Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
We report on microstructure, mechanical properties and wear resistance of Fe-Al based alloys with various alloying elements. The microstructures were examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope (EDS). Two types of alloys were prepared using vacuum arc melting; one is Fe-28Al based alloys (D03 structured) with and without alloying elements such as Mo and Zr. The other one is Fe-35Al based alloys (B2 structured) produced with same manner. For both types of alloys, equiaxed microstructures were observed by the addition of Mo, while dendritic structures were observed by the Zr addition. These microstructural features were more evinced with increasing the content of alloying elements. Concerning the mechanical properties and wear resistance, Fe-35Al based alloys with or without Mo addition superior to Fe-28Al based alloys especially in the high temperature region.
