Time resolved in-situ small angle X-ray scattering clarifies the competition between continuous and discontinuous precipitation in U-6wt%Nb
In-situ high energy x-ray scattering experiments enable high temporal resolution investigations of precipitation kinetics; Continuous and discontinuous precipitation are competitive near the TTT nose (~525°C); The incubation time for discontinuous precipitation increases significantly at temperatures below the TTT nose; Additional evidence for the divergent interlamellar spacing was observed at 434°C and 466°C
