Zusammenfassung: | Structures obtained during Zn-Cu-Ti single crystal growth by the Bridgman method were investigated. The alloys of composition Zn-Cu0.1wt.%-Ti0.1wt.% were used for single crystals growth, which were produced at rate in the range of 1.8mm/h to 16mm/h.
The Zn-Cu-Ti alloys were characterized by multiphase structure; in the solute-hardened matrix by Cu atoms exists a needle-shaped intermetallic phase Zn16Ti. The strong anisotropy of the hexagonal structure gives a significant influence on a second phase distribution in the matrix volume. In the range of the low growth rates (from 1.8mm/h to 10mm/h) oscillatory structures were observed. That effect vanished at the growth rates higher than 10mm/h. The observed oscillatory structures were characterized by existing periodic layers rich in the intermetallic phase of Zn16Ti interlaid with pure matrix (alpha phase Zn with Cu solute). |
