摘要
Liquid Ti-12Al-8V alloy was rapidly solidified by electromagnetic levitation and drop tube techniques. The levitation processing avoided the violent heterogeneous nucleation of primary β phase and led to an actual maximum undercooling of 212 K (0.11TL). The primary β dendrites exhibited a high growth velocity up to 14.9 m/s but subsequently transformed into basket weave structures. Drop tube experiments indicated that the final microstructure morphology was determined by the coupled influences of undercooling extent and cooling rate. If the cooling rate exceeded 3.31×103 K/s, the primary β phase was retained metastably to ambient temperature.
