Abstract Effects of different melt temperatures before solidification on microstructures and mechanical properties of rapidly solidified Al-(14%-18%)Si alloy ribbons were investigated experimentally. It is found that the increase in melt temperature and/or homogenization treatment at high temperature (1200℃, 1.5 min) is favourable to the formation of highly refined and homogenized microstructure, which have good composite mechanical properties.
