摘 要：The effect of cooling rate on the microstructure of ZA48 alloy was investigated. The alloy was prepared using a relatively simple technique, i e, rapid cooling of the melt in a steel wedge mould. The dependence of microstructure on the cooling rate （about 40 to 103 K/s） was determined by the secondary dendrite arm space size measurement, optical microscopy（OM）, and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. It is found that the matrix structure over a large cooling rate is composed of α-Al dendrite and eutectoid （α+η）, the size of α-Al dendrite decreases with increasing cooling rate. The relationship between the cooling rate and the secondary dendrite arm space size has been established. TEM shows that a large number of small and dispersed precipitations can be seen in the primary α phase of tip region. Electron diffraction pattern shows that the precipitate phase is Zn3Mg2 phase.
