The rapidly solidified AlCr4.7Fe1.1Si0.3 (at.%) alloy produced at large scale by direct extrusion of gas atomised powders was investigated. Hot-extrusion yielded sound compacts and did not create any major structural changes compared to the as-atomised state. Microstructural characterisation of the as-extruded material revealed submicron scale alpha-Al grains with an embedded Al7Cr crystalline phase and traces of a nano-scale quasicrystalline Al84.6Cr15.4 Phase. The long-term thermal stability up to 300 degrees C of compacts was proven. The thermal stability of compacts was accompanied by high mechanical properties, especially high strength and Young's modulus, and creep performance up to 300 degrees C. The same material was prepared by laboratory scale extrusion of cryo-chopped melt-spun ribbons as a reference material. No major differences in the structure or properties of the industrially prepared material were observed compared to the reference material. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
