This paper reports that transmission electron microscopy of iron-rich, B2-structured, FeAl alloys which had been compressed at room temperature revealed the presence of (001) dislocations, in addition to APB-coupled (111) dislocations which are normally observed at room temperature. It appears that the (001) dislocations form through the interaction of the (111) dislocations. This reaction to produce (001) dislocations is outlined and shown to be energetically favorable. The production of these (001) dislocations on (100) planes is suggested to be a cause of transgranular cleavage on (100) in B2 alloys deforming by (111) slip.
