摘要: Abstract The microstructure evolution and room temperature fracture toughness of as-cast directionally solidified NiAl-Cr(Fe) alloy were investigated using OM, SEM, EDS, DSC three-point bending tests. From the result, NiAl-34Cr-4Fe (at.%) is a eutectic which consists cells in different sizes. half-baked mesh-like structure observed at cell center, radial emanating thicker or longer Cr(Fe) phases embedded within NiAl matrix are near boundary. In directional solidification process, solid-liquid interface morphology has an evolutionary process planar to cellular, even dendritic with increasing withdrawal rates, center refines gradually. transverse microstructure, characteristic similar that alloy. It can be seen from longitudinal colony/cell broken (short) rods 6 μm/s, they evolve granular when rate increases further. Moreover, regardless vacuum induction melting (as-cast) solidification, possesses poor due inferior brittleness both phases. Meanwhile, crack propagation surface better understand behavior.
