On the Al–Al11Ce3 Eutectic Transformation in Aluminum–Cerium Binary Alloys
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The L ↔ Al + Al11Ce3 technologically important eutectic transformation in Al–Ce binary alloys, containing from 5 to 20 wt.% Ce and ranging from hypo- to hypereutectic compositions, was examined along with the microstructure and properties of its solidified product. A combination of thermal analysis and metallography determined the coordinates of the eutectic point at 644.5 ± 0.6 °C and 10.6 wt.% Ce, clarifying the existing literature ambiguity. Despite the high entropy of melting of the Al11Ce3 phase, in hypoeutectic alloys the eutectic was dominated by the regular morphology of periodically arranged lamellae, typical for non-faceted systems. In the lamellar eutectic, however, the faceting of Al11Ce3 was identified at the atomic scale. In contrast, for hypereutectic compositions, the Al11Ce3 eutectic phase exhibited complex morphology, influenced by the proeutectic Al11Ce3 phase. The Al11Ce3 eutectic phase lost its coherency with Al; it was deduced that a partial coherency was present only at early stages of lamellae growth. The orientation relationships between the Al11Ce3 and Al in the eutectic structure, leading to partial coherency, were determined to be [0 0 1]Al ║ [1¯ 1 1]Al11Ce3 with (0 4 4¯)Al ║ (2¯ 0 0)Al11Ce3 and [0 1 1]Al ║ [3¯ 0 1]Al11Ce3 with (2¯ 0 0)Al ║ (0 6 0)Al11Ce3. The Al11Ce3 phase with a hardness of 350 HV and Al matrix having 35 HV in their eutectic arrangement formed in situ composite, with the former playing a role of reinforcement. However, the coarse and mostly incoherent Al11Ce3 eutectic phase provided limited strengthening and the Al–Ce alloy consisting of 100% eutectic reached at room temperature a yield stress of just about 70 MPa.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
