Achieving ultra-high mechanical properties in metastable Co-free medium entropy alloy via hierarchically heterogeneous microstructure
JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY(2024)
Abstract
A new metastable dual-phase Fe59Cr13Ni18Al10 medium entropy alloy (MEA) with hierarchically heteroge-neous microstructure from micro-to nano-scale was designed in this work. Partially recrystallized FCC phase and lots of NiAl-rich B2 precipitates are obtained by annealing and aging treatment. The yield strength of the MEA at room temperature (298 K) and liquid nitrogen temperature (77 K) increased from-910 MPa and-1250 MPa in the annealed state, respectively, to-1145 MPa and-1520 MPa in the aged state, while the uniform elongation maintained more than 15%. The excellent mechanical properties of the MEA both at 298 and 77 K are attributed to the co-activation of multiple strengthening mech-anisms, including fine grain, dislocation, precipitation, transformation-induced plasticity, stacking faults, and nano-twins.
