Microstructure and Mechanical Property Optimization of NiTiAl-based Alloys: Directional Solidification in Novel Ceramic Crucibles

Directional solidification technique was successfully used to prepare highly reactive NiTiAl-based alloys using novel Y2O3-coated crucibles. Compared with the as-cast alloys fabricated by vacuum arc melting, the microstructure of the directionally solidified alloys was optimized and mechanical prope...
