Al0.08Ni0.67Y0.25 is an experimental aluminum-nickel-yttrium ternary alloy, where yttrium addition to a nickel-aluminum base creates a high-entropy or strengthened intermetallic composition. This material belongs to the family of rare-earth-modified nickel aluminides, which are primarily investigated for high-temperature structural applications where conventional superalloys may be cost-prohibitive or where lower density is advantageous. The yttrium addition typically improves oxidation resistance, creep resistance, and grain refinement compared to binary Ni-Al systems, making this composition of interest for aerospace propulsion, power generation, and thermal barrier applications.
