Microstructure Modification and Property Enhancement of Al-0.5Fe Alloy via Equimolar La/Ce Co-Doping: Mechanisms and Composition-Dependent Effects
The effects of equimolar La/Ce co-doping (0–0.4 wt.% of each element) on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and electrical conductivity of the Al-0.5Fe (8176) conductor alloy were investigated in the as-cast, cold-drawn, and annealed (300 °C, 2 h) states. La/Ce additions refine the as-cast eutectic cells and mo...
