%X Ni58Cr32Fe10-based alloys, such as Alloy 690 and filler metal 52 (FM-52), suffer from ductility dip cracking (DDC). It is reported that decreasing the stacking fault energy (SFE) of these materials could improve the DDC resistance of Alloy 690. In this work, the effects of alloying elements on the stacking fault energies (SFEs) of Ni58Cr32Fe10 alloys were studied using first-principle calculations. In our simulations, 2 at.% of Ni is replaced by alloy element X (X=Al, Co, Cu, Hf, Mn, Nb, Ta, Ti, V, and W). At a finite temperature, the SFEs were divided into the magnetic entropy (SFEmag) and 0 K (SFE0) contributions. Potentially, the calculated results could be used in the design of high-performance Ni58Cr32Fe10-based alloys or filler materials. View Full-Tex
