Abnormal decrease of Si particle size in 1100 °C melt-spinning Al–12.2at.%Si alloy. (a) Evolution of statistical mean size of Si particles in the investigated 800 °C and 1100 °C melt-spinning Al–Si alloys versus Si content; (b) Evolution of the XRD intensity of the Al(111) main peak of the investigated 800 °C and 1100 °C melt-spinning Al–Si alloys versus Si content.
