Abstract: | The effects of Ti-substitution for Fe in the Fe3Al system on the mechanical alloying process were investigated. For this purpose, blended elemental powders with the following nominal compositions (at.%): Fe75Al25, Fe70Ti5Al25, Fe65Ti10Al25, Fe60Ti15Al25, were mechanically alloyed in a high energy attritor-type ball milling system for up to 100 h. The structural evolution in these powders was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction techniques. It was found that elemental powders were progressively transformed into nanocrystalline solid solutions during mechanical alloying. The addition of Ti in the powders shortened the milling time for solid solution formation. With increasing Ti content, the grain size of the solid solutions decreased, but the lattice parameter increased. Upon heating, the milled powders were transformed into ordered (Fe,Ti)3Al intermetallic compounds in an extended range of temperature (from 350 to 500°C). Ti addition enhanced the occurrence of DO3 ordering in heated powders. |
