Formation and processing of rheocast microstructures

(cont.) given slurry was proposed. The fluidity of rheocast A357 alloy slurries was contrasted with the fluidity of superheated liquid. Rheocast slurries with 37% solid particles,were found to flow about half as far as fully liquid alloy superheated 20⁰C above the liquidus.
