International Conference on
Order disorder transitions in Fe-based alloys
Boulouma Amor
ESTI of Annaba, Algeria
T
he order-disorder transition in Fe-rich Fe-Al alloys was first
reported in 1932 by Bradley and Jay. Since then, much
effort has been put into understanding the order-disorder
transformation in different systems, particularly in the Fe-Al,
Fe-Si and Fe-Al-Si systems as the typical case of order-disorder
transitions. Two ordered structures with stoichiometric
compositions- Fe (Al-Si) and Fe
3
(Al-Si), can be formed from
the bcc phase alloys and these structures exist over a wide
range of composition and temperature. The existence of the
ordered phases 1 (Fe

type
order) and phase 2 (Fe-Al and Fe-Si which have B

or Cs-Cl type
order) along the Fe

Al-Fe
3
Si section was studied by means of
various techniques in order to understand the nature and
the existence of this transitions such as high temperature
X-ray diffraction and recording the disappearance of D0
3
superlattice and reflections as a function of temperature and
composition. Further works have been carried out in this field
and led to the understanding of these type of transitions.
Speaker Biography
Boulouma Amor is an assistant professor at the ESTI (French abbreviation of College
of industrial technologies) of Annaba (Algeria) since 2006, has completed his PhD
on “Arc melted Fe-Si-Al alloys’’ in 2018 from the University of Annaba (Algeria) and
became an associate professor there. He has two published papers about Al-Fe-
Si alloys and made over 15 contributions in international conferences on different
themes such as Synthesis of advanced materials from Al-Fe-Si and Si-C alloys by
arc melting and mechanical alloying; Mechanical and magnetic properties of Fe-
Si-Al sendust alloys; Synthesis of composite materials from Al-Fe
