简介 |
Disclosed herein are embodiments of rapidly solidified alloys that comprise aluminum, a rare earth element, one or more additional alloying elements, such as aluminum, and an optional additive component. The alloy embodiments exhibit a unique microstructure as compared to microstructures obtained from other alloys that are not rapidly cooled. The disclosed aluminum-rare earth element alloys also exhibit improved mechanical properties without the need for post-processing heat treatments and further do not exhibit substantial coarsening. |
