The formation mechanisms of phase selection and peritectic transformation were discussed. The results show that the measured temperatures for primary phase and peritectic transformation are respectively 1042 and 957 in near-equilibrium solidification, which are smaller than the values from equilibrium phase diagram. Due to slight composition interval between the adjacent regions of peritectic phase and sluggish solute diffusion rate in solid, the average thickness of peritectic layer is merely 5 m with the presence of residual primary phase Cu 51 Zr 14. The structure of primary phase is not changed by copper mould spray casting, while peritectic transformation is suppressed effectively. With increasing cooling rate, undercooling is enhanced to activate more nucleation events, which generates the morphology transition of primary phase from directionally bundle to equiaxed-grain microstructure.
