The composition distribution and microstructural evolution associated with the characteristic globular grain structure in semi-solid metal cast AA7075 aluminium alloy has been investigated. The primary globular grains possess uniform composition over nearly 90% of their diameter with fluctuations only occurring in the near surface of the individual grains. The inter-globular regions are solute rich...
