As-quenched microstructure of the Fe-24.6 at% Al-7.5 at% Ti alloy was a mixture of (A2+L2 1 ) phases. When the as-quenched alloy was aged at 1173 K for moderate times, the L2 1 domains grew considerably and B2 phase was formed at a/2h100i anti-phase boundaries (APBs) as well as phase separation from well-grown L2 1 to (B2+L2 1 Ã ) occurred basically contiguous to the APBs, where L2 1 Ã is also a L2 1 -type phase. With continued aging at 1173 K, the phase separation would proceed toward the whole well-grown L2 1 domains. This microstructural evolution has not been reported in the Fe-Al-Ti alloy systems before.

Iron aluminides are of interest for applications in power generation from fossil fuels because of excellent high temperature oxidation–corrosion resistance in aggressive environments and are potential replacements for high temperature steels. The Fe‐base composition ensures relative cheapness, while the high Al content leads to significant density reduction over commercial steels. Problems of low ductility/toughness at room temperature and poor high temperature (creep) strength, however, have prevented significant commercial use. After studies led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory (USA) from about 1980 to 2000, research has continued in Europe both as pan‐European efforts and as national efforts in countries such as the Czech Republic, France, Germany and Spain. An overview of such recent activities is presented, indicating the research strategies involved, and the progress toward making iron aluminides useful engineering materials. Recent activities have targeted microstructural refinement through novel processing to improve room temperature ductility or attempted alloying additions to improve high temperature strength. Achieving the required properties remains difficult, and has led to developments of iron aluminides as cast components and as coatings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
