Abstract

The microstructure, hardness, yield stress, fracture strain, and brittle‐to‐ductile transition temperature of Fe‐Al alloys with Al contents of 12‐18 at.% Al, which are in the range of the so‐called K‐state with possible short‐range ordering reactions, and with ternary additions of carbon and silicon were studied with respect to the effects of possible impurities on the hardening of Fe‐Al alloys. It was found that perovskite‐type Fe3AlC carbide particles precipitate even in alloys with low C and Si contents; they are controlled by prior heat treatments and strongly affect the deformation behaviour.
