Abstract
A new metastable dual-phase Fe59Cr13Ni18Al1o medium entropy alloy(MEA)with hierarchically heteroge-neous microstructure from micro-to nano-scale was designed in this work.Partially recrystallized FCC phase and lots of NiAl-rich B2 precipitates are obtained by annealing and aging treatment.The yield strength of the MEA at room temperature(298 K)and liquid nitrogen temperature(77 K)increased from~910 MPa and~1250 MPa in the annealed state,respectively,to~1145 MPa and~1520 MPa in the aged state,while the uniform elongation maintained more than 15%.The excellent mechanical properties of the MEA both at 298 and 77 K are attributed to the co-activation of multiple strengthening mech-anisms,including fine grain,dislocation,precipitation,transformation-induced plasticity,stacking faults,and nano-twins.
