Abstract
The solidification and phase transformation behaviors of IN625 with low C and Fe were investigated through directional solidification and quenching experiments. The primary and secondary dendrite arm spacing decreased exponentially as the solidification rate increased, demonstrating good agreement with theoretical equations. The MC carbide formed at a constant temperature gradient..... More

Abstract
The Ti-6Al-4V alloy has been widely used for structural materials due to high specific strength property, however it is difficult to cast because of high reactivity at high temperature. In this study casting characteristics and post-casting heat treatment were studied in the cast Ti alloy. The cast alloy was prepared..... More

Abstract
Martensitic 10Cr1MoW steels are widely used for high temperature components in turbine engines because they have good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Delta-ferrite can form locally in large ingots and the ferrite phase degrades the metal’s high-temperature properties. To decrease the fraction of delta-ferrite the solidification process should be controlled...... More
