Description

Highlights: • Potential precipitate phases in multicomponent Fe alloys with 3sp and 3d elements are enumerated using a 4-sublattice model. • A database of thermodynamic, structural, and elastic properties of more than 1500 phases is calculated ab initio. • Mg- and Mn-rich sulfides, Fe-rich phosphides, Mn- and Ni-rich silicides and aluminides are among the most stable phases. • Mn-Ni-Si-rich precipitates such as G-phase may be additionally stabilized by vacancies and by admixture of P or Fe.
