Abstract In order to refine the undissolved phases in aluminum alloy 2618 and improve their distribution state, the effect of melt holding time and double liquid mixing process as well as mold temperature on the size and distribution of insoluble phases was investigated by means of optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer. The results show that the proper increase of holding time not only changes the morphology of Al9FeNi from coarse needle to fine needle, but also increases the uniformity of Al9FeNi phase and Al7Cu2Fe phase. The double liquid mixing process could make the morphology of Al9FeNi phase in alloy 2618 changed into fine needle-like. Besides, Al9FeNi and Al7Cu2Fe phases are distributed very uniformly in the matrix of alloy 2618. After the melt of aluminum alloy 2618 is poured into metal mold at room temperature, the fine and uniform distribution of insoluble phases in alloy 2618 could be obtained due to rapid solidification. As the increase of the mold temperature, the size of the insoluble phases in the alloy increases and the aggregation occurs.
