REFRACTORY ALLOY FOIL ROLLING DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. Interim Report No. 2, October 15, 1962-January 15, 1963

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4166290

The melting of three niobium-bsse alloy and two tandtalum-bsse alloy ingots by arc-casting is described. The alloys were Nb--10% W--1% Zr--0.1% C (D- 43), Nb-5% Mo--5% V--1% Zr (B-88), Nb--10% W--2 1/2% Zr (Nb-752), Ta--10% W, and Ta--8% W--2% Rf (T-111). The process consisted of hydrostatic compaction of elemental powders into electrodes followed by double consumable arc melting to yield 6-inch diameter ingots. Analytical and metallurgical testing of the ingots is described. (auth)
