High-modulus iron-based alloy and a process for manufacturing the same.

摘要

A high-modulus iron-based alloy containing at least one boride dispersed in an iron or iron-alloy matrix. The boride may be one of a Group IVa element, or a complex boride of at least one Group Va element and iron. A mixture of an iron or iron-alloy powder and a powder of at least one boride containing a Group IVa or Va element is compacted and sintered to make a shaped high-modulus iron-based alloy product.
