Competition of the primary and peritectic phases in hypoperitectic Cu-Sn alloys solidified at low speed in a diffusive regime

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Daniel Wagnière, Jonas Valloton

Directional solidification experiments on hypoperitectic Cu-Sn alloys have been performed at very low velocity in a high thermal gradient to ensure planar front growth of both phases. The diameter of the sample has been reduced to 500 mu m to strongly redu ...

Intergranular penetration of liquid gold into stainless steel

Michel Rappaz, Léa Deillon, Jean-Daniel Wagnière, Denis Favez

Intergranular penetration of liquid 18 K gold into a superaustenitic stainless steel, which occurs during laser welding of these two materials, has been studied using a C-ring device which can be put under tensile stresses by a screw. It is shown that liqu ...

Au-Fe alloy solidification and solid-state transformations

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Daniel Wagnière

In order to better understand the microstructure that forms during laser welding of an 18 carat gold and an austenitic stainless steel, solidification of the Au-Fe binary analog has been studied using thermal analysis and interrupted Bridgman experiments. ...

Peritectic solidification of Cu-Sn alloys: Microstructural competition at low speed

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Daniel Wagnière, Lucien Germond

Directional solidification experiments on Cu-Sn peritectic alloys have been conducted at very low velocity in a high-thermal-gradient Bridgman furnace. The size of the samples has been reduced in order to decrease natural convection and the associated macr ...
