Application of Solidification Theory to Rapid Solidification Processing

Abstract

Rapid solidification allows the production of alloys with new compositions and phases and also allows production of improved alloys by control of microstructures and homogeneity. The effect of rapid solidification velocity on the micro-structure of Ag-Cu alloys is comprehensively described, mechanisms of microsegregation-free solidification are reviewed, and microstructure and phase solubility extension in rapidly solidified NiCr-Al quasibinary eutectic alloys are discussed in papers prepared for publication.
