Abstract:Over 100 years, stainless steels have been extensively used as engineering materials in many areas1-4. However, the strength-ductility trade-off1,3 and insufficient elevated-temperature strength largely hinder their processing and applications. Here, we report a novel Co-free Fe47Cr16Ni26Ti6Al5 medium-entropy stainless steel (MESS) strengthened by high-density coherent L12 nanoprecipitates (NPs). We use a thermodynamic approach to pursuing a large volume fraction of stable L12 NPs in the coarse-grained face-ce… Show more
