A nano-crystalline steel sheet and a method of making a nano-crystalline
steel sheet are provided. The nano-crystalline steel sheet may be
produced by supplying a liquid metallic glass forming alloy to
counter-rotating casting rolls. The liquid alloy may form partially
solidified layers on each of the casting rolls. The partially solidified
layers may then be pressed together by the counter-rotating casting rolls
to form a sheet. The twin casting roll method may provide a sufficiently
high cooling rate during solidification of the alloy to create a
nano-crystalline microstructure.
