The solute redistribution and phase separation of liquid ternary Co-35%Cu-32.5%Pb immiscible alloy have been investigated using glass fluxing method.A bulk undercooling of 125 K was achieved and the macrosegregation pattern was characterized by a top Co-rich zone and a bottom Cu-rich zone.The average solute contents of the two separated zones decreased with the increase of undercooling,except for the solute Pb in Cu-rich zone.With the enhancement of undercooling,a morphological transition from dendrites into equaxied grains occurred to the primary(Co)phase in Co-rich zone.The solute redistribution of Cu in primary(Co)phase was found to depend upon both the undercooling and composition of Co-rich zone.Stokes migration is shown to be the main dynamic mechanism of droplet movement during liquid phase separation.
