Abstract

The influence of iron on the the microstructure and properties of B2 NiAl has been investigated using electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, microhardness and transmission electron microscopy. The resistivity data suggest that quenched-in vacancies (1) enhance iron rearrangement at low temperatures (600–800 K) and (2) annihilate above 800 K. These effects depend strongly on Ni/Al ratio and are greatest for Ni/Al=1. It is also shown that these data correlate directly with the results obtained using the other experimental techniques.
