Abstract: A criterion of the metastable extension of solid solubility was proposed.When the eutectic concentration arm ratio parameter of an alloy,J>10,the hypereutectic extension and the metastable solid solubility limit beyond eutectic concentration may be obtained.When J≤10, the hypoeutectic extension may be obtained.The extension parameter,C_(eq)~s/C_(cu),is directly proportional to the parameter J.Thus,it seems easy to predict the tendency of the solid solu- hility extension under rapid solidification on the basis of the eutectic phase diagram.

Key words: eutectic system, solid solubility extension, phase diagram
