Abstract

We introduced a strategic “Kinetic Diffusion Multiple” (KDM) that undergoes interdiffusion annealing followed by realistic thermal treatment. The blended spectra of phases and microstructures subjected to treatment in deeply grooved composition gradients enables the microstructure and micromechanical properties of structural materials to be surveyed by high-spatially resolved micro-analysis along the composition arrays. The KDM was demonstrated as a robust high-throughput methodology that enables rapid screening of the composition-microstructure-micromechanical/properties relationships for different metallic materials. It has also proven great success at elucidating the lasting effects of alloying elements and diffusion flux on microstructure, micromechanical properties, phase transformation, and their interrelationships as a whole.
