Structural characterization of the samples was performed via X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry. Room-temperature mechanical properties were investigated by conducting compression and microhardness tests. Mo3Al particles precipitated in all alloys because of the limited solid solubility of Mo in the Fe-Al-based phases. The as-cast Fe50Al50-nMon alloys exhibited brittle behavior with high yield strength and limited fracture strain at room temperature. Compared with the as-cast alloys, all the heat-treated alloys except for the Fe50Al41Mo9 alloy exhibited enhanced mechanical properties at room temperature. The heat-treated Fe50Al43Mo7 alloy exhibited the highest fracture strain and compressive strength of 25.4% and 2.3 GPa, respectively.en10.1016/S1003-6326(18)64842-3info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessiron aluminidesmicrostructureorder-disorder phase transformationcompressive propertiesArticle281019701979Q1WOS:000449403900007Q1
