Thesis
The solidification of some metal/non-metal eutectics
- Abstract:
-
An attempt has been made in this thesis to elucidate the effects of growth velocity, temperature gradient and impurity additions on the structure of the aluminium-silicon eutectic, and in particular on the transition from an (unmodified) flaky to a (modified) fibrous morphology.
Samples of pure eutectic alloy have been unidirectionally solidified over a range of growth rates and at two temperature gradients, and specimens examined by optical, transmission electron and scanning elect...
