This work evaluates the morphological evolution at the semisolid state of the Al-4.0wt%Si-2.5wt%Cu alloy produced by direct chill casting under electromagnetic stirring (EMS) and by one equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) pass. The ECAP emerged as a promising technique capable of reduction and homogeneous metals microstructure imposing large deformations occurs in a matrix that contains two channels of the same cross-sectional area and forms an angle of 120°. The materials were submitted to reheating treatment in condition of 60% solid fraction at treatment times of 0, 30, and 90 s. Comparing the two cases, we have the presented ECAP process that had an excellent response to the recovery and recrystallization mechanisms, and refined microstructures ideal for thixoforming were produced. Primary particle sizes of about 45 μm and grain sizes of about 75 μm and a circularity shape factor of more than 0.60 were obtained. The low silicon alloy, Al-4.0wt%Si-2.5wt%Cu, presented excellent refinement when processed via equal channel angular pressing, presenting good morphological stability at the semisolid state, without significant changes in size or shape of the solid particles. This fully globular structure is favourable for thixoforming processes.

A new process for fabrication of semisolid billets is introduced, which involves equal channel angular pressing and isothermal heating in the semisolid state. The process leads to a relatively fine globular microstructure. The microstructure evolution during isothermal treatment is studied and it is shown that dendrites breaking up has happened during equal channel angular pressing in semisolid state. The microstructural evolution during isothermal heating and the mechanism for the formation of the globular structure is tried to be understood and also modeled.
