Schematic two-dimensional overview of the change of interlinking paths of the 𝛼-Al phases (green arrows) with eutectic Si (blue) and intermetallic phases (orange): (a) without Sr modification, (b) with optimal modification of eutectic Si phase with intermediate amounts of Sr and (c) with overmodified Si with high amounts of Sr addition.
