Title: Production and fabrication of 2500-lb Nb--Ti ingots to rod

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Magn., v. MAG-11, no. 2, pp. 280-282
OSTI ID:4103794

Interest in Nb--Ti superconducting devices is exploding. This paper outlines the critical production criteria for this material. Areas discussed include ingot blending, melting, forging, extrusion, and rod reducing with emphasis on the metallurgical considerations affecting mechanical properties. Data are included relating process parameters to TEM finding as well as R.T. ductility and optical microscopy. (auth)
