Effect of rare earth elements on the segregation behavior and microstructure of super austenitic stainless steel

Super austenitic stainless steel (SASS) was prepared by non-consumable vacuum arc melting for the first time. The effects of rare earth (RE) elements on its solidification microstructure and segregation behavior were investigated. The σ pha...

Phase prediction, microstructure and high hardness of novel light-weight high entropy alloys

Guided by CALPHAD modeling, low-density and multiphase three novel High Entropy Alloys (HEAs), Al40Cu15Cr15Fe15Si15, Al65Cu5Cr5Si15Mn5Ti5 and Al60Cu10Fe10Cr5Mn5Ni5Mg5 were produced by large scale vacuum die casting. A mixture of simple and ...
