Title: DISPERSION STRENGTHENING OF IRON-ALUMINUM BASE ALLOYS: A FEASIBILITY STUDY

Abstract

The feasibility of improving the mechanical properties at 1700 to 1800 deg F of oxidation-resistant Fe-Al-Cr alloys by means of a refractory dispersion was explored. A literature search was conducted, preliminary experimental determinations of properties of the alloy and its oxides were carried out, and certain mathematical relations between dispersion charaeteristics and metallurgical variables were derived. The results indicate that the alloys can be strengthened sufficiently by using a dispersion with an interparticle spacing of about 2 to 3 mu . High-temperature native oxides of the Fe-Al-Cr alloy consist largely of Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and in theory would serve as a aatisfactory second phase. (auth)
