TANTALUM EXTRUSION PROGRAM. STATE-OF-THE-ART SURVEY. Interim Technical Report No. 1, December 2, 1960-March 2, 1961

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4051561
A survey of physical and mechanical property data and present day fabrication know-how for ingot production and extrusion practice is presented. There are a limited number of tantalum alloys for which data exists. The commercial tantalum alloy is the Ta--10%W alloy. Very little data are available on extruding tantalum alloys. The state-ofthe-art survey will be a guide in determining the necessary melting practice and initial breakdown of the Ta--10%W ingots. (auth)
