S>The preparation and properties of oxidation-resistant niobium-base alloys which are adapted to withstand prolonged exposure at 800 deg C and above are described. The alloys consist of 55 to 80% by weight niobium, 1 to 20% aluminum, 1 to 30% chromium, and in combination therewith a total of 0 to 35% of one or more of cobalt, nickel, tungsten, and zirconium; 0 to 5% of beryllium, manganese, silicon, thorium, and vanadium, the total of this group not to exceed 15%; and one or more of boron, carbon, calcium, and cerium in the range 0 to 2%, the total not to exceed 5% of this group.
