Microstructures of Ni3 Al Rapidly Solidified by Hammer-Anvil Technique
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
The Hammer-Anvil technique is employed for the rapid solidification of Ni3Al in the present work. The effect of off-stoichiometry on the change in the microstructure in the quenched alloy is examined for compositions within the L12 phase field at equilibrium. It is shown that non-equilibrium phases of various morphologies appear with fine grains of Ll2 phase, which have never been reported for the compound rapidly solidified by the roll techniques. With increasing aluminum concentration and with increase in cooling rate, the latter being judged by the difference in the thickness of the quenched foil, the fraction of the non-equilibrium phases appearing is found to increase giving more complex microstructure.
