Abstract
During the strip casting of steels, solidification occurs in a matter of
milliseconds, and complete cooling to room temperature is complete in
under 1 minute. Consequently, many steel alloys are meta-stable when
processed by this method. These super-saturated alloys show unusual
nano-scale behaviours such as room temperature clustering, nano-precipitation,
and exhibit rather complex phase transformation
characteristics during austenite decomposition. This presentation will
demonstrate how advanced characterisation techniques such as atom
probe tomography and small-angle neutron scattering have enabled
better understanding of these phenomena.
