Title: Influence of the - phase separation on the tensile properties of Fe-base ODS PM 2000 alloy

Journal Article · · Materials Science and Engineering A

The yield and ultimate tensile strengths of an ultrafine grained, oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) PM 2000 alloy increased during aging at 475 C. Atom probe tomography and X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the decrease in lattice parameter and the increases in the yield and ultimate tensile strengths were correlated with phase separation into Fe-rich {alpha} and Cr-enriched {alpha}{prime} phases. The lattice misfit between the emerging {alpha} and {alpha}{prime} domains and the resulting elastic strain, and the increment of the elastic modulus with aging time due to the corresponding decrease of lattice parameter during {alpha}-{alpha}{prime} phase separation, can be regarded as the main causes of hardening.
