Microstructure and mechanical properties of the L1{sub 2}/L2{sub 1} two-phase alloys in the quaternary Co-Al-Ni-Ti system

Book ·
OSTI ID:72562
An attempt is made to develop a two-phase alloy consisting of the L1{sub 2} and L2{sub 1}(Heusler) phases in the Co-Al-Ni-Ti quaternary system exhibiting a high elevated temperature strength as well as some room temperature ductility as a new class of heat resisting structural materials. The idea behind this approach is expectations for the L2{sub 1} phase to provide high elevated temperature strength, whereas the L1{sub 2} phase provides some room temperature ductility. Compositional optimization in the room temperature ductility of the L1{sub 2} (Co,Ni){sub 3}(Al,Ti) is first carried out and then, based on the result, several L1{sub 2}/L2{sub 1} two phase alloys are designed. It is found that a few to several per cent room temperature bend ductility is obtained in such two-phase alloys.
