NIOBIUM-BASE ALLOYS

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4048171
Preparation and properties of niobium alloys which exhibit unusual strength and oxidation resistance under extreme high-temperature service conditions are discussed. The niobium-molybdenum alloys contain varying amounts of one or more of the elements of the group comprising iron, chromium, cobalt, nickel, tungsten, and zirconium plus the normal impurities. The alloys contain at least 55% by weight of niobium, 1 to 20% molybdenum, 1 to 30% of the above mentioned elements, 0 to 5% of beryllium, manganese, silicon, thorium, or vanadium, and 0 to 2% boron, carbon, calcium or cerium plus the normal impurities.
