Titanium Nitride (TiN) Germination and Growth during Vacuum Arc Remelting of a Maraging Steel

During the processing of maraging steels, Titanium easily combines with Nitrogen to form nitride inclusions, known to be deleterious for fatigue properties of the alloy. According to thermodynamic calculations, the precipitation occurs during solidification of the vacuum arc remelted (VAR) ingot. A...
