Abstract
Intermetallic alloys with B2 structure and dual-phase alloys of the B2 phase and an icosahedral (i-) phase have been produced, and their mechanical properties have been investigated. Vickers hardness measurements and compression experiments have shown that the dual-phase alloys have considerably higher strength than that of the B2 single-phase alloy up to a high temperature of around 750 K. The dual-phase alloys have also exhibited much better ductility than i-single-phase alloys. One possibility to be pointed out is that we can further design a high-strength and good-ductility alloy by tuning the volume fraction, size and morphology of the i-phase precipitates.
