International researcher team presents a novel microstructure design strategy for lean medium-manganese steels with optimized properties in the journal Science
Adding 30 to 50 at.% aluminum to iron results in single-phase alloys with an ordered bcc-based crystal structure, so-called B2-ordered FeAl. Within the extended composition range of this intermetallic phase, the mechanical behavior varies in a very particular way.
