Characterization of the Fe-6.5wt%Si Strip with Rapid Cooling Coupling Deep Supercooled Solidification

[Image: see text] The phase transition law between ordered and disordered phases, second phase reinforcement, microstructure, and mechanical properties were systematically studied in the rapid cooling coupling deep supercooled solidification process through an arc melting furnace, electromagnetic induction heating, and high-speed cooling single-roll technology. The results show that uniform nucleation and grain refinement are promoted under rapid cooling coupling deep supercooled solidification, and the phase transition from the disordered phase (A2) to the ordered phase (B2 and DO(3)) is also effectively suppressed. The decreased crystalline grain size and optimized microstructure morphology improved the plasticity and magnetic property. The Fe-6.5wt%Si steel strip at 42 m/s has a good phase composition of Fe (predominant), Fe(2)Si, and SiC. The sample showed an equiaxed ferrite crystal structure, and the saturation magnetizations were 302.5 and 356.6 emu/g in the parallel magnetic direction and the vertical magnetic direction, respectively. This phase transition behavior contributed to the exceptional magnetic property of the Fe-6.5wt%Si steel.
