Rapid Solidification of Surface Layers Melted by CW Laser

  • Chapter
Laser Surface Treatment of Metals

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 115))

Abstract

Rapid solidification processing (RSP) commonly results in departures from conventional microstructures, giving an improvement of grain refinement and chemical homogeneity (1). Fine-grained structures generally have improved strength and reduced anisotropy. Chemical homogeneity deriving from non-equilibrium-extended solutions offers opportunities for subsequent heat treatments to produce the final microstructures of desired properties.
