Phase selection and microstructure evolution play important roles on processing and property control of the materials with peritectic reactions.Many interesting microstructures,such as peritectic coupled growth(PCG),discrete banding,island banding(IB) and oscillatory tree-like structure were observed in directionally solidified peritectic alloys.In recent years,a number of theoretical models have been developed for the phase selection.For example,it was believed that peritectic coupled growth is initiated by island banding and is similar to eutectic coupled growth, discrete banding is shaped by nucleation and lateral spreading of one phase onto the other phase,and island banding is formed when the nucleation rate of one phase on the other phase growth interface is higher than a critical value,and etc..But these models were developed under the assumption that the growth of the phases are controlled by diffusion only,whereas the actual experimental studies were mainly carried out in bulk metallic samples with the presence of convection.Although it has been believed that the convection effects on microstructure evolution are very important and could not be neglected,studies were seldom carried out in diffusive regime.In this paper, directional solidification of Fe-4.2Ni hypo-peritectic alloy in diffusive regime was carried out in a Bridgman furnace by placing the samples in 1 mm inner diameter thin tubes.The experimental results show that various microstructures and phase selections are obtained in the directionally solidified thin samples at the pulling rates of 15 and 35μm/s.Tree-like structure,peritectic coupled growth and the steadily solidified structure of two phases separated growth are formed at the pulling rate of 15μm/s,and the microstructures evolution is:single phaseδ→tree-like structure→γand PCG→separately growingδ/γ.At the pulling rate of 35μm/s,the main microstructure isγ-IB,and the microstructures evolution is:δ→tree-like structure→γ-IB in the center and PCG at the edge→δin the center andγ-IB at the edge.As the pulling rate increases from 15 to 35μm/s,the morphology of tree-like structure formed by the competitive growth between the nucleatedγ-phase and the parentδ-phase becomes complicated.It is found that the pulling rate plays an important role in both the formation and evolution of various microstructures.
