Abstract

The effect of grain boundary (GB) and matrix precipitates on high temperature strength was investigated in Fe3Al base alloys containing Cr, Mo and C. Tensile tests were conducted at 600°C for three types of microstructures consisting of: (I) film-like κ phase precipitates covering GBs and fine M2C particles in the matrix, (II) only fine M2C particles in the matrix and (III) no second-phase particles in the matrix. It was found that κ films on GBs are more than twice as effective as finely dispersed M2C particles for improving the proof stress.
