The effect of aluminium concentration on a brittle-to-ductile transition (BDT) has been investigated in Fe–Al single crystals. The BDT temperatures in Fe-4mass%Al and Fe-8mass%Al crystals with specimen axis were measured by an instrumental falling weight impact tester, indicating that the BDT temperature in Fe-8%Al is higher than that in Fe-4%Al. Twin-twin intersections were seen on fracture surfaces in Fe-8%Al tested at low temperatures, which shows that the intersection was the origin of a brittle fracture. In order to highlight the effect of deformation twinning on the BDT behaviour, specimens with the axis were also employed to suppress the onset of deformation twinning during the impact tests. The BDT temperature in Fe-8%Al was found to be decreased by suppressing deformation twinning, which indicates that deformation twinning is a key mechanism behind increasing the BDT temperature in Fe–Al single crystals. A model to explain the increase in the BDT temperature with aluminium content is also presented.
