On the Impact of the Intermetallic Fe<sub>2</sub>Nb Laves Phase on the Mechanical Properties of Fe-6 Al-1.25 Nb-X W/Mo Fully Ferritic Light-Weight Steels

The present study aims at the development of precipitation hardening fully ferritic steels with increased aluminum and niobium content for application at elevated temperatures. The first and second material batch were alloyed with tungsten or molybdenum, respectively. To analyze the influence of the...
