Popis: The regular pattern of evolution of TiC and TiAl3 during the remelting process of Al-Ti-C alloy wires was analyzed and the impact mechanism was discussed. The results show that: when the temperature of the remelting mass is at 730°C, with the increase of the heat preservation time of remelting, the degree of agglomeration of the original dispersed TiC will increase, and they are pushed toward crystal boundaries by α-Al during the solidification process, while TiAl3 will dissolve, aggregate, and grow. When the remelting temperature is at 1000°C, as the heat preservation time increases, not only the agglomeration degree of TiC increases significantly compared to that at 730 °C and the sizes and shapes of TiAl3 change significantly as well. The morphology of TiAl3 will change from being lump-and-short-rod-like to needle-and-flake-like. Before and after remelting, the Al-Ti-C alloys are both composed of TiAl3 and TiC, with no other phases formed.
