| Abstract: | The conventional gun melt quenching
technique was slightly modified to facilitate rapid solidification of highly
reactive alloys like Cu-Mg. This involved the use of molten salt flux for
melting and quenching the alloy. The cooling rate achieved was estimated to be
in the range of 105-106 K/s. A Cu-28 at% Mg alloy was
successfully melt-quenched by this method. The melt-quenched foils had a
lustrous golden yellow colour. Formation of metastable tetragonal and amorphous
phases was determined by XRD and TEM. |
