Automated in situ EBSD reveals transient transformations during high-temperature treatment.
Heat treatments shape the final properties of metal components, especially in additively manufactured steels. But most of what we know comes from before-and-after snapshots. That leaves a gap: What exactly happens in between? How do new grains form, and what drives them?
To answer these questions, researchers utilized in situ heating, automated EBSD acquisition, and ultra-high-resolution SEM imaging, all on a single Tescan SEM. The result was a time-lapse of crystallographic evolution during heat treatment, offering a look into transformations that would otherwise remain hidden.
