Abstract

The solidification microstructure of NdxFe100-1.5xB0.5x (x=10.8%, 11.76%, 13.5%) alloys are researched at the withdraw velocity ranging from 5 μm/s to 500 μm/s under directional solidification. The results indicate that the final microstructure of three compositions alloys is all primary α-Fe phase, Nd2Fe4B phase and Nd-rich phase. With increase of withdraw velocity, primary dendrite arm spacing of primary α-Fe phase decreases, the volume fraction of primary α-Fe phase decreases and then increases, Nd2Fe14B phase increases and then decreases.
