The undercooled, by glass fluxing method, Cu-22%Sn peritectic alloy was composed of a（Cu） and δ（Cu41Snll） phases. If rapidly solidified in a drop tube, the alloy phase constitution changed from α（Cu） and δ（Cu41Sn11） phases into a single supersaturated （Cu） phase with the reducing of droplet diameter, and the maximum solubility of Sn in （Cu） phase extended to 22%. The Cu-5%Sn-5%Ni-5%Ag quaternary alloy was composed of （Cu） and （Ag） phases under the containerless processing condition in a drop tube, and the solute microsegregation of （Cu） phase was obvious. When the Cu-5%Sn-5%Ni-5%Ag quaternary alloy was solidified by melt spinning method, microsegregation was suppressed and solute trapping occurred. The experimental results show that the microstructures of primary （Cu） phase in the two alloys transfer from coarse dendrites into equiaxed grains with the increase of cooling rate and undercooling, which is accompanied by the grain refinement effect.展开更多
