The fragmentation of dendrites immediately following the recalescence phase of growth during the solidification of undercooled melts has been invoked to explain various rapid solidification microstructures. Despite this, little direct evidence of such a fragmentation process usually survives in the as-solidified material. We report on the rapid solidification of the single phase, congruently melting intermetallic β-Ni3Ge. During equilibrium solidification this material solidifies to the chemically ordered L12 crystal structure. Conversely, during rapid solidification, disorder trapping results in solidification to a random fcc solid solution, thereby providing a means to distinguish the rapidly solidified structures. We present results which show a range of microstructures in which the dendrite fragmentation process has been captured in progress. Results from EBSD Euler mapping reveal that dendrite fragmentation is a potential, but not particularly efficient, route to grain refinement.
