  • RAPIDLY SOLIDIFIED ALUMINUM-RARE EARTH ELEMENT ALLOY AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20180237893
    Abstract: 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.
