Unveiling the Growth Mechanism of Faceted Primary Al2Cu with Complex Morphologies During Solidification

Zongye Ding et al.

Summary: The growth characteristics and morphological development of Al2Cu intermetallic compounds during solidification were studied using synchrotron radiography and first-principle calculations, revealing the preferential growth direction of Al2Cu crystals and the mechanisms behind their formation and transition. The faceted Al2Cu clusters were found to exhibit unique features such as branch formations and partial coalescence, attributed to strain energy increase and solute redistribution during solidification.

3D morphological evolution and growth mechanism of proeutectic FeAl3 phases formed at Al/Fe interface under different cooling rates

Naifang Zhang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the three-dimensional morphologies and growth mechanisms of proeutectic FeAl3 at the Al/Fe interface under different cooling rates using synchrotron X-ray tomography. The results showed that the morphology and growth mechanism of FeAl3 crystals changed with increasing cooling rate, transitioning from faceted polygonal prism to non-faceted rods with radial dendrites in cross section. Furthermore, twinning mechanism was found to play a dominant role in the formation and growth of FeAl3 at higher cooling rates.

Synchrotron X-ray imaging and ultrafast tomography in situ study of the fragmentation and growth dynamics of dendritic microstructures in solidification under ultrasound

Zhiguo Zhang et al.

Summary: High speed synchrotron X-ray imaging and ultrafast tomography were used to study the fragmentation and growth dynamics of dendritic microstructures in an Al-15%Cu alloy under ultrasound. The results showed that efficient dendrite fragmentation occurred due to the acoustic flow, with thermal perturbation remelting plus mechanical fracture and separation being the dominant mechanism, while acoustic flow fatigue impact and phase collision effects played a minor role. Ultrasound application in the early solidification stage for just 10 s led to a significant increase in dendrite fragment number.

Intermittent nucleation and periodic growth of grains under thermo-solutal convection during directional solidification of Al-Cu alloy

Yang Tang et al.

Summary: The presence of natural convection during alloy solidification affects the nucleation and growth behaviors of grains. Understanding the impacts of thermo-solutal convection on the solidification process is crucial. Through in-situ observation of the directional solidification of Al-15 wt.% Cu alloy under different temperature gradients, it was found that solute elements exhibit periodic flow and oscillation, influencing the growth of grains.
