The paper presents a characteristic of solidification process and changes occurring in the solid state in a duplex cast steel. Theoretical chemical composition of individual phases, its changes during solidification and cooling after solidification and also changes in volume fractions of phases versus temperature have been determined. Theoretical results of Thermo-Calc analysis have been correlated with the microstructure of as-cast cast steel as well as with analysis of chemical composition of individual phases, carried out on a scanning microscope equipped with an EDS attachment. It has been shown that at the carbon content of 0.1% the enrichment of residual liquid phase with carbon results in a peritectic reaction, changing the ferritic solidification model typical for cast steels with low carbon content. In the case of solidification grain boundary areas enrichment with carbon, chromium and molybdenum there is a possibility of carbides precipitation already in the liquid state, what increases propensity for hot cracking and reduces the quality of castings produced. A correlation between theoretical composition of ferrite, austenite and M23C6 carbides, determined based on Thermo-Calc software, and their actual composition determined based on local analyses of chemical composition carried out on a scanning microscope has been shown. The volume fractions of ferrite, austenite and carbides determined using Thermo-Calc software show a strong correlation with actual fractions of those phases in the examined alloy's structure. The chemical composition of ferrite, austenite and carbides determined using Thermo-Calc software does not show any more such strong correlation with the actual chemical composition of those phases determined based on local analyses of chemical composition carried out using a scanning microscope.
