Heterogeneous nucleation of solidification of metals and alloys

Abstract:

The main aim of this work is to investigate heterogeneous nucleation of solidification of metals and alloys by a combination of differential scanning calorimetry and transmission electron microscopy using a newly modified entrained particle technique. Attention is focused on investigating (a) heterogeneous nucleation of Cd, In and Pb particle solidification by Al in rapidly solidified Al-Cd, Al-In and Al-Pb binary alloys; (b) effects of various ternary additions such as Mg, Ge and Si on he...
