Research on the Microstructure of Rapidly Solidified Alloys

Abstract

The results of research performed on rapidly solidified alloys are presented. A major breakthrough by Shechtman is reported in the first paper on Al-Mn alloys with a metallic phase (icosahedral quasicrystal) with long range of orientational order and no translational symmetry. In addition, the microstructure and phases in other rapidly solidified alloys are discussed including variations in microstructure as a function of processing conditions. Keywords: Related phases, Variations in melt spun RS microstructure, Metastable phases in Al-Rich Fe alloys, Microstructure of selected RS alloys.
