In particular, cylinder liners made of particle-dispersed composites with fine alumina and graphite are in detail described.

Microstructural and corresponding hardness changes of TiFe compounds with Zr (0~6 at%) or Ce (0~3 at%) were studied using samples prepared at different solidification rates. In arc-melted (TiFe)-Zr samples, the $Fe_{23}$ $Zr_6$ and $(Ti,\;Zr)_2Fe$ phases formed in the TiFe matrix, while in the (TiFe)-Ce sample, the $CeO_2$ phase formed along the grain boundary of the TiFe matrix. As the Zr content was increased, the volume fractions of the $Fe_{23}$ $Zr_6$ and $(Ti,\;Zr)_2Fe$ phases increased, forming a network structure. Accordingly, the hardness values of the samples also increased. With a small addition of Ce of approximately 0.1 at%, the as-cast microstructure could be effectively refined, reducing the average grain boundary diameter from ${\sim}100{\mu}m$ to ${\sim}14{\mu}m$. In the rapidly solidified sample prepared through a melt-spinning method, the constituent phases were identical to those of the arc-melted samples while the grains were refined. The microstructural changes of TiFe alloys can affect the hydrogen storage ability as well as the mobility of the hydrogen atoms in the alloys.
