Abstract  The apparent viscosities of semi--solid AlSi6Mg2 alloy at steady state were investigated using a Couette type viscometer. The results show that the apparent viscosities of semi--solid AlSi6Mg2 alloy at steady state increase with increasing solid fraction, but decline with increasing shearing rate. When the solid fraction reaches a critical value, the apparent viscosities increase rapidly and with the increase in shearing rate, the critical fraction value becomes bigger. Based on the experimental results, an empirical equation that shows the effect of solid fraction and shearing rate on the apparent viscosities was built as the following,a =78.6 exp(6.17 fs)-1.36。
Key words:  aluminum alloy      semi--solid      rheological behavior
