Establishment and Initial Operation of a Resource Facility for RSR (rapid Solidification Rate) Processed Alloys in Pilot Quantities

Abstract

The program objective was to construct and operate a rapid solidification rate (RSR) processing resource facility based on melt spinning of pilot scale quantities. It consists of a controlled-atmosphere melt spinner with a capacity of 1 lb of ferrous alloy, a 100 g capacity melt spinner (to establish experimental parameters and reduce cross-contamination), and a high-speed ribbon cutter for flake preparation. RSR processed materials were delivered to Government, industrial and academic users.
