ABSTRACTIn recent years, interest in high temperature aluminum alloys has increased. However, nearly all the data available is for simple extrusions. This paper looks at the properties of sheet made from a rapidly solidified Al-10Fe-2.5V-2Si alloy. The sheet is made by direct forging followed by hot rolling, this is readily scalable, so allowing the production of large sheet. The room temperature strength and fracture toughness of the sheet are comparable to those of 2014-T6. The high temperature strength, specific stiffness and corrosion resistance are excellent. Recently, improved thermomechanical processing and new alloys have allowed higher strengths and fracture toughness values to be obtained.
