THE DEVELOPMENT OF IMPROVED VANADIUM-BASE ALLOYS FOR USE AT TEMPERATURES UP TO 1800 F

Journal Article · · J. Less-Common Metals

Vanadium-base sheet alloys containing titanium and/or niobium, molybdenum, tantalum, and tungsten exhibit excellent strength at elevated temperatures and weldability. Tensile and creep properties were determined in inert atmospheres. These alloys with outstanding cold fabricability are superior to the best nickel- and cobalt-base sheet materials on a density-corrected tensile strength basis at temperatures above 1500 f F. (auth)
