Results show that microalloying of cerium is very effective on increasing the room temperature ductility of Fe 3Al based alloys. Surface analysis by XPS demonstrates that cerium addition causes the change in the oxide chemistry and provides rapid passivation of the specimen surface. The high temperature strength and creep resistance of Fe 3Al based alloys can be significantly enhanced by alloying additions of tungsten, niobium or molybdenum, especially when combined additions of tungsten with niobium or molybdenum are used. The additions of tungsten, niobium or molybdenum also result in the significant microstructural refinement and the formation of fine precipitates which are identified as M 6C type carbide in the alloys containing tungsten.展开更多

The influence of a high magnetic field on the crystal orientation, morphology and magnetostriction of the alloys are studied. The results show that with the increase of magnetic flux density, the crystal orientation of the (Tb,Dy)Fe2 phase changed from (113) to (111) direction; the grains in the alloys tended to align along the magnetic field direction; and the magnetostriction of Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.95 alloys is remarkably improved. The change in magnetostriction of Tb0.3Dy0.TFe1.95 alloys is linked to the amount and the crystal orientation behavior of the (Tb,Dy)Fe2 phase.展开更多

The results show that the average size of Cu clusters in Fe-3%Cu-4%Ni alloy is larger than that in Fe-3%Cu alloy. The diffusion of Cu is accelerated by Ni according to the mean square displacement (MSD). Furthermore, the whole formation process of Cu-rich clusters is analyzed in detail, and it is found that the presence of Ni promotes small Cu-rich clusters to be combined into big ones. Ni atoms prefer to stay at the combination positions of small clusters energetically due to a large number of the first nearest neighbor Cu-Ni interactions, which is verified by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT).展开更多
