| Abstract Scope |
The Au-Zn-Al system is being utilized to study phase transformation behaviors in high density metal alloys. A combined effort involving differential scanning calorimetry, dilatometry, microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and neutron diffraction were utilized to explore microstructure evolution after casting and heat treating. Microstructures often consist of multiple phases of complex morphologies observed on vastly different length scales. Depending on alloy composition, up to four phase transformations were observed after solidification. The results of the present study are combined with mechanical behavior studies and modeling efforts to improve fundamental understandings of processing high density metal alloys. |
