The dependence of characteristic microstructure parameters such as primary dendrite arm spacing (lambda(1)), secondary dendrite arm spacing (lambda(2)) and dendrite tip radius (R) on the growth rate (V) and the temperature gradient (G) were determined by using a linear regression analysis. A detailed analysis of microstructure were also made and compared with the theoretical models and similar experimental works on dendritic solidification in the literature.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDendritesPb-Sb alloymicrostructuressolidificationcrystal growthArticle174544847748610.1142/S0218625X100143262-s2.0-79959537055Q3WOS:000291948200007Q4
