Abstract

Adopting a fluxing purification and cyclic superheating technique, Co-10 wt pct Si and Co-15 wt pct Si alloys had been undercooled to realize rapid solidification in this work. It was investigated that the solidification modes and microstructures of Co-Si alloys were deeply influenced by the undercooling of the melts. Both alloys solidified with a near-equilibrium mode in a low undercooling range; the peritectic reaction occurred between the primary phase and the remnant liquids, and it was followed by the eutectic reaction and eutectoid transformation. With the increase of undercooling, both alloys solidified with a nonequilibrium mode, and the peritectic reaction was restrained. As was analyzed, a metastable Co3Si phase was found in Co-10 wt pct Si alloy when a critical undercooling was achieved.
