Abstract

A bulk immiscible nanostructured Fe60Cu40 (ratio of atom) alloy is fabricated by a combustion synthesis combining rapid solidification technique that is convenient, inexpensive and capable of being scaled up for tailoring the bulk nanostructured materials. The Fe60Cu40 alloy is composed of dendrites (Fe(Cu) solid solution) with size of a few micron and matrix (Cu(Fe) solid solution) with size of about 30 nm. Owing to large superheat and rapid solidification process, there is no large-scale macroscopical separation in the Fe60Cu40 alloy.
