Rapid solidification and consolidation P/M technologies have facilitated the development of a family of Al-Fe-V-Si alloys exhibiting a combination of good room temperature ductility and fracture toughness with excellent elevated-temperature strength. Also obtained are high moduli and excellent thermal stability and corrosion resistance, with sufficiently high fabricability to allow economic production of sheet, extrusion, and forging feedstocks applicable to a wide range of aerospace applications; these applications encompass aircraft primary structures, gas turbine compressors, and missile airframes. 10 references.
