Complex Metallic Alloys – Microstructure Characterization

Abstract:

The recent findings related to binary and ternary structurally complex phases in selected complex metallic alloys coming under Al-Pd-Co, Al-Cu-Co, and Al-Mn-Fe systems are presented. The phases were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high-angle annular dark-field imaging, X-ray diffraction, and differential thermal analysis. There are highlighted some unusual features of phases D, U, T, and ε-family from both structural and compositional points of view.
