Microstructural characterisation and mechanical properties of an extruded nanoquasicrystalline aluminium alloy

Abstract:

Conventional aluminium alloys rapidly lose mechanical strength above 150°C, limiting their elevated temperature usage in engineering applications. The rapidly solidified (RS) nanoquasicrystalline (NQX) Al93Fe3Cr2Ti2 alloy has the potential to be used at elevated temperatures (250-350°C) as it retains high strength at those temperatures. There have been some microstructural studies and limited work on the mechanical properties of the alloy. Howeve...
