Directional solidification of the MgO‐MgAl 2 O 4 eutectic yields MgO whiskers in a spinel matrix. Microstructures produced at solidification rates of 0.4 to 30.0 cm/h were studied. The interlamellar spacing agrees with the inverse‐square‐root dependence on solidification rate. Colony‐free microstructures formed in all ingots solidified at rates of <2.0 cm/h. For ingots solidified with planar growth, the orientation relation of the phases is: image
