摘要
Microstructure and properties of bulk samples of Ni50Co23Fe2Ga25 Heusler alloy undercooled and solidified in an electromagnetic levitation facility have been studied. Microstructure characterization showed the samples to consist of a mixture of fcc phase and non-modulated tetragonal martensite phase at low undercoolings and a single phase microstructure containing only martensite at high undercooling. The fcc phase content increases with undercooling up to 170 K and then disappears at undercooling above 200 K. Hardness and magnetization correlate differently with the phase content of the sample.
