Abstract The Al-Cu-Mg alloy powder and its sintered body were heated to 833 K, 843 K, 853 K, 863 K, 873 K, 883 K and 893 K, respectively, and then were water-cooled to obtain their semi-solid microstructures after being held for 60 min, 50 min, 40 min, 30 min, 20 min, 10 min and 0 min, respectively. By calculating the grain size, shape factor and grain coarsening rate of the semi-solid powder and its sintered body, the grain coarsening mechanism of the powder and the dense material (with the same composition) at semi-solid state was compared and analyzed. The results show that with the increase of the semi-solid temperature and the holding time, the grain size of the powder increases. The temperature of Al-Cu-Mg alloy during semi-solid powder forming is recommended less than 883 K, and the holding time is supposed to be within 40 min. As the temperature increases, the coarsening rate of powder at a semisolid state increases, and the coarsening rate reaches 19 μm3/s at 883 K, which is much less than that of the dense material with the same composition, however. This is an important reason why the semi-solid powder forming technology can obtain fine microstructure.
