Abstract
Strain induced and melt activated (SIMA) is used for the preparation of semi-solid billet through equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) as strain induced step in SIMA and completing melt activated step by semi-solid isothermal treatment, by which semi-solid billet with fine spherical grains can be prepared. As comparison, extruded ZW61 alloy is also remelted to the semi-solid state. Furthermore, both of the semi-solid isothermal treatment microstructures in as-cast and extruded ZW61 alloy are discussed. ECAE process is found more potential for semi-solid thixoforming for as-cast ZW61 alloy.
