THE STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF ORIENTED COMPOUND EUTECTICS.

Abstract

The study involved (1) the preparation of unidirectionally solidified eutectic ingots of MnO-MnS, FeO-FeS, NaC1-NaF, NaBr-NaF and LiF-NaF, (2) the determination of the crystallographic orientation of each phase with respect to the direction of solidification and the planar interface between the phases, (3) the measurement of the thermal expansion of the MnO-MnS eutectic and the MnS phase, (4) the determination of the slip modes, fracture characteristics and directional indentation hardness of the MnO-MnS eutectic and the MnO phase, and (5) the comparison of the measured properties of the lamellar MnO-MnS eutectic with those of the MnO and MnS phases.
