Cast Ingot

The AUSTRONG consortium held their 4th face to face meeting at CSM in Rome, Italy on 2nd February 2023.

The final 3 alloys were cast into large ingots of 80 kg each at CSM.

The as-cast structure was analysed by ACERINOX revealing no defects and a typical microstructure for cast stainless steels.

UOULU carried out hot compression tests aimed to establish the dynamic and static restoration behaviour of the alloys.

TUBAF hot rolled the ingots into thick slab to provide material for experiments in the next period.
