Effect of Microstructure and Zr Addition on the Crystallographic Orientation Relationships among Phases related to the Eutectoid Decomposition of Nb3Si in near Eutectic Nb-Si alloy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
The authors have reported in the previous study that the sluggish decomposition of Nb3Si phase is effectively accelerated by Zr addition [1]. This is obvious at lower temperature range than the nose temperature of the TTT curve. In the present study a eutectic alloy containing 1.5 % of Zr was investigated. The crystallographic orientation relationships among phases, such as eutectic Nb and product phases formed by eutectoid decomposition of Nb3Si (eutectoid Nb and Nb5Si3 phases) in the Zr-containing sample which was heat treated at 1300°C were investigated by FESEM/EBSD for further understanding of the decomposition process in alloy with a different microstructure.
