DEVELOP PROCESS FOR AND ARC CAST 25 TO 50 POUND INGOTS OF TIN REDUCED MOLYBDENUM. Progress Report for the Period March 31--April 30, 1961

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4039779
One 100-lb molybdenum ingot was melted and preliminary testing was conducted. The metal exhibited roomtemperature ductility, had extremely good grain-boundary strength, and small specimens could be forged and roiled to sheet directly from the as-cast material. The forgings exhibited good metal flow and excellent quality. The most striking feature of the metal was the excellent grainboundary strength which presumably accounted for the room-temperature ductility and increased ultimate strength. (auth)
