This study was committed to the characterization of the rheological, thermal, mechanical, and morphological properties of ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM)/silicone rubber (SR) blends. These blends are a potential new class of materials for the insulation of circuits and electrical components that actuate in environments with high heat generation. The blends were produced
Fe-Si alloys have excellent soft magnetic properties, specially around 12 at% Si. However, its
industrial application is limited because of the lack of ductility, which causes cracking during
rolling operations for the fabrication of thin sheets. The reason of the brittleness of the high silicon
alloys is a disorder/order reaction at low temperatures.
The aim of this work is to analyze the effect of the addition of Aluminum on the crystalline
structure of Fe-Si alloys. Samples with a chemical composition of Fe88Si12 and Fe87Si12Al1 (at%)
were prepared by Spray Forming. The structure was studied by means of X-ray diffraction and
Mössbauer Spectroscopy. The presence of the DO3 and α- Fe phases were observed
