13Cr4Si4, α-Al12(Cr, Fe)3Si2, and Fe-rich phases (β-Al5FeSi and π-AlSiMgFe). The microstructure of the experimental alloys after adding trace element Cr is refined. With the increase of Cr content, the α-Al dendrites tend to be equiaxed, the eutectic structure area becomes narrow, and the Fe-rich phase and eutectic Si size become smaller. Al13Cr4Si4 and α-Al12(Cr, Fe)3Si2 phases are formed in the alloy eutectic structure. Adding Cr element can improve the undercooling degree of the alloy, which has a positive effect on refining the alloy structure. When the Cr content is 0.3%, the microstructure refinement and modification effect and mechanical properties of the cast alloy are the best, and the tensile strength and elongation are 182.88Mpa and 3.38%, respectively"/>
