Which consequence results when rapid cooling triggers uncontrolled nucleation in liquid steel?

💡 Explanation

Rapid cooling enhances the driving force for solidification, thus promoting dendritic microstructure formation because solidification progresses faster than diffusion. Therefore, dendrites form, rather than uniform, equiaxed grains, because diffusion is too slow.
