by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. From the measured interlamellar spacings ranging from λ = 0.18 to 0.5 µm, the solidification front velocities and the cooling rates at different positions in the as-cast samples are derived. The decisive effect of the diameter of cast rods is confirmed. For a centrifugal casting technique, the maximum cooling rate decreases from 730 to 95 K/s when the diameter increases from 2 to 5 mm. Moreover, it is revealed that the local cooling rates decrease significantly from the bottom towards the top of the rods. From the estimated cooling rates at a fixed rod diameter the centrifugal casting technique is assessed as superior to other methods applied, namely copper-mould casting and suction casting. The estimated cooling rates are compared with literature data for glass-forming alloys.
