The microstructure of the Ni 47.5 Al 25 Fe 27.5 alloy was modified by adding Cr or Nb to improve its tensile properties. Increasing the Cr content increased the volume fraction of the interdendritic regions and, subsequently, increased the tensile elongation at room temperature. Additionally, adding Nb significantly improved the tensile properties of the Ni 47.03 Al 24.75 Fe 27.23 Nb 1 alloy, because the element Nb reduces the number of ␥/Ј interfaces and strengthened both the ␥ and Ј phases and the ␥/Ј interfaces. Both the as-annealed Ni 47.03 Al 24.75 Fe 27.23 Cr 1 and Ni 47.03 Al 24.75 Fe 27.23 Nb 1 alloys exhibited a tensile elongation at room temperature of over 10 pct. However, temperature strongly affected the tensile properties. The brittleness of the Ni 47.03 Al 24.75 Fe 27.23 Nb 1 alloy was effectively inhibited because of its lower temperature sensitivity at moderate temperatures.
